Hi, I downloaded CF 9 onto my Windows XP Professional installation under a trial expecting it to revert to developer mode which would let me continue to use it to test cfm's on my own machine at ColdFusion9/wwwroot/myproject.

Now the license has expired pointing IE at my cfm doesn't work and checking CF ApplicationServer service it will no longer start .

What am I missing  please?

    I've never seen that behavior - in all cases I've seen, it has simply converted to Developer. Are you sure there's no other problem causing the service not to start?

    Thanks for your response.

    I've considered uninstalling it all and starting again. Thought I was just

    being stupid hence my post first.

    What do you think?

    cheers,

    Well, it's probably easier to do that than to fiddle around with it, if that's really the reason it's not starting. But did you actually verify that this is why the service isn't starting?

    Don;t really know how to find out why its not restarting. The error message

    wasn't helpful.
