- ColdFusion root would be the base installation folder for ColdFusion (Windows: C:\Coldfusion9.... Mac: /Applications/Coldfusion9)
- Web Root will be the wwwroot directory within the Coldfusion folder - Root URL is http://localhost:8500 I would seriously question the decision of the individual you hired for Flex if they are unable to get this setup... sorry... i know that sounds very arrogant but I wouldn't want you throwing money away on this... The thing to remember with ColdFusion is that when defining channels and destinations within the various xxx-config.xml files is that they refer to the ColdFusion installation location for web roots, etc... not the IIS locations even if you're serving the web content from your inetpub directory. To get the CF debugging setup, you need to define a server instance inside ColdFusion builder and then define your CF project to use that server... you then "Run" your CF project in Debug mode to kick off the debugging breakpoints you put into the CF code will get caught as the CF content is called and run from your Flex app. Brendan On Mon, Jan 7, 2013 at 10:43 AM, jmfamp <[email protected]> wrote: > ** > > > I have hired someone to work on a Flex application.
