Ok, this is a bit of a bizarre solution, at least to me.  I thought I would
throw this out. Both, for any others who may stumble into this, and to get
insight into why this caused the mapping failings and what other
ramifications there may be.

BACKGROUND:
We are in the process of moving our recently deployed, rebuilt website to a
Brand New Box being hosted at an ISP.  When we moved the code, all of our
server mappings failed with error messages such as below.

The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect The error
occurred in D:\Inetpub\websites\bloodsource\includes\Templates\Tier1.cfm:
line 17

17 :            <cfinclude template="/SMF/includes/JavaScript/init.js">

After trying this, that and the other thing with no success, we noticed that
the "browse" directory widget in the administrator did not work because the
box was apparently lacking a Java Virtual Machine (JVM).  So we installed
this, and the mappings started working!

My question is WHY?  Apparently server mappings need a JVM?  Is this
documented somewhere?  What exactly is the relationship between CFMX, JVM
and Jrun (or other J2EE server)?  Just one of those things I would like to
understand!
