Hi, On a new install of CFMX 7, I am attempting to run CF under a non-system user account, as recommended for security.
I have created a user following the instructions in Macromedia's document "Configuring ColdFusion MX 7 Server Security" (which was published in February but now seems to have disappeared from the site) regarding the User account and its necessary permissions. I have checked several times to make sure that I have followed the steps correctly, but once the service is restarted under the new account, all that's returned by the browser is "JRUN servlet error NULL 500." The Windows application log reports "Win32 API routinue 'CreateFile' failed: Access is denied," which seems to indicate a permissions error. The Macromedia doc does not indicate the need for write permissions anywhere, though that seems to be the problem. But I don't want to grant write permissions anywhere that's not necessary, since that's part of the point of using a non-system account. Can anyone give me any guidance, please? -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 530 Means St NW, Suite 110 Atlanta, GA 30318 404.589.0560 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:221695 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
