Casey, They have certainly setup their server correctly for shared hosting. No host would give every customer a dedicated instance of CF on a shared server (unless they paid extra for it). This would result in 4-5 customers per server, and at $10 per customer on average the host would go out of buisness very quickly using such a business model, as the server would cost more than the customers are paying each month.

If your going to go the shared route this is the only way to go. In this case, looks like they didn't setup their server correctly, I though that was the point of JRUN, that you could seperate the instanses of coldfusion which I would expect to seperate even same named mappings. Shared hosting with Coldfusion just doesn't work. With a VPS account you have full access to do what you want and not effect anyone else on the server. You even have access to Coldfusion administrator or BlueDragon Administrator and can do what you like. Other issues you don't have to deal with is a real common one called cfdirectory maybe your using cfftp or cffile and they have blocked these tags as well. Only way out is VPS or flippin the bill on your own server. An example of VPS options out there... http://viviotech.net/hosting_vps.cfm I just switched my private sites over there so I can't say much but at least I have much more control over my sites with very little additional funds needed to pay the bills! -- Casey ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:261016 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
