Hi Ben,
Awesome. Glad to hear that it worked out good!
Couple notes:
1) Yes, I'm severely late on the 1.3 release. I've caught up on some
things this week though so I'm really hoping to wrap up the latest
installers this next week. No promises, but I will definitely try.
2) There's a small issue with the default document setup that has to do
with session state. Basically, session state is not maintained between
the default document and cfm-specific pages. For example, if you hit the
default document and then went to "aboutus.cfm", the aboutus.cfm file
would get issued a new session. The fix for this is to update the
uriworkermap.properties file and add a mapping that looks something like
this:
/=openbdlb
This will map the default document the same way normal cfm's are mapped,
and session state will be consistent across default documents and direct
CFM's alike.
3) The change above, as well as distinct 32-bit and 64-bit windows
support (via bit-specific installers, like the linux 64 and 32-bit ones)
will be available in the next installer release.
Warm regards,
Jordan Michaels

Hey Everyone!
So, I'm finially moving up in the world and heading to SBS 2008. I
know you Linux guys will say whatever, but it's a big/exciting move
for me! (It has been a very long road too.)
In getting OpenBD setup and connected to IIS 7 I ran into a few
hiccups and figured I would pass on my information. I will get
working on a Wiki Post soon.
1) The installer is FANTASTIC! Thanks Jordan! Nothing like having
life a little bit easier at least in one step. I assume that 1.3
version is coming shortly?
2) The default connector that comes with the installer doesn't work
(in this case). If you are on a 32-bit 2008 install, it should be
fine. However SBS 2008 is 64-bit. On my 64-bit Windows 7 you can fix
this by setting Enable 32-bit Applications to True under the
Applicaiton Pool your website is using inside of Advanced Settings.
With SBS 2008 it has Exchange 2007 installed and somewhere along the
lines this is causing issues. If you set any Applicaiton Pool to
Enable 32-bit Applicaitons, that Pool will fall upon request. This
can be corrected using the 1.2.30 version of the connector for Windows
64 available here:
http://download.filehat.com/apache/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/win64/jk-1.2.30/amd64/
What I did is run the remove script inside the connector folder. Once
it was done, I modified the remove and connect bat files to point to
the new dll and also copied the .properties file and modified it to
point to the new dll. Then I ran the connect bat and BINGO IT WORKED!
3) Follow Jordan's directions on the default document and that will
make it work correctly. It is found under the thread of IIS7 CFML
default document (Tomcat isapi_redirect) on this list. The link I
used to get to it is:

Thanks for all the help you guys give! It is GREAT!!!!!
Ben
