I cannot access CF10 developper built in server remotely

[jiceka]

Just successfully installed CF10 developper ediiton with built in server

I can access the web pages from the dev server on

http://localhost:8500

or

http://192.168.1.49:8500

But I cannot access the pages from a remote computer on the same network

Any suggestion would be welcome

Are you running a firewall that is blocking that port (8500)?

[Carl Von Stetten]

Also, did you install ColdFusion using the "Secure Profile".  If you did, you have to explicitly add IP addresses that can access the Administrator console (see the security settings).

Thank you Carl, but I did not use the "Secure Profile" during installation

[jiceka]

Thank you Miguel, I added the port in the exceptions list of the windows firewall

and now I can connect from another laptop on the network.

Such kind of locking CF server access by local dev. machine was normally done by resetting the value of

<attribute name="interface">*</attribute> attribute

to

<attribute name="interface">127.0.0.1</attribute>

of   <service class="jrun.servlet.http.WebService" name="WebService">   service of jrun.xml file but it was done till CF 9 server through this jrun.xml file attribute change.

I cannot find such a file in the cfusion folder
