I have just download the installer for Coldfusion 8. I am
running a intel.
The install completes and I get a message that reads:
You have successfully completed the first step in installing
Adobe Coldfusion 8
Howver, the ColFusion 8 service does not appear to be
running, the web connectors did not install successfully, and the
webserver and/or website could not be reach on port 80. Possible
reasons include the Adobe Coldfusion 8 service 8 failed to satrt,
the 2930 or 51800 ports are blocked, or the web server and or
website is not running or not configured to liten on port 80 (in
which case this is not an error).
Do the following to complete the installation:
1) Consult the installation guide abbout how to manually
configure the web server connector. Where is this guide?
2) Ensure that any firewall software blocking ports 2930 or
51800 is disabled. Howw do I do this?
3) Ensure the Coldfusion 8 Service is started? I think I have
done this but now info on doing this?
4) Manually Configure your web server connectors? Come on
guys I am a developer I dont know how to do this?
5) Ensure that your web server and websites are started?
6) continuse your installation by logging into the
configuration wizard at
http://localhost:80/CFIDE/administration/index.cfm?
I get an error message and safari download the page to my desktop?
I have got to say that the documentation with this trial is
very poor and uncharacteristic of adobe. Adobe have a huge base in
graphic designers that want to be involved in the web and you do
this to them? Hopefully someone can point me in the correct
direction. I have also tried to install it at home on my PC using
iis7 and had no joy either!! very little documentation available
again. I have called the technical helpline that told me if I buy
the software I will get support? I want to run the trial to see if
I want to buy it? v frustrating
