Restarting Macromedia JRun CFusion Services

Report · Feb 15, 2008

In development and prod here (both MX6.1), there is no doc on what the CFAdmin password is. In dev, I used one of the tutorials posted in this forum to remove the password.properties file, then stop the CF services and restart. It worked fine in dev.

However, in production when I look at the list of CF Services to stop/restart, I don't see what I saw in dev which was "Coldfusion MX Application Server." I see 3 JRUN services: Macromedia JRun CFusion, Admin, and Default Server.

Seeing as it's production I'm a little paranoid about stopping and restarting the services, especially since the service I affected in dev isn't in prod.

Can I safely stop/restart one, or more than one, of the JRUN services above? Is it just the JRUN CFusion Server I need to hit?

Macromedia JRun CFusion service is what is installed when you do a multi-server install. Chances are, your admin setup the Default Server service for your system and left CFusion alone.

Generally speaking, I set the Admin service to manual and stop it unless I need access to JRun.

If everything is correct, you should be able to safely stop those services and restart them.

Great, thanks!
