Installation Problem on Mac

[benbankson]

When i downloaded the ColdFusion Trial and set it for the developers version it installs fine until the end. When its supposed to automatically launch the configuration wizard it says

You have successfully completed the first step in installing Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7.

However, the ColdFusion service did not install successfully, and the web server and/or website could not be reached on port 80. Possible reasons include the ColdFusion service failing to start, blocked 2920 or 51011 ports, or the web server and/or website is not running or is not configured to listen on port 80 (in which case this is not an error).

Please complete the following steps to complete the installation...

Now i know i probably should understand the steps but i couldn't find half the things it asked for me to do and i am just plain tired of spending time trying to figure out what it means and how to fix it. Any help would be greeeaaaaatttly appreciated.

Thanks in advance and hope to hear from you soon.
