Hi,

Does anyone know to create a virtual directoy using the built-in webserver in CFMX 6.1? I have to install a program on a WindowsXP Home edition computer. The program needs a virtual directory to be created to work properly.

Any Ideas?

Thanks in Advance

Mike
 
GOT IT.

To configure a virtual mapping, edit the jrun-web.xml file in the cf_root\ directory. (A virtual mapping lets you map a resource path to a physical system path that might be outside the ColdFusion MX web root.) For example, the following entry sets a virtual path to the /usr/local/images directory on an external UNIX computer:
<virtual-mapping>
<resource-path>/images/*</resource-path>
<system-path>/usr/local/images</system-path>
</virtual-mapping>
 
thank you for posting your solution
