Yes, but somehow it's not working...... I really don't see why they just can't create an install script to handle this problem.

The .jsp just goes to a dead page not loading anything.I am confused as to where to put the flex parts under coldfusion to work, or since I have the Ent. version how do I use the flex capabilities in my web apps.Fustrating me to death.PaulIf it's just a question of pricing, it's definitely less expensive
to buy a separate JRun license - $899 - than to upgrade from CFMX
Standard to CFMX Enterprise, which lists at $5,999. The limitation
is that you won't be able to wrap Flex and CFMX into a single
server - the best you'll be able to do is to have them run side-by-
side using different ports.
As to the qualitative differences between JRun and Tomcat, it
depends on what you're doing with Flex. If the goal is to use Flex
to communicate with Java classes as remote objects, I'd rather host
Flex within JRun than Tomcat, if only for the more powerful
administrative interface. But if you're limiting yourself to
communicating with ColdFusion CFC's through Flash Remoting, the Flex
server will have minimal work to do, and JRun might be overkill.
Either way, without CFMX Enterprise, you'll have to run a separate
J2EE server, as with CFMX Standard you can't separate CF from its
integrated JRun.
As to why Macromedia includes Flex with CF Ent but not Flex, the 2
product management teams would be the only ones qualified to comment.
And all that having been said, definitely talk to your Macromedia
sales rep as Matt recommended - who knows what miracles they can
accomplish?
