The two issues that we encountered, after getting .NET 2.0 installed and setting IIS to 32-bit were:
1) The CF install changed the IUSR permissions to the wwwroot folder to remove read/execute. Why is that necessary? I understand the explicit deny write, but the anonymous account must have read to do anything. 2) The install did not give the W3WP process account (in this case, Network Service, the default) read/execute permission to the location of the CF files, which contains the wildcard ISAPI extension, necessary for the execution of CF. This resulted in a 401.3- ACL denied problem until we fixed it. This is a big oversight in my opinion. - Matt Small >> We are currently working with .NET 2.0 and CF8 running on IIS >> 6.0 in 32-bit mode on a 2003 Windows 64-bit server.
