Switching from another web server
You can switch from an external web server to the built-in
ColdFusion web server without reinstalling, even if you did not
select it during installation.
Switch from an external web server to the built-in web server
Back up the jrun.xml file.
This file is
in the cf_root\runtime\servers\default\SERVER-INF directory
in Windows, and in the cf_root/runtime/servers/default/SERVER-INF
directory in UNIX.
Open the original jrun.xml file for editing.
Locate the WebService service and set the deactivated attribute
to false:
<service class="jrun.servlet.http.WebService" name="WebService">
<attribute name="port">8500</attribute>
<attribute name="interface">*</attribute>
<attribute name="deactivated">false</attribute>
...
</service>
Locate the ProxyService service and set the deactivated attribute
to true:
<service class="jrun.servlet.jrpp.JRunProxyService" name="ProxyService">
<attribute name="activeHandlerThreads">8</attribute>
<attribute name="minHandlerThreads">1</attribute>
<attribute name="maxHandlerThreads">1000</attribute>
<attribute name="mapCheck">0</attribute>
<attribute name="threadWaitTimeout">20</attribute>
<attribute name="backlog">500</attribute>
<attribute name="deactivated">true</attribute>
...
Save the file.
Copy the CFM pages in your web root directory (including
the CFIDE and cfdocs directories) to the ColdFusion cf_root/wwwroot
directory, and use appropriate URL references (for example, http://localhost:8500/YourApp1/index.cfm).
If you switch from the built-in web server to an external web server,
copy the contents of the cf_root/wwwroot directory to your
web server root. If you are using Adobe Dreamweaver, ensure that
you reconfigure any sites that you move from one server to another.
Restart ColdFusion.
To switch to another web server,
follow the instructions for the appropriate web server on your platform
in Configuring web servers.
