First question that needs to be answered is what version of SUSE do
you have? Second, do you mind changing to Red Hat? In addition, what
version of MySQL do you need?
I have White Box Linux[1] running on my home server and I have CFMX
6.1, jRun, Apache 2, MySQL 3.xx, PHP, PostgreSQL all running quite
happily beside each other. So it is more than possible to do.
As for a tutorial on how to set all of this up, that I do not have.
Although, if you get the right version of SUSE, just doing the install
is enough to install MySQL, PHP, and Apache onto the box for you. This
is the easiest way of getting things up and running. Installing
ColdFusion MX, for me at least, is a fairly trivial thing. Just
remember to use the GUI installer.
Any questions, just shout.
[1] White Box Linux is a clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 AS.
