Hey Sean, that wouldn't be a problem with the RDS implementation. That would be with the aspect of adding a server to be managed from within CFB.
I do so lament that they have gone this way of kind of forcing people into thinking that they need to "add their server" to CFB, and that they need to install the "admin instance" to a server to be "used with CFB". The fact is, if you just want to do RDS stuff, you do NOT need to do the whole "add server" thing (when adding a project, or in the Servers view). You can just do the RDS stuff, without all that, either by defining an RDS server setup in the Windows>Preferences>Adobe>RDS Configuration or from within the various RDS views (RDS Data View, RDS File View, Services Browser etc.) So the whole JNDI thing is what gives away to me that your problem is with that. RDS works entirely over port 80. If you really do just want to do RDS stuff, start by going into that window>preferences>adobe>rds config section and use the "test" button there to confirm if all is ok with your RDS setup. And as for the "servers" thing, if you really wanted to get it going, it could be simply that the 2910 port is blocked. Or your CF server there may be using a different port. It's defined in [cf]\runtime\servers\coldfusion\SERVER-INF\jndi.properties (in the Standalone/Server mode) and [jrun]\servers\cfusion\SERVER-INF\ jndi.properties (in the multiple instance/multiserver mode). Then again, unless you want to start/stop them from within CFB (unlikely on a remote hosted server), you could also just remove the server definition to get past the error you see. There are some other benefits that come from it, but if all you want really is the RDS stuff, it's just not necessary. Hope that's helpful. /charlie > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of sharrison > Sent: Thursday, August 06, 2009 9:28 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] ADobe ColdFusion Builder > > Has anyone else had huge problems with using CFBuilder's RDS > implementation? > Specifically, this error: > > "The connection to the remote JNDI server on host alienetworks.com at > port > 2910 has failed (as have all backup hosts listed, if any) - please > verify > that the server is running and the NamingService is available" > > The last word I got from Adobe was that this is a 'known issue' -- > seems > like the fact that RDS simply doesn't work at all for some folks would > be a > significant issue indeed. > > I've installed the admin scripts, service is up and running, port 2910 > is > open, still no love - do I need to keep on using CF Studio? :) > > Any insight appreciated. > > W.
