INSTALLING COLDFUSION 10
Installing the J2EE Configuration
Platforms
Full ColdFusion functionality is available for Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and Solaris, except that the following are
Windows-specific: COM, .NET, and ODBC Services. AIX support is provided for WebSphere application server only.
Functionality provided by platform-specific binary files. is not available on AIX. Additionally, you can install and
deploy the all-Java ColdFusion J2EE configuration on other platforms, although without the functionality provided by
platform-specific binary files (C++ CFXs).
Preparing to install using the J2EE configuration
Instead of JRun, Tomcat is embedded with a stand-alone ColdFusion 10 installation. Previous versions of ColdFusion
installer allow you to create multi-server installations whereas ColdFusion 10 installer lets you only install stand-alone
installation. After installing ColdFusion in stand-alone mode, you can create multiple instances and clusters, provided
you have an Enterprise or Developer license.
Note: This feature is not available in Standard Edition.
Installing an EAR file or WAR files
If your computer is already running a J2EE application server, the installation wizard creates an EAR file or WAR files,
which you deploy using application-server-specific tools.
The ColdFusion J2EE configuration must run from an expanded directory structure. Different J2EE application
servers have different functionality with regard to deployment and an expanded directory structure, as follows:
Deploy compressed archive to working directory. On some J2EE application servers (such as IBM WebSphere), the
deployment process expands the EAR/WAR file into a working directory and, from that point forward, the expanded
directory is considered to be the application. For these application servers, you deploy the compressed EAR/WAR file
and work in the resulting directory structure. For more information, see
configuration" on page 29.
Deploy expanded archive as working directory
deployment process expands the EAR/WAR file into a temporary directory and (conceptually), the compressed
EAR/WAR file is still considered to be the application. For these application servers, expand the EAR/WAR file
manually, and then deploy the expanded directory structure, which becomes your working directory. For more
information, see

Installing an EAR file or WAR files in Windows
You can install the ColdFusion J2EE configuration in Windows.
Note: The Windows installer requires a computer that supports at least 256 colors.
