There are lots of reasons why you might have problems from one machine and not another. JVM tuning, specific database driver versions, wacky network issues, etc. To diagnose your problems, you should try to remove as many variables as possible, obviously. You might try using the database drivers that are on your 6.1 machine. To do this, stop CFMX 7, go into your lib directory, rename "macromedia_drivers.jar" to something else, and copy the jar file of the same name from your 6.1 machine. I think that 7 has newer drivers, which are supposed to work better in most cases, but your case may be different. If you have a lot of Hotspot errors (as indicated by the hs_pid_xxx.log files), you might simply disable Hotspot on your development machine. This will significantly degrade performance in most cases, but if it's a development machine you might not care too much. You'd do this by editing jvm.config. I don't remember the exact switch you'd need to add offhand, but I'm sure it's easily Googled. You mentioned somewhere else that your database server is on your CFMX 6.1 machine. You might try installing SQL Server (just for testing purposes) on your development machine, just to see if there's some sort of odd network problem that you avoid when making local connections.
