Error Occurred While Processing Request Error Diagnostic Information Cold Fusion server application not currently running.

You should start the Cold Fusion server executable (CFSERVER.EXE) before attempting to submit requests to Cold Fusion.

Note: A reliable way to ensure that the server is always running is to include it in your Windows 'Startup' folder. This will make sure that the Cold Fusion server application is loaded automatically when you start Windows.
