Trying to learn ColdFusion but can't access Administrator

Solution

Both Seybsen and Jason hit on the two most common reasons for not being able to hit the administrator. Seeing as you're on Windows, it's unlikely to be case-sensitivity. But not having index.cfm as a default document will be a problem. You can add it to the http.conf:

<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex dex index.html index.cfm default.cfm
</IfModule>

If hitting the entire string including index.cfm doesn't work, then it's likely Mark's solution. To elaborate, you'll need to check either the http.conf or the mod_jk.conf to make sure that the alias is there:

Alias /CFIDE "C:\[full path to CFIDE]\CFIDE"
<Directory "C:\[full path to CFIDE]\CFIDE">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

That alias should work for all virtual hosts as well.
