Installing and Using ColdFusion MX for J2EE Previous Up One Level Next
Installing on Sun ONE Application Server 7


Enabling specific ColdFusion MX functionality

For some ColdFusion MX functionality to work properly, you must manually configure your application server. This section describes what to do for the following functionality:

Accessing COM objects (Windows)

This section explains how to enable Component Object Model (COM) support in Windows after installing ColdFusion MX.

To enable COM support:

  1. Open the Sun ONE administrative console, go to Application Server Instances > servername > JVM Settings > Path Settings, and add the following libraries to either the Native Library Path Prefix or Native Library Path Suffix text box:
  2. Click Save.
  3. In the Sun ONE administrative console, go to Application Server Instances > servername > JVM Settings > JVM Options and add the following:
    -DJINTEGRA_NATIVE_MODE -DJINTEGRA_PREFETCH_ENUMS
  4. Click the General tab and then click Apply Changes. These changes take effect when the Sun One Application Server is restarted.

Enabling charting and graphing

This section describes how to configure your application server to use ColdFusion MX charting and graphing (cfchart, cfchartdata, and cfchartseries tags).

To enable charting and graphing:

  1. Open the Sun ONE administrative console, go to Application Server Instances > servername > JVM Settings > JVM Options, and add the following:
    -Djava.awt.graphicsenv=com.gp.java2d.ExGraphicsEnvironment
-Xbootclasspath/a:cf_root/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib/webchartsJava2D.jar
  2. Click the General tab and then click Apply Changes. These changes take effect when the Sun One Application Server is restarted.

Supporting Verity searches

To use the Verity search engine and the cfcollection, cfindex, and cfsearch tags, you must enable Verity searching. To enable Verity, you must configure the library search path to find the Verity binary files. (The Verity files are in the cf_root\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib directory in Windows, and the cf_root/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib directory on UNIX.)

To configure Sun ONE for Verity:

  1. Open the Sun ONE administrative console, select Application Server Instances > servername > JVM Settings > Path Settings, and add the following libraries to either the Native Library Path Prefix or the Native Library Path Suffix text box:
  2. Click Save.
  3. Click the General tab, and then click Apply Changes. These changes take effect when the Sun One Application Server is restarted.

Disabling RDS

For security reasons, Macromedia recommends that you disable RDS on a production server. If you install and enable RDS support, you can disable it later by undeploying it.

Note:   If RDS is disabled, the Browse Server button does not work in the ColdFusion MX Administrator (for example, on the ColdFusion Mappings page).

To disable RDS, you must do the following:

For instructions on disabling the RDS Servlet, see "Using RDS". The following procedure describes how to disable the RDS web application.

To disable the RDS web application:

  1. Open a console window.
  2. Issue the following command:
    sunone_root/bin/asadminundeploy -u user -w password -H servername -p port 
--type web --instance instancename rds

    For example:

    asadminundeploy-uadmin-wfoonight-HSERV01-p4848--type web--instance server1rds

These instructions require two updates in the "enabling additional functionality" section

* for CFCHART, -Djava.awt.graphicsenv=com.gp.java2d.ExGraphicsEnvironment
should now be -Djava.awt.graphicsenv=com.gp.java2d.ExHeadlessGraphicsEnvironment
* for Verity, "and add the following libraries to either the Native Library Path Prefix or the Native Library Path Suffix text box:" should now read "and add the following libraries to the Native Library Path Prefix text box:"
