Rick, I havent finished reading through this thread, but i suspect most of your questions will be answered if you follow the step-by-step instructions for the ACME setup - apache, ColdFusion, MySQL, Eclipse. I suspect you know what you need to konw about MySQL and Eclipse or not is a different issue. but the ACME site gives you everything you need to know, and the really good thing is while the install scripts give you a bazillion and a quarter questions and possibilities, teh ACME step-by-step lets you skp over all the thigns you can accept as defaults (which is most things)>
I find with new software, all too often you're asked to choose between alternatives when you're installing, but given no help as to why you'd choose one or the other. I STRONGLY urge you to try this - it'll let you skip over all these server issues, get the things installed and get to the real issue, which is tinkering with the new coldfusion. You're setting up a development/test environment as far as I can see, not a productoin server. If you get something that's less than optimal it's not a huge deal you're not going to be having a lot of traffic. What you want now is to get it going and start playing with it. Follow the instructions in the ACME guide, and you'll have a good, solid CFMX7 installation in less than an hour. http://www.stephencollins.org/acme/ Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month On 6/17/06, Rick Faircloth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Now video encoding I know something about...yes!
