Not sure what os that was -- and I think it may have actually been /com/ as a directory name... I've never seen a problem with Windows IIS using the domain name as the directory name -- it's a fairly common convention for hosting companies, often including www. so you'd see a directory with the client list like: store.MyPetShop.com store.ZetaFest.com www.MyPetShop.com www.ZetaFest.com etc... > -----Original Message----- > From: Tony Weeg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 10:10 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Weird Behavior > you cant get application.cfm to show results of cftags > in them, I know that. Yea you can. I use application.cfm to embed javascript libraries on the page with <cfoutput> > OK, this is going to sound weird, but I have a Win2K server running > IIS/CF5/SQL2K.

My best guess would be that you have 2 coppies of the x.com directory and the website in IIS is pointing to the wrong root directory ... that's what it sounds like anyway -- it would explain the <cfabort> in your application.cfm not firing and terminating the page without an application.cfm in the admin directory to get in the way.
