Yes, the webserver connector utility usually does work and for a great many people, it works without any problem.  Of course none of those people are going around making posts to forums, blogs, or discussion lists.

When it does not work, it can be a bit of a pain in the butt until it is sorted out.  I have an the past had to custom compile the connector code to get it to work properly on one system I was working with at the time.

The latest is that if it does not work for you, there is something about your system that is throwing the utility for a loop.  There are ways and means to sort this out but, unfortunately, it will require more work on your part.

If you would like help from members of this forum, you can provide us with all the relevant information you have about what happens when you use the utility, what you have tried to do to resolve the issue and anything else you think is relevant.

Ok, well I've got ColdFusion 9.0.1 dev installed (without hotfix 2) on Mac 10.6.8 at Applications/ColdFusion9 ...  when I run the launcher and click the webserver connector utility, I leave JRun Host: localhost and JRun Server: coldfusion and then add the Apache Web Server Configuration Directory as /Applications/MAMP/conf/apache and then check the configure web server for CF9 applications box and select advanced, then for server binary I change it to /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/httpd and server control script to /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/apachectl and click OK... it then wants to restart I say yes, and it gives me a warning connectors/apache/intel-macosx64/prebuilt/mod_jrun22.so and I click OK and close out unable to resolve this.

Ok, I've managed to reinstall ColdFusion 9 make sure to link up to MAMP in the install opposed to using the Webserver Connector Utility and I seem to be in better shape now. One issue I'm now having which I would LOVE to understand and resolve is that I've installed the CFIDE folder in both either the ColdFusion9 wwwroot directory or MAMPS htdocs directory but it seems as though in order for the administrator area to work properly it wants a duplicate copy of the CFIDE folder in both directories. Does anyone have any ideas about this? Adding a new virtual host to the following has helped some I think but it still requires the folder in both places.

NameVirtualHost *:8888

<VirtualHost *:8888>

ServerName localhost

DocumentRoot /Applications/MAMP/htdocs

</VirtualHost>

Also, the default mapping in http://localhost:8888/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm seems to point to the ColdFusion9 wwwroot folder but it's uneditable. Probably has something to do with my issues?

On further testing it seems the for there to not be broken images there needs to be a CFIDE folder in MAMPs htdocs folder and for there to not be some error there needs to be a CFIDE folder in ColdFusion9s wwwroot folder despite directly installing it into MAMPs htdocs folder on install.

Sorry to keep editing my post but I keep noticing info I feel is relevant. The cfdocs folder is in MAMPs htdocs directory and the WEB-INF is in ColdFusion9s wwwroot directory.
