Starting coldfusion server on fedora core6

I am having problems in starting the coldfusion mx server.
Coldfusion has been installed but problems in starting it. After
installation i got this message.
To continue with your installation, go to
/opt/coldfusionmx/bin and type
"./coldfusion start" to start your server.
I get the code below when trying to start the server when
logged in as root. Could some please help?

you did not say which cf version you are running....
for cfmx7/cf8 on win xp:
go to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services
in the list of services look for Coldfusion services (should
be 3-4
there). the main one is called Application Server. make sure
the status
next to the name shows "Started". if not, double-click on
that service
and in the window that opens select Automatic for Startup
Type, click
Start button and then OK.
NOTE: even with Automatic Startup selected i still have CF
not starting
with win xp sometimes on my dev computer and have to manually
start it.
If the status of the service in the Services panel shows
"Started", but
you can't view any .cfm pages, then try restarting the
service, and if
that does not help look into re-configuring the web server
connectors...

Starting ColdFusion server: error, no known vms (check for currupt jvm.cfg file)

just installed ColdFusion, from adode flex 3 training from the sourse. But when I check to see if it works correctly by entering jrun -start cfusion in the command prom I get the error, no known vms (check for currupt jvm.cfg file). I tried uninstalling Java and reinstalling but nothing changed.
I don't know what I need to do to get it working can anyone help?
many thanks

When you say you can't open the jvm.config file, what exactly does this mean? Is the file zero-length? How have you tried to open it? It's a text file, and should be opened in Notepad.

Coldfusion 8 service will not start. Server log is ending with "Starting license..." (Emergency)

Our server has gone down and the Coldfusion 8 service will not start. There is no information in any of the logs for anything today since its gone down. Ive checked the root logs directory as well as the runtime logs directory.
The server.log is the only file being updated and it shows "Starting logging..." and then "Starting license..." and hangs. The service does not start and the log gets nothing more after this point. Memory continues to go up slowly, we've increased the start timeout tremendously with no effect. There is little to no CPU usage.
Our server is licensed and has never had this problem before. It is the standard version.
Our server is completely down and we are losing clients. From what we can tell a windows update occurred, which we have since removed in case it was the issue, and when the server restarted CF did not come back. We have been working on this for hours with no results.
Please help and let me know anything you may need which will help diagnose our issue.
Thanks

So that others who see this know the solution.
I started Coldfusion from the command line: c:\Coldfusion8\runtime\bin\jrun -start coldfusion. This brought up all the commands as it worked through them. From that we found that CF was looking for license.properties in the C:\Coldfusion8\runtime\lib folder. We found a copy in the C:\Coldfusion8\lib folder. For now we've left it running under my account and then after hours are going to try and see if the service will run now that we've copied that properties file to the other direcory.
Probably simple to everyone on here but was new and odd to us. Wanted to put what we found out here in case it happens to anyone else.

Starting ColdFusion Multi-Server Instances - Correct Method

Can someone please provide me with the correct method of starting multi-server instances of ColdFusion from the command line?
I have been using:
/<jrun4 home>/bin/jrun -nohup -start cfusion (for the cfusion instance)
/<jrun4 home>/bin/jrun -nohup -start <coldfusion instance 2> (for a second instance of coldfusion)
etc.
I see however that when the second instance of coldfusion (<coldfusion instance 2>) is started from the ColdFusion Administrator (Enterprise Manager - Instance Manager), it appears as the following:
/<jrun4 home>/bin/jrun -nohup -start -childVM <coldfusion instance 2>
What is the purpose of the -childVM switch that appears to be used when starting the instance from the ColdFusion Administrator (Enterprise Manager - Instance Manager)? Should it be used when manually starting the instance from the command line?
Is there an online reference for the jrun swithces to be used when starting ColdFusion instances? I have not been able to find any.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

