Okay, so I'm playing around some more with this today, and it looks like the problem is that it (tomcat?) is not seeing /var/www/html as my webroot. All of my sites (ColdFusion, PHP, etc.) are under the path /var/www/html/sitename. So vangemerts.com <http://vangemerts.com> is under /var/www/html/vangemerts.

I installed obenbd to /var/www/openbd.

When you say "installed" exactly how did you do this? Was this using Jordan's installer? Unfortunately I just haven't had time to play with his installer yet so I can't help with many specifics as far as that's concerned but I'm sure he'll jump in when he can.

Simplest way to cut out all the middle-men and test your setup is to do the following, provided Tomcat is up and running properly:
1. Download a fresh OpenBD WAR from the site
2. Drop openbd.war in your Tomcat webapps directory. If you don't rename the WAR, this will create a new webapp in Tomcat called openbd 3. Check the Tomcat manager to make sure the new openbd webapp has been deployed and is in a running state
4. Hit http://your_server_ip:8080/openbd in a browser

I think there's just so much else going on with where you put things, Tomcat settings, Apache settings, etc. that it seems a "do over" as a starting point is in order so you can see CFML pages running.


Also, where exactly is the WEB-INF directory that's pertinant to OpenBD located? I can find several WEB-INF directories, but they just contain a single file called web.xml. Where is the OpenBD Administrator located? How do I get to it? Maybe what I should be doing is testing with that application and not my own application at this point. Really, right now I'd be happy to se ANY CF page run.

Typically this would be directly under your context path. So if you do the steps above, you'd find a WEB-INF directory under {tomcat_root}/webapps/openbd

With this running you would hit the administrator at http://your_server_ip:8080/openbd/bluedragon/administrator
