Issue

Adobe ColdFusion 8 and 8.0.1 present an option during installation to have ColdFusion started during system startup. The Solaris console installation presents a screen similar to below:

The following options are available for installation.

An option marked with "[X]" in front will be installed and an option with "[ ]" will not. Choosing an option will toggle it on or off

[X] 1) ColdFusion 8 Documentation

[X] 2) Adobe LiveCycle Data Services ES

[X] 3) ColdFusion 8 Search Services

[X] 4) Start ColdFusion on system init

5) Continue with installation

However even with "Start ColdFusion on system init" selected the start and kill scripts are not properly installed.

Solution

The cf-init.sh script will properly install the missing startup and kill scripts so that ColdFusion (and Verity, if it is installed) will start upon system startup.

  1. Cd to coldfusion8/bin.
  2. Run "cf-init.sh install" as root, or with sudo, to properly install the startup and kill scripts.
  3. Run "cf-init.sh uninstall" as root, or with sudo, to remove the scripts.
