There was a discussion in OpenBD list about the application naming in ColdBox which can cause problems etc.
Have you already seen it?

Yes, BD doesn't like dashes or spaces. Again, the naming of the Application.cfc is given with a default of a hash that does not use spaces or dashes. The cfthreads also do not use dashes or spaces, this was done for BD capabilities in 2.5. So they should hold true.
So far, I haven't run into any issues, apart from the server.coldfusion.productversion fix that was committed.

I have tried Coldbox on Open BlueDragon and it takes like 3 minutes to load and once it loads the sample files, it is just a blank screen....No errors or anything.

Sorry to say but coldbox no longer works on Open Bd (OBD 1.3/Tomcat). Everything seems broken in CB 3.0 (M6.2-318-GENESIS-14:14).
