coldfusion 7.0.1 and apache 2.2

I don’t know how many people really need this but i wanted to put it out there even if it’s just for my own benefit later on.  I just had a little battle getting coldfusion 7 and apache to work so here’s my tips.

I followed this article.  To get it to work though, i had to make sure to use the coldfusion java in /opt/coldfusion7/runtime/bin/java.  The second thing was that I had already tried setting up apache with the connector script, so i had that config already in place.  I had to edit my httpd.conf and remove the coldfusion stuff.  And I also moved the wsconfig directory in {cf_root}/runtime/lib to wsconfig.bkp.  These seem like simple things, but there are no hints that helped me get to these.  I just wanted to try to save somebody an hour or two down the road.
