Cold Fusion Web server

Question

Does Cold Fusion come with a web server, or do I have to have
something like PWS installed?

Answer 1

Yes, as Ian said, it does come with a web server, but it's
intended for development on a local box only, and by default is set
to run on port 8500. It purports to process only for a single IP
address, although to my knowledge that plays out more in a way that
you cannot have two simultaneous requests from different IP
addresses. (i.e., you could still hit the webserver from one
machine, then hit it from another machine two seconds later).
At any rate, give it a download and try it out. The
installation is easy. Don't expect to use CF's built-in web server
for production purposes, though.
