ADOBE COLDFUSION 8
Installing and Using ColdFusion
java_home The root directory of your Java 2 software development kit (J2SDK); for example, C:\j2sdk1.4.1.
When you deploy ColdFusion on an existing version of IBM WebSphere, you must expand the EAR file or WAR
files manually before deployment.
Expand the EAR file
1 Open a console window, navigate to the directory that contains the EAR file, and make a new directory named
cfusion-ear:
md cfusion-ear (mkdir cfusion-ear on UNIX)
2 Change to the cfusion-ear directory and expand the cfusion.ear file with the jar command:
cd cfusion-ear
java_home/bin/jar -xvf ../cfusion.ear
This expands the cfusion.ear file into cfusion.war and rds.war (rds.war is not included if you specified a
context root of / when you ran the installation wizard).
3 In cfusion-ear, make a new directory named cfusion-war.
md cfusion-war (mkdir cfusion-war on UNIX)
4 Change to the cfusion-war directory and expand the cfusion.war file with the jar command:
cd cfusion-war
java_root/bin/jar -xvf ../cfusion.war
This expands the cfusion.war file.
5 (If rds.war exists) Go up one level to cfusion-ear, make a new directory named rds-war.
cd ..
md rds-war (mkdir rds-war on UNIX)
6 (If rds.war exists) Change to the rds-war directory and expand rds.war with the jar command:
cd rds-war
java_root/bin/jar -xvf ../rds.war
This expands rds.war.
7 Go up one level to the cfusion-ear file, and delete the cfusion.war and rds.war files:
cd ..
del cfusion.war (rm cfusion.war on UNIX)
del rds.war (rm rds.war on UNIX)
8 Open the cfusion-ear/META-INF/application.xml file in a text editor.
