Re: considering two options for changing hosting
I use Newtek and they are pretty good. However I've tried to run CF and Wordpress on the same Windows server with Newtek and Wordpress was super slow. They kept telling me it's a known issue and there's nothing they could do about it. I ended up splitting onto two different servers. It's shared hosting so the tech staff is only so supportive of edge case issues like this.

500 error/Permission issue with IIS 7
I have been down the rabbit hole with this all day and have not been able to figure this out. I have been all over The Google with no love. We followed the CF 11 lockdown guide and got everything working fine for 2 domains/applications. We went to set up a third domain that uses subdirectories as the root directory for seperate applications and we get a 500 error (details below) when we hit a subdirectory like so: http://www.mydomain.com/somedir/ But if I add index.cfm to the URL like below everything works fine. http://www.mydomain.com/somedir/index.cfm And, yes, the default document is set to index.cfm and the permissions for all the sub directories are identical to the domains what work (as per the lockdown guide). IIS error details Module IsapiModule Notification ExecuteRequestHandler Handler cfmHandler Error Code 0x80004005 Anyone have an idea how to remedy this situation? As always, many TIA, G! *Gerald Anthony Guido* Nullius in verba http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nullius_in_verba -- Horace learn.geraldguido.com Twitter https://twitter.com/CozmoTrouble Facebook https://www.facebook.com/gerald.guido.9 ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:360312 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

I just know that can be a hassle and you could wind up in the same place as you are today. So some recommendations. - Get your provider to move the site to another server. Even if it's temporary to see if the server is the issue. Maybe they can just provide another temp account for free. This way the db can stay where it is and just gave to move the files. - Put another simple php app on your site. This would help narrow down php on the server or your php instance (depending on their config) as the issue. - Disable your Wordpress plugins one by one to see if one is at fault. I know you stated these aren't the issue, but worth trying. - Check web logs to see if someone is leeching your Wordpress content and beating up your site. - Use a Wordpress caching plugin, you should do this anyway as Wordpress usually runs like doodie without one anyway. - Run the site through something like pingdom.com/tools, which will break down the load times and from where. Could be a plugin loading content from another site that is the issue and this would show it. - Check the html source, possible that your Wordpress site is compromised and there is some hidden content or something in the page causing a slow down. If you wanted to share the site, I'm sure some people on the list might be able to offer some insight.
