Chapter 3: Installing the J2EE Configuration
Platforms
Full ColdFusion MX functionality is available on Windows, Linux, and Solaris. Additionally, you
can install and deploy the all-Java ColdFusion MX J2EE configuration on other platforms,
although without the functionality provided by platform-specific binary files (Verity and C++
CFXs).
Preparing to install using the J2EE configuration
This section provides installation instructions for the ColdFusion MX J2EE configuration. When
installing the J2EE configuration, you have the following options:
•
New installation – install JRun 4
Select this option to install a copy of Macromedia JRun 4
with ColdFusion MX deployed and configured as an enterprise application in a JRun server.
For installation details, see
“Installing the J2EE configuration with JRun” on page 36
. This is
the recommended J2EE configuration option if JRun or another J2EE application server is not
already installed on the computer.
•
New installation – create EAR or WAR
Select this option if you already have a J2EE
application server running on the computer. The installation wizard creates an EAR file or two
WAR files, which you deploy using J2EE application server-specific tools or utilities. For
installation details, see
“Installing an EAR file or WAR files” on page 39
.
•
Update existing
ColdFusion MX
– redeploy existing EAR or WAR
Select this option if
ColdFusion MX is already deployed in a J2EE application server running on the computer.
With this option, the installation wizard backs up ColdFusion MX settings, backs up CFM
pages, and creates and EAR file or two WAR files. You undeploy the current ColdFusion MX
application, deploy ColdFusion MX 6.1, and copy the saved settings from the backup
directory. For installation details, see
“Installing an EAR file or WAR files” on page 39
.
Note:
Migration from ColdFusion 4.5 or 5 to the ColdFusion MX J2EE configuration is not
supported. In addition, the J2EE configuration is not supported by ClusterCATS.
Although the ColdFusion MX 6.1 installation wizard provides an intuitive interface, it helps to
plan your answers to the questions:
