I just installed ColdFusion 6.1 today on a Windows 2000 Server running IIS 5.0.
I configured it to use IIS as the external server. The installation seemed to
go well and I typed up my first cfm document and copied it into
c:\inetpub]wwwroot. Unfortunately I keep getting the following even though I
know the file is in the right place
=========
Error Occurred While Processing Request
File not found: /test.cfm

Please try the following:

* Check the ColdFusion documentation to verify that you are using the
correct syntax.
* Search the Knowledge Base to find a solution to your problem.

===============================
As you can see I managed to turn on verbose error logging. I looked through
the documentation as well as the forums but I can't see why this does not work.


The file is in the directory that CF is configured to look in. When I remove
the file I get the typical file not found error. However, when I put the file
back in I get the error above. This leads me to beleive that the file not found
is a misleading heading.

I have asp.net turned on as well. This is to create a dual ASP.NET/
ColdFusionMX environment that I will need to work through Sean Nicholson's
book. Dreamweaver MX 2004 and Databases.

The ASP.NET files work fine.

Hope someone can help me on my journey as I am looking forward to getting into
CF.

Here is the code for test.cfm
