Getting closer to CFMX on my MacBook Pro

In the end I may just stick to parallels, but if nothing else I wouldn’t mind having the option to do all my dev directly in OS X.

Thanks to Simeon for pointing out the answer to my first road block. Since then I’ve gotten jrun compiled, and modded the httpd.conf file. And now I get this in my log file when browsing to any of these addresses.

 I’ve made sure my wsconfig.properties and jrunserver.store are both rw-r–r– and my mod_jrun.so is rwxr-xr-x

Still no love. Thanks also to Scott P for the thoughts on my previous woes.

a road bump in the road to getting CFMX installed on my Macbook Pro

I’ve been reading Simeon‘s blog, and followed the definitive guide, and bam road block.

 

When I attempt to compile the jrun connector i get the following error.

gcc -DDARWIN -DUSE_HSREGEX -DUSE_EXPAT -I../lib/expat-lite -g -Os -pipe-DHARD_SERVER_LIMIT=2048 -DEAPI -DSHARED_MODULE -I/usr/include/httpd -w-c mod_jrun.c
i686-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1: mod_jrun.c: No such file or directory
i686-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1: no input files
apxs:Break: Command failed with rc=1

 

I’ve reinstalled the apple dev tools, re traced my steps. Double checked that the file is present.

No love.

 

 

Time to try leaving Windows for Dev

Normally I do my Web Dev in Windows thanks to Paralels, but I’ve been thinking it might be time to get CF running in OS X, especially since I am doing more Flex work and can do Flex on the mac, it’d be nice to have it all in the mac OS.

 

I’ve found the Definitive guide, which looks to be just what I need, we’ll see. From what i’ve read it’s pretty straight forward.

 

Wish me luck

Merry Christmas!

Well it’s done; the tree is naked underneath, the big black trashbag is full of torn, shredded and otherwise destroyed warpping paper, the ham (or turkey, if you roll like that) has been eaten, the presents have been played with, and now are finding their homes.

I hope you all got what you wanted/needed. I know I did. I’ve now got plenty of reading to do (Thanks to Neil Gaiman), and some money to be spent at REI, which believe me, I can’t wait to spend. Nicole and I have plenty of things on our short (but not really) list of things to buy to be ready  for camping and hiking season.
