Event Gateways Do Not Appear

I am interested in working with Event Garteways in the ColdFusion administrator. However, in looking over the administrator at my workplace I see that Event Gateways do not appear among the various settings available for customization. What do I need to do to get this to appear on the administrator page? Be advised that reinstalling CF on the server is not an option available to me, so I am hoping for a work-around. Thanks!

What's your Coldfusion version? Event gateways began with MX7.

What's your edition or license? The Standard Edition does not support event gateways.

In any case, here is a workaround, assuming your version supports gateways. Log in to the Administrator.

The event gateway section has three pages, namely: Settings, Gateway Types and Gateway Instances. Their paths relative to the administrator are as follows:

Settings: /eventgateway/index.cfm
Gateway Types: /eventgateway/gatewaytypes.cfm
Gateway Instances: /eventgateway/gateways.cfm

Say, you're now in the default Coldfusion Administrator page. To get the gateway Settings page, replace the index.cfm in the browser's address field with eventgateway/index.cfm.

To further illustrate, my pages are

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

Settings: http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/administrator/eventgateway/index.cfm
Gateway Types: http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/administrator/eventgateway/gatewaytypes.cfm
Gateway Instances: http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/administrator/eventgateway/gateways.cfm

or upgrade to cf8. standard comes w/the same event gateways though they are
throttled.

We run the standard verion at work version 7. I was able to work with it on my notebook as I run the developer edition. Now I understand the problem. It looks like I am out of luck unless we upgrade to the enterprise version on our server. Thanks!
