Saving your ColdFusion page

In order for the ColdFusion server to process the page, you must save the ColdFusion page on a computer where the ColdFusion MX is installed. If you are creating your pages on a local server (on which ColdFusion is running), then you can save the pages locally; if you are using a remote server, then you must save your pages on that server.

If you are using the ColdFusion MX J2EE configuration, you typically save ColdFusion pages under the ColdFusion web application root. For example, in the default directory structure when using the J2EE configuration with JRun, you save pages under jrun_root/servers/cfusion/cfusion-ear/cfusion-war. When using JRun, you can also run the Web Server Configuration Tool and save pages under your web root directory.

Tip: ColdFusion MX on Macintosh OS X uses the J2EE configuration.

To save the code you typed to create a ColdFusion page:

Create a new directory called test under the web_root or web_application_root directory.
In the test directory, save the file as cfpage.cfm.
