ColdFusion 4.5.1 on Fedora Core2 and Apache2?
Unfortunately we’re still using ColdFusion on Linux at work - and 4.5.1 at that! Yeah, pretty old, but we’re still trying to migrate to all Java and don’t see the need for ColdFusion MX. (The next version of CFMX with FlashPaper support looks cool, though. BTW, CF5’s Linux MS-SQL driver sucked with Stored Procs when I tested it ages ago, hence 4.5.1 is still in use.) Anyway, we’ve got new boxes and I didn’t want to revert back to old versions of RedHat or Apache and CF 4.5.1 isn’t supported directly on the newer versions… so what to do… of course Google pointed the direction:
- C compatibility libs as posted about here
- mod_coldfusion for Apache2 Thanks Andrew! (CF5 and CF4.5.1 modules are compatible)
I haven’t load tested things yet, but so far, so good.
