The following is the log of my CF8 running on winXP-SP3:

Server coldfusion ready (startup time: 63 seconds)

I am unable to serve any cfm files nor get into Admin.

I have reinstalled twice but I get the same result.

What is wrong and how can it be fixed...

warning Unable to open C:\ColdFusion8\runtime/lib/license.properties

That looks odd. I expected the license.properties file to be in C:\Coldfusion8\lib\ instead.

Unfortunately, the situation did not change after I installed the Coldfusion 8.0.1 Updater.

Is there any other info, log, I can provide to better diagnose this problem ?

Is this an installation that worked at one time, and is suddenly throwing an error, or is this a first time installation?

Thank you for responding.

This is a first time installation.

I have installed CF8 on 2 separate winxp-sp3 dell computers, multiple times, and I still get the same error.

However, when I install CF8 on a dell with vista home premium the error does not occur.
