Actually Jenny I was ONLY quoting your own statements BACK, so I did not
 make any assumptions, you may want to read back your own emails to avoid
contradictions like this.
A little friendly advice, If you want your business to be private and think
it is not anyone else's business what you do, then a good idea would be
don't post it on a public list, and certainly don't brag about it, otherwise
you are opening it up for discussion, that is after all the purpose of a
discussion list.
I realise some people don't have much money, but as the only thing I have
offered is free advice I don't think that is relevant to this topic as at no
point have I tried to sell anyone anything to anyone.
As for my needing more experience and age, LOL, I wont try to brag as you
did, but you may want to take your own advice about making assumptions
there. NUFF SAID!

RE: IIS Question

[Jenny Gavin-Wear]

Russ,

1. No, I do not believe that it is only possible for code to bring a server
down in a hosted environment, I never said that.
2. The bandwidth requirement I have matches my needs, thanks for asking.
3. I don't take holidays and I'm pretty much here 24/7 so my support to my
customers is _at_least_ as fast as yours.
4. I test my code on my own PC running CF.
5. I don't see that it's any of your business how I choose to run my
business.
6. I certainly don't see why I should qualify myself to you.

You make too many assumptions before asking questions about a persons
enviromnent and circumstances.

Russ, most of the time in CF-Talk I see you being a really helpful guy, but
I do wish you would stop to think a little before behaving so "poorly" - and
I'm being polite!

Maybe with a little more experience, even age, you'll be able to handle
yourself better.

Not everyone can afford what you are offering, did you stop to think about
that?

You have no idea how many sites I am running on my server or what the
traffic is like.  I do, I see great performance, my customers agree.

Not that it's any of your business, but I have all the "peering" I need to
run one server, thank you.

The original poster asked a very straight forward question, he didn't ask to
have his circumstances analyzed by you.

Jenny

RE: IIS Question

[Jenny Gavin-Wear]

Hi Russ,

With 30 years in the IT business and over 20 of them as an IT Manager I am
fully aware of the implications of server vulnerability.

A hosting environment is a very different scenario to a single developer
using a single server for testing and live applications.

Sure, in an ideal world we'd all love to run on dedicated and managed live
servers well apart from our test environment.

Having run with hosted, dedicated, managed servers for some years I have
found their up-time is no better than I am able to achieve with my own local
server which I manage.  (For what it's worth I have the tested stats to
prove that.)

Unless a dedicated server can be assured in a hosting enviromnent you are
sharing a server with god knows who.

As you know as a Host, you can't vet the quality of the developers using
your servers, or whoever else they might let "tinker" with their web sites.

RE: IIS Question

[Eric Roberts]

The physical directory location is listed in the configuration.  You can
have multiple directories from multiple drives listed in a web site.  When
you point to a directory that is outside of the root, you are creating
virtual directories (aka aliases in Apache), so yes, you can have files in
multiple locations on multiple drives.

Hi All -

I have a IIS/coldfusion question. I am working with a client, who has both
production and development stuff on the same machine. He has two drives, C
and E. C drive has development files and E drive has production. The IIS
configuration points to E drive.


C drive the has the following structure:

C:/
 - Coldfusion 9
 - Inetpub
   - coldfusion files

E:/
 - Web
- coldfusion files

But confused if IIS can point to two different drives? How to find out which
drive the IIS point out to.. I hope I am not vague with my question

Thanks a lot.

Russ,

I agree with you 100% but in Jenny's defense perhaps she meant "this" code
rather than code in general. I have a few sites that are so simple I could
see them in that light I suppose. Still as best practice I totally agree
with you. In fact, such code is what keeps our business growing (ha).

RE: IIS Question

[Jenny Gavin-Wear]

Hi Russ,

See your point, but the actual likely hood of taking down a server with code
is pretty small.

You can always set up IIS/CF on your local PC anyway and avoid the problem.
The only issue then is the database, as you are unlikely to be running a
server o/s on your pc, assuming the database requires a server o/s - I'm
using MS SQL, for example.

But yes, separate everything out.  2 web sites in IIS, 2 databases, 2 CF DB
connections, etc with very clear and regulated naming conventions.

A single IIS server can have many IIS sites, or virtual servers. These
can point to wherever you want them to point. Presumably, this machine
has at least two IIS sites. You can view the list of sites in the IIS
management console, and can right-click on each as Brian mentioned to
see the filesystem location where each points.

Right click the web site in IIS and click on click on the home directory path. 
This will tell you where IIS is looking on a per site basis.

Hope this helps.

Re: IIS Question

[Charlie Stell]

You'd likely want to defined two iis sites, one for dev and one for prod.

For each site, the home directory should be the respective code base for each, 
and you'd want to add a virtual directory pointing to cfide on each. The 
differing drives should be no problem.

Hope that helps!

Just so that all domains and variations for that domain are sent to

We will often but the .co.uk and .net domains but only market the

RE: IIS Question...

