AMAZING

Regular readers to CF-Talk will be aware that I have been wrestling with
installing CFMX since last Friday to no avail.  Despite everything that
has been suggested, it just wont set up jrun so it works.  I can't make
CFMX work with IIs and it can't get the internal web server to set up a
virtual directory.   I've installed, removed, reinstalled, removed
again, eliminated every trace of ColdFusion,  cleaned the registry,
reinstalled a dozen times.   I've had several people doing remote
sessions on my desktop.  People like Dave Watts can't find the problem.


So I decided to see if Macromedia would back me up as a reseller and
developer, and I called their support line at 1800 001 014

I got connected to their Manilla office and Pauline's response was that
I couldn't even talk to a support person unless I paid US$500.  

In other words, I have downloaded the CFMX, it doesn't install
correctly, for whatever reason, I can't make it work, no one else can
either apparently, and Macromedia aren't going to try unless I cough up
nearly 2/3 of the cost of a server.  That's to evalutate it!!!  Imagine
if I was a potential customer. I have to persevere with this damn thing
because a substantial part of my business is based around COldFusion.
But if I was a web site owned, I'd have dumped ColdFusion days ago.  And
I certainly wouldn't continue after learning I had to pay all that to
even get someone to hear what my problem was!!

I guess I'm just not meant to be in the MX world.
