Try running the "webserver configuration utility" first off.  I tried browsing to the Administrator portion of your site and IE wanted to know what program I wanted to use to open the index.cfm file which is a sure sign of a configuration issue.  

You may want to check the livedoc at http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=ColdFusion_Documentation&file=00000049.htm

On a side note, once you get your site up and running you probably want to restrict access to the CFIDE directory so that it can only be accessed locally.  

Hope this helps,

i think you probably just tried that as i was using the config tool. could you do me a favour and try that again now and post back the results?

yea i'll get round to restricting access when i get t sort - if i get it sorted!!!!! :-(
I'm able to get to the Configuration and Settings Migration Wizard.  Make sure you put index.cfm into your list of default documents for Apache.

but you should be good to go now.

when you say default docs do you mean the bit in the httpd file that says:

<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.cfm
</IfModule>

??

or should i add it somewhere else?

by the way how are you accessing it? what are you typing in to your browswer?