This is one are were you won't find too many good docs on.
I have two servers running CentOS in a cluster, with each server running two CF 8.1 servers in a cluster on each server. So I have 4 CF prod servers.
The problem you will find is that the admin server interface can stop/start a service, but it uses the same jvm.config file as with thich the admin server was started. I have searched a lot, but couldn't find a solution to start the servers from the admin console. So I start them vir the "service" option on the OS level.
So I build a script were I can start each server with its own jvm.config file. Madness to allocate 1Gig of mem for the admin server just so that the other servers can get 1Gig as well.
Here is my startup script:
[root@clu1 logs]# cat /etc/init.d/coldfusion8multi
#!/bin/sh
# chkconfig: 345 90 14
# description: starts the MultiServer cfusion instance
if [ -f /etc/rc.common ]; then
. /etc/rc.common
fi
# Start ColdFusion 8 Multiserver
# Because this is a start up script, and will be run by root, we use a specific
# user (the user who installed) to run ColdFusion
CF_DIR="/opt/cfusion/clu1_man"
RUNTIME_USER=""cfusion""
su $RUNTIME_USER -c "$CF_DIR/bin/jrun -start cfusion >& $CF_DIR/logs/cfusion-event.log &"
su $RUNTIME_USER -c "$CF_DIR/bin/jrun -config $CF_DIR/bin/jvm.config_clu1 -start clu1_01 >& $CF_DIR/logs/cfusion-event.log &"
su $RUNTIME_USER -c "$CF_DIR/bin/jrun -config $CF_DIR/bin/jvm.config_clu2 -start clu1_02 >& $CF_DIR/logs/cfusion-event.log &"
Hope it helps a bit.

Cannot start coldfusion 9 server

After several weeks of running CF9 on my PC, I can no longer start the server. I am running Apache 2.2 under windows with CF9. It gives me the following error message in the jrun4/logs/cfusion-out log:
FATAL ERROR in native method: JDWP No transports initialized, jvmtiError=AGENT_ERROR_TRANSPORT_INIT(197)

and this is the error in the apache2.2 error log:

Any ideas??

Thanks! I now have an error that I can chase and hopefully diagnose.
"Error: no known VMs. (check for corrupt jvm.cfg file)" was the exposed error.
With a little big of the Goog I ended up with a solution from another CF user experiencing the same joys: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/795168
Found the problem to be as I suspected some incorrect path. It was the java.home variable that was incorrect. java.home=<IncorrectDrive>:/ColdFusion9/runtime/jre I changed that to java.home=C:/ColdFusion9/runtime/jre and it fired up just fine. Solved!

ColdFusion Server Settings box is blank

I finally got my copy of CFBuilder 2, and I've been trying to get it set up for my projects. When editing code, I have a "Firefox" and "IE" tab at the bottom of the editor window, but when I click on either one (or if I click on the green "Run" button in the toolbar), I get the following message:
Server is not configured with the project.
Along with instructions about how to configure the server settings. However, when I do (project->properties->ColdFusion Server Settings), that box is completely blank, other than the "Restore Defaults" and "Apply" buttons.
What gives?

Ok, somehow I managed to figure it out. I ended up with a double "http://" in the server path, so I nuked it and started over.
Now my problem is a 404 when I preview in my browser.
I have CF8 installed locally, running on localhost:8500. I have C:/ColdFusion8/wwwroot/ as my local path, and folders for each project under that (example: planning).
I'm assuming since my project path is C:/ColdFusion8/wwwroot/planning/ and my "Sample URL" is http://localhost:8500/planning/ that previewing the index.cfm file in that folder should give me the proper URL. But I get a "File not found" error.
I can browse to the file in Firefox and view it fine, so I suspect a pathing problem.

Starting ColdFusion OS X

Okay, I'm on a mac pro quad-core intel xeon, trying to get
the coldfusion server started. I'm working through the Flex 3
Training from the Source book & I've tried the supplied
(appendix a) terminal command of
./jrun -start cfusion in
driveroot:/cfusionFlexTFS/bin directory with
-bash: JRun: command not found results... I've tried using
the CFusion Launcher as well to no avail. Perhaps I'm doing
something wrong or need to update something for 64 bit ... ? Please
help point me in the right direction if you have a moment.
Thank you kindly,

bad install of coldfusion ... copy zip file to driveroot,
then open (after an uninstall).

Error When Starting Coldfusion

I just installed Coldfusion, I don't think I configured my
external APACHE webserver correctly because I cannot open a cmf
(administration) file. When I try to go to the admin login it just
asks me to download the login.cfm file rather than actually showing
me the file!
Also when I start coldfusion I get this error saying
something couldn't be loaded. I'm so lost, please help!

