Depending on what web server and what version of CF you're using, the problem could be as simple as a missing file. If you install CF 5 on Apache, for example, it doesn't create the necessary stub file for RDS, the URL for which is /CFIDE/Main/ide.cfm. If that URL isn't valid on your server, you can just create an empty file there, name it ide.cfm, and you'll be all set. If you're using CF 5 on IIS, this problem can occur if the "check that file exists" option is enabled for the CF ISAPI extension in the IIS MMC. In this case, you can clear the option (which will give you better performance, but which may be undesirable for other reasons), or you can create the file as described above.
