I was running a webserver and also Coldfusion just fine until I upgraded to Mountain Lion, then it stopped working. I got it working again by turning everything back on that the upgrade disabled, but now I have upgraded to Mavericks nothing is working. I have followed all the steps in various web articles but it won't work. PHP is enabled, everything that was enabled before is set up, including virtual hosts, and all the folders are in the same place.
I get the error: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1. [or localhost, or any of my virtual hosts]
I've gone over everything time after time and I can't figure out why it won't work. I have started, stopped, restarted the webserver numerous times, it is set to start on bootup too. I couldn't even complete the Coldfusion install because I couldn't load the administrator in a browser.
What could the problem be? Where should I look?
This is not a complete answer, but this should help get things started
Try using the command line start. It will probably be complaining about Java 7 not being installed. I recently needed to install Java 7 JDK (not JRE to get things running)
I know to get the rest of it running, I need to point ColdFusion at the proper JVM. You can find the JVM settings at /Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion/bin/jvm.xml. You should have some setting like
# VM configuration
#
# Where to find JVM, if {java.home}/jre exists then that JVM is used
# if not then it must be the path to the JRE itself
java.home=/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home
application.home=/Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion
When you install Java 7, the JRE is at
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/jre
Backup, and edit the jvm.config file to
#
# VM configuration
#
# Where to find JVM, if {java.home}/jre exists then that JVM is used
# if not then it must be the path to the JRE itself
java.home=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/jre
# java.home=/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home
application.home=/Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion
If all goes well, you should be able to start ColdFusion
Some additional help
Installing Java on OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)
When you install Java 7
Just saw this thread. ColdFusion 10 is now supported on OS X 10.9 Maverick with the release of CF10 Update 13.
This should work for you now.

I'm seeing my Xcode 10 (downloaded as I always do from the developer downloads website and not from the App Store) get verified EVERY single startup on Catalina 10.15.1
Does anyone know a workaround? I really regret upgrading to Catalina - like iOS13, it's not ready for prime time yet.
ALSO...
After running the the sim the first time (i.e. Xcode installs and runs the app in the sim), subsequent attempts to run the app in the sim bork because the same Verify process mentioned above runs for Xcode again (even though it's running the Xcode instance) and the debug connection times out, so it becomes impossible to run the app without removing the app first.
I would say at this point that Apple's security implementation in Catalina is thoroughly broken - would STRONGLY advise developers who work in a production environment with earlier Xcode versions to NOT upgrade from Mojave yet.
============== UPDATE ==============
Fixed with the Catalina 10.15.2 update
Goal:
Run cfquery of remote server on local Coldfusion install.
Problem/Symptoms:
The cfquery parameters are printing onto the screen, instead of running query on remote.Example of cfquery parameter printout on screen
Facts:
Running Mac OS X Mojave (10.14.3).
Coldfusion is installed. I can access the CF Admin panel at http://localhost:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm
Data Source is installed in Coldfusion Admin and status is "OK"
Using Mamp Pro 5.3. It's running -- can start and stop Apache.
Apache is running on port 80
Updated ODBC Actual SQL Server drivers (Version 4.2.0 from ActualTech). Tested connection to server with driver and it is working.
Remote database is using port 1433
I'm sure there are more questions to answer, but hopefully that's a decent start. What am I doing wrong?
Update: 3/17/2019
Feeling stuck here. I've uninstalled and reinstalled CF2018 and MAMP Pro. I've used the wsconfig applet for Adobe Coldfusion (ACF) as described by Brian Lang and I've also tried the manual approach as described by Adobe.
Update: 4/19/2019
I may have figured this out, now that there is a release of Mac OS 10.14.4. Going to test it on another computer to confirm that the process works and that I have all the steps documented, then will share answers.
The solution to this problem had to do with a conflict with Mac OS X and Coldfusion/Apache. Because Mac OS X 10.14.4 fixed the "mod_jk" file that was conflicting with Apache, Coldfusion 2018 can now run on Mac OS X.
In order to solve the problem, I needed to:
upgrade Mac OS X to 10.14.4
stop all other servers
install Coldfusion 2018
set up Coldfusion Apache Connector
set up local virtual host
I confirmed that it worked on another computer, and have documented detailed instructions in this post: https://www.steckinsights.com/configuring-coldfusion-2018-with-apache-on-mac-os-x-mojave/
Fair warning: I think that the mod_jk issue in Mac OS 10.14.3 and prior was the issue, but there were so many different aspects I tested in the process, that there may be unique issues related to your particular computer's configuration. I hope hope this helps anyone out there having issues.
I've visited the wso2 website and the install instructions are very disjointed in that there is a lot of jumping around between pages. I've seen the following blog that seemed to streamline the instructions but it doesn't seem complete (plus it's out of date with the version it's installing) - https://maxmalm.se/blog/2014-06-17-installing-wso2-enterprise-mobility-manager-110
Has anyone seen step-by-step instructions on what needs to be done to completely setup wso2-EMM on a newly installed Ubuntu 14.04 virtual machine with just the O/S on it and none of the pre-reqs installed yet? The blog I mentioned above seems to give a lot of the necessary apt-get install bits but doesn't mention anything about a database (yet the wso2 has a whole section on installing and using a database).
Thank you.
To try out WSO2 EMM you will only need to have JDK 7 or 8 [1] installed as minimum to start off the server. WSO2 products are build to run with OOB database which is H2. So to get things started and play around, I suggest that you install java and then start the pack to get things going.
[1] https://docs.wso2.com/display/EMM201/Installing+on+Linux+or+OS+X
To getting started all you need is JDK installed in your machine and setting the Java related environment variables like PATH, JAVA_HOME. You might have to install the correct version of JDK for the particular version of the EMM.
I followed this tutorial, and I've tried it on Windows 8, a clean install of Windows 7, and Ubuntu (all on the same computer and router). It works on Ubuntu, but the browser fails to ever connect to localhost:3000 (or any port I specify in the code) with Windows 7 and Windows 8. However, connecting to ruby on rails at localhost:3000 does work on Windows 7 and Windows 8. So far, I've played around with the hosts file, running as administrator, using ghc, using yesod devel, firewalls, and more. Nothing has worked. I assume given these constraints that it's a bug in yesod, but maybe there's a hack around it.
I believe there was a bug for a few days with the version of Warp on Hackage which prevented it from working on Windows. Any more recent version of Warp should work correctly.
Apologies if this has been asked already, searching the web reveals lots and lots of threads about installing the Win8 beta on VMware but not the other way around.
I am trying to install VMware Server 2.0.2 on a Windows 8 Preview machine. It appears to install correctly but I cannot then reach the web based homepage to configure virtual machines, i.e.
https://localhost:8333/ui/
gives the error that the "connection attempt to localhost was rejected. The website may be down or your network may not be properly configured".
Has anyone had any success running VMware Server 2.0.2 on Windows 8 Preview? If so were there any gotchas you needed to avoid?
I don't think it will ever be resolved. VMware Server was declared End Of Availability in January 2010; There will be no support for Windows 8.
Your best try would be trying launching the services in compatibility mode, but why would you do that? Why not use the much more advanced VMware Player or VMware Workstation products?
I've found a way to run it on Windows 8.
On my PC with a x64 version of Windows 8, when I installed VMware Server 2, I found there was a service called VMware Host Agent that cannot be run. When I opened the system Service Manager and clicked to launch this service, it gave me the error.
My solution is to create a service with the same command string and set it to start automatically by using the "sc create" command in cmd.exe. And it worked for me!
