I've just rebuilt my development environment onto a new computer. It is a
windows XP box. I downloaded and installed the latest CF 6.1 server, this
installation set up the ColdFusion built-in web-server since I did not yet
have another installed. I then installed IIS 5.1 from my windows XP CD. I
ran the web services connecter program in the ColdFusion directory. All
this worked well and I can run Cold fusion templates from either localhost
(IIS) or localhost:8500 (CF). But, the ColdFusion webroot is acting as the
default for ColdFusion templates, but not for html.. If I enter an ULR such
as (http://localhost/index.cfm or http://localhost:80/index.cfm) into my
browser, it first looks in the ColdFusion webroot (C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot), if
a file with the specified name exists there it is used. If a file does not
exist in the ColdFusion webroot then the IIS webroot (C:\Inetpub\wwwroot) is
checked and the correct file is served up.
This is undesirable behavior, I would rather only the webroot I specify by
port be checked? If that is not desirable, I would at least like the IIS
webroot to be the default root that is checked first. How do I control this
behavior? I seem to valley recall editing a XML file somewhere in
ColdFusion, but never really understanding what I was doing.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You.
