RE: (OT) IIS 7 Wonkiness with BlogCFC and cgi.path_info
Glad you solved it, it will nearly always be tomcat as IIS just passes over the request. You will find a recent post RE a Railo/ tomcat fix for default documents on my blog too which might help in case u come across the same issue.

Re: (OT) IIS 7 Wonkiness with BlogCFC and cgi.path_info
Hmm. Both make use of cgi.path_info - although they do slightly different things with the data after. Question - if you make page.cfm a home page (like index.cfm and default.cfm etc) does it react differently?

Sounds like you have a similar problem to this http://russ.michaels.me.uk/index.cfm?mode=search The same solution may fix your CF problem as well.

(OT) IIS 7 Wonkiness with BlogCFC and cgi.path_info
I just moved my blog over to a new server (Winders 2008). So far all of it seems to be working correctly, except for one page, and I can't figure out what IIS is doing. I'm hoping someone here has run across this or has enough experience with IIS 7 to tell me where to look. For whatever reason, IIS seems to be ignoring the cgi.path_info for my "about" page and process it as a directory. So, for http://www.cfgears.com/page.cfm/About it's trying to find an About directory and throwing a 404 instead processing page.cfm with "About" as a cgi.path_info. The funny thing is, all of the other pages on the site use this exact same url format without any problems. For example, http://www.cfgears.com/index.cfm/CFML works correctly. The only difference in the 2 urls is that one calls index.cfm and the other calls page.cfm. All index.cfm calls work, and all page.cfm calls break. I know that page.cfm is there, I put in a Hey! at the top of it and you can pull it up in the url (http://www.cfgears.com/page.cfm), but http://www.cfgears.com/page.cfm/About still throws a 404. So, what gives? What is it about this page that IIS doesn't want to process cgi.path_info correctly? -- Thanks, Eric Cobb ECAR Technologies, LLC http://www.ecartech.com http://www.cfgears.com ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:339494 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