[Dawson, Michael]

onRequestStart appears to be the best place for this code.

301 would be appropriate if that is what you want.  Will this be a
permanent or temporary redirect?

Also, the additional DNS entry suggestions may be a better solution, if
that is an option for you.

RE: IIS Question...

[Eric Roberts]

I think that is more of a dns issue than an IIS one.  You should have a DNS
entry that says (I forget the exact verbage) to the effect of www and have
that point to @ (which should be assigned to mydomain.com or something to
that effect. This is how I have mine set up...

(CNAME)www  @ 
(CNAME)ftp  @

@ points to the ip of my server(via the A Record)...
(courtesy of the godaddy dns manager ;-) )

Re: Cheesy IIS question

Is Linux/Apache not an option?  I don't know how familiar you are with 
it, but it's not *that* difficult to set up a webserver from scratch, 
especially with a friendly installer like SuSE or Mandrake, and you 
won't be restricted on how you use your machine.

Windows Pro is limited to only handle 10 TCP/IP connections at a 
time. That would give this error to some requests, and if that 
request is for an image would result in the behaviour you are 
experiencing.

yup.  He needs to be using the server edition.  Actually, can't he just
install Apache for windows?  Does CFMX have the connector for the windows

Would you belive it?  As a lark, I installed the cfconnector from Deerfield

I have a development instance of a site that's running under a Developer

morning and though the initial server start seemed to take longer than
MX Updater 3, the response time is now considerably faster - it's really
very impressive.  I'm looking forward to digging into the new stuff tonight.

Re: Cheesy IIS question

[Marlon Moyer]

Since you're on Win2K pro, I'm assuming you have the 1 site version of IIS, 
if that's the case and you have more than 1 site (ie, you access the site 
by something like 127.0.0.1/cfdayton/) it might be an issue of absolute 
image paths, meaning that your image paths look like this: 
"/images/spacer.gif".  With the single site version of IIS, it will look in 
the "127.0.0.1/images" directory instead of "127.0.0.1/cfdayton/images" 
directory.


You'll need to recode with relative links in order to work correctly from 
this machine.

I don't think that would help with the number of concurrent 
TCP/IP connections. You might have more luck with something like 
timing them out faster (page 45)

Re: Cheesy IIS question

I have a development instance of a site that's running under a Developer 
License of MX using the internal server.  I upgraded it to 6.1 this 
morning and though the initial server start seemed to take longer than 
MX Updater 3, the response time is now considerably faster - it's really 
very impressive.  I'm looking forward to digging into the new stuff tonight.

Is Linux/Apache not an option?  I don't know how familiar you are with
it, but it's not *that* difficult to set up a webserver from scratch,
especially with a friendly installer like SuSE or Mandrake, and you
won't be restricted on how you use your machine.

yup.  He needs to be using the server edition.  Actually, can't he just install Apache

Windows Pro is limited to only handle 10 TCP/IP connections at a
time. That would give this error to some requests, and if that
request is for an image would result in the behaviour you are
experiencing.

RE: (OT) IIS Question for Local Server and Host file

[Neil Giarratana]

One thing to watch out for is if you're running Windows 2000 Professional w/
IIS (or is it still called PWS?).  They restrict the workstation versions to
only run a single web site.  If you want to do multiple websites on that
machine, you're better off installing apache (www.apache.org).

Subject: (OT) IIS Question for Local Server and Host file


Is it possible set up my local IIS server to do something like this:

http://somealias/

And send that request to a specified sub folder on my server.  

I've added this line to my "hosts" file:

127.0.0.1   somealias

But all that does is send me to the same page as "localhost"

I want to make it so that the server treats "somealias" as the root (thereby
getting the same file path behavior as I'll get on the production server).

I've tried mucking about with the IIS admin and haven't found the solution
there yet either.

You need to do both.  Create the entries your hosts file, and also configure
it correctly in IIS.  In IIS you'll need to create multiple web sites to do
this.

So if your hosts file had:

127.0.0.1  WebSite1
127.0.0.1  WebSite2

and you wanted the names to resolve to two different web sites (mapped to
different directories), create two web sites in IIS.  Then in the MMC, under
the IIS web site properties | Web Site Identification | IP Address |
Advanced, edit any identities (bindings) without a Host Header Name and
enter the appropriate name.  The identities should end looking something
like:

First web site:
127.0.0.1 80 WebSite1

Second web site:
127.0.0.1 80 WebSite2

Re: (OT) IIS Question for Local Server and Host file

[Neil H.]

Maybe a host header and that host file combined will get it working?

(OT) IIS Question for Local Server and Host file

[Owens, Howard]

Is it possible set up my local IIS server to do something like this:

http://somealias/

And send that request to a specified sub folder on my server.  

I've added this line to my "hosts" file:

127.0.0.1   somealias

But all that does is send me to the same page as "localhost"

I want to make it so that the server treats "somealias" as the root (thereby
getting the same file path behavior as I'll get on the production server).

