Re: same URL if moving app to new CF instance ?
Thanks, all. Good ideas for testing.

You'll have to run the Web Server Configuration tool (wsconfig) to disconnect your IIS virtual server from the existing CF instance, and connect it to the new CF instance. Nothing else needs to change in IIS, including URLs. It's possible that you currently have your existing instance connected using the All web sites option with IIS, in which case you'll need to use wsconfig to delete that configuration and create individual connections for each IIS virtual server.

same URL if moving app to new CF instance ?
Is there any way an application can keep the same URL, when we move it to another ColdFusion instance on the same server? We need to separate one high-resource application out of the CF instance that runs all the other applications. We can create a new IIS Web Site, we can create a new CF instance ... but is there a way to keep the same URL? thank you, Chris ~| 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:355038 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: same URL if moving app to new CF instance ?
I don't think I'm understanding the question. You can configure your domains to point to whatever URL you want them to point to, assuming you have control of the domain and server(s) in question. I think a lot more info is required in order to answer the underlying question you seem to be having.

Re: same URL if moving app to new CF instance ?
What instance a website is using has nothing at all to do with the URL, so your url would not change. The instance your website is using is controlled by the handler mappings.

Re: same URL if moving app to new CF instance ?
Hi Russ, Matt, We have a number of applications running on one instance of CF9, coming through three IIS v6 Web Sites (host headers separate the requests which are to three different Fully Qualified Domain Names(FQDNs)). As I understand, with the Web Server Configuration Tool I'm mapping one or more IIS Web Sites to one and only one CF instance. So if we move the high-resource app from its current CF instance to a new instance, I need to do something so the IIS Web Site knows which CF instance to send the request. But if the IIS Web Site is mapped to only one CF instance, I can't do that. Our customer would like the URL (FQDN and directories) to remain the same. I feel like I'm missing something simple and basic ... hope I'm not over-thinking this! Feel free to page-slap me with a really helpful URL :-) thanks, Chris On Fri, Mar 15, 2013 at 5:46 PM, Russ Michaels r...@michaels.me.uk wrote: What instance a website is using has nothing at all to do with the URL, so your url would not change.
