Larry: This is a repost I sent on this issue on June 6. It will be pertinent, in my opinion, if you have IIS. "Since I haven't seen anyone respond to your query I'll venture my opinion, BUT BEWARE - I'm a newbie, (so take what I say with a word of caution). When I was going through an installation of IIS for the first time - a couple of weeks ago - I found out that IIS may overwrite existing files without prompting. Therefore, a reinstall or repair of the operating system (Windows NT 4.0 for me) was necessary for me and a reinstall of CF was also necessary. "While I was going through all the fiascoes with installing/reinstalling etc. CF and IIS I had to go through quite a lot of trouble to get things up and working correctly. So I pass this URL (below) onto you because it took me a long time to figure this installation stuff out. I spent almost an entire week trying to get IIS to work with ColdFusion Studio and Server (4.5.1). The problem was Microsoft's STRICT procedures to correctly implement IIS. After spending hours (on Microsoft's web site and other places) I finally found the answer I was looking for.
