ColdFusion not working installed on XAMPP running Apache

Last week I installed the latest versions of XAMPP and ColdFusion. They worked together for a while, but then I started getting a 503 "Service unavailable" when I tried to open ColdFusion .cfm files. HTML files work fine, and phpmyadmin loads, so Apache is ok. Sooo today I uninstalled and reinstalled XAMPP and then ColdFusion with today's downloads. Once again, ColdFusion worked...until it didn't. I'm not doing anything complicated. We're talking hello world kind of stuff.

Any ideas? Is there a place I can look at some log files that might give clues as to what is going wrong?

Did you try restarting the ColdFusion server (or service)? Perhaps it stopped from inactivity (seems odd but who knows).

Also, if you're open to using Railo, I would recommend looking into Vagrant. You can grab a virtual Linux server (managed by Vagrant) with Railo, Tomcat, Apache, etc. configured and ready to go for you. Best of all, you can share this with other people you want on your project without going through a major setup process on each developer machine.
