Dave and Andrew, I'm still mightily struggling with this configuration. In the documentation is says the following:
"If you are configuring IIS 7, before you proceed, ensure that you have the options IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility." I do. Then it says to run the Web Server Configuration Tool and add the host name and the server to configure. I did. Then it says to copy the CFIDE and cfdocs directories from cf_root/wwwroot to the web server root directory. Did that too. and to copy the applicationâs CFM pages from cf_root/wwwroot to the web server root directory. Done Then it says to do some verifications. To verify that the following file was created: cf_root/runtime/lib/wsconfig/jrun.dll It is. Then it wants me to verify that application mappings for .cfm, .cfml, .cfc, .cfswf, .cfr, .jsp, and .jws were added. This is not clear on how to accomplish. It says to right-click an IIS website and select Properties etc, etc, but it doesn't appear it's describing how to do this for IIS7. Any advice here? Then it wants virtual directories for each website and to verify that the JRunScripts directory in each of the websites points to the correct location and on and on. Is this really what you went through to create a 3-tiered environment? It just isn't very intuitive. Any help? Thanks, Dave > > The web server and app servers are indeed on separate boxes.
