Thanks for your suggestions Adam. I dont have any servers I administer, except my own dev servers. I resell space on servers that are running perfectly well and are adminstered by someone else. They are running on CFMX6.1. I am now trying to learn about CF7 so I stay up to date, and help decide if we move our servers over to CF7. At the moment, the answer's a resounding NO, because if it doesnt go perfectly, there will be no official help (i wouldn't be buying from Australia because it's not installed in Australia) and if I try to use the principal help, herre on Cf-Talk i'll be criticised by the members of the list for daring to seek help here.
Nope. This is a standard WinXPPro/SP2 installation with all the updates. (I always let Microsoft apps pick their own defaults too) The folder structure isnt laid out like that at all. Remember I just allowed the install routine to have all its defaults. The install routine made up its own mind about how to install. (I learned years ago not to try to change default settings on a new product) I have C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\lib\wsconfig but no numbered folders at all. In that swconfig folder is only the file jrunwin32.dll have no jrun folders. IIS won't allow me to add mappings to extensions. The OK button is not enabled.
