How to find a cold fusion databse in site

Hey guys

I'm sure some of you have gotten in this situation before. Unfortunately I do not have the experience in CF to know how to do this myself. Basically I'm updating a clients webpage where the webmaster left (quit? who knows) And it is written in cold fusion.

During the file upload the function sticks a few property attributes into a database to match with a file so when you list it later it shows these attributes (name of person, date, where they want to put the advertisement etc). However for the life of me I don't know where to look to find where this database is located. If there is a file I can access to get into it that would be great. My job is just to update the file types to add one more category.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to log in to the Coldfusion Administrator. You may find a link to it in CFIDE in the Coldfusion directory or from the Start Menu (in Windows). It could be something like http://127.0.0.1/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm.

The problem would be that you will need to know the password.

Once you're logged in, click on Data Sources and you should find your database from the datasource name.
