Using RDS 51
Configuring RDS for a new ColdFusion MX context root
If you change the ColdFusion MX context root after you deploy ColdFusion, you must manually
reconfigure the RDS redirector web module to specify the correct context root.
To configure the RDS redirector with the correct context root, you must change the
rds.properties file, which is located in the root directory of the RDS web module. The RDS web
module root directory is typically located in the same directory as the ColdFusion MX context
root, cf_root. For example, in Windows, the RDS root directory might be
C:\WebSphere\AppServer\installedApps\My_system\Macromedia ColdFusion MX.ear\rds.war.
The rds.properties file has one line, with the following format:
contextRoot=ColdFusion_context_root
for example,
contextRoot=cfmx
When you change the ColdFusion MX application context root, you must change this line to
specify the new ColdFusion MX context root. For example, if you change the ColdFusion MX
context root from cfmx to ColdFusionMX, change the line to:
contextRoot=ColdFusionMX
