CF 2016 Silently enable built-in web server and set base folder

I need to be able to completely setup and configure Coldfusion 2016 on Windows. Is this possible?

Using the silent.properties file I am able to silently install Coldfusion. What I need to do from this point is enable the built-in web server and then set the root for path for it. Is this possible to do via command line, scripts or batch files?

I have searched the forums and the web and have been unable to come up with anything concrete.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    You should do this manually through the ColdFusion Administrator. The standard URL is

    http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm

    This is arguably the best way. It is traditionally the recommended way and enables you to complete the initial settings, for example, mappings.
