Thanks for the warning Charlie!
The strange part (one of them) was the initial install didn't create the
following section in the neo-runtime.xml file at all, I had to copy it
from the 7 instance and adjust the paths to the correct ones. I'm still
getting a 500 error, but now only one block of java error code.
The missing chunk of xml:
<struct type='coldfusion.server.ConfigMap'>
<var name="/CFIDE">
<string>/u1/cfapps8/CFIDE</string>
</var>
<var name="/cfdocs">
<string>/u1/cfmx8/wwwroot/cfdocs</string>
</var>
<var name="/gateway">
<string>/u1/cfmx8/gateway/cfc</string>
</var>
</struct>
The remaining error:
500
java.lang.NullPointerException

Would it be better/faster to dump the existing 8 install and start again,
this time going the multi-server route?

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.

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.
Thanks,
