Verify ColdFusion data sources

To verify ColdFusion data sources on the ODBC, OLE DB or Native data source page:

  1. In the ColdFusion Administrator navigation frame, click Server then a data sources link: ODBC Data sources, OLE DB Data Sources, or Native Data Sources.

  2. Click CF Settings and check that the Disable database connection option is not enabled. For details, see Select ColdFusion settings.

  3. To verify all listed sources, click Verify All Connections and refer to the Status column of the table. "OK" displays next to each verified data source. "Failed" displays for any source that could not be verified; the selection is also highlighted.

    To verify an individual data source, click the Verify link provided in the Controls column of the Connected Data Sources table. A message tells you whether the data source was successfully verified. Click Go Back when you finish reviewing this message.
