CF9 Standard in 64bit Linux

I'm attempting to enter a CF 9 Standard license into 64bit Linux system.  There is a known problem with this, but the work-around (ie: enter serial number into the web CF administrator interface instead of during Console install time), isn't working.

I also have a CF9 Ent serial number, which my new server does accept.  So I don't think there's a problem with my new installation.  It accepts Enterprise keys, just not Standard keys.

Is there a way to manually enter the serial number?  I tried modifying .../WEB-INF/cfusion/lib/license.properties manually and enter the new serial number in sn=####-####.... line but that didn't work.  My new installation still says Developer.  I'm fine manipulating whatever files, if needed.

I am running 9.0.1.274733.  It's running under Tomcat 7.0.22 using the AJP connector.  Tomcat is being called through Apache HTTPD 2.2.15 (yah, old) through mod_rewrite to ajp://localhost:8009/....   I tried Tomcat 5.5 and 6.x.  I tried switching JDK for Java from 1.6 Update 29 to 1.7 Update 1.  CF9 is "installed" as a WAR file.

Apache httpd/tomcat/java seems fine, as I can run other jsp and war file applications just fine.  CF9 itself seems to work fine in Developer mode as well.  I just can't seem to apply the Standard edition serial number to switch it over to Standard mode.

Thank you,

PH

    The way you have ColdFusion installed is only supported with an Enterprise license. You have have deployed it as a .war, that is not supported in CF standard, so a standard key will not work. You can only install CF Standard in stand-alone/server mode.
