Evening all... I'm having real "issues" installing CFMX on a RedHat 9 box. I've installed MX on linux plenty of times before, but this time things just aren't happening.
For some reason, JRun seems to be taking an absolute age to start up - in the cfserver.log the "Starting Macromedia Jrun 4..." message comes up straight off, but it takes about three minutes for the "Unable to open properties" line, and another three mins after that until the CF application is actually deployed: ---------------------------8<------------------------- Starting Macromedia JRun 4 (Build 63824), default server 03/22 10:54:28 warning Unable to open /opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/lib/license.properties 03/22 10:57:39 info JRun Naming Service listening on *:2901 Running on JRun4...

If I wait until after the server has apparently started up and then run the connector manually (or using cfmx-connecters.sh) then it just sits there apparently doing nothing for ages again and then comes up with a message saying it can't connect to the JRun server: ---------------------------8<------------------------- /opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/jre/bin/java -jar \ /opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/lib/wsconfig.jar -ws apache \ -dir /etc/httpd/conf -a -bin /usr/sbin/httpd \ -script /etc/init.d/httpd -v Could not connect to any JRun/ColdFusion servers on host localhost. Possible causes: o Server not running -Start Macromedia JRun4 or ColdFusion MX server o Server running -JNDI listen port in jndi.properties blocked by TCP/IP filtering or firewall on server -host restriction in security.properties blocking communication with server ---------------------------8<------------------------- Now I have made changes to the security.properties as advised in the middle of http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/connector_inst all_faq.htm because I was getting "attempt to connect to JRun server from [IP address] host" errors in cfserver.log. My security.properties file currently has the following entries: jrun.subnet.restriction= jrun.trusted.hosts=[my machine's IP] But even if I state both the above as having a value of * (i.e. no restrictions) then I still get the same issues. If I enable the internal webserver and connect to :8500 then it sits there for a while then cuts the connection - I'm guessing it's the same problem. I've now run out of things to try... Has anyone else got any suggestions?
