Chapter 4:  Web Server Management

The following table describes the web server connector properties in the web server configuration 
files. The web server connector uses these settings to help it find the ColdFusion server and know 
which servers to connect to.

Each time you run the Web Server Configuration Tool, it creates a new configuration file and 
directory. For example, the first time you run the tool in the server configuration, it creates files 
under cf_root/runtime/lib/wsconfig/1; the second time, it creates cf_root/runtime/lib/wsconfig/2; 
and so on. Each of these subdirectories contains the appropriate platform-specific connector 
module and web-server-specific supporting files.

Sample configuration files

To help describe the web server configuration file parameters, this section provides examples of 
connector-specific web server properties. These examples assume that JRun and the web server are 
on the same computer.

Property

Description

bootstrap

Specifies the IP address and port on which the JRun server’s proxy service is 
listening for connector requests. JRun must also be configured to listen on this 
port and address combination, the ProxyService must be activated, and the 
JRun server must be running. Specify ipaddress:portnumber (for example, 
127.0.0.1:51011).

serverstore

Specifies the full path and filename of the file that contains information for the 
associated JRun server. The connector creates this file automatically. The 
default filename is jrunserver.store.

verbose

Creates more detailed web server log file entries for the connector. Enabling 
this option can cause the web server’s log files to fill quickly. Specify 

true

 or 

false

; the default value is 

false

. In Apache and Sun ONE Web Server, the 

connector writes to the error log configured for the web server; on IIS, the 
connector writes to its own log in the related wsconfig subdirectory.

scriptpath

(IIS only) Points to the virtual /JRunScripts directory on the web server.

errorurl

(Optional) Specifies the URL to a file that contains a customized error 
message. This property is commented out by default. You must restart the web 
server after enabling this setting.

ssl

(Optional) Enables secure sockets layer (SSL) between the web server and the 
JRun server. You must set this setting to 

false

.

apialloc

Enables native OS memory allocation rather than the web server’s allocator 
(for use on Solaris with Sun ONE, at the direction of Macromedia Support 
staff).

ignoresuffixmap

(IIS only) Forces the connector to use application mappings.

proxyretryinterval

Specifies the number of seconds to wait before trying to reconnect to an 
unreachable clustered server.

connecttimeout

Specifies the number of seconds to wait on a socket connect to a JRun server.

recvtimeout

Specifies the number of seconds to wait on a socket receive to a JRun server.

sendtimeout

Specifies the number of seconds to wait on a socket send to a JRun server.
