Railo Resin and Virtual hosts

Nov 22, 2009 6:26 PM
Rating: (Total Clicks 19)

With multiple projects running locally I prefer to use virtual hosts so I can browse to http://project1.local and http://project2.local rather than http://127.0.0.1/project1 and http://127.0.0.1/project2This is really easy in IIS ( point and click ).Apache you have to touch some configuration files but there is alot of information out there on this.With Resin it's also quite simple but there is far less information about this available.I put together this walk through on the process.And if your wondering about the performance of resin ( free edition ) Peter Bell's response should give you some confidence.I run about 70 websites on Railo and (translate)

Railo Express with Resin and 64bit jre

When I work on a Railo cfml project I use Railo express locally. The jetty express package doesn't support SES URL's which is one reason to consider using the Resin express bundle. More importantly to me is that the server I develop on is the same as the server I use in production ( on my VPS ). In this case that's resin. I run IIS and CF for my main job locally and really don't want to also run apache ( my VPS runs apache ) but Resin alone is close enough until I need to make sure my (translate)

.NET or ColdFusion ?

Umm why not both?I think having an understanding of multiple languages is a good thing. Before working with ColdFusion my preferred web language was PHP. At that time I was also writing some thick clients in VB.NET I still like to work with other languages and recently I have been brushing up on C#.So what's the point of learning languages if your not going to use them? Well occasionally you do and it can really come in handy. Recently I worked on a project that had some pre-built code in c# and they needed a Web interface to part of (translate)

This came up on FlexCoders today. Seams someone has ported FlexBuilder / FlashBuilder 4 to linux. By the looks of the screen shots it does not include design view.  Many of the devs are wanting FlashBuilder 4 for linux as the only alternative is to run a VM with Windows or use IntelliJHere is the link for more information:http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/149843I haven't tried it yet and if you have feed back it would be good to hear how well it works. Here is the official requst for FlexBuilder for linuxhttp://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-19053 (translate)

Is your ColdFusion server/site secure?

Nov 17, 2009 4:27 PM

I'm guessing there are quite a few of us out there that are both developers and also administer our servers. Being good at one thing doesn't always make you good at another. I'll often consult with someone when I set up a new server especially if it's a total new install or an unfamiliar operating system.The ColdFusion community has many such skilled people one of them is Pete Freitag.Pete put together http://www.hackmycf.com/ a site where you can run a quick report against your ColdFusion server and get back a report with detailed information on what could be a security issue (translate)

Railo GlassFish and Flex ( flash ) remoting

So dropping a Railo war on GlassFish and being up an running is easy but flashremoting dosn't work right away. As a flex developer this is a show stopper for me but lucky that's also easily solved.Basically all that's needed is to add the MessageBrokerServlet and /flex2gateway mappings to the web.xmlYou'll find the web.xml in the directory you deployed the application to in my case:C:\glassfishv3\glassfish\domains\domain1\applications\railo\WEB-INFPasting the xml into my blog looked a little nasty so I used pastebin. You can see the WEB.xml after I added the additions here. You should have no issues copying all of this and pasting (translate)

Railo on GlassFish

Setting up Railo of GlassFish is a breeze. From start to finish I could accomplish this in 5 minutes and that includes downloading Railo.Working with 2 CFML engines on the same machine is pretty easy and my main dev machine ( my laptop ) I have CF8 and CF9 installed but I also have a slew of Virtual machines for different configurations for different clients.I haven't yet seen anyone actually run CF9 and Railo side by side on GlassFish but I wanted to demonstrate how easy this would be to setup in a dev environment.Click here for high Quality version.The (translate)

Start and Stop ColdFusion 9 with a batch file

I swap between ColdFusion 8 and 9. I'd rather not have them both running locally at the same time. I have start stop batch files for CF8 so my laptop boots quicker and I start CF when I need it so I also made some for CF9. The main difference is the addition of solr service.startcf9.bat:@echo offecho Starting ColdFusion 9echo ======================================================net start "ColdFusion 9 Application Server"net start "ColdFusion 9 ODBC Agent"net start "ColdFusion 9 ODBC Server"net start "ColdFusion 9 .NET service"net start "ColdFusion 9 solr service"echo ======================================================echo ColdFusion 9 Startedstopcf9.bat:@echo offecho Stopping ColdFusion 9echo ======================================================net stop "ColdFusion 9 Application Server"net (translate)

OpenBD Google App Engine and jars

CFML on OpenBD under Goolge App Engine is great but what is you also want to leverage some existing java or write and use new java code?Well it's really easy. In some earlier posts I made some simple java classes and compiled to a jar. I thought I would use the exact same jar and code to demonstrate the same concept on OpenBD on GAE.Take the compiled jar ( Test.jar ) and drop it into: {openBDGAEProject}/war/WEB-INF/libAdd the code into a .cfmDeploy to googleThat's it.You can see the code in action here: http://pcfflex.appspot.comindex.cfm: Time to make 1,000 java objs: #timeTaken# ms (translate)
