Part 4: Railo+MariaDB on Fedora 20 on a Windows Host with VirtualBox
This fourth article in the series will introduce a few ColdFusion tags and demonstrate how to use ColdFusion to select database records. The next article will demonstrate how to insert, update and delete records. The first article in this series demonstrated how to setup a Fedora 20 VM. The second article discussed installing MariaDB on the VM. The third article illustrated installing Railo and connecting to the MariaDB datasource.