Ok great, BUT it is going to ask me where to install the root
files which is CFIDE (the administrator).... On apache my root is
/var/www/vhosts/defult/
Should I install it there or the default? Because once I get
apache to work with coldfusion and I don't include port 8500 it
won't know where to find the CFIDE files since it is not in the
root apache directory.
Also you said to use LOCALHOST when trying ot access it. Can
I use my ip address because it is held on a server far from me. Or
do I have to remote dekstop into the unix server?
Using the ip address didnt work
http://72.35.76.29:8500/CFIDE/administrator/login.cfm
also note that I used all teh defaults for coldfusion AND started
it. Below is a screen straight from SSH

Errors while installation "Failed to start Directory server instance"

i appreciate if someone can help me in this issue.

Enterprise Linux is designed for industry standard server hardware. It supports a limited and well known range of peripherals in order to provide commercial support and high reliability.
If you need Linux for any Laptop or Desktop PC, choose a Desktop Linux distribution, like Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, etc.
Your best option to run Enterprise Linux on non supported hardware is to use hardware virtualization like free Oracle Virtualbox. More information see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html. IMO, there is no compelling reason to try to install Enterprise Linux using dual boot or relying on 3rd party driver software.

PHP on a COLDFUSION SERVER

Hi,
I have the following question: Is it possible to get PHP
running on a Coldfusion server? I have a forum in php which I want
to be displayed on the webpage running under Coldfusion.
Is this possible? What would be the best solution?
Regards,
Kabbi Thkek

Well no, not inside a page. You can not embed PHP code in a
CFM file
and expect the ColdFusion engine to know what to do with it,
anymore
then you can embed CFML code in a PHP file and expect the PHP
engine to
understand it.
You can cross process with frames, as mentioned. Since then
each
request will be sent to the appropiate engine by the web
server.
You can also use web services to pass information from one
app server to
the other.
With ColdFusion you could use the CFHTTP tag to call a PHP
page and
process what it returns. I'm sure PHP has similar
functionality.
Those are the three ideas I could come up with.

Help needed in starting Coldfusion

I have download coldfusion trial version and I would like
very much to know how to start cold fusion and start using
it.

Can u let me know on which OS the cold fusion is installed?
According to that in case of windows u can restart it using
command prompt
1) go to the path cf_root/bin and there type a command
jrun.exe -start cfusion
Note :- cfusion is the service name that has to be started.
2) In case to start the JRun
go to path cf_root/bin and jrun.exe -start admin
Check by netstat the ports assigned to the coldfusion server
must be in listen state.

Restarting Coldfusion Server

Hi All,
Is there anyway we can restart the coldfusion server through any code or Admin API?
We are having coldfusion MX 7. We do not have access to to the server for restarting. Every time we need to wait for the Administrator to restart it.
I want to know is there any Admin API which we can use to restart the server?
Thanks in advance for your help..:)

Have you looked at the docs? Only relevant one is serverinstance.cfc - "Start, stop, and restart JRun servers. This CFC only works when running the multiserver configuration"
Generally a website wouldn't have permissions to restart a Windows service, so no.

How to turn off / disable a Coldfusion Server?

I have a Coldfusion MX 7 server running on a test machine.
This server is just for testing applications on the local machine
(of which I am the administrator of). At times I also use this same
machine to do 3D Rendering. When the Coldfusion server is running
it hogs a lot of precious RAM unecessarily. I count 7 services
running in the task manager related to the Coldfusion server.
How do I disable or turn off the Coldfusion server upon
bootup? Either set something so that it will not run at all upon
bootup, or be able to somehow shut the CF server down, so that no
services for it are running after booting up. In other words
sometimes I would like the CF server to run, other times I don't
want it running AT ALL. How can I do this? After searching the CF
docs I have come up with no answer..
Any help would be most appreciated!

Coldfusion runs as a service. You can manage them by going to
start > Administrative tools > Service (or by going to start
> run > services.msc). This will list all of the services
running on the system. There are several services that may be
running, depending on what type of installation you did. You can
either stop or disable these (by stopping, the service will start
again the next time you reboot; disabling prevents them from
starting on startup - this may still require you to stop the
service... if you disable you will have to re-enable the next time
you want to use CF).
Some of the services you may have to stop:
Macromedia CFMX
Macromedia JRun Cfusion Server
ColdFusion MX 7 ODBC Agent
ColdFusion MX 7 ODBC Server
ColdFusion MX 7 Search Server
