Set up muliple instances for just one website - caveats
To expand upon this earlier post, when you map multiple instances within the same website (via virtual webs), items that use CFCHART will break. To make sure that the correct CFIDE is called when calling things like cfform, cfchart, etc. you need to make these modifications (thanks to Bruce Purcell)
-
In {cfmx-root}/lib/neo-graphing.xml
Change /CFIDE/GraphData.cfm to /somesite/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm -
In {cfmx-root}/wwwroot/WEB-INF/web.xml
Change /CFIDE/GraphData.cfm to /somesite/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm
In addition, we were experiencing issues with session replication when users were moving between virtual webs within the same site. The fix for this is to place this code into a normal index.html template, and ensure that this template is called first when entering your site.

Great stuff. I'm going to add a cross post later tomorrow. I want to try this out on a new high traffic single site.
