i went and manually edited the <context-root> setting in the instance's jrun-web.xml and all is good now!
trying to set context root to / in JMC did not work, but manually editing jrun-web.xml did the trick. strangely, though, in JMC now the instance's context root appears just empty, not / ... also, i was under the impression that the instance's context root setting was set in cfusion-ear\META-INF\application.xml, but apparently it is not as i had it set to / there all along... bonus - i do not have to use /cf9 in the urls any more either. thanks for your help, Dave! you got me looking into more things and i finally figured it out. jrun's livedocs were surprisingly helpful in pointing me to the <context-root> in jrun-web.xml Azadi Saryev On 12/12/2009 00:39, Dave Watts wrote: > >> setting up virtual Apache servers - something tells me it is not the >> same as vhosts, is it? >> but google seems to think it is... could you point me to where i can >> find more info on how to set them up? >> > Yes, it's the same.
