8 Chapter 1: Essential Information

About the ColdFusion MX 6.1 installation

ColdFusion MX 6.1 provides a powerful and flexible installation and upgrade process. The

ColdFusion MX 6.1 installation process includes the following phases:

1Plan the installation You determine your installation, configuration, and upgrade options.

2Run the installer You run the ColdFusion MX 6.1 installer.

3(J2EE configuration only) Deploy ColdFusion MX You deploy and configure ColdFusion

MX on your J2EE application server.

4Run the Configuration Wizard You finish the installation by specifying configuration and

migration options.

The ColdFusion MX 6.1 installation process supports the following scenarios:

•New installation Install ColdFusion MX 6.1 on a computer with no previous ColdFusion

installation.

•Upgrade installation You can upgrade from ColdFusion 4.5, ColdFusion 5, and

ColdFusion MX. When upgrading from ColdFusion 4.5 or 5, the Configuration Wizard

migrates previous settings to ColdFusion MX 6.1. When upgrading from ColdFusion MX, the

ColdFusion MX 6.1 installer functions as an updater, which automatically preservers existing

settings.

You can install ColdFusion MX 6.1 in either of the following configurations:

•Server configuration Lets you install one instance of ColdFusion with an embedded J2EE

server. This version contains an embedded copy of JRun and is most similar to previous

ColdFusion versions. For information on installing the server configuration, see Chapter 2,

“Installing the Server Configuration,” on page 19.

•J2EE configuration (Enterprise and Developer Editions only) Lets you deploy

ColdFusion MX as a Java application running on a Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE)

application server. This configuration allows you to run multiple instances of ColdFusion MX

on a single computer, either using the bundled license of JRun or using a third-party J2EE

application server, such as IBM WebSphere, Sun ONE Application Server, or BEA WebLogic.

For information on installing the J2EE configuration, see Chapter 3, “Installing the J2EE

Configuration,” on page 31.

The remainder of this chapter describes product editions and system requirements. Once you

understand the editions and ensure that your environment meets the system requirements,

continue with the instructions in Chapter 2, “Installing the Server Configuration,” on page 19 or

Chapter 3, “Installing the J2EE Configuration,” on page 31, as appropriate.
