    Coldfusion WAR Deployment fun

    greatseaspider

      Hello all,

      I'm a software developer trying to deploy a website packaged in a war file using a fresh jboss install on a dev machine. The website is written in coldfusion and the war file was generated by coldfusion MX7.

      When i start the server it loads but throws a pile of erros upon encountering my war file.

      First error in server.log:
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2007-10-24 16:09:39,359 ERROR [org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig] Parse error in application web.xml file at jndi:/localhost/test_webstite/WEB-INF/web.xml

      ...
      ...
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      then further down i get this:

      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      any ideas how i could go about fixing this?

      does anybody have any experience running coldfusion sites in jboss? any help greatly appreciated!

          Your web.xml is not spec-compliant, and apparently coldfusion supports a non-standard url-pattern. Change it to "*.cfml"
