Chapter 2: Installing the Server
Configuration
The ColdFusion server configuration contains an embedded copy of Macromedia JRun from Adobe and is most
similar to earlier versions of ColdFusion.
Note: The cf_root directory refers to your installation directory. By default, this directory is C:\ColdFusion9 in Windows,
and /opt/coldfusion9 in UNIX.
