ColdFusion 11 REST returning 404

I cannot seem to get CF REST to work at all. After trying the docs and a couple articles verbatim, I get a 404.

I am using apache - and according to other posts, JkMountFile "C:/ColdFusion11/config/wsconfig/1/uriworkermap.properties" May be needed - I added it just in case, but that doesn't seem to make a difference.

APACHE VHOST

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName   127.0.0.1
    ServerAlias  127.0.0.1
    DocumentRoot "C:/wwwroot/CFREST2"
    ErrorLog     "C:/wwwroot/CFREST2/logs/error.log"
    CustomLog    "C:/wwwroot/CFREST2/logs/access.log" combined
    JkMountFile "C:/ColdFusion11/config/wsconfig/1/uriworkermap.properties"
    <Directory   "C:/wwwroot/CFREST2/logs/">
        AllowOverride None
        Options None
        Order allow,deny
        Deny from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Example:

CFADMIN - registered 
Root path: C:\wwwroot\CFREST2
Host: 127.0.0.1
Service Mapping: test

FILE: (C:\wwwroot\CFREST2\rest3.cfc)

<cfcomponent rest="true" restpath="restService" >

    <cffunction name="sayHello" access="remote" returntype="String" httpmethod="GET" >

        <cfset rest = "Hello World" >

    <cfreturn rest >

</cffunction>

MAKING GET REQUEST IN POSTMAN:

http://127.0.0.1/rest/test/restService/

RETURNS:

404

MAKING GET REQUEST IN POSTMAN:

http://127.0.0.1/rest/test/restService/sayHello

RETURNS:

404

I have tried a few variations, abut ALWAYS get the 404.

FWIW, over 4 years after the question was asked, and I haven't used CF for a while, and I'm trying to work my way through setting up a RESTful service.

I was getting a 404, and saw this in my exception.log:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: .../cfusion/wwwroot/WEB-INF/rest-skeletons/path.to.component.Fubar.class (Permission denied)

I checked and the account running the service didn't have permission to write to the "rest-skeletons" directory. I changed that, no more 404, on to the next problem!

Try to initialize by running this in the separate .cfm file:

<cfset restInitApplication("C:\wwwroot\CFREST2","test")>

To call: http://127.0.0.1/rest/test/restService
