Installation considerations for all platforms

The following are installation considerations for all platforms:

Installation considerations for Windows

The following installation considerations are for Windows systems only:

Do not configure the server running ColdFusion as a Primary Domain Controller (PDC) or Backup

Domain Controller (BDC). Adobe follows the Microsoft network model, in which the first level is the

PDC or BDC. These systems only manage the network or domain and are not designed to run

application servers. ColdFusion should reside on the second level of Microsoft Windows stand-alone

systems. Stand-alone servers can participate in a network or domain.

Microsoft Windows XP handles only ten incoming TCP/IP connections concurrently. Therefore, Adobe

does not recommend using this operating system in a production environment; use Microsoft Windows

2003 Server and Windows 2008 Server instead.

Installation considerations for UNIX

The following are installation considerations for UNIX systems only:

For troubleshooting purposes, the installer creates the following log file during an installation or

upgrade in UNIX: /Adobe_ColdFusion_10_InstallLog.log. If you contact AdobeTechnicalcf_root

Support for installation support, send them this file.

If you are deploying the J2EE configuration on a platform other than Linux or Solaris, use the

ColdFusion_10_WWEJ_java.jar. This Java-only installer does not include features that require

platform-specific binary files, such as C++ CFX support.

Installing the Server Configuration

Installing the Server configuration

The ColdFusion server configuration contains an embedded copy of Tomcat and is most similar to earlier

versions of ColdFusion.

The cf_root directory refers to your installation directory. By default, this directory is

C:\ColdFusion10 in Windows, and /opt/coldfusion10 in UNIX.
