Problem:
The ColdFusion MX Application Server (6.1) service (which co-exists with CF5 on our local Windows 2000 server) is not able to successfully restart. I got the following error message when I tried to restart it:
Windows could not start the ColdFusion MX Application Server on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 2.

Possible Reasons:
According to ColdFusion TechNote (http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/dsn_reserved_words.htm), ColdFusion MX Application Server service will not restart if certain reserved words (service,
comp) is used as a data source name in the ColdFusion Administrator:

What we have done:
1. We searched both jrun-resources.xml file and neo-query.xml file located in CFusionMX folder. We did find a data source name with comp in it and we replaced it with a non-reserved word.

2. We also followed another ColdFusion TechNote
(http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/cfmx61_startup_timing.htm) and changed the timeout value to 900 (the number of seconds allowable before the ColdFusion service startup will timeout.)

Question now:
After I have done everything I mentioned above I still couldn't restart the ColdFusionMX Server service and got the same error as I did before. What should I do next? Are there any other reserved words for ColdFusionMX Administrator besides "service" and "comp"? Can we use "company" as the data source name?

Please help!
