It doesn't give me enough control. I always set up instances with their own jvm.config and a properties file specific for that instance. > So Jochem, if I create a new empty instance, do I just dump the EAR file > in there and restart? Is that all? Yes. You will probably need to correct some paths in the CF Administrator after it started. > Is there any documentation anywhere > on this?

No. It is not officially supported and if you follow the manual you need to deploy your application through the JRun management console. I have never had any problem with that either, but since just dropping the .EAR in and restarting works too I usually don't bother. > When you deploy do you delete the old cfusion.ear folder, or is it > replaced automatically? I have no cfusion.ear folder, i have a projectname-buildnr.ear file which I remove and a custom startup script that removes everything in SERVER-INF/tmp/ > Do you place the new EAR at the same level of the cfusion.ear folder? > For instance: C:\JRun4\servers\myinstancename\new_archive_to_deploy.ear Yes.
