As a short follow up to my PHP on Java post. Sean Corfield has posted an example of scripting PHP within ColdFusion!

Read all about it here.

I’m currently struggling to get the new ColdFusion Eclipse code debugger working. I have what I think are all of the correct settings within Eclipse and the ColdFusion administrator.

While trying to figure out why things aren’t working, I came across this within the cfusion-out log file:

ColdFusion debugger is listening at port 1511

Curious, I browsed to localhost:1511 and was greeted with a HTTP 404 page with a note saying “Powered by Jetty”. Jetty is a free and open source Java web server and servlet container. As Jetty is small and lightweight, it is commonly used to provide services in Java applications. I wonder what part it plays in the ColdFusion debugging tool.

And if anyone knows why I keep getting “Error connecting to JVM for debugging at localhost:5005″, whenever I try and launch the ColdFusion debugger from Eclipse, please let me know!
