Use the Server Settings page to manage your ColdFusion server:
Click Server>Settings in the ColdFusion Administrator navigation frame. The Server Settings page appears.
Select settings on the Server Settings page as described in the following table:
Option |
Description |
Default |
Limit simultaneous requests |
To increase system performance, enter a number to limit the simultaneous requests for the ColdFusion Server. When the server reaches your specified limit, requests are queued and handled in the order received.
Note: Restart the ColdFusion Server when you change this setting. |
5 |
Timeout requests after [n] seconds |
Enable this option to prevent unusually lengthy requests from using up server resources. Enter a number of seconds to limit the amount of time that ColdFusion waits before terminating a request. Requests that take longer than the timeout period are terminated. |
Disabled |
Restart at [n] unresponsive requests |
Enable this option if you want the engine to track requests that execute code but fail to return in a timely fashion. Enter a number of unresponsive requests at which the service should be restarted. The service restarts when your specified number of request threads do not respond in the allotted time. |
Enabled; 10 |
Restart when requests terminate abnormally |
Enable this option if you want the engine to track requests that suffer "unexpected exception" abnormal termination conditions. The service restarts if abnormal requests begin to occur on a regular basis. |
Enabled |
Suppress whitespace by default |
Enable this option if you want the engine to compress runs of spaces, tabs and carriage return/line feeds into a single space. Compressing whitespace can significantly compact the output of a CFML template. Developers can locally override this setting for a template, such as to emit preformatted data, by using the cfprocessingdirective tag.
Note: Restart the server when you enable or disable this option. |
Enabled |
Enforce Strict Attribute Validation |
Enable this option if you want to see strict attribute validation rules. Strict validation rules can improve template execution time and prevent many CFML coding errors. Extraneous attributes are not allowed for any tags in CFML. When this option is disabled, irrelevant attributes can be passed to CFML tags. |
Disabled |
Missing Template Handler |
This fields lets you specify a default template to execute any time the ColdFusion Application Server cannot find a requested template. |
Blank |
Site-wide Error Handler |
This field lets you specify a template to execute any time the ColdFusion Application Server encounters errors while processing a request. |
Blank |

Note: Some options require you to restart the ColdFusion Server after making changes.
