Web Server Management
Last updated 2/21/2012
Web server configuration
ColdFusion uses the Web Server Configuration Tool to configure an external web server with the modules and settings
that the connector requires connect to ColdFusion. You can run the Web Server Configuration Tool through either
the command-line interface or the graphical user interface (GUI). In either case, the Web Server Configuration Tool
configures your external web server to interact with a ColdFusion server.
Using GUI mode
The Web Server Configuration Tool includes a GUI mode, which you can use to specify external web server
configuration settings through a graphical interface.
Note: When you use the Web Server Configuration Tool in GUI mode, select the Configure Web Server for ColdFusion
Applications check box.
Run the Web Server Configuration Tool in GUI mode
1 Open a console window.
Note: In Windows, to start the Web Server Configuration Tool, select Start > Programs > Adobe > ColdFusion 9 >
Web Server Configuration Tool.
2 Change to the cf_root/runtime/bin (server configuration) or jrun_root/bin (multiserver configuration) directory.
3 Start the Web Server Configuration Tool using the wsconfig.exe (Windows) or wsconfig (UNIX) command.

files:
