Do you (or anyone else reading) have a recommendation for one that runs well on 64 bit Win2k8? I found several articles on starting terracotta automatically, but they seem to refer to older versionso of windows and software that doesn't seem to exist for 2k8.

This was the problem. Rob had written a really nice dzone article that i followed to do the upgrade (though I went to the latest version of ehcache, which was 2.5.2 instead of 2.4.1 as the article discusses) http://java.dzone.com/articles/building-high-performance So I have it all upgraded, and it is working.. now I can focus on getting the configuration all figured out. =) Rick ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351353 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

>I have not, but since CF is talking to a specific IP port for this, >watch out for firewalls, etc. We are running Windows Firewall ... I did check, from a command prompt, if I could telnet to localhost 9510 ... and it allowed me in so I don't think the firewall was affecting it. However, just in case, I added a rule allowing access through to port 9510. I did find the following error message in my jrun4/logs/instancename-out.log (not a place I often look!) java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/sf/ehcache/config/TerracottaClientConfiguration Perhaps the problem here is that I'm using a version of terracotta that is too modern for Coldfusion 901's version of ehcache. The jar file that I copied was "ehcache-terracotta-2.5.2.jar" but the two sites I found both mention use ehcache-terracotta-2.0.0.jar". I know Rob Brooks site talks about upgrading ehcache so I guess maybe I need to look into this. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:351352 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Distributed Cache in Coldfusion 9 with Terracotta
I'd also give these blog posts a review if you haven't already. http://rob.brooks-bilson.com/index.cfm/Terracotta Specifically, there is a webinar link in there that (if the recording is available) might help you out a bit. -Cameron On Mon, May 28, 2012 at 9:44 PM, Rick Root wrote: > > Also, if anyone has any tips on how to set up the terracotta server to > start automatically when windows starts, that'd be appreciated! > > We are running 64 bit Windows Server 2008..

Distributed Cache in Coldfusion 9 with Terracotta
So, I am told that you can use ehcache in CF to work as a distributed cache if you install the open source terracotta server. I'm having trouble finding instructions on how to do this. I found the following article on doing it: http://www.coffeesix.com/2010/07/distributed-cache-with-coldfusion-9-0-1/ and after following the basic instructions and attempting to test it out... I get no noticeable error, but my page request seems to abort without error when calling either the cachePut() or cacheGet() functions. At the top of the page, before any output, I see the following: "The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred." But, I cannot trap an error with cftry/cfcatch.. the page just stops executing. Anyone seen this behavior before?
