INSTALLING COLDFUSION 9

Installing the J2EE Configuration

Last updated 1/20/2012

Install ColdFusion 9 on WebLogic

1 Run the ColdFusion installation wizard, choosing the J2EE configuration.

The installation wizard places the WAR files in the install directory.

2 Determine the WebLogic domain in which to deploy ColdFusion 9. Optionally, create a domain.

3 Because ColdFusion 9 must run from an expanded directory structure, expand the cfusion.war and rds.war files

manually, and expand the web applications by doing the following:

a Open a console window, navigate to the directory that contains the WAR files, and create a directory for the

ColdFusion WAR file (named whatever you want the context root to be) and the RDS WAR file (named CFIDE):

cd cf_install_directory

md cfusion (Windows, mkdir cfusion on UNIX)

md CFIDE (Windows, mkdir CFIDE on UNIX)

b Change to the cfusion directory and expand the cfusion.war file with the jar command:

cd cfusion

java_home/bin/jar -xvf ../cfusion.war

c Go up one level to the install directory:

cd ..

d Go to the CFIDE directory and expand the rds.war file with the jar command:

cd CFIDE

java_home/bin/jar -xvf ../rds.war

4 Open the weblogic.policy file. On WebLogic 10, the file is located in the BEA_HOME/wlserver_10.0/server/lib/

directory. In a text editor, comment out the restrictive permissions, and add permission

java.security.AllPermission; to the default permissions section, as the following example shows:

...

// default permissions granted to all domains

grant {

permission java.security.AllPermission;

permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.version", "read";

permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vendor", "read";

...

permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vm.name", "read";

};

...

5 Deploy the cfusion and CFIDE directory structures using your site-specific WebLogic deployment method.

6 Ensure that the following jars are in the startup script’s classpath.

WEB-INF/cfusion/lib/jintegra.jar

WEB-INF/flex/jars/cfgatewayadapter.jar

WEB-INF/flex/jars/concurrent.jar

7 Review the console messages and server log to ensure that ColdFusion 9 deployed successfully.

8 Start the ColdFusion Administrator, which runs the Configuration wizard.

9 To install any other integrated Adobe or third-party technologies, see “Installing Integrated Technologies” on
