Hi Experts,

                       I am new to ColdFusion, I am unable to run .cfm file in cmd and in web browser.

 

1. Should I add .cfm file inside coldfusion\wwwroot\

2. How to run .cfm file

3. how to add server in CF builder

4. How to run file in Web browser (Kindly please say how the process works.)

 

I have installed ColdFusion and ColdFusion Builder

 

In cmd - coldfusion.exe -start -console

 

Installed ColdFusion Administrator 

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

    Correct answer sdsinc_pmascari

    Did you connect ColdFusion to a web server, such as IIS?  If so, put your .cfm files into a folder in one of your web sites and load it using your site's domain such as: http://yoursite.com/index.cfm

     

    If you did not connect it to a web server, you can use ColdFusion's built in web server.  In your ColdFusion folder is a 'wwwroot' directory.  Should be something like: /ColdFusion2023/cfusion/wwwroot

     

    Place a .cfm file in there and it should load in your browser with this web address: http://127.0.0.1:8500/index.cfm
