Today’s Challenges

  1. CFMX6.1 from c:\CFusionMX\runtime\logs\default-out.log on Win2k server:

    JRun server “default” does not exist, the server root null was not found. Please verify that the C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\servers.xml file contains valid data for this server.

    Additional info from c:\CFusionMX\runtime\logs\default-err.log:

Freeagent frustrations

What’s it like working for yourself? I’m running in on the homestretch of a very important project. I’m not as far along as I had hoped and suddenly the server needs an update that is critical to the completion of the project. But alas! The update caused the server to quit working. So breaking my incredible run is server troubleshooting. Of course, I can overcome this challenge but at times like this it sure would be nice to have a support staff to fall back on. The sales rep could be explaining the delay to the customer. The IT team could be fixing the server. The development team could be brainstorming in a think tank to work around the issue. HR could be cutting me a paycheck regardless of the delay. Ah, greener grass!
