We have been working on some elastic-virtual servers for a while now and we are now posting them for consumption.  Our first server is hosted at elastic server and is based on the latest Railo+Resin+Apache configuration.  You will find more CFML Engine(s) as we continue to build them, but you can start downloading now from our main downloads page: http://www.coldbox.org/index.cfm/download.

The cool thing is that we build a template server so you can tweak it and build your own according to your requirements.  You can even start it up as an Amazon image if you like.

The one we are offering at the moment is the ColdBox + Railo(Resin) Ultimate Dev Machine:
An ulitmate development machine for ColdBox CFML Development. This machine installs the nightly ColdBox build, MXUnit, Transfer ORM, on top of Railo with Resin. We also compile the resin apache connector and configure for usage within apache. Resin is configured for implicit multi-hosts in the following directory: "/opt/htdocs/wwwroot".

Just create a new folder according to your host name and resin will use it and configure it automatically. You can then create a new virtual host in apache that points there and voila!.

The default Railo administrator passwords are: coldfusion.

Extra Software: Java 1.6, ANT with CruiseControl, Git, SVN, webmin, etc.

Please also note that the server comes pre-configured with a firewall that you will need to stop or configure to use ports 10000 for webmin and/or port 8600 for direct resin control.
