Forgot ColdFusion 8 Password?

If you've forgotten your ColdFusion 8 admin password, or for some reason the server isn't accepting it, here is how you can reset it:
  • Stop the "ColdFusion MX Application Server" Service
  • Open the "neo-security.xml" file contained at %CFMXInstallRoot%\lib
  • Find the line: "" and change the true to false, then save the file
  • Restart the "ColdFusion MX Application Server" Service
  • Go to the ColdFusion Administrator again and set a password
