Topic: ColdFusion

Has anyone sucessfully installed ColdFusion on e-smith (either CF version 4.5.1 or 5)? I've recently tried with both versions, and have been unable to install them. I haven't had a chance to install it on a standard RedHat build (as recommended) so I'm not sure if it's an e-smith issue, or just something I'm doing wrong. I figured before I spent more time on it I'd see if anyone else had tried it...

I had the same question and i put it directly to mitel themselves
the reply i got back was that the havent tried it and couldnt let me know
so i solved the problem by instaling it on an internal red hat machine and forwarded the port to the internal web server

I managed to get it working in the end. I did two things to get it working (I'm not sure which one is required, but I'll probably be testing this shortly):

- I installed CF5 with the RH RPM. This puts the CFIDE dir in /var/www/html. So, I changed the primary web directory to this.

- I chmod'ed everything to 0755, and chown'ed to admin.shared. I have a suspicion that this is what fixed it (including turning off the setGID bit).

I haven't had a chance to conduct full testing of this installation, but the CFIDE appears to be working. I'll endeaver to write up a short howto on this if it works. (I think the same steps will work for 4.5.1 as well).
