I'm not aware of the tech note you mention (but someone else on this may be!), but as you allude to, it's not so much an issue with verity, it's an issue of having ColdFusion's flashgateway.jar added to the top level jvm.config classpath. If by adding support for verity you lump the entire /WEB-INF/cfusion/lib into the top level jvm.config classpath, then this is not advisable if you also want to have Flex and CF on the same JRun server as flashgateway.jar also resides in this directory.
Of the three options you outline, the last one is the most desirable, but we would need to know why they suggested adding verity support libraries to the top level jvm.config classpath to address this. The next easiest solution is to go with your second option. To do this I think you could move the cf-specific gateway to somewhere like this: /WEB-INF/cfusion/amflib Then all we need to ensure is that the CF bootstrap classloader can find the gateway servlet class in this new location. I'd try updating the cf.class.path setting in /WEB-INF/web.xml: <context-param id="macromedia_context_88"> <param-name>cf.class.path</param-name> <param-value>./WEB-INF/cfusion/lib/cfusion.jar,./WEB-INF/cfusion/amflib/flas hgateway.jar</param-value> </context-param> I apologize that I haven't tried this out. I'm not from the CF team and I use ColdFusion on a day-to-day basis. If this doesn't work then we'd need to get more information from the CF team.

The specific config setting that causes the problem is adding verity support, so if you don't need that you should be fine. The question is whether there is a standard way to set it up so that you can have both CFMX with verity and Flex running at the same time. The relevant docs here: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/instal17.htm My guess that the solution would be one of: * Move the verity files elsewhere and change the JVM config path to point to the new location. * Remove flashgateway.jar from the cfusion/lib directory of any CFMX server instances and reconfigure the web.xml if necessary so that it uses the one in JRun/lib. * Modify the classloader settings so that the classpath setting for each CFMX server instance doesn't affect the whole server. Rather than playing around to figure out which (if any) of those options would work, it would be nice if we could get official confirmation from Macromedia, or a link to a technote that answers this. I have a feeling that I have seen a technote along those lines, but it was a long time ago and I can't find it now.
