Hello all, I really hoping someone has an answer for this.

Current setup:
Windows 2003
IIS 6.0
CFMX 7 (patched to latest version)
~ 35 domains hosted on server

CFMX Admin is currently accessed via :8500 (which means I think it runs on its 
own self-contained web server)

Attempted to upgrade to CF8

Attempt 1: (stop CFMX 7 search server)
- install CF8 into default location C:/Coldfusion8
- use built in web server (so versions can co-exist), should be on port :8501
- upgrade log states ports 80 cannot reach the cfadmin, manually configure web 
connectors etc... (which I tried to no avail).

Attempt 2: (after uninstalling CF8, reboot)
- install CF into default location
- use IIS / upgrade all domains to use CF8
- install runs well (installed to default web site on IIS)
- prompt to run cfadmin
- results in page cannot be found. CF install has put the CFIDE directory at
D:/wwwroot/default/CFIDE, needs to be at D:/wwwroot/default/htdocs/CFIDE -- so 
I move it there. 
- access CFADMIN, continue installation migration of all settings. Everything 
runs fine.

- go to access ANY web domain(whether they are .cfm files or .html files) and 
get a windows generated user name / password prompt dialogue box. On EVERY 
DOMAIN.
- open IIS 6.0 and notice all domains have virtual directory to the incorrect 
location of CFIDE / fix / remove that
- pick a domain and remove all connections to CF8 (i.e. application 
configuration, remove wildcard application maps to CF8) site loads fine, no 
password prompt.
- check permissions on C:/ColdFusion8/ and mirror them to what CF7 had on the 
server. Nothing helps. Assign EVERYONE (all permissions) on that folder, all 
subfolders and files still get password prompt.

Move individual domains back to CF7, they work fine. (So now I have both 7 and 
8 services running (oh CF 8 services running as NETWORK SERVICE or LOCAL 
SERVICE -- both did nothing to fix password prompt issue)).

Im at a loss... this was supposed to be a simple upgrade? The issue seems to be 
whenever a site tries to access the C:/ColdFusion8/ folder access is denied. 
Even after assigning Everyone Full control! HELP HELP!!!

Regards,

Matts
