Hello Dave, Thank you very much for the reply. I tried as you suggested (good suggestion, btw), but I am still stuck. I thought it might be helpful to provide more detail:
I am running CF 9.0.1 on Windows Server 2k8 Standard x64. CF is installed in C:\Coldfusion9. Multiple development sites are running under IIS7 at individual private IP addresses (10.10.1.xxx). The webroots for these sites are not within C:\Coldfusion9, but are within the D:\dev\prjxxxx directory. On the development server, I did run adminstart.bat in C:\Coldfusion9\runtime\bin. Here is what I entered during the server setup in CFB2: General Settings... Server Name: Development Description: [blank] Application Server: Jrun Host Name: 10.10.1.199 "Is Local" is selected Web Server Port: 80 J2EE Settings... Context Root: [blank] Application Server Name: [blank] RDS Username: Developer PDS Password: <password> Enable SSL is not selected Auto Start/Stop are not selected Local Server Settings... Server Home: P:\ (This points to C:\Coldfusion9 on the dev server.) Document Root: Q:\ (This points to D:\dev\prj1425 on the dev server.) Virtual Host Settings... Name: prj1425 Host Name: 10.10.1.199 Port:80 Document Root: Q:\ When I try to refresh that server, I get this in the console log: [Development]:(06/07 at 03:39:19) Server is available. Getting server settings. [Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:39:19) Unable to fetch server mappings. [Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:39:20) Unable to fetch server mappings. [Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:39:20) Unable to get the log directory. When I try to restart it: [Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:40:17) Unable to query service for the server Development. Now I realize I am not the brightest bulb in the box, but the setup instructions and video all seem a bit too vague to me... All help appreciated. -RR On Thu, Jun 7, 2012 at 1:32 PM, Dave Watts <dwa...@figleaf.com> wrote: > > > Anyway, I think my problem is that both my CF install directory and my > web > > root are on another server on the local network.
