Steve,

First, your posts in this thread have been extraordinarily informative.
Thank you very much.

That said, what I take out of this is that, to develop applications for the
ColdFusion MX platform, we developers need a very thorough understanding of
the JVM. This includes how to debug JVM related issues and where to go to
locate information about JVM error messages.

I believe that this is a relatively new requirement for ColdFusion
developers. I'd go so far as to say it is a skill that most of us lack. I've
been developing in ColdFusion since the dbm days, and much of what you wrote
was foreign to me.

This is not entirely unexpected. Since the release of ColdFusion MX, I've
spent a good deal of time sifting through Axis fault errors. In general, I
find that I have to know a lot more about the internals of ColdFusion MX
than I had to know about ColdFusion 5.

With ColdFusion MX, I routinely have to make changes to the JRun XML config
files. For example, I have to duplicate ColdFusion mappings in JRun so that
cfimport and Axis pick them. With ColdFusion 5, I believe there was only one
setting that I changed outside of the ColdFusion Administrator. That was a
registry key change.

Speaking on behalf of myself, I'm willing to learn. Consequently, besides
the links that were posted so far in this thread, can you recommend any good
reading on this topic? Personally, I'd prefer sources that don't require an
intimate knowledge of Java itself as I have only a passing familiarity with
the language.

Regardless, thank you for the tips and links you've already provided.
