I have a question and a couple of issues...

Questions:
1.  When multiple applications are running on one server (Jetty, ready 2 
run on Windows 7 Pro), which Admin works for which application?  I have had 
to copy bluedragon.xml files around when I set a DSN or something else in 
what I thought was the "live" admin, only to find that I was updating a 
different bluedragon.xml.

which leads me to another probably very basic question (a little chagrined 
since I have been coding in CF since 1997, and using BlueDragon since it 
was available, and OpenBD since it was available)

2.  Do I need a separate WEB-INF in each of my application's folder 
structure?  It seems that I do, but feels silly every time I do an upgrade 
and have to paste the new jar files to multiple places.  Again, Jetty, 
Ready 2 Run.  I have a few boxes running with the Windows Installer Tomcat 
version.

Issues:

3.  (May be related to the above).  Scheduled Tasks don't always seem to 
stick.  I enter them through the Admin, then sometimes they aren't visible. 
 Changes have been made to the bluedragon.xml, but not visible through the 
Admin UI.  On one server, there are ghost (since I cannot see them in the 
Admin UI for the application that the task is supposed to be working for) 
scheduled tasks that are running every 4 hours between 8AM and 9PM, but not 
visible via the Admin UI.  Version 2.0 (June 7, 2012).  [Update: I see the 
tasks in another bluedragon.xml, and now that I ported the Administrator 
folder over, I can see the task via the UI, and have deleted it]


4.  Collections are set via the UI, then not visible through the UI - I 
have reported this as an issue earlier this year, and ended up giving up. 
 I see them in the bluedragon.xml, but not via the UI, and when I run the 
code, the collections are not present consistently.  Sometimes they work, 
and then I reindex, and then they are gone and I need to start over.

Overall, I am still super pleased with OpenBD as my app server, and can 
spend so much more time designing, being creative and coding than 
configuring or screwing around making tools that should exist but don't.  I 
have converted a couple developers to switch to OpenBD recently - one from 
PHP and one from asp.net, and they can't get over how easy it is to get 
started and do what they want to get done.

Thanks for all the work that you do on OpenBD,

Rob
