Hi everyone. I'm new to this list but have been using CF for 9 years now.
I've encountered a major problem that causes the trial version of CF7.01 to
repeatedly fail on installation on Windows 2003 Server with SP1. I realise
there's a technote about SP1 issues (that's SP1 slipstreamed which I'm
using, not SP1 applied after initial installation) but the rather ridiculous
solution given doesn't work. http://www.macromedia.com/go/228c3aaa

The errors in the CF install log are always:

ANT Script Error:
Status: ERROR
Additional Notes: ERROR - jrun.xmljava.io.FileNotFoundException:
C:\JRun4\tmpmove.bat (Access is denied)

and also...

Web Server Connector Configuration Error
Status: ERROR
Additional Notes: ERROR - JNDI port 2902 for server cfusion is not active

I have tried at least 40 times on VMware servers via RDP running Win2003
Enterprise (trial) and not via RDP running 2003 Standard (fully licensed)
and directly on a physical machine running Win2003 Enterprise (trial). I
have tried combinations of single and multi server CF options and selecting
30-day Trial and Developer Edition. The only success I've had (about 3 out
of 40 attempts) is when Developer Edition is selected and IIS web extensions
have been enabled prior to installation. Even this approach is random in
success.

I'm sure everyone can appreciate that such an inconsistent and unreliable
situation can't be allowed to progress to a full production environment.
Macromedia US refuses to help unless I spend $500 on a support ticket. What
other company charges money to accept a bug report? They won't even log the
fact that it's a bug or pass my problem onto anyone in tech support. Despite
the fortune that my clients have spent with CF licenses and support
contracts in the past Macromedia don't want to know. .NET is calling me
louder than ever and at a time I have zero faith in Macromedia and CF I'm in
a rather difficult situation as I've committed my current project to using
CF. Obviously I can't buy the licenses for this project until Macromedia can
get CF to install on a standard Win2003 SP1 machine. Why burn all that money
for nothing?

If anyone has experienced this or knows of a reliable workaround or knows of
someone in Macromedia who will listen, please let me know. There doesn't
seem to be anyone at Macromedia UK who is responsible for CF which is
bizarre.

Much appreciated,
Gary.
