Correct. You need JRun4 for Mac OS X installed - or Tomcat - before you can install CFMX for J2EE. > doesn't even appear to be an install program, instead looking like a > jar file, so I'm COMPLETELY lost there, but one mountain at a time) Is CFMX for J2EE is a jar file, correct. When you double-click it, it will run and unpack itself. You take the result of that and install it on top of JRun. > setting up Jrun hard?

Two things: (1) Both JRun 4 and CFMX are server software and the Mac environment is viewed as a Unix platform so the installation has much more command-line work than you'd be used to on either an old Mac (OS 9) or a Windows machine (2) I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to read the installation notes several times and then follow the instructions to the letter if you are not familiar with this sort of stuff. I've got two instances of CFMX running on top of my JRun 4 install and I have three instances of CFMX running on top of Tomcat - all on my PowerBook G4. But you will get awfully familiar with the Terminal application during this exercise!
