ColdFusion CommandBox - Forbidden message

I have a question related to CommandBox setup. I use latest version of ColdFusion and my folder structure looks like this:

D:/CommandBox/wwwroot

Inside of the wwwroot folder I created index.cfm file. That file contains only one line of code:

<cfoutput>#now()#</cfoutput>

Once I run this in my browser this is the url I use:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/

The result output is the error message that I see in the browser:

Forbidden

If I use this url code will produce the correct output:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.cfm

I would like to know why index.cfm has to be included in url? Is there a way to set index.cfm to be default landing page? Also, I found in my root folder C:\Users\myusername\.CommandBox\server\D9F80673BC7799BE959B513656FE8F55-CommandBox\lucee-5.3.6.61\WEB-INF file web.xml that contains this code:

<!-- default file to execute if directory is called with no file name, e.g. http://yourip.com/ !-->
  <welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>index.cfm</welcome-file>
    <welcome-file>index.lucee</welcome-file>
    <welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
    <welcome-file>index.htm</welcome-file>
  </welcome-file-list>

As you can see per comment above the code this should be default landing page. If anyone knows the reason and solution for this issue please let me know. Thanks.

There has to be index.html or index.cfm file in root folder, make sure you are not missing both.

The solution that I found for the issue above was next.

 1. First step in this process is to create index.cfm file inside your
    root folder (CommandBox/wwwroot)
    
 2. Stop the CommandBox
    
 3. Start CommandBox again
    
 4. Entered this url in your browser: 127.0.0.1:8080 (you can replace 8080 with your port number)
