Setting up CF in local computer

Hi,

I installed CF Developer version on my desktop (standard install with JRun).  The sites I have are currently running from

http://localhost:8500/site1

http://localhost:8500/site2

etc ...

Is there a way to configure CF so that I can call the sites from

http://site1

http://site2

etc ...

The reason I want to do this is so that I can access the root directory for each site.  Right now, if I use "/" from any site, it goes to "C:\ColdFusion9\wwwroot\".  I'd like for the root directory of site 1 to be at "C:\ColdFusion9\wwwroot\site1\".

    There is no need to reinstall ColdFusion. Just install Apache and use the wsconfig tool to connect them.

    Yes, you need to use a web server to make that happen. Either IIS (If you are on Win7) or Apache would be good choices.

    Thanks for the tip.  I will re-install CF on apache and give it a try.
