Hey all -
I'm struggling with a CF8 install on CentOS/Apache 2.2.3. I've been away from
CF for about a year, so I'm a little rusty, but I can't track this down for the
life of me. Here are the highlights of the install:
1. ColdFusion installs happily.
2. Before starting the server, I edit
/opt/coldfusion8/bin/connectors/apache-connector.sh. Even though I specified
the paths during install, a lingering bug doesn't properly populate the script
with my paths.
3. I start ColdFusion for the first time which executes cf-connectors.sh.
4. I verify that the JRun info is inserted into my httpd.conf file. It is.
5. I restart both Apache & ColdFusion to ensure that everyone's happy. They
are.
Once everything's restarted successfully, I try to load
http://mysite/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm only to get a prompt asking me
whether I'd like to download index.cfm. I've done about 10 reinstalls at this
point and simply can't find the problem. The relevant outtake from my
httpd.conf file is shown below. In addition, index.cfm was added to my
DirectoryIndex list.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I can't think of anything else to
try.

I can not see any reason from here but I can suggest to check my simple
tutorial on how CF installation runs on a Linux box.

I also suggest to check out Steven Erat's blog
(http://www.talkingtree.com/blog/) for Linux issues.

Thanks, Oguz. The issue, though, is actually even stranger than that. It
works properly on Safari, just not in Firefox. Here's a blog post that
describes _exactly_ what I'm seeing:

For now, I'm just using Safari. Be nice to know what's going on, though.

I have plan to get a MAC soon. Than I can give some more ideas. :)
