I have CFMX running on RedHat 8 with updater 2 on a Dual P2-400/512Meg RAM, the latest 
kernel from kernel.org, updated to all the latest RPMS from RedHat (except what I had 
to whack... see below) and this is what it took to get it working:



1 each stick dynamite!!!  ;-)

[[ Okay, just kidding, but it was quite an involved process...]]



I needed mod_perl / PHP extensions as well, and I needed SNMP extensions to the PHP, 
so this is what I did:



uninstall any RPM having to do with:

Apache

PHP

SNMP

PostgreSQL (I like PostgreSQL!)

MySQL (PHP-Nuke likes MySQL)



and I downloaded the latest sources for each of those packages, except PostgreSQL so I 
didn't have to convert the databases...



Compile & install PostgreSQL & MySQL -> Be warned that MySQL sticks it's libraries in 
non-standard places, so you'll either have to find 'em & move 'em by hand, or make an 
./include subdir in the MySQL install directory & modify /etc/ld.so.conf...



Compile & install SNMP



Compile & Install Apache (I have 2.0.43 running)



Compile & install PHP -- this was a bear. This is the package that needs *all* the 
libraries mentioned above... and I had to make a small VersionInfo change to the 
./ext/snmp/snmp.c code due to a small bug... email me for more info if interested...

Now that that's finally done & over with, you'll need to install CFMX - Don't, and I 
mean *don't* install it to use Apache! This will b0rk up everything you do with CFMX, 
and you'll have to start from scratch. Install CFMX with the internal-only web 
support; it's default is port 8500, IIRC. Make sure CFMX is running & serving up .cfm 
pages correctly in the ./CFIDE/administrator directories (logging into the 
administrator is a good way to make sure) *before* you install Updater2. Once it's 
serving pages internally fine, shut down CFMX & install Updater2, run the Apache 
config-file script (It may need some tweaking for directory locations; or modify your 
httpd.conf file by hand for CFMX if you know how), then start Apache, then start CFMX.



Yea, it's a pain, and it was a nasty 4 days out of my life... but at least it worked.

The server itself seems rock stable now, but it doesn't have a heavy CF load to it 
(especially since PostgreSQL doesn't come standard anymore, so a lot of the .cfm pages 
aren't actually serving data yet), so I can't comment on heavy-load stability....



Anywho, hope this helps someone out there...



Laterz,
