Problem I ran into recently where I knew the collection existed. Running Coldfusion 8 in multiserver configuration on a Windows machine that previously had Coldfusion 7 installed. Tried to use the cfindex tag to no avail.

Trial and error and some reading here on Adobe's site led me to this:

1. Uninstalled Coldfusion 7 Search Service still on the box
2. Checked cfadmin to see what ports should be used 9951, 9921 & 9961
3. Noted that k2index.exe and k2server.exe services were not running via cports (i.e. 9921 & 9961)
4. ran C:\JRun4\verity\verity-install.bat and noted the following errors:
   1. WARNING: The RCAdmin call failed. Command = styleset 1 "Def_FileSystem" 1 1 filesys "default File System style files" y exit
   2. WARNING: The RCAdmin call failed. Command = styleset 1 "ColdFusionK2" 1 1 filesys "ColdFusion K2 Style Files" y exit
   3. WARNING: The RCAdmin call failed. Command = styleset 1 "ColdFusionVspider" 1 1 filesys "ColdFusion Vspider Style Files" y exit
   4. WARNING: The RCAdmin call failed. Command = serverset 1 "ColdFusionK2_server1" 9921 "ColdFusion K2Server" y y y ColdFusionK2 "C:\JRun4\verity\k2\common" 200 2 n 300000 900000 y exit
   5. WARNING: The RCAdmin call failed. Command = indexerset 1 "ColdFusionK2_indexserver1" 9961 "ColdFusion K2 Index Server" ColdFusionK2 4 1 y exit
5. ran C:\JRun4\verity\k2\_nti40\bin\rcadmin.exe
   1. styledel Def_FileSystem
   2. styledel ColdfusionK2
   3. styledel ColdfusionVspider
6. ran C:\JRun4\verity\verity-install.bat (still will get serverset and indexerset failure messages)

Works again.

Think the problem is either because (a) had Coldfusion 7 search service installed or (b) the admin.xml files inside the verity directory (subdirectory) had bad values in them and running styledel and subsequently the .bat file resolved it.
