If you get this error on a fresh install of Coldfusion (CentOS, CF8), check your /etc/hosts. It’s generally because its trying to reach the external interface instead of the internal one.
Configuring the web server connector (Launched on the first run of the ColdFusion 8 start script)
Running apache connector wizard…
ColdFusion 8 not started, will retry connector 12 more time(s)

Follow-up comment rss or Leave a TrackbackJust like to add a confirmation to this one. I just spent a couple of hours trying to work out why coldfusion wouldn’t start and once I added my hostname (pete-desktop in my case) as an extra to the localhost(127.0.0.1) entry in my hosts file, cf started immediately. Could have done with a message from coldfusion here…
cf8 developer edition on Ubuntu 8.04.
