First time install issue

First time installing Lucee.

Was following the video examples and the Hello World is throwing an error.
I added <cfoutput>Hello World!</> and it works… but when it gets to the
<cfdump var="#cgi#">

I am getting a missinginclude message
Page /lucee/Component.cfc [D:indetpub\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lucee\context\Component.cfc} not found
Mapping /lucee
The Error Occurred in /Dump.cfc: line 2

Other than having the inetpub on D: and using server 2016, i followed the install videos exactly.

What do I have wrong and how do I fix it?

Don’t forget to tell us about your stack!

OS: Windows Server 2016
Java Version: 11.0.7 64 bit
Tomcat Version: 9.0.35
Lucee Version: 5.3.6.61

Didn’t test it on win2016, but it should be quite the same thing on that box. On which part/step of the videos did you add the d:\inetpub\wwwroot? Because if you say you did it exactly how it’s made in the video, I can’t see at which point you’ve added or changed the webroot in IIS? If it was done between Step 1 and Step 2 it should be all ok.

Check if:

  • you’ve changed/added the basic binding in IIS to the new webroot correctly, and
  • you’ve set all the permissions for lucee service correctly
    Then try the following steps:
  1. Stop Lucee service
  2. Delete the WEB-INF folder in your webroot d:\inetpub\wwwroot
  3. Delete the following lucee-server folder /path/of/lucee/installation/tomcat/lucee-server
  4. Restart the Lucee Service and wait for all contexts to be created
  5. Try opening your app in the browser again.

Good luck and please post back if the issue persists

Well, I just bounced the entire server and it is now working. (If in doubt, give it a kick!).

Thanks for the prompt reply.

FYI, I changed the webroot between step 1 & 2.

Now need to see if I can access my sql servers (probably need to open it on the firewall first).

Again, thanks for the help!
