Installation considerations for Windows
The following are installation considerations for Windows only:
- If you previously added a cf_root\bin or cf_root\verity\_nti40\bin directory to your system path for ColdFusion 5, you must remove it before installing ColdFusion MX. (For instructions, see the Microsoft Windows online Help.) Otherwise, ColdFusion MX cannot locate the correct Verity DLL files.
- Do not configure the server running ColdFusion MX as a Primary Domain Controller (PDC) or Backup Domain Controller (BDC). Macromedia follows Microsoft's network model, in which the first level is the PDC/BDC. These systems only manage the network or domain and are not designed to run application servers. ColdFusion MX should reside on the second level of Windows NT and Windows 2000 stand-alone systems. Stand-alone servers can participate in a network or domain.
- Windows NT 4.0 Workstation, Windows 2000 Professional handle only 10 TCP/IP connections concurrently. Therefore, Macromedia does not recommend using these operating systems in a production environment; use Window NT 4.0 Server or Windows 2000 Server instead. In addition, Macromedia does not recommend using Windows ME, Windows 98, or Windows XP Home Edition, because each was intended for personal use and not as a server platform in a production environment.
