Well, no, I did not. There are couple points to consider (for any interested in 
his question and my answer).

First, note that I had said that mine was a machine that was already running 
CF11, on Windows 8.1, which I upgraded to Windows 10. I was only saying (all 
along) that it’s definitely not that CF10 “can’t run on Windows 10”, as some 
were saying (perhaps just being lose with what they meant).

Second, there may well be issues either with the connectors, for some people, 
which I acknowledged the first day, saying:

“And if you visit the Adobe blog post (which Peter pointed to), there’s a 
discussion of that (which I initiated last night). The post is 
http://blogs.coldfusion.com/post.cfm/configuring-connectors-manually-for-iis-10)
 where they offer the steps for how to get an aspect of CF 10/11 to work with 
IIS on Windows 10 (which I did NOT need to do to get CF 11 running ok on 
Windows 10).”


Third, andn to that, someone may say, “ok, but that’s only if you have things 
configured BEFORE you update to Windows 10. You can’t update the connectors 
once RUNNING Windows 10, can you?”

Well the answer (just tested) is “yes I can”. That also is why I said, in other 
notes in this thread, that while that Adobe forum post seems to be needed for 
SOME people running on Windows 10, it was not needed for me.

So fourth, maybe there is something where if you INSTALL CF10 or 11 on Windows 
10 and THEN try to run the wsconfig tool, some may have a problem. Again, I 
already had CF11 installed when I updated from Windows 8.1 to Windows 11.

HTH.

Charlie,

 

How did you get past the connectors not supporting Windows 10? I am guessing 
you did that manually then.

Mike, I’m catching up on the past several messages from my overnight. So bummer 
about what’s happened. (And let me be clear: I had only said I had run my CF11 
on Windows 10, not CF9. The rest of my earlier thoughts were focused on why 
CF9.0 would not work by default with IIS7.)

So as for your challenge, one of Andrew’s ideas is interesting, about having 
Win7 first, to do the install of CF9, and THEN upgrading Windows. But that’s a 
hassle, of course, as you have already upgraded Windows. And using VM’s is 
certainly another way to go, but again may be overkill for your immediate need.

So back to the root cause problem, Andrew and Paul propose that it could be 
that CF9 would not install on Windows 8, let alone 10. I’d think if that was 
so, we’d have heard about that from others for the past couple of years, but I 
have not (but it may be I have just missed the news). 

I wonder if there may be something else about your setup that’s unique. I can’t 
think of an alternative off the top of my head. I’d like to try running that 
902 installer on my own Win 8.1 (and 10) setup, but can’t do that for another 
couple of hours. If anyone else shares any experience/confirmation (past or 
present), it could be interesting to hear.

I’m just not so ready to give up on your hope yet. :-)
