Creating new project...won't let me

I have one project now and it works. I go to add a new project and not use default workspace and I get "The project already exists in c:\xxxxxx folder" and won't let me go further. All my sites are in C:\Users\user\Documents\websites in subfolders. they all use host names to browse http://site1 http://site2. WHich leads me to another question...I can't use the internal browser because i use the hosts. when i set up the server i have it point to localhost cause thats where the cfide is. when i browse it tries to go to localhost/sitesubdir. if i add a server for each host, then all the RDS stuff won't work cause cfide is not in those sites. should I just add cfide as a virtual dir in iis to each site?

Creating project for each site and adding server with different host name and make site as docroot for the server and binding this server with corresponding project, Should solve the issue your facing.
For creating virtual host of CFIDE in each site will make RDS to work.

Just create an Alias for /CFIDE in your web server and it will be available to all virtual hosts, then the RDS will work for every site.

Re: Creating new project...won't let me

I'm also having trouble creating new projects. I've been using cfeclipse and am trying to migrate to cfbuilder, so I had projects in the same directories.

Deleting the projects from cfeclipse doesn't help. Nor does using a different name. Anyone have any suggestions?

Re: Creating new project...won't let me

I had this same problem, and it was because of the pre-existance of the .project file. Once I renamed my old .project file (to something like "old.project") which my old Eclipse/CFEclipse used to use, I was able to create my project... is that maybe you're problem too??

Hope that helps,
Chris

Re: Creating new project...won't let me

That was it, Chris. Thanks! I had to remember that I needed to show the hidden files on the mac to be able to see the .project files so I could delete them. Then I could recreate the projects needed.

Just an additional information. If you wish to work with an already existing project(folder which has a .project existing in it) then you can import it as well.
