How to start and stop coldfusion on macs

If you need to start and stop ColdFusion via terminal on macs then here is how

Start terminal (hold apple and hit the space bar and type in terminal into spotlight).

Then to start CF type in:

sudo /Applications/ColdFuions8/bin/coldfusion start
and to stop it type in:
sudo /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin/coldfusion stop

Depending on how you've installed CF you may want to run the start/stop command via this command:

sudo /Applications/ColdFusion8/runtime/bin/jrun -start coldfusion
OR
sudo /Applications/ColdFusion8/runtime/bin/jrun -stop coldfusion

Chris's Gravatar I did this all the time, until I found that it's much easier to hit apple + space, type "coldf" and start the ColdFusion Launcher gui.

I don't have CF installed in single server installation, so I can't say whether the app launcher is available for this, too.

Steven Erat's Gravatar When CFMX 7 came out with support for Mac, this is the only way I ever started CF since at that time the CFLauncher wasn't even documented. http://tinyurl.com/aghdgg
