It appears as though I don't have a stand-alone (if that's the proper term) Java installation on my server, rather I've got Cold Fusion/JRun's implementation of Java, which may not provide the functionality the CF component I'm testing expects.

Yes, I am a little confused. I have been programming Cold Fusion for several years, but I am relatively new to Linux and very new to Java. So trying to troubleshoot something that involves all three has been quite interesting.

I will do just that.
