Hey Nick-

The CFMX standalone and JRun will run fine on the same machine. However, you
won't have as clean integration (for example, you will have to call on EJBs
remotely instead of locally and servlets/JSP will be running in a separate
container than you CFM pages).

Also, you can include individual JSP pages and servlets in CF pages in any
version of CFMX. So while you can't call a JSP page (say page.jsp), you can
call on a CFMX page that includes the JSP page (page.cfm that includes
page.jsp) - much like a CFINCLUDE, but using different syntax. So you could
set up a controller CFM page that includes the necessary JSP page if you
wan't to save the JSP code but not have it on a separate server. This will
allow you to share application and session variables and other such
integration techniques...

Hope this helps.

Thanks Skip.

So I need to purchase and install JRun, that's clear. But should I attempt
to run JRun and CFMX Pro side by side, or should I install JRun "underneath"
CFMX/J2EE? It seems that the latter is much more expensive and involves
getting 2 new software licences, which appears strange considering CFMX Pro
has got JRun hidden inside it anyway?

Nick

such as JSPs and Servlets.  If you want to mix/match Java web components and
CFML templates, that capability is supported in CFMX Enterprise and
CFMX/J2EE.  There's a feature comparison matrix and pricing info available
here:
