Hi Folks

Running Developer CF9 on my local desktop.
A power failure crashed the computer in the midst of a cf operation

Now I can't connect to localhost:8501
Coldfusion 9 application server was being stopped,
so uninstalled and reinstalled CF 9

Now i can access the CF Administrator at:
http://127.0.0.1/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm
And the application server is running.

But I stll can't connect to localhost:8501

Any suggestions?
Thanks
Rob

Just checking... Is it set to run on port 8501?

If it's listening on TCP/80, as it appears to be on your computer,
that typically means it won't be listening on TCP/8501 or any other
non-standard port. If, during install, you choose to connect CF to IIS
or Apache, CF's built-in web server will not be enabled.

are you sure you enabled the built in web server when you re-installed ?
I presume not being as you are not using it to access the cfadmin.
and if you have a web server already installed, you don;t need it anyway.

As always thanks for the help guys.
I hadn't enabled the server.
Back to running ok now.
Thanks
Rob
