Used old versions of Coldfusion, CF 10, when installing Coldfusion 2023 it doesn’t ask for the server configuration tool and installs the local server. I run the web server tool for Apache and config it. Restarted services, even restarted machine, but all I get is the error below. Logs aren’t pointing me anywhere. Thoughts?:
Service Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.
Both things you hit do reflect changes since your cf10 experience.
First, as for the cf installer not offering to implement the external web server connector (apache or iis), that changed with cf2016.
Second, as for your error, I’m going to assume you mean that cf is indeed running and you CAN reach the cf admin (through that built-in web server at port 8500).
If so, a simple fix to try is changing the workers.properties file from using localhost to using 127.0.0.1. Restart apache and test again. That file is created by the wsconfig tool, and for more details on this see the similar issue raised–and diagnostics and file paths you can consider–in this other discussion:
As more background, this is due to ANOTHER change since your cf10 experience, one that hit us in March 2020, when Adobe was forced to adopt a TOMCAT change–solving the “ghostcat” security issue–as was discussed in the technotes for updates then to cf2018 and cf2016. I also elaborated on the matters here:

But let us know if the above gets you going. If not, please tell us your OS on which cf is running so we can give more specific suggestions.
