Stop your ColdFusion from start up in Mac OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
I have used Adobe ColdFusion 9 as a development platform in Microsoft Windows before. I just use Service management panel to set ColdFusion to avoid to start when Windows boot up. But now, with OSX snow leopard, I found I couldn’t find anything easy like that. So how can we prevent ColdFusion from starting up?
So I start to googling around and finally I found the solution. In OSX, it’s UNIX based-system, almost things rely on their configuration file. You have to deal with these kind of file to manage ColdFusion when OSX started up.
So this is the instruction:
- Go to:
\Volume\Startupitems\you will see ColdFusion ‘X’ folder. ‘X’ is represent to installed Coldfusion’s version. - In your ColdFusion folder, you will found: ColdFusion 9 file.
- Open it with your favorite text editor. For me, I used TextMate.
- Comment this line:
su $RUNTIME_USER -c "$CF_DIR/bin/coldfusion start"
- When finished, it should look like this:
#su $RUNTIME_USER -c "$CF_DIR/bin/coldfusion start"
- Restart your Mac OSX.
I hope this solution can help you all.
