ADOBE COLDFUSION 8
Installing and Using ColdFusion
You do this by configuring the search paths to find the required binary files, which are located in the
cf_webapp_root\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib directory.
Configure search paths
1
Make a backup copy of the setupCmdLine.bat file, located in the websphere_root\AppServer\bin directory.
2 Open the original file for editing and add the following on a single line before the line that starts with SET
WAS_CLASSPATH:
SET CF_APPS_PATH=cf_webapp_root\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib
Replace cf_webapp_root with the path to your web application directory; for example, enter the following:
SET CF_APPS_PATH=%WAS_HOME%\installedApps\%WAS_CELL%\
Adobe_ColdFusion_8.ear\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib
3 Add the CF_APPS_PATH variable to the WAS_CLASSPATH by appending the following text to the path
statement:
;%CF_APPS_PATH%
The WAS_CLASSPATH line should look similar to the following:
SET
WAS_CLASSPATH=%WAS_HOME%/properties;%WAS_HOME%/lib/bootstrap.jar;%WAS_HOME%/lib/j2ee.
jar;%WAS_HOME%/lib/lmproxy.jar;%WAS_HOME%/lib/urlprotocols.jar;%CF_APPS_PATH%
4 Save the file.
5 Add the full path to the cf_webapp_root\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib directory to the WAS_PATH variable in the
setupCmdLine.bat file. The WAS_PATH line should look similar to the following:
SET WAS_PATH=%WAS_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\bin;%PATH%;C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\bin;C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere MQ\java\bin;C:/Program
Files/IBM/WebSphere MQ/WEMPS\bin;%CF_APPS_PATH%;
6 Save the file.

You enable Component Object Model (COM) support in Windows after installing ColdFusion 8 so that you can
use the
cfreport tag with Crystal Reports. COM support is not required for the ColdFusion Report Builder or
any reports that you create with the ColdFusion reporting feature.
