Webmaster Forum / ColdFusion / Server Administration / April 2006

architecture as a keystone technology.
In all of that time, I've *never* had the problems I've had with installing

We have a CFMX 7 server at work which has been set up for application
development and testing.  It is intended to server multiple developers whose
applications run on different, distinct cfmx production servers.   Some of
these apps use CF native session management while others ...

I am trying to set up a cluster with two cfmx7 servers.  I would like to use a
separate file server so that there is only one set of files to maintain for the
application.  I cannot get this to work as there are part of the application

Sites on the server started to fail.  The administrator site stopped working -
accessing the menu items generated file not found errors.  Sites on the server

I'm running CFMX6.1 with all the current updates loaded (... of that I'm about
99.9% sure...) and I'd like to know:
What exactly is "Save Class Files" for under the CF Administrator mean?
I know what the blurb by the checkbox says, but I don't understand the

For some reason, when I bring my clustered instances up now, I get the
following message:
"The web application 'cfusion.ear#cfusion.war' could not be found to accept
sessions for replication."

I installed MX7 and the "built-in" web server on an XP Pro development machine,
but then I realized that I really wanted to go through IIS.  I tried running
IIS_connector.bat and editing jrun.xml.  Finally, I  tried uninstalling and
