7 Insert the DVD or download the setup file from the Adobe website.
8 If the installation wizard does not start automatically when you insert the DVD, locate the setup.exe file on the
DVD and double-click it. If you are installing from a network or a downloaded file, locate the ColdFusion instal-
lation executable file (coldfusion-80-win.exe) and double-click it.
9 Follow the instructions in the installation wizard and let it run to completion. Ensure that you select Multi-
server configuration.
Note: The installation wizard disables the multiserver configuration option if JRun 4 is already installed on the
computer.
10 Open the ColdFusion Administrator to configure the server.
11 Configure and manage your system, as described in "Configuring Your System" on page 75.
To install any other integrated Adobe or third-party technologies, see "Installing Integrated Technologies" on

Code CFM pages.
14
If you configured an external web server, store CFM pages under your web root directory. If you are using the
built-in web server, store CFM pages under the web application root (jrun_root/servers/cfusion/cfusion-
ear/cfusion-war) and access these pages using a URL of the form http://hostname:8300/context-root/filename.cfm,
as follows:
hostname The machine name, IP address, or localhost.
contextroot The context root for the ColdFusion web application. For more information, see "Context root"
on page 28.
filename The directory path and file to display. The path is relative to the cfusion-war directory.
For example, to display a CFM file located at C:/JRun4/servers/cfusion/cfusion-ear/cfusion-
war/eisapp/index.cfm using the built-in JRun web server and a context root of cfmx, you specify the URL as
http://localhost:8300/cfusion/eisapp/index.cfm.
