Sure will. The installer will prompt you for an install directory. The
default is /opt/openbd/, but you can change it to be whatever you want.
HTH!

@Jordan,
Thank you for the fast response! That sounds like the perfect answer for me.
One follow up question... In the "default" tomcat install (which I
understand I will
be uninstalling to use the OpenBD installer referenced) the directory
was not under
the /opt ... will the installer allow me to choose the directories or
are they defaulted/unchangeable?
Thanks again!!

Hi Alan,
Sounds like the OpenBD installers were made for you. =)
You can grab a modern copy of the OpenBD 2.0.2 Linux installer here:
http://openbd.viviotech.net/
Run it as "root" on a fresh Linux install (WITH Apache but WITHOUT
Tomcat) and it will walk you though the process. It contains a copy of
the JRE, Tomcat, and configures OpenBD as a common class - so you have
one OpenBD administrator that handles the entire server. If you have
Apache installed, it will also configure the mod_jk connector in
Apache for you, so CFML requests are passed to Tomcat.
These installers also include mod_cfml, so you shouldn't have to
configure Tomcat in addition to Apache. Your Apache config should be
added to Tomcat automatically as you add sites to Apache.
Documentation for mod_cfml is here: http://www.modcfml.org/
I'm still working on the 2.0.2 Windows installer for OpenBD, but it
will be ready shortly.
Let us know if you run into any problems with it. We'll be happy to help.
Warm Regards,
Jordan Michaels
