Starting and stoping CF will generally require root/administrator access
in default install. If you take the following suggestions make sure you're
aware of how to exec system commands safely in a web accessible script.
*NIX:
-----
If your under *nix w/ Perl or PHP support; change to a user w/ permissions
to control the CF process then run $CF_root/bin/start and stop (default is
/opt/coldfusion).
WIN32:
------
Under NT w/ Perl, PHP, or ASP support; change to a user w/ permissions to
control the CF process then run:
NET START "Cold Fusion Executive"
NET START "Cold Fusion Application Server"
NET START "Cold Fusion RDS"
I think I have the correct order, there's a "cycle.bat" or something under
%CF_root%\bin\ that will provide the correct order if I'm mistaken. Reverse
order for NET STOP.
If you don't have knowledge of these languages and you'd like a Perl or
PHP script for *nix/NT I can whip you up one on request, or if you run
Webmin I've made a quick module for it (nothing fancy at all, purely for my
own use when no SSH is available). If you're IIS on NT someone w/ more
knowledge than I could probably make a quick ASP script for you.

Subject: Restarting CF from Web
Hello! In CF 4.0 there was a nifty java app that allowed me to stop and
restart CF from a web page, however it is no more in 4.5. I no longer have
a copy of 4.0 and really need to get a copy of this. Does anyone have a
resource to get this or an alternative that will do the same thing?
Thanks!
