The ColdFusion MX Administrator provides a browser-based interface for managing your ColdFusion environment. You can configure many settings to provide optimal levels of security and functionality. The available options are based on your edition of ColdFusion MX 7--Standard or Enterprise--as well as your configuration: server, multiserver, or J2EE. For more information on ColdFusion MX configurations, see About the ColdFusion MX 7 installation in Preparing to Install ColdFusion MX 7 in Installing and Using ColdFusion MX.
The default location for the ColdFusion MX Administrator login page is:
http://servername[:portnumber]/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm
Where servername is the fully qualified domain name of your web server. Common values for servername are localhost or 127.0.0.1 (each refers to the web server on the local computer).
If you are using the ColdFusion built-in web server, include the port number as part of the servername. The default port number for the server configuration is 8500; for example, http://servername:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm. The default port number for the multiserver configuration is 8300. If you are using the J2EE configuration, include the port number used by the J2EE application servers web server.
Tip: If you were using the built-in web server in a previous version and upgraded to ColdFusion MX 7, the installer automatically finds an unused port for the built-in web server (typically 8501).
If your ColdFusion MX Administrator is on a remote computer, use the Domain Name Services (DNS) name or Internet Protocol (IP) address of the remote host.
To access the ColdFusion MX Administrator, enter the password specified when you installed ColdFusion MX.
Tip: If you are running in a multihomed environment and have problems displaying the ColdFusion MX Administrator, see Web Server Management for configuration information.
For more information, see Using the ColdFusion MX Administrator.
ColdFusion MX applications require a web server to process ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML) pages. The server and multiserver configurations provide a built-in web server along with support for external web servers, such as Apache, IIS, and Sun ONE Web Server (formerly known as iPlanet).
For more information, see Web Server Management.
ColdFusion MX includes Verity K2 Server search technology. Verity K2 Server is a high-performance search engine designed to process searches quickly in a high-performance, distributed system.
