Seems like just being able to say "http://localhost:8081" or whatever should be sufficient, and then the "/mxunit/framework/RemoteFacade.cfc" would be implicit if nothing is explicitly provided. It's been a while since I set it up, but I think I ended up going and getting the full URL out of the global settings to paste it into the project settings and change the port. Someone who knows that the default is always "/mxunit/framework/RemoteFacade.cfc" probably wouldn't consider it a stumbling block, but it tripped me up a bit. marc,

You pretty much got it. Seems like just being able to say "http://localhost:8081″ or whatever should be sufficient, and then the "/mxunit/framework/RemoteFacade.cfc" would be implicit if nothing is explicitly provided.

I don't have a setup like yours so I'm kind of having trouble "getting" it. But let me see if I am close: in your situation, the "global preferences" for webroot and facade URL aren't really useful because you an instance of CF/Railo per project. So you're using the project properties instead. Is that right? So in your project properties for ProjectA, maybe the URL is http://localhost:8888/mxunit/framework/RemoteFacade.cfc and for ProjectB, maybe it's http://localhost:8889/mxunit/framework/RemoteFacade.cfc Is that right, or am I completely off on this one? Or are you saying that in your projects, you aren't pointing to the mxunit/framework/RemoteFacade.cfc at all but instead each project has its own custom RemoteFacade.cfc (which is why the alternate URL was born, by the way... so you could subclass RemoteFacade and add in custom behavior per project). The reason I ask is that I sat down to add this behavior into the plugin but when I tried to figure out the logic, I didn't feel like I understood it well enough to do it correctly. So let me know what you're looking for, and I'll do my best to work it in. thanks! Hey Barney,
