Actually, you can have multiple virtual servers on XP. After much looking and research I came across iisadmin, which allows you to access the built in but basically hidden multi homing capabilities of XP (and Win 2k).

hmmmm the original seems to have disappeared. There may be copies floating around, but it works and is very useful.

Aaron,

It sounds like you need point your IIS webroot one level further down (to
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\appname) so as to have the same setup as your production
server.  Our production servers never have more than one application under
the one virtual server, so the issue of having the app name in the path
never arises, but it does mean on IIS 5/XP (which doesn't support multiple
virtual servers) you have to reconfigure the web root every time you want to
work on a different app.

Subject: [CFCDEV] Help with Component Path/Package


On my local windows machine running XP Pro and IIS 5 I specify the
component path like so:

createObject("component","appname.com.user.user").init();

But on my remote server running Windows 2000 Server and IIS 5 I have
to specify the component path like so:

createObject("component","com.user.user").init();

This is a huge problem because it requires that I change the
path/package name on every object invocation and within every object
that returns a full qualified path and object name as the return type
or accepts an argument with the path and object name as the type.

Just to let you know, my webroot locally is C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ (app
path as C:\Inetpub\wwwroot) and my webroot remotely seems to be
something like D:\home\ (app path D:\home\appname).

What is the answer to this?
