08/02/2022, 10:41 PMDoes anybody happen to know the Application root for a commandBox install? I am on macOS and if I could install ColdFusion on the Mac, the Application root would be /Applications/ColdFusion2021. The port I am using is, 54853.l Thanks in advance. The reason I want to know the Application root is for the VS CF Builder extension.

08/02/2022, 10:44 PM@johnbarrett Is application root the SERVER home or the web root where your index.cfm and friends go?

Copy code
server info property=serverHomeDirectoryj

08/02/2022, 10:53 PMThanks so much @bdw429s! Yes I meant server home, sorry about the confusion. Thanks for the server info command, this is actually what I was looking for, thanks again.

08/02/2022, 10:53 PM@johnbarrett Did you confirm that with Adobe though?

08/02/2022, 10:53 PMbecause when I tested the VSCode extension, I assumed they mean the web root

08/02/2022, 11:02 PM@bdw429s when I run the command I get the server home, but it still tells me, "Invalid Server Home" I think that on macOS it must be from the CF install and not commandBox. Anyway, I can't seem to get it working. Thanks so much for all your help!

08/03/2022, 1:37 AM@johnbarrett Keep in mind if the extension is wanting the server home, it's probably looking for a subfolder of CommandBox's "server home" I would suspect the
WEB-INF/cfusionbdw429s
