Andy, Changing the CFIDE location is dicey. It can be done, but it's like surgery in a lot of ways
First, the location of the CFIDE is specified in the /lib/neo-runtime.xml file (as a mapping entry for /CFIDE). I think that if you change the location, you'll need to change the value there. If I recall correctly, if you don't get that value right in the XML file (if you modify it), the Admin may not start, and various CFCs within that directory may not run. Beware. The location entered there is also displayed (but not editable) in the CF Admin, under Server Settings>Mappings. Also, if you actually rename the directory, be aware that you'll also need to change the entry in the CF Admin (Server Settings>Settings> Default ScriptSrc Directory). It will also break any pre-built links/shortcuts that were implemented when the CF server was installed (but they're editable). Finally, just be aware that there are some built-in things that also rely on /CFIDE as the directory, such as the xml entries in web.xml, which describe how other tools (like the RDS features in CF Studio/HS+, DW, and the Eclipse extensions for CF8) all come back to the server. Like I said, changing the CFIDE location is dicey. Someone may well have put out a useful doc explaining what it takes, but I'm not aware of it. /charlie From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Fox, Andrew J Sent: Monday, March 17, 2008 9:59 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] CF7 and CF8 on the same box Adobe pointed me in the (hopefully) right direction for resolving the 500 error I posted about previously. When setting up a single machine to run both CF7 and CF8, what is a "best practice" for the location of the CFIDE directories? Can the one for CF8 be renamed CFIDE8 without dire consequences (ie. Making changes all over the place?) For CF7, ours is located in the default /u1/htdocs directory. If the CFIDE8 scheme works, that would help keep thinks in line for us.
