Based on your stack trace I'm guessing that you are running a daisy-1.4 (or 
older?) which still used openjms.  The instructions you found in the 
documentation were for daisy 2.0 and 1.5 (apparently I still have to create a 
variant for the 1.5 documentation.)  
If you want to run parallel instances of an older daisy then I think the only 
way to do this is to make copies of the whole daisy directory.  You might be 
able to use the instructions for 1.5&2.0 to have an idea of what you might 
have to change.  Basically you have to change the database configuration, and 
all ports daisy listens to.  The biggest difference would probably be in the 
jms configuration.  The openjms configuration is found in 
<daisy_home>/openjms/conf if I recall correctly but what exactly needs 
changing I'd have to lookup and try for myself.
