Hello
Are you interested to have a complete installation guide for a Lucee-Server
in a Windows Environment? The guide would really cover everything starting
with Tomcat, going to Boncode/mod_cfml and Lucee and ending with IIS. The
guide would also point out security and locking down everything.
Before i start with this work, i would like to ask, if this might interest
the community.
Cheers
OT, but Andrew, what are the plusses of Jetty over Tomcat in your opinion?
My impression (only, haven’t investigated) was that Tomcat ws more widely
used in industrial-strength applications.

Good question 
I’m experienced with Tomcat only.
I think that would be a very welcome addition to the wiki, Martin,
thank you for offering. Happy to help and review.

Most of the this or that arguments come down to personal taste. For me I
liked how jetty was easy to configure and numerous projects are using
something of Jetty under the hood. I decided why use jetty by proxy just
use jetty.

Good question
That is a reasonable answer for why it would be Tomcat only. Some of the
stuff would apply to any servlet engine that was chosen. It would be
impossible to have a guide for every servlet engine out there.

I have started writing the guide. This is the URL:
https://bitbucket.org/lucee/lucee/wiki/How%20to%20Setup%20a%20Lucee-Server%20on%20Windows
I will appreciate some first feedback to see if i’m on the right track. I
hope, that my english isn’t too bad.
Cheers
Hi Julian
Good start, Martin. As a native English speaker would you be ok with
me fine-tuning the language a bit to improve clarity?
Of course, I’m always interested to improve my english skills
I wonder too if it could be pared down a little. Web content is often
more effective the more concise it is (because folk generally just
want to get at the essentials as quickly as possible and move on).
Could you shorten the Tomcat config into just one page, for instance?
Yes and no 
Personally i like also the short essential stuff. My
experience as a teacher/speaker tells me, that a longer, detailed text
helps the newbies to understand and breaks sometimes the language barrier
for the people with less english knowledge. Splitting the content in
several pages makes printing also easier.
Let’s wait how it looks if it’s finished and how the people respond with
shorten the pages, if you don’t mind.
Having said that, I like how you’ve provided the CLI commands as an
alternative to the “copy/paste” instructions
Thanks! i actually use the documented CLI commands on a test server to
really be sure, that i don’t write rubbish
Cheers
I actually shorted some articles. Makes sense
