Can't get local CF testing server to work

[Ratbags21]

I've installed the development version of CF9 on my PC and checked that all the relevant services have started.
I followed tutorials on which check boxes to tick during the installation.
However, I keep getting the message "This link appears to be broken" when I launch a web page in
a browser.

I have saved a "timetest.cfm" page in the c:\coldfusion9\

http://wwwroot\

folder and specified the URL

http://localhost:8500/timetest.cfm

but no joy, get the above error message.

What did I do wrong?

many thanks

Paul

1. Can you access the CF Administrator screen?

http://localhost:8500/cfide/administrator/index.cfm

2. Assuming everything installed correctly, and the CF Service is running a common cause of problems is blocking by firewalls. You may need to add an exception to allow access to the built in web server.
