I have an old CF8 server, running as J2EE under JRUN, that's been running fine for several years.
Last night, I was in the adminstrator revising a sandbox and RDS. Settings were saved successfully, and I restarted the service. And now *all* CFM pages (including /CFIDE/administrator) simply return a white page. When analyzing the request with Firebug, it reports a 503 server error.
I'm running under Windows Server 2003, SP1, Standard.
I'm unsure of the exact CF server version, since I can't get into the administrator to check, but I believe it has at least one service pack installed.
The cfusion-out.log has the following:
12/01 09:05:09 user CFInternalServlet: init
12/01 09:05:09 user failed to load: flex.server.j2ee.filemanager.FileManagerServlet

etc

etc
(I can certainly provide more detailed logs if needed)
I'm figuring the "access denied" errors have something to do with it, since I was, indeed, adjusting sandbox security in the administrator right before I began experiencing the 503 errors.
But I'm unsure how to solve, now that I can't even get back into the administrator.
Any way to get this instance back up and running, short of a reinstall?
Thanks in advance!
