Jesse I can't let that go. Are you calling the MM CFMX Java code a kludge -- it runs on Mac OS X, untouched. The only modifications are replacement of the coldfusion shell script with one that doesn't use a Intel C++ program to start and stop CFMX. You must also change a few environment variables and parameters so that CFMX uses the Mac OS X JVM/JRE -- instead of the Intel-specific one installed as part of the CFMX installation Finally, 3rd-party jdbc drivers must be placed in where Mac's Java can find them If the truth were told, MM would have a simpler, faster install on Mac OS X -- they would not need to install the JVM/JRE or even a Web Server -- those things come with every Mac OS X installation.
