Re: Installing CFMX on Mac OS X (root user?)
Looks like you deployed your WAR to the wrong directory. The directory tree should be: /Applications /JRun4 /servers /default /SERVER-INF /cfusion -- expand cfusion.war into here /META-INF /WEB-INF /cfdocs /CFIDE /administrator ... /CFIDE -- expand rds.war into here /META-INF /WEB-INF rds.properties You'll probably be better off deleting the whole JRun install and starting over now since you've got a bunch of directories to clean up...

Re: Installing CFMX on Mac OS X (root user?)
If you can't successfully run the jar command chances are you're probably not in the right directory, and if you aren't giving it path information to the file the jar command probably just can't find the file you're trying to unjar. I wrote up some instructions for the EAR deployment here that may help a bit: http://mattwoodward.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=entryentry=288A9AE3-3048-2950-E06AC9A4628DA7A8 The WAR deployment is a lot easier, however, so I'd go with that installation type if I were you. I just thought maybe those instructions would give you some insight about the command line stuff. I've been meaning to write up some annotated WAR deployment instructions but I haven't had time yet. I think since it sounds like you may have stuff in the wrong place, etc. you might just want to delete the files you've expanded and start over, following the directions very, very carefully. They really do work. I'll post again if I get a chance to do some annotated WAR instructions because this really is a much simpler procedure than the EAR deployment.

Yes, if I understand what you're saying this is correct. Just remember that to start at the root you have to have a / at the beginning of your path, otherwise it'll start drilling down from your current directory. So if your war file is in /Powerbook/Applications (remember Unix is case-sensitive as well, so /PowerBook/Applications and /Powerbook/Applications are NOT the same thing ...), then you would just have to point to that directory with your jar command. I can do that? I can just delete the folders that the jar file created and just start over? How do I correctly tell the jar file where to install the war files? Yes, you can delete what you have and start over. Not sure I get what you mean about telling the jar file where to install the war files--you designate this during the installation process. In the end it doesn't matter where your war files are as long as you know where they are so you can point to the right place when you're doing the extraction, but if you want to follow the directions to the letter, it's probably a lot easier if you tell the installer to create the war files in the exact same place as in the instructions.

RE: Installing CFMX on Mac OS X (root user?)
and I can't successfully run the 'jar -xvf' command. All this command does is extract the contents of the JAR/WAR/EAR file into a directory. The JAR format is actually just a ZIP file. Presumably, the reason this doesn't work for you is that the jar executable isn't in your path. So, you can either find out the correct path and explicitly specify it or set it as an environment variable, or you can use any zip-compatible tool to extract the files for you. I do this on Windows all the time by just renaming the files from .war to .zip and using WinZip or the built-in Windows zip tools in XP and Windows Server 2003. I created the directories (cfusion and CFIDE) under the default directory in my servers directory under jrun, which is in my applications folder. Did I screw that up? You will want to extract cfusion.war and rds.war into your application server's directory. On my Windows machine, that ends up being something like this: c:\jrun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear. Presumably, if you install into the default instance of JRun, you'd have something like c:\jrun4\servers\default\cfusion-ear. Obviously, your paths on OS X will be a little different, but probably not much.

Re: Installing CFMX on Mac OS X (root user?)
Sean's post is correct--while I've always just double-clicked the JAR file for the initial install (see below for the reason behind the quotes around this word) and it's worked fine for me, beyond this first step you absolutely have to use the terminal to complete the installation correctly. As for the install, this is a point of confusion for a lot of folks I've helped install CF on the Mac. The installation process does not install CF, it merely creates the files that you subsequently deploy on JRun. Maybe that's already clear to you but that seems to be a real sticking point for people who are used to running a Windows installer and being done with it. Be patient with the instructions, go through them very carefully and do exactly what they say, and it'll work. Lastly, no need to panic--you didn't screw up your machine. That's one of the beauties of the J2EE deployment. This isn't a case where a botched installation screws up your registry, etc.; worst case you have to delete some files and try again. Your machine's just fine!

Boy was I hoping I'd see you jump in here...I think this all boils down to me not really understanding how the whole .jar/unix/command line/paths thing actually works on a mac. I think I need to read something about this first before even trying to go any further. Any recommendations? I think it's not so much that I don't understand the command line unix portion, upon further reflection. It seems to be more of I just don't really understand how jrun and the whole java install process works. Does that make sense? I'm reading as carefully as I can, but I'm really stuck right on number 8. I've done 1-7 perfectly (well, maybe not perfectly, I wanted to install cfmx...okay, lemme take that back...I double clicked the jar file and wanted to install it to my applications folder, which I *thought* was Powerbook/Applications but when I double clicked Powerbook I saw that it had actually created a folder on my root called Powerbook and installed the war files into an applications folder it had created there. So rather than going into Applications it's now in Powerbook/Applications...make sense? That was my first screwup.) and as a result, I don't know exactly what I'm supposed to do once I navigate to my Applications/Jrun4/servers/default/CFIDE directory in the terminal. So that was where I just didn't know what to do... I'm here: -- If you haven't done so already, open a Terminal window (Applications/Utilities/Terminal), navigate to the cfusion directory, and use the jar utility to uncompress the cfusion.war file: cd jrun_root/jrun4/servers/servername/cfusion jar -xvf cfmx_install_directory/cfusion.war Note: In these instructions, replace jrun_root with the directory in which you installed JRun 4; for example, /Applications/jrun4. Replace servername with the name of the server to which you are deploying ColdFusion MX; for example, if you installed ColdFusion MX in the default JRun server, specify default. -- and I can't successfully run the 'jar -xvf' command. No, you don't 'run' these files. The cfusion.war and rds.war files need to be manually deployed to a new server instance creating on JRun I created the directories (cfusion and CFIDE) under the default directory in my servers directory under jrun, which is in my applications folder.

That's what page I'm reading, but it seems like it leaves out a step or two right at that 8th step...*sigh*. Do I just delete the Powerbook/Applications folder the jar file created on my root and just try again? How do I tell it to install into a CFMXJ2EE directory in my applications folder? ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:185902 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
