FWIW, I've had severe trouble getting
CF8 installed over an existing and working
CF7 install. The only way I could kind of
get things working is to install it and specify
to use the built in webserver, and then reconfigure
to use an external webserver. RDS would never
work, I tried 6 times on three different
machines, in the end manually creating missing
files did the trick. What a pain.
Mischa.

CF7 and CF8 on the same box
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
at jrun.servlet.JRunRequestDispatcher.invoke(JRunRequestDispatcher.java:283)
at jrun.servlet.ServletEngineService.dispatch(ServletEngineService.java:543)
at jrun.servlet.jrpp.JRunProxyService.invokeRunnable(JRunProxyService.java:203)
at jrunx.scheduler.ThreadPool$DownstreamMetrics.invokeRunnable(ThreadPool.java:320)

at jrunx.scheduler.ThreadPool$UpstreamMetrics.invokeRunnable(ThreadPool.java:266)
at jrunx.scheduler.WorkerThread.run(WorkerThread.java:66)
Would it be better/faster
to dump the existing 8 install and start
again, this time going the multi-server route? Andy From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Charlie Arehart 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 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, Andy Fox Systems Analyst
