configuration.
Note: For security reasons, it is crucial that you do not use root for the runtime user.
When the installation completes successfully, start the JRun cfusion server:

jrun_root/bin/jrun -start cfusion
If you specified external web server settings when you ran the installation wizard, run the
11.
jrun_root/bin/cfmx-connectors.sh shell script. The script runs the Web Server Configuration
Tool, which configures the web server for use with ColdFusion MX 7. The web server should
also be running.
If there are problems running this script, review the configuration and bin directory
specifications, modify as necessary, and rerun the script. You can also configure your web
server using the scripts in jrun_root/bin/connectors, or through java -jar jrun_root/lib/
wsconfig.jar, as appropriate.
Note: This step is important, because if you specified the use of an external web server when you
ran the installation wizard, the CFIDE and cfdocs directories are placed under that web server's
root directory, and you must successfully configure the web server before you open the
ColdFusion MX Administrator.
