Peter, you mean *CF12* is in prerelease (not CF11, which has been out for over a year). And Peter you say “no joy getting CF10 to work with Win10”. What problem have you had? I upgraded a dev machine running CF11 (with IIS) to Windows 10, and I have seen no problem.
Mike, as for your efforts, you don’t say what version of CF you’re installing (only that you’re doing it on Windows 10, which to be clear is not formally supported yet by Adobe). I assume it’s CF10 or 11, since you refer to moving from CF9. Here’s a more pressing question: are you trying to install CF10 or 11 on the same machine that was running CF9? If so, and if it had been running CF with IIS, you would face challenges if you didn’t first remove the web server connector for IIS. But since you say you were using Apache, you may want to do that also (running the CF9 web server config tool). You also don’t say what the version of Windows (and IIS) was that you are moving from. It might be significant. Was it Windows 2003? Windows 7 or 2008? Windows 8 or 2012? Again, it could be significant to know if you are moving from one machine to another, or upgrading a machine in place (where CF had run before). Now, you say later that you tried it and had problems. When you say you ran the web server config tool, is this after you had upgraded CF, or before? You refer to it as the “jrun” tool, so it sounds like the CF9 one. Was that in the hopes of removing the old connector? Do you still have CF9 installed? And running? If not, that could be why it’s hanging up. Then you talk about uninstalling/reinstalling CF. Again, was that 9 or 10/11? If time is of the essence and you don’t want to wait for back and forth (across timezones and datelines), I’ll note that if you wanted to have some direct help resolving this (remotely), I could help. See the consulting page at carehart.org for more info on rates, approach (no need to open firewall or grant me an account on your server), satisfaction guarantee, and more. Now, to folks who may get cranky at that “sales pitch”, please note that I have first offered AMPLE and substantive info above to try to help Mike here for free. I only point out the other option if it may be helpful for him, or anyone who finds themselves in a jam with a CF server troubleshooting problem. That’s all I do, all day, as an independent consultant, serving several different folks each week. But I do love to help for free on lists like this, forums, and so on, when I can. /charlie From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:cfaussie@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Peter Tilbrook Sent: Saturday, August 08, 2015 8:11 AM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [cfaussie] CF and Windows 10 and IIS http://blogs.coldfusion.com/post.cfm/configuring-connectors-manually-for-iis-10 Have not tried this yet but hope it helps as so far no joy getting CF10 to work with Win10.

( I'm doing the first upgrade on a laptop I dont use much, so if anything goes pear-shaped it's no big deal. ) Can anyone point me to any resources for learning about the Win10 version of IIS (or any version if it comes to that - my knowledge of IIS is pretty basic) And how do I connect CF (I have CF9 Enterprise installed) to IIS instead of the Apache I've been using? DO i have to uninstall and reinstall CF9? -- Cheers Mike Kear -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
