We are about to deploy on a configuration of CF7/Flex (prod is multi-instance while my local dev is standalone) so it works. I worked with Peter Farland (well he did most of it) and created the necessary web.xml file to get these to work together. I have attached it.
You will need to install Flex on your server obviously. Best.

The trial version has the java side installed with it, but with the full version... nothing. Coldfusion has java built in, but I can't open .jsp or .mxml files from my site. Thank you, Paul Yahoo!

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd";> <!-- This web.xml is a sample ColdFusion MX 7 web application deployment descriptor (with its own Embedded Flex for Flash Forms and Reporting) merged with a Flex 1.5 web application deployment descriptor. This file should work on JRun 4 as that application server is more lenient in its parsing of web.xml deployment descriptors. Other application servers may enforce the DTD specified order of each config section, for example, WebSphere expects servlets to become servlet-mappings, etc. This file takes this order into account and as a result is a little longer than it could be for JRun because the configuration sections have to be separated for CFMX 7, CFMX 7-Embedded-Flex and Flex 1.5. Another item to consider for other application servers is that each config element might need a unique id attribute. I'm not sure which application servers require this, but note that the Flex 1.5 config sections do not have unique id attributes and thus these would have to be added if the application server required it. The co-existance of ColdFusion MX 7 and Flex 1.5 is made possible due to several factors. Firstly, since CFMX 7 contains some portions of Flex to support its reporting and flash forms features, unique servlet names and servlet mappings had to be chosen to avoid collisions. Secondly, the two applications store the majority of there classes in their own directories and locate classes with a custom bootstrap classloader. The bootstrap classloaders allow each application to guarantee that their versions of common APIs, such as Apache Commons, Log4J, and XML Parsing APIs, are used rather than those shipped with each application server or user web application. The CFMX 7 bootstrap classloader classpath is specified by the cf.class.path context-param. Typically all CFMX specific libraries live in various directories under /WEB-INF/cfusion The Flex 1.5 bootstrap classloader classpath is specified by the flex.class.path context-param. Typically all Flex specific libraries live at /WEB-INF/flex/jars There are exceptions to this, however... application features that must run in the current web application classpath (such as tag libs used in JSP pages or Flex RemoteObject that needs to locate user defined classes) typically are contained in libraries in /WEB-INF/lib. --> <web-app id="macromedia_coldfusion"> <display-name>Macromedia Coldfusion MX and Macromedia Flex 1.5</display-name> <description>Macromedia Coldfusion MX 7 merged with Macromedia Flex 1.5</description> <!-- CFMX 7 Context Params --> <context-param id="macromedia_context_1"> <param-name>cftags</param-name> <param-value>/WEB-INF/cftags</param-value> <description>Path to search for built-in tags.
