Check to be sure that your Web server is installed and running before you install ColdFusion by following these steps:
Open a Web browser.
In the address line, enter
the URL for a Web page or site. For example, if the file myindex.htm is
in your Web document root directory, load the page in your browser using
localhost URL:
http://127.0.0.1/myindex.htm
Press Enter. If the Web server is running, the page displays. Otherwise, you see an error message.
