Yes, what you say is correct...I decided to try Apache because of the limitations of IIS on XP. That would give me a workstation capable of multiple virtual servers.
The other option I considered was putting CF7 on a Windows 2003 Server and testing from there. I'd have to buy Windows 2003 ( I could use Windows 2000 Server, but it'd be better to use what I'd want to use in production), but at least I could use multiple virtual servers and be up and running...(probably) Rick -----Original Message----- From: Dave Watts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 19, 2006 3:47 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Can't open CF7 Administrator > The trouble I've had just getting CF and Apache running together shows > why I think, at this point, IIS might be preferable.

I thought the reason you were using Apache was so that you could run multiple virtual servers on your Windows XP machine. If you're using Windows Server 2003, I would generally recommend that you go ahead and use IIS 6. There are some features that Apache has, that IIS doesn't, like mod_rewrite, but there are generally workarounds, etc. Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ Fig Leaf Software provides the highest caliber vendor-authorized instruction at our training centers in Washington DC, Atlanta, Chicago, Baltimore, Northern Virginia, or on-site at your location.
