I don't think ColdFusion mappings are involved when accessing files
other than ColdFusion templates and components (.cfm and .cfc). If you
look at the source of your web page in your browser, you'll probably see
that the URLs are still /cup/images/image.png. The web server then
Since your image files are being served by the web server, not by Coldfusion,
you will have to create a new variable to hold your image directory prefix, or
you will have to create an Alias for your web server to honor. For Apache, in
your VirtualHost directive for the site you would specify:
So why does the mapping in CFADmin work if I set that up? That is all I am

No, it doesn't. You're flat out wrong. CF does not, has not, and never will
parse HTML.
It only looks for CFML code to parse, and handles it accordingly.
Ex.
img src=/foo/bar/image.png / !---// never parsed by CF ---
img src=/#foo#/bar/image.png / !---// never parsed by CF ---
cfoutput
The answer is still the same: What you are expecting will never be

The fact that it works in this case is not the issue. CF mappings whether
defined in the application and/or in the administrator operate the same
way. You need to define for us, since we're not sitting their in front of
