Robert's referring to Dreamweaver, for those who can't tell. Robert, whether you need to setup the "remote server" of the site or just the "testing server" depends on whether you are connecting to your local version of CF on the same machine that's running DWMX. I run that way, and I have "none" for "remote server". In testing server, the "server model" should be CF, and the "access" is "local/network", and the testing folder should be set for where your web server root is. Finally, the URL prefix should have whatever would precede the part that says /cfide/adminisrator. For me, that's http://localhost. For you, that may need a port. Check out the DW help for "Setting the Testing Server category options". But if your'e saying your CF server is remote from your laptop, then perhaps you do need your "Remote server" tab filled in. I've not used that for a long while. See the DW help for "Setting the Configure Server dialog box options for RDS". I will point out as well that you don't NEED to use a site to use RDS. See the DW help for "Setting up Dreamweaver to work without defining a site". /Charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/

In trying to host the WACK group last week we basically got stuck on: the RDS login in the DB setup. I have this error that wont go away. "The server name or address could not be resolved. Possible reasons: 1. The URL specified for the site's testing server may be incorrect: http://blah 2. The testing server may be incorrectly configured (for example, ColdFusion may not be running)." CF runs, I can get into the CF7 Administrator just fine. All that make sence is that maybe the SITE needs its Remote Info set somehow. It was working at one time now all the sudden it is not. I dont know if it was previously configured or not but it is now at NONE. I assume that RDS is what I want. **** My laptop needs to go to a remote server. So I assume RDS? I just tried Local/Network and it did not make a difference. I can however choose from: None, Local/Network, WebDAV, RDS, and Visual SourceSafe. **** Any ideas on what is breaking, why, and how to fix it? This seems to have happened a few times during my learning curve with DW, and CF. Help please..... Im so frustrated.... AGAIN... lol. Robert P.
