Or, you can use both CF 5 and CF MX through IIS at the same time! I figured out a way to do this and posted it to cf-talk yesterday. Here it is: When you install CF MX on an IIS 5 machine, it'll give you an option to configure an IIS connector, so that you can run CF MX requests through IIS. However, if you're still running CF 5, you won't have that option unless you uninstall CF 5 first. If you're running IIS and CF 5 on your development workstation, like I am, and you want to keep running CF 5 AND use CF MX with IIS instead of with the standalone server, there's a simple workaround. First, you'll need more than one IIS virtual server. You can bind CF 5 or CF MX to an individual virtual server, but not both. Then, just go ahead and install CF MX. As noted, you won't see an option to use it with IIS. Just pick "standalone". After the install, go to the command line and run this all on one line (assuming you've installed CF MX to your C drive): c:/cfusionmx/runtime/jre/bin/java -cp c:/cfusionmx/runtime/lib -jar c:/cfusionmx/runtime/lib/wsconfig.jar -ws IIS -site "5" -map cfm,.cfc,.cfml,.jsp -v The "5" in the above line refers to the specific IIS virtual server with which you want to use CF MX. If you wanted to make the CF MX IIS connector globally available, you'd put "0" there. When you run this, you should get lots of output which should essentially say "ok, that worked". Then, you'll need to go into the IIS management console and add the ISAPI filter to the specific virtual server. The file path for the filter will be: c:\CfusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1\jrun.dll Enjoy!
