We own a licensed copy of ColdFusion MX 6.1 Enterprise Edition and
subscribe to the yearly maintenance updates.
According to the PDF at the following URLs, ColdFusionMX 6.1 Enterprise
Edition now includes a licensed copy of Macromedia JRun4 J2EE Server.

"...
5. Increase security and reliability with multiple server instances.
With the new J2EE configuration of ColdFusion MX Enterprise, you can
isolate applications in separate processes on the same server. Deploy on
the bundled Macromedia JRun server, or on third-party Java servers such
as IBM WebSphere, BEA WebLogic, or Sun ONE.
6. ...
7. Extend your ColdFusion applications with full access to the Java
platform. ColdFusion MX Enterprise now includes full access to the JRun
J2EE server, so you can build applications that combine CFML with Java
Server Pages, JSP tag libraries, servlets, EJBs, and more.

The installation process allows me to install ColdFusionMX 6.1 in
standalone mode or as a J2EE application. I chose to install
ColdFusionMX as a J2EE application and therefore a copy of JRun4 was
installed with ColdFusionMX deployed as a JRun Server.
Now (30 days later) JRun is giving me this warning:
Starting Macromedia JRun 4 (Build 63824), admin server
08/05 09:54:36 warning The Trial License evaluation period will expire
in 0 days.
08/05 09:54:36 warning The Trial License evaluation period for JRun has
expired; switching to the Developer Version License

I called macromedia and one answer that I got from Macromedia was to
just re-install. Ha!! They means that the person was too lazy to deal
with the situation. So I called Customer Support and they said that I
have to install ColdFusionMX as a stand-alone server. Huh??? That
contradicts what I have read so far.
Has there been some type of misunderstanding?
Has Macromedia pulled a fast on one me?
What the crap is going on?
I am MAD and FRUSTRATED. I have spend numerous hours configuring our
servers with ColdFusionMX as a J2EE application on JRun4 and all for
nothing. Have I got this all wrong?
What impression/understanding do the rest of you have by the
announcement that JRun is now bundled with CFMX Enterprise Edition?
Sincerely,
Troy
