Dave Actually, I have access to a friend's Xserve -- and CFMFJ2EE and JRun run quite well on it -- at least its an easy install. Xserve Server software comes with Apache & Tomcat standard and MySQL as an install option, so there are several setup tasks you don't need to mess with.
JRun is a double click -- CFMXJ2EE is a little more difficult: CLI Decompress (install) multi-step deploy I don't have the tools or the expertise to run comprehensive tests or to compare it with other servers -- but it is quite nice! (this from a Mac bigot). Anyway, one of the first things I did was to use OS X Software Update to install Java 1.4.1 -- went flawlessly!. But neither JRun nor CFMXJ2EE would take advantage of Java 1.4.1. Note: Apple has Java 1.4.1 setup so that you can install it "along side" Java 1.3.1 -- so any programs that specify 1.3.1 still run. I am not a server-side guy, but the Xserver environment is every bit as user-friendly as a standard OS X environment -- and that is quite easy. If we can get some resolution on the 1.4.1 issue, I think it will be a winner! Dick P.S. While not supported on Xserve, any valid CFMXJ2EE for JRun license is accepted on the Mac -- so you can get the full version operational On Tuesday, March 25, 2003, at 07:02 AM, David Fafard wrote: > Speaking of this... > How would CFMX JRUN perform on an Apple XServe? > I need to add a ColdFusion server and am interested in knowing > the performance metrics compared to say a Win2k box or Linux box. > > Thanks, > Dave > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Joshua Miller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2003 9:47 AM > Subject: RE: Java 1.4.1 CFMXJ2EE for JRun Mac OS X > > >> Dick, >> >> Here's the content of the page you can't access: >> >> 3/25/2003 >> Getting JRun and CFMX to Work With Java 1.4.1 on OS X >> Archive URL: >> http://markme.com/cantrell/weblog/index.cfm?m=3&d=25&y=2003 >> [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Thanks to Woojin Choi for posting information on getting JRun to work >> with Java 1.4.1 on OS X.
