getting started with and Coldfusion8 & FW/1

[frequent]

I inherited a large app written in Coldfusion and after wading through my first week of Coldfusion, I'm now trying to add some structure to the application, which brought me here.

I have my localhost setup with Coldfusion8.0.1/Apache2.2/MySQL and the application running as is. For FW1 I would like to start from scratch, but... I cannot get FW1 to start (server side newbie problem I guess). If someone can tell me what I'm missing in the following:

- (relocate the current application)
- unzip FW1 to Apache2.2/htdocs (my current root folder)
- path is now htdocs/org/corfield/framework.cfc
- FW1 Application.cfc and empty index.cfm are also in root.
- Restarted Webserver and CF Services.

Still - nothing happens, except the Application.cfc text being parsed out.

Any hints on what I'm missing? Thanks for helping out!

That says your web connector is not configured correctly (not a FW/1
problem). It's serving CFML files as text and not handing them to the
CF service.

Just to add to what Sean said, you also need to upgrade to CF 9.01 or Railo 3.2.2 or above.

It's not going to work with CF 8.

FW/1 1.x works with CF8 (and CFMX7 in theory).

FW/1 2.x requires CF9.0.1 (not CF9 - several people have made that
mistake) or Railo 3.2.x or laters.

Thanks for the clarification Sean.

Thanks for the info! Still finding my way around configuring everything

I'm stuck on CF8 for now, as the system is currently running on it.So I will try with FW 1.2. Will be a couple of days though. But I'll be back.

Thanks again!

You'll need version 1.1 with CF8.

https://github.com/seancorfield/fw1/tree/v1.1.1

[Sean Corfield]

No, 1.2.1 should be ACF8 compatible!

https://github.com/seancorfield/fw1/tags

The easiest place to download any official version is always the tags area.

Again, FW/1 1.x - including all versions on the 1.x tree - should be
compatible with CFMX7 onward and mostly compatible with OpenBD. If the
latest version of FW/1 1.x does not run on CFMX7 / CF8 / CF9, it's a
bug and I'll fix it!

FW/1 2.x - any version on the 2.x tree - requires CF9.0.1 (not CF9)
and Railo 3.2 or later.

[Matt Quackenbush]

Ugh. Sorry, Sean (and everyone else). I misread

FW/1 1.x works with CF8

as FW 1.1.x and misread

FW/1 2.x requires CF9.0.1

as FW 1.2.x.

That's what I get for trying to be helpful while in a hurry. Sorry again, folks!
