Re: CFBuilder Server Setup with CF Multiserver Installation
It is not advisable to use your default cfusion instance for development. You should create another instance of cf9 and use that as your development server. The default instance should only be used to manage your instances. I personally don't know of anything preventing cfbuilder from connecting to it, but i wouldn't be surprised if there was something about the cfusion instance that prevents it. If you make changes in your cfusion instance, then create a new instance of cf9, the changes you made to cfusion will automatically be copied to your new instance. (datasources, mappings, etc) So keep cfusion as clean as possible so you have it to deploy clean instances when you need it. On the flip side of that, be sure you install all your hotfixes before creating new instances, so that the new instances you create will also have the current patches. If you have to install a hotfix after instances are created, you have to update each instance individually as well as the cfusion instance. I put together a presentation detailing how to install multi-server. http://slidesix.com/view/Installing-Multiple-Versions-of-ColdFusion-Together Hope that helps!

Client Variables database problem
i know i've gotten this error before and found a fix for it before, but for the life of me i can not find how to fix it. I'm getting the following error at the bottom of my pages: 500 Operation failed on the data source named "ClientVariables". Operation failed on the data source named "ClientVariables". this is CF7 on a windows machine. i installed the hotfix yesterday, so i'm unsure if that is what started this error. unfortunately the client variables are not really being used by the site, but i need to keep them active for legacy applications that need to be upgraded. anyone remember what the quick fix is?

Multiserver Step Debugging with CF8
I'm new to step debugging and new to Eclipse. I'm desperate to use the step debugging feature to track down a problem. My hangup is turning on the debugging in a multiserver environment. Our site has two instances running. I've found instructions to edit the jrun/bin/jvm.config file with the following line -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005 Unfortunately when I choose the RDS server name under debug as, I get the following error: Error connecting to JVM for debugging at localhost:5005. Could not attach to the VM at port 5005 You must specify this debugger port in the JVM settings of your application server, for example: -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005 You will also need to make sure that another debugger is not currently connected to the CF JVM at the same port (5005) Root cause -> Connection refused: connect So what am I doing wrong? I'm the only one working with debugging on this server, so that's not the problem. Also, I want to use this on both servers. Do I need to set up separate ports for them? Do they need separate jvm.config files?
