Can I use ColdFusion as servlet container?
At the current time Adobe is not recommending use of ColdFusion as a servlet container. While this is technically feasible, it is not reliable, perhaps because the servlet container functionality of ColdFusion is specifically implemented and tested for the use of ColdFusion rather than third-party servlets. For this reason, Adobe recommends JRun be used for containing servlets. (Note that there is a difference between using ColdFusion as a servlet container and simply using it to call a servlet from a ColdFusion page. The latter involves use of the ColdFusion GetPageContext tag as referenced at and is documented and supported by Adobe.
