It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

You did not mention what version of ColdFusion you are on or what OS version you are running. That might help.

I was able to find this post about that error - ACF8 - THE CRON SERVICE IS NOT AVAILABLE.

Basically it states:

This happens because the neo-cron.xml file in /WEB-INF/cfusion/lib has been corrupted. You can replace it with the neo-cron.bk file however in my case that file is always corrupted as well.

And they go on to supply the text for a new file if needed. Maybe that will help you.
