Rick, I've not done this for multi-server but I just did it for stand-alone so I suspect it's possible. In installed using the internal web server so I could configure the server using car files and manual settings. So I had both of them running. Then I changed the JVM file for CF9 to the prod settings, removed the apache connectors for cf 8 and installed the ones for CF 9. That worked well. With multiserver I suspect you will have to be careful with the ports and port conflicts - and I would sort of hesitate to do this on a "live" server without a test bed to proof the procedure.

I'd like to get it installed, get all the instances set up and configured BEFORE taking the site down reconfigure the web server connections... but I'm not sure if this is possible. I have googled and found instructions for installing both, but it requires installing the new version FIRST (CF9) and then installing CF8 in J2EE mode, and that doesn't really work for this kind of "upgrade" Rick ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:336460 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
