Register a external collection with CF at runtime

[L_W]

I use a K2 server which is running on a different server from my webserver. I
got an error message, "Could not find the coldfusion registered information for
[myColl]", when I used CFSearch on my webpage to search a collection myColl
which I just created using mkvdk.

But right after I open the coldfusion
administrator(http://127.0.0.1/CFIDE/Administrator/index.cfm) and open K2
Verity Server page, my CFSearch page works. It seems when I opened the
ColdFusion Administrator/K2 Verity Server page, the new collection myColl was
automatically registered with ColdFusion. My question is, how can I register a
new external collection with the coldfusion at runtime? Thanks.

I figured it out. Just use <cfcollection action="list"> before use <cfsearch> . It seems <cfcollection action=list> could refresh the collection list and register the new external collections
