cfmx j2ee and jrun
Greetings, could someone iron out this query for me, I'm just a little confused about the right or best configuration of tools to be using, I went on the Macromedia site to the get the latest updater for cfmx, and found CFMX for J2EE, on further reading this is a version of CFMX that will sit on top of the J2EE application server as opposed to IIS. This sounds like a very powerful integration, but since we want to keep our integration with IIS, but also down the line use Java, EJB and jsp integrated solutions along with CFMX I'm wondering what is the best set up. I assumed that CFMX not CFMX for J2EE has a built in version of JRUN that will handle JSP and CFML seamless integration, is this true? and if so am I right in thinking there is no other configurations required in order to run jsp's once CFMX has been installed. And if this is true, is CFMX as good on its own as the MM JRUN server which is a cheaper version of the J2EE server. And if you wish to use JRUN why not go out the whole hog for J2EE. Does anyone see where I am going with this. If someone could give me advice on this I would be very grateful, I am probably over worrying here, but it would be nice to know what be the best JAVA CFMX integrated solution for future scalability. respectfully, J. ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.

CFMX for J2EE sits on another _Java_ server as instead of JRun. You will still need the web server of your choice to serve the application.

Not sure what you're getting at here, but you don't get a J2EE server (not even the cut down JRun server) with CFMX for J2EE. You have to purchase this yourself. > And if you wish to use JRUN why not go out the whole hog for J2EE. > JRun is a J2EE server I believe. > If someone could give me advice on this I would be very grateful, > I am probably over worrying here, but it would be nice to know what be the > best JAVA CFMX integrated solution > for future scalability. > If you want a Java/CF server solution, you will need to investigate the various J2EE servers that are now available (commercial and open source), purchase the one that meets your need and then purchase CFMX for J2EE to sit on top of this server Hope this makes things clearer for you.
