Cannot install the framework

[dhaval]

Hello, I followed the video tutorial and installed the framework, but
when I access the url, I am getting this error. I am also new the
coldfusion.

Railo 3.1.2.001 Error (Expression)

I am running railo express. I am sure this is some config issue, but I
dont understand what it is.

Are the Mach-II files in your webroot or in a directory below that?

It is in the directory below that. This is the path: railo-3.1.2.001-
railo-express-macosx/webroot/website all the files are in the
"website" directory.

It has to be in the webroot or you have to create a mapping. Note that if you're using virtual hosts it can be in the root of a virtual host as well. The key is that /MachII needs to get you to the MachII directory. If it doesn't, it's in the wrong place or you need to create a mapping.

Just to reiterate what Matt just said -- you have to be able to get to MachII from the root of your domain.  So if you are using localhost, then the Mach-II files should be located in http://localhost/MachII (if you looking from the perspective of the browser).  The same applies if you are using virtual domains: http://mysite.com/MachII. If you put MachII elsewhere such as in http://localhost/website/MachII, then you'll need to create a CFML mapping (called /MachII) in the administrator or create a per application mapping (called /MachII) in your application's Application.cfc file that points to the that path to disk.

This is how the way CFML engine treat paths and there isn't any way for Team Mach-II to change that.  I hope this helps resolve your issue.

Best,

Thank you guys for your help, I moved MachII in webroot and everything
is working fine now.
