Ok, if I cant get it working now then I will be abandoning every single cf app, and switching to something else. Just for principal. First, I have been trying to get CF8 to work on RH4 ever since beta, no luck. Fine. I switched to RH5 and it still does not work. All security has been disabled. After trying to run the connector, this is what I get:

Could not connect to any JRun/ColdFusion servers on host localhost.
Possible causes:
o Server not running
-Start Macromedia JRun4 or ColdFusion 8 server
o Server running
-JNDI listen port in jndi.properties blocked by TCP/IP filtering or firewall
on server
-host restriction in security.properties blocking communication with server

I just installed CF 8.0.1 on CentOS 5, absolutely no problems or difficulty. It just worked.

Step by step, from a clean Red Hat 5 install, what are you doing?

Is the firewall active and blocking any connections to 127.0.0.1?

Do you have SELinux active?

1. Do you have Apache up and running by itself already?
2. Do you have a user account created specifically for ColdFusion server to use?
3. Did you give the installer the correct path to your Apache installation?
4. Are you installing CF 8 Standard or Enterprise?

I currently have CF 8 installed on ubuntu 7.10 and had no problems. I've installed CF 6 and 7 on Red Hat ES 2 and 3 without a problem, but I deployed them as EAR files on JBoss. I've also had CF 4.5 and 5 installed on Fedora and CentOS with few problems.

The only problem I can recall running into was installing CF 5 on CentOS 3.x. A port that CF wanted to use was already in use by JNDI. We just told JNDI to use a different port and CF started working just fine.

Have you called the Adobe support line for this? This forum is not an official support outlet.
