INSTALLING COLDFUSION 9

Installing the J2EE Configuration

Last updated 1/20/2012

Enable ColdFusion security and graphing support in UNIX

1 Open the startup script for the WebLogic domain, which is typically the startWebLogic.sh file, which is located in

the wldomain_root\bin directory.

2 Establish or append to the following variables:

• CF_SECURITY_JVM_OPTIONS

• CF_GRAPHING_JVM_OPTIONS

• MEM_ARGS

If you are not using JRockit, append -Xms32m -Xmx512m -Xss64k -XX:MaxPermSize=128m to the existing

MEM_ARGS line of the startup script.

If you are using JRockit, append -Xms32m -Xmx512m -Xss64k to the existing MEM_ARGS line of the startup

script.

• JAVA_OPTIONS

Append the CF_SECURITY_JVM_OPTIONS variable to the existing JAVA_OPTIONS line of the startup

script)

For example:

# Security options are only required if enabling sandbox security

CF_SECURITY_JVM_OPTIONS="-Djava.security.manager"

CF_GRAPHING_JVM_OPTIONS="-Djava.awt.headless=true"

# You must append ${CF_SECURITY_JVM_OPTIONS} and ${CF_GRAPHING_JVM_OPTIONS}

# to the existing JAVA_OPTIONS value.

# JAVA_OPTIONS="default java options ${CF_SECURITY_JVM_OPTIONS}

${CF_GRAPHING_JVM_OPTIONS}"

# You must append the following to the MEM_ARGS variable coded

# in the server startup file:

# "-Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m"

3 Save the startup script and restart the WebLogic Server.

Deploying ColdFusion 9 on Oracle Application Server 10g

The following instructions assume that you installed the J2EE configuration of ColdFusion 9 and that the EAR file to

deploy is under C:\ColdFusion_J2ee\cfusion.ear.

Before you deploy ColdFusion on Oracle 10g, ensure that the following is true:

• Oracle Application Server 10g is installed and running.

• You set up an OC4J J2EE container for the ColdFusion installation. Adobe recommends that you create an OC4J

instance for ColdFusion to avoid potential classpath issues with other applications.

• (Recommended, but not required) You created an OC4J instance. To do so, connect to the Oracle Application

Server using Enterprise Manager and create an OC4J instance. By default the HTTP URL is

http://machineName:1810. If 1810 is unavailable, the next available port in sequential order is used.

• You increased the heap size to at least 256 MB (although 512 MB is preferred). To do so, select the OC4J instance

in Enterprise Manager, and select Administration / Server Properties. Under the Command Line Options category,

add -Xmx256M to the Java Options, and then restart the OC4J instance.

Deploy ColdFusion 9 on Oracle 10g

1 Ensure that the application server and the OC4J instance are running.
