In the above steps you installed Apache2 and Lucee with Tomcat, but you didn’t connect them. Step: When being asked to open the Lucee Welcome page, just click finish and you will be directed to the Lucee Welcome Page.Step: Make sure to UNTICK “Install the IIS connector”, because you won’t be using IIS, but Apache that came with XAMPP.This will install Tomcat/Lucee as a Service Step: Make sure to keep “Yes, Start Lucee at Boot Time”.Step: Keep the default for Tomcat ports and next and click next.Step: Define the Memory you want to give your JVM for Lucee and click next.Step: Define the password for your Lucee Administrator and click next.Installing the bundled JRE ensures you’ll be running a dedicated preshipped JRE for your Lucee and Tomcat. The reason is that you may have a Java version installed that isn’t supported by Lucee. Step: If the installer asks you to use the existing Java installation, make sure to “Install the bundled JRE” and click next.Step: Define the installation directory, e.g.Step: Accept the terms of services and click next.Step: Right-click the Lucee installer and run it as administrator.Step: Download Lucee Installer for Windows at.Then check if the Apache Server is running fine by navigating to You should see the “XAMPP Welcome Page” Step: Open the XAMPP Control Pannel and start Apache Webserver. Step: Install everything you neetd but NOT Tomcat(!!!): Tomcat will come from the Lucee Installer.Step: Right-click the XAMPP installer and run it as administrator.So, the Lucee installer will let everything in that xampl apache2 setup untouched. As far as I know, the Lucee installer won’t find Apache2 on windows (I know some of the Lucee dev team like have the desire to make that work on Windows Apache2, but they are really working very hard doing other very important things with Lucee core). Also, Lucee installer will try to detect the webserver automatically, so make sure you have no webserver installed and running before doing the following steps. Step: Make sure you don’t have IIS feature installed or IIS running on your Windows, because it will conflict with your Apache webserver.Please try that and post back any feedback or issues you might face. Here is a full Step by Step Guide, that I’ll be adding to the Lucee docs soon. Maybe you were trying to change configs at XAMPPs Tomcat configs, not Lucee’s Tomcat configs. I strongly suspect that you have installed XAMPP with Tomcat, not understanding that Tomcat also comes within the Lucee installer with already all the settings you need to run Lucee. So I did an installation of Lucee with Xampp without any issues. I may try again one day wit the never versions. Never had to do it before.Īt one point last night before I gave up I had intended to seek PAID help to get it finished but had no idea had to go about that.Īnyway, I’ve been a cfml user for decades and Lucee is wonderful and I’ve even traded conversation with Gert once or twice. I did have to tweak the Lucee Server settings to ALWAYS refresh the page cache to get it to completely work other wise for some reason I have to refresh each page at least once after loading to get it full loaded properly. Other than that I could get it really close.įor now I reinstalled the older versions mentioned above and I’m back in business again. Last night before I “gave up” I will say that I almost had it working but I could never quite get the problem where I had to add 8888 after the host on every URL request to go away. You are correct, it’s not in a production environment but I use it extensively for projects both at home and related to work projects. Tired, frustrated and convinced I simply will never be able to get these newer versions working properly. Thank you much for your kind assistance Andreas. I’m sure that if I were a more learned Java programmer I could make these newer version work but that just isn’t in the cards for me. I would offer strong humble advice to anyone not 100% proficient in Java programming to forgo updates and if your install is working don’t fix it like I did.Īll the best and I have nothing but respect for each and every individual who gave their time for this platform. Those version were working perfectly for my needs and the ONLY reason I tried an update is because it looked so easy and was offered in the server admin. I simply have no more time or patience to throw at this. Situations where obvious datetime variables for example were interpreted as QUERIES by the latest versions of Lucee and threw errors. I thought I could get it working but even once I had it partially running, I was getting VERY strange errors that never arose before with the old versions. After spending several full days (3) and countless hours (I have no hair left to pull out), I have decided to forget the latest version of Lucee and Xampp and go back to what worked.
