Thanks Dave. Do you ever get any work done? You spend a LOT of time here helping people out - and it's appreciated, I can assure you!
I have installed using the multi server options. I can run both administrators and see the settings for both CF7 and CF8, so i know the servers themselves are going fine. It's only the web servers that are the issue now. I can't use http://localhost:8501 because i have 40-odd web sites they're all set up as virtual sites, and are running with exactly the same code as on the production servers. For example, the first site i have to use under CF8, because we want to use some of the new features, is http://dev.newwaves. Which is to be found on my hdd at C:\sites\Customers\NewWaves\NewWaves.com.au\site\web The next CF8 site is to be http://cms.atalkingdog which will be at E:\sites\Mysites\atalkingdog.com.2008\site\web Do you see the problem with using a simple url like http://localhost:8501 for these? I have about 40 sites (and growing) set up on my dev server/laptop and in any one day i might work on 5 of them. Changing configuration all the time is a pain in the .. well its annoying. That's why i used Apache - because it allows lots of virtual sites. I guess I can change and only have one CF server working at a time. Have a batch file to stop CF7 and start CF8 or the reverse. If i did that, would i only have to just stop the services for one and start the other? or is there more that i'd have to do to switch between one and the other?
