Below is an easy step-by-step configuration approach for windows web server configuration. Applicable for IIS, Apache and iPlanet. Please ignore steps that do not apply.
1) Stop your web server. 2) Please uninstall CFMX, 3) Delete any registry key for HKLM\Software\Macromedia\ColdFusion, 4) Delete the <CFusionMX_installdir> and rename the CFIDE and CFDOCS from your IIS webroot. 5) Reboot your machine. 6) On reinstalling CFMX, please use the stand alone webserver that came with CFMX. 7) Try to access the CFMX Administrator on port 8500. 8) From your <CFusionMX>\Bin\Connectors folder, double click on the particular connector you wish to work with CFMX. If you receive an error stating that Jrun is not started, please close the DOS window and launch C:\CFusionMX\Bin\cfstart.bat then launch the <web>_connector.bat again. 9) A directory C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1, should have been created with jrun.dll for IIS, mod_jrun.so for Apache and jrun_nsapi35.dll inside the 1 directory. 10) Please verify from your CF documentation on what entries should have been created/inserted to Apache and Netscape conf files. For IIS, there might be a need to Map .cfm to C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1\jrun.dll in your IIS console. To apply the instruction, please go to START > SETTINGS > CONTROL PANEL > ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS > INTERNET SERVICES MANAGER. Double click on the computer icon/name. Right click on the Default website, or onto the virtual site you need to define the mapping, and select properties. Click on the Home Directory tab and click on the Configuration button. This is where internet documents are mapped, by their extension, and this is where you will need to apply Step # 10. 11) If you did not delete or rename your old CFIDE and CFDOCS folders from your webroot, please rename/delete them now and copy the CFIDE and CFDOCS folders from <CFusionMX_installdir>\wwwroot to your webroot. 12) Try launching the CFMX Administrator using the port of your web server. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
