Title:

ColdFusion doesn't properly start or restart if ethernet is down even if loopback is up

Problem:  CfmServlet fails to load after startup if the host's ethernet connection is not active, even if the loopback address is active.  

Method: 
1) Stop ColdFusion
2) Turn off the network services  (sudo service network stop)
3) Bring up only the loop back address ($ ifup lo)
4) Do NOT bring up the ethernet (or turn it off using: $ ifdown eth0)
5) Use ifconfig to confirm ethernet down but loopback is up
6) Start ColdFusion
7) Make a request to a cfm page
8) Observe error
9) Start the ethernet ($ ifup eth0) or restart the network service
10) Make the request to a cfm again
11) Still observe error
12) Restart ColdFusion
13) Observe error goes away only when a) the ethernet is started and then b) ColdFusion is restarted, in that order.

In summary, ColdFusion will not properly initialize when the ethernet is down.  This would be a rarely occurring scenario, but it's real world use case would be when an admin has started and restarted ColdFusion while testing a web app over localhost but hasn't realized that ethernet is down even though loopback is up.

Result:

I am unable to observe the issue with a J2EE installation of CF u8 on Jboss on OSX 10.8 @Steven, Could this be specific to your environment. Can I get the platform details and CF installation details. steps I followed: sudo ifconfig en0 down. (could not find any command to turn off the network service in general) sudo ifconfig lo0 up restart CF server access the CF admin page > comes up normally.
