Scorpio Beta works with Apache 2.2.4.

Just a quick note to say I was able to get CF 8 working on a fresh install of Apache version 2.2.4.

A few quick observations:

  1. During the CF install, I got a nice message reminding me to stop ColdFusion MX 7 Search Server
  2. After CF finished, I had to run the Web Server Configuration Tool again for everything to work
  3. I also had to open Port 51800 on my local firewall. I suspect this is JNDI.

My initial impressions? The installation process handled the above issues gracefully. This doesn't feel much like beta software... Remind me to tell you about an experience I had with a SQL Studio Express CTP beta once.



Editors note: I suppose I will never be hired by microsoft if I keep making these sorts of comments

I can add that it works with Apache 2.2.4, Tomcat 5.5, and CF8 deployed as a J2EE app.

Hopefully I will get around to blogging about how to set up that environment on a Windows machine in the not too distant future.

Hi,

I have XAMPP (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html...) on a Windows with Apache 2.2.4 and I have installed CF( beta without any difficulty. There was also no need to run the connector after installation. I have just selected Apache config directory and binary while installing.

FYI.

Installed CF on XAMPP for OS X http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-macosx.html . It's all up and running without any problems. I was trying to get CF running on JBoss but failed miserably.
