This assumes that you already have Apache, JRun and one instance up and running. Basically it’s a short (check)list:

1. create the instance using the JRun Administrator
2. edit the Apache httpd.conf file and add a new virtual host, restart the web server and test virtual host (see listing 1)
   1. if developing locally you may need to edit your hosts file to reflect the server/host name
3. copy the default CFusion-ear installation over into the {install path}\JRun4\servers\{instance name}\
4. delete the default-ear (why they [cfusion and default] share the same root context, which causes conflicts)
5. start the instance, which will now deploy the CFusion-ear (I prefer the command line over the JMC: {path to JRun}>jrun -start yourInstanceName)
6. Back to the JMC and remove/un-deploy the Flash Remoting EAR (aka flashgateway.ear) from J2EE components>>Enterprise Applications
7. Still in the JMC, make a note of the Proxy Port (e.g. 51002), check that Proxy Service is running (on Apache this has a tendency to be set to initialised the first time you fire up JRun, so just click start for the Proxy Service action)
8. create a folder in {install path}\JRun4\lib\wsconfig (e.g. vh2, but it can be whatever you like)
9. Add the lines from Listing 2 to your virtual host config, changing the Bootstrap port to reflect the Proxy Service port you just recorded (See Listing 3 for complete listing)
10. restart apache
11. restart JRun
12. test cfml page with code in listing 4, which should reflect the newly created instance name
13. Next create a separate jvm.config file, where we’ll substitute all references to default cfusion instance with our instance name (listing 5)
14. Stop and then re-start the JRun instance with the following command: {install path}\JRun4\bin>jrun -start -config {you jvm.config file name} {your instance name}
15. test this by reviewing the System Information on the CF Administrator the Java Class Path should contain references to your instances server path.
