Matthew, that is a good description of what I need to do. I have now got CF8 installed and running, but only by calling http://localhost:8501/<whatever>
That's ok but it's not using Apache, and that location is only pointing to the locatio nof hte docs and admin. I need to be able to access web sites using CF8, while still having CF7 going too. Otherwise my sites wont work, and nor will a lot of my includes, cfc calls, etc I'd like to be able to just have it somehow that the server knows http://dev.clientA is a CF7 site, and http://dev.clientB is a CF8 site. That means (correct my if i'm wrong) that i have ot change those IfModule mod_jrun22.c settings in the Apache config. So fair enough. From what you say i think i need to point to a different version of the jrunserverstore.exe. Where does the additional copy of serverstore.exe come from? is it added by teh connector (because mine isnt doing that) or do i just copy the folder that's there to a new folder? How do i know what port to use? You are using port 51020- but where did that number come from? did you make it up? or did something tell you? what did? I am SOOO close to being finished on this. It's only been 7 hours now. the quickest and easiest Coldfusion installation I've had yet. And I've been installing them since CF4.0.
