Thanks Dave, that hit the nail right on the head. Especially for a production system I want to reduce the overhead as much as possible. Danke. I should mention that I did get the install to work. In case anyone else finds it useful here are the instructions I posted on the CF forums: RedHat 8.0 Apache 1.3.28 (compiled from source; minimal install... disabled mod_imap and mod_userdir) First I installed CFMX 6.1. This is all pretty standard. I changed the install path to /usr/local/cfmx-6.1 so don't be surprised if you see it referenced in the commands below. I selected the built-in web server and let the install complete. Execute the these commands cd /usr/local/cfmx-6.1/bin/connectors cp apache_connector.sh apache_connector.sh.default Then open apache_connector.sh with your text editor of choice. You'll see this string near the bottom of the file: $JAVA_EXECUTABLE -jar $CF_DIR/runtime/lib/wsconfig.jar \ -ws apache \ -dir /usr/local/apache2/conf \ -bin /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd \ -script /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl \ -coldfusion -v Replace it with this: $JAVA_EXECUTABLE -DWSConfig.redhat-release=7 -jar $CF_DIR/runtime/lib/wsconfig.jar \ -ws apache \ -dir /usr/local/apache/conf \ -bin /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd \ -script /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl \ -coldfusion -v This assumes that you installed apache to /usr/local/apache. Exit your text editor and run: ./apache_connector.sh The install should run without incident. Your httpd.conf file will be affected in the following ways: (1) This block of text is added: LoadModule jrun_module /usr/local/cfmx-6.1/runtime/lib/wsconfig/2/mod_jrun.so <IfModule mod_jrun.c> JRunConfig Verbose false JRunConfig Apialloc false JRunConfig Ssl false JRunConfig Ignoresuffixmap false JRunConfig Serverstore /usr/local/cfmx-6.1/runtime/lib/wsconfig/2/jrunserver.store JRunConfig Bootstrap 127.0.0.1:51010 #JRunConfig Errorurl <optionally redirect to this URL on errors> AddHandler jrun-handler .jsp .jws .cfm .cfml .cfc </IfModule> (2) Your directory index is modified: <IfModule mod_dir.c> DirectoryIndex index.html index.cfm </IfModule> That's it. All I did was add two soft links in my Apache htdocs dir as follows: cd /usr/local/apache/htdocs ln -s /usr/local/cfmx-6.1/wwwroot/CFIDE . ln -s CFIDE cfide Then I can access the CF Administrator via Apache and everything seems to work fine. Let me know if that helps. -Cliff Meyers cliff at cliffmeyers dot com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=i:14:3326 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:14 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:14 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.14 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm
