Just tried that. Didn't help. After reinstalling CFMX I get a "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error" when trying to access CFIDE/administrator.
A website has mentioned that SP2 prevents port scanning so CF fails to complete it's install. See http://cfblog.co.uk/index.cfm/2006/12/14/Coldfusion-Installation-Problems He provides a piece of code which will (or should) make the scan on port 2920 only. C:\coldfusionmx7\runtime\jre\bin\java -DWSConfig.PortScanStartPort=2920 -DWSConfig.PortScanCount=1 -jar C:\coldfusionmx7\runtime\lib\wsconfig.jar Not knowing diddly about this I asked a network guy if this made any sense. He thought so. :-/ Now I hit another obstacle. A macromedia JRun Web Server Configuration pop-up screen appears. It gave me an option to "Add" but then got an alert message which said: "Could not connect to any JRun servers on host localhost. Confirm that the JRun server is started." I hit OK and got the screen "Add Web Server Configuration which asked for the JRun Server Properties: JRun Host and JRun Server. Now what?
