ColdFusion Developers Edition

[Torch7]

Is it possible to setup multiple instances of ColdFusion Developers Edition, for a development environment.

I have 4 sites that I am constantly maintaining, and would like to have a development environment setup locally, and not have develop on the shared host that I am using.

is there any reason why you would need 4 different instances?

what server os would you be developing on locally?

I am not sure "neilmerton"

I am using Windows XP, I want to be able to replicate the exact environments from the Hosting site.

On my local box, everything is going through http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/SiteName/

I just want to be able to go to pehaps a host file induced DNS, ie:

http://devSiteName.com

then i'm pretty sure that the best option is to go with setting up Apache to use ColdFusion. there's a good write-up with links on the following page:

you can also read through eric's article here on SitePoint:
