One instance of IIS can be configured for one CFMX server only. If you have, for example, Windows Professional or Server Edition, then IIS can have multiple instances, each configured for a different domain, IP, or port.
You can create a new instance of IIS for testing purposes that listens to the same domain or IP, but on a different port. Then IIS instance 1 can be connected to CFMX 6.x server, and IIS instance 2 can be connected to CFMX 7 server at the same time. These do not conflict. Use $CF_HOME\bin\wsconfig.exe (or java -jar $CF_HOME\runime\lib\wsconfig.jar) to launch the wsconfig GUI (Web Server CONFIGurator). From there you can configure IIS for the appropriate CFMX server. For CFMX 7 use only the wsconfig.exe under CFusionMX7/bin, and for CFMX 6.x use only the wsconfig.exe in CFusionMX/bin. Each version of ColdFusion comes with its own wsconfig. Do not attempt to cross them. Alternatively, you can choose to install CFMX 7 without choosing to configure IIS. Then CFMX 7 will run on its built-in webserver, which will be either 8500 or 8501 in most cases. -Steven Erat Michel Deloux wrote: >Thanks Will.
