Hi -

I have an application that has been working fine for over a year and now 
anything that references Virtual Directories no longer functions.  Here are the 
details:

Coldfusion is running on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise.
Using IIS6 for the web server on the same box.
I have several virtual directories setup that reference files on another server 
on the same network.

What I did to break things... I installed Apache (the latest release) along 
with PHP - but I set Apache up to listen on a different port (8080). Suddently 
any part of my code that tries to reference a file that is found through a 
virtual directory generates the following error:

An error occurred when performing a file operation exists on file 
/serverpdfs/130kPDFs/137485.pdf.
The cause of this exception was: org.apache.commons.vfs.FileSystemException: 
Could not determine the type of file 
"http://www.mybp-graphics.com/serverpdfs/130kPDFs/137485.pdf";..

Here's the actual code that generated that error:

<cfset filename = "http://www.mybp-graphics.com/serverpdfs/130kPDFs\137485.pdf";>

     
     then within a table...
     <cfif FileExists("#filename#")>
    <td>Yes File</td>
    <cfelse>
    <td>No file</td>
    </cfif>

The "serverpdfs" is the virtual directory inside the website 
"mybp-graphics.com". If I look in IIS the directory is there, I can see all the 
files in it - it seems to be working fine.

I first experienced the problem when we tried to open a PDF for viewing by 
using <CFCONTENT> - the same type error occurs. 

What is especially suspicious is that the exception was was 
"org.apache.commons.cfs.FileSystemException" - This error still persists even 
though I have done the following:

1.  Completely de-installed Apache and hid the PHP directory.
2.  Re-installed ColdFusion from scratch.

Any direction would be greatly appreciated - this error is affecting multiple 
modules of a website that is used constantly by both our customers and our 
internal employees.

Thanks

Curt
