Configuring database connection and debugging options

Prior to ColdFusion development, use the ColdFusion MX Administrator to define the connection to the sample database file and any optional debugging options.

To access the ColdFusion Administrator, do either of the following:

Note: If you are ceasing the ColdFusion MX Administrator from a remote client, you must replace localhost with the host name or IP address of the computer where ColdFusion MX is installed.

The following sections describe how to establish a connection to the sample tutorial database file and how to enable optional debugging settings.

Comments are no longer accepted for ColdFusion MX 6.1. ColdFusion 8 is the current version.

I just installed the J2EE configuration on JRun option and I am getting nothing through port 8500 -- Administrator nor Flash Remoting

I believe the default port for the J2EE Configuration is 8300 not 8500.

Yes. The port for the J2EE Configuration is 8300.

How can we connect to Database using Flash Action Script? Tell me the steps to follow

Try This!!...Reddy
#include "NetServices.as"
#include "Dataglue.as"
// uncomment this line when you want to use the NetConnect debugger
#include "NetDebug.as"
if (inited == null) {
// do this code only once
inited = true;
// set the default gateway URL (this is used only in authoring)
NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://YOURIPADDRESS/flashservices/gateway");
// connect to the gateway
gateway_conn = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();
// get a reference to a service
myService = gateway_conn.getService("YourFolderName.YourCFCFILENAME", this);
myService.getYourFunction();
//myService.getTheToken();
}
stop();
