Question

Reset password for user that ColdFusion runs as, now ColdFusion doesn't start

A very basic, stupid mistake. I decided I needed to reset the password for the Windows account that the ColdFusion services run as, and now, trying to start the ColdFusion services results in "Error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure."

 

As such, I cannot get into the CF admin screens, so any suggestions on how I go about fixing this?

 

Thanks,

Never mind. I was able to remember what the former password was and reset it back to that, and was able to get CF up & running.

Of course, in case this ever happens in an unrecoverable way, any suggestions on how to fix such a problem?
