Read the online version of the Release Notes for
any late-breaking information or updates. For more information,
see www.adobe.com/go/learn_cfu_releasenote_en.
Ensure that your operating system meets the system requirements
described on the Adobe website at www.adobe.com/go/learn_cfu_cfsysreqs_en.
Review Installation considerations for UNIX and Installation considerations for all platforms.
Determine the answers to the questions in the section Gathering information necessary to install the server configuration.
If you plan to configure an external web server, ensure that
the web server is running.
Log in as root.
Copy the installation file that is appropriate for your platform
and locale from the DVD or Adobe website, and save it to a directory
on your local disk.
The following installation files are those
for the supported server configuration platforms:
coldfusion-90-lin.bin
coldfusion-90-sol64.bin
Using the cd command, go to the directory
that contains the installation file.
Ensure that you have executable permission for the installation
file. You can change permissions on the file by using the following
command:
chmod 777 coldfusion-90-sol64.bin
Start the installation with the following command:
./<filename>
Note: To run the UNIX installer in GUI mode, type ./<filename>
-i gui.
Follow the prompts in the installation program, and let it
run to completion.
Note: For security reasons,
it is crucial that you do not use root for the runtime user.
Start ColdFusion with the following command:
/cf_root/bin/coldfusion start
If you
specified the use of an external web server when you ran the installer, ColdFusion
automatically runs the cf_root/bin/cfmx-connectors.sh script when
it starts the first time. This shell script runs the Web Server
Configuration Tool by using the settings that you specified during
the installation. If there are problems running this script, review
the configuration and bin directory specifications, modify as necessary,
and rerun the script. You can also configure your web server by
using the scripts in cf_root/bin/connectors, as appropriate.
To stop ColdFusion, use the following
command:
/cf_root/bin/coldfusion stop
For
more information on managing processes, see Managing the ColdFusion process in UNIX.
Open ColdFusion Administrator to run the Configuration wizard.
Configure and manage your system, as described in Configuring Your System.
To install any other integrated Adobe or third-party technologies,
see Installing Integrated Technologies.
To learn about ColdFusion, read the documentation, which
is accessible through the Documentation link on the Resources page
of the ColdFusion Administrator.
