I've been trying to get my coldfusion server running on my virtual dedicated server for two days now and am stumped.  Server boots and connects to the apache server with no error messages displayed in SSH, but when I go to the administrator page I get the following error displayed :

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator to inform of the time the error occurred and of anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

My cfserver.log file reads (from the last reboot) as follows :

    got it fixed.  turns out that somehow during either my installation or someting i did after installation corrupted my liscense file for CF.  Uninstalled (with a lot of hesitation) and re-installed, and wallah, my cf server is running great!
