Yes, I have a clue as to what you are missing. I suspect the problem is that you have told CF to setup the new instance, and by default its setup to listen on the built-in web server, at 8500. And THAT looks at the ColdFusion10\[instancename]\wwwroot, and THAT only has the CFIDE, not your own code.
What you need to do next is run the CF web server configuration tool, to connect your web server to use that new instance. You say you are using “apache-tomcat”. CF 10 runs atop Tomcat (which is an Apache project). Do you mean you are also using Apache the web server? In any case, see the CF docs, in either the Installing CF manual or the “Administering and Configuring” CF manual to see how to run the CF’s “web server configuration tool” , as suitable to your web server. Hope that helps. /charlie From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:cfaussie@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Stephen M Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2014 7:43 AM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] Configure a second cf server instance I'm trying to set up a second instance of CF. This is in CF10 with Apache-Tomcat So I went into cfadmin, clicked the instance manager, clicked add instance and the instance was created with an url of localhost:8500 It seems to work OK because I can go into the 2nd instance cfadmin and configure different mappings and datasources BUT the only directory it will serve is CFIDE/administrator The first instance is happy to serve up c:\www as the webroot. I want the 2nd instance to serve up c:\wwwdemo So i have tried to configure that in system32/drivers/etc/hosts and in the various apache conf files. I tried mapping c:\wwwdemo in my 2nd instance cfadmin but while its happy the map it, I get a coldfusion cannot find error when I try to browse to wwwdemo/index.cfm I can't even browse to wwwdemo/index.html So does anyone have a clue about what I am missing? regards, Stephen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
