supposed to show up?
Thanks for your help,

What is *.htm mapped to in IIS? I'm not in front of a Win2k3 machine
but I remember there being a wildcard mapping that CF used as well. It
sounds like to me that the CF mappings are still hanging around.
Make sure you backup the IIS metabase xml file...

SY> Michael
SY> has some examples of problems and
SY> solutions. I had the same thing happen to me when we upgraded. I bet the
SY> solution might be something like this:
SY> ODBC services do not start - This is an interesting error that comes up
once
SY> in a blue moon and probably has to do with a failure somewhere in the
SY> install. Basically, once you install and are about to go to the
migration
SY> tool, you find that you just can't log into the admin to finish your
SY> migration. The reason is that the ODBC services are not running. You try
to
SY> start them up and they fail. Why? Because there's an error in their
config
SY> files.
SY> The fix is rather easy. Do a search on the string "c:\program
files\merant"
SY> in the c:\cfusionmx\db directory (or whatever drive you've installed it
on).
SY> You'll find 3 files. Replace that string (c:\program files\merant) with
the
SY> string "c:\cfusionmx\db" (or whatever drive letter you have the
cfusionmx
SY> directory in). After replacing all of the instances in all 3 files,
start
SY> the services and finish migrating. Easy to do and only 3 people have
ever
SY> reported seeing it.