I've tried mucking about with the IIS admin and haven't found the solution
there yet either.

H.

When you click on the link, where does it go to?

Putting a / before the page in the link will send it one level down.

So if your in servername/page/index.cfm and you click on a link that
goes to /etc.cfm it will send you to servername/etc.cfm

Thanks all on the list,  your emails have helped a lot in learning CF.   


We have a very small shop and I'm trying to figure out how to upgrade 
IIS to 4 or 5.I thought this happened when we loaded SP6 on the NT40 
but when I go to IIS server manager help it tells me am running IIS 3.   
Also when I run the new lock down tool it tells me it won't run on this 
version of IIS.  Question is am I reading version number correctly in 
the IIS manager and if so how do you upgrade your IIS.   I have looked 
at MS site found all the patches just have not found the IIS server 
upgrades. 

I understand a lot people don't recommend IIS but it's what I've got to 
use. I would like to upgrade server because we have a couple people 
have FP sites that are having trouble so I would like to get server 
updated to latest IIS server and  FP extensions and patches.   
Coldfusion and Seagate stuff is running great.

Thanks for the help

I don't recommend against IIS but I do recommend against putting Front Page
customers and ColdFusion customers on the same box.  Front Page is for
amateurs, and amateurs should be separated from the people that know what
they're doing.

Get the NT Option Pack 4.0 and all the latest hotfixes and updates.

Install Option Pack 4 to get IIS 4.

Recommended installation sequence (from personal experience, don't know 
about official information on this):
NT Option Pack 4
NT SP6a
MDAC 2.6
NT Security Rollup Package (q299444i.exe)
IIS Security Rollup Package (Q301625i.exe)
CF 5 (and updates)

Yes, Apache NT is an operating system. It used to be known as Windows NT,
but the Apaches took over Redmond in retaliation for hundreds of years of
abuse. You will have to get rid of all Microsoft products prior to
installing it.

And, ColdFusion recommends PWS95... which by the way will show an error with
MTS.  You have to get the MTS upgrade as well as PWS95.  Both are available at
the download center at Microsoft.com.

Hai

I am Biju

Yes, MS IIS is a part of WindowsNT operating System.

I don't think you'll be able to work with MS IIS in Windows 98 environment. Instead, 
you can use MS Personal Web Server. You can install MS PWS from Windows 98 CD.

Please refer to www.microsoft.com for more info.

IIS4 comes with NT4 Option Pack, it is not part of Windows98. You cannot 
run windows98 as a server, unless your just using it for local development 
of course, in which case you can use PWS (Personal Web Server) but it's a 
bit crap, give O'Reily Webserver Pro a try.

RE: (maybe) OT: IIS Question

[Zachary Bedell]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

(Apologies if this is a repeat.  I've been out of town all weekend &
still wading thru the mail...)

IE is doing exactly what its supposed to by imposing those
limitations.  According to the HTTP/1.1 spec (RFC2616 if you're
interested) browsers are supposed to limit themselves to two
connections when talking to HTTP/1.1 hosts and to four connections
when talking to a HTTP/1.0 or lower host.

Netscape has never been well known for adhering to any acceptable
practice, so it wouldn't surprise me if it violates that requirement
of the RFC...

You can override IE's default by messing with the registry.  By doing
that, you're intentionally breaking your browser's compliance with
the RFC, so beware...  This will also affect the performance of the
pre-version 4.5 CFHTTP tag since it uses the same WinINet.dll that IE
does for net access (there...  brought this back on topic, right? ;-)

For info on changing the connection limits, check out MS KB article
Q183110:

As far as I know, IIS 4 server does NOT implement those restrictions
- -- only the clients enforce it.  

Best regards,

RE: (maybe) OT: IIS Question

[David Sparkman]

This is a limit based on HTTP 1.1 Protocol. The HTTP 1.1 specification
(RFC2068) specifies only two connections to the server at a time. HTTP 1.0
has no limitation, however most Browser vendors have put in place a self
imposed limit of only 4 connections. There is a tweak that you can make to
your registry to allow more connections under IE.

Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings
and add or modify the following keys :

MaxConnectionsPerServer
MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server

They are both of type REG_DWORD.
Simply specify the number that you would like to allow on your machine.

Please note that this will affect all applications that use Microsoft's HTTP
standard internet API.

Thanks,
David Sparkman

If my guess is correct you are using IE as your browser? I say that because
I am using IE 5.x and it imposes that limitation on me no matter where I'm
downloading from, even if it is a mix of sites. I don't remember ever having
this occur with NS.

I am suspicious that our NT 4.0/IIS 4.0 server is imposing an artificial
limit of 4 downloads at a time.  In other words, at a given moment, only 4
files can be downloaded.  Any beyond that hang until one of those 4 finish,
then the next ones start.

I have no clue what could cause this.  I DO NOT have bandwidth limitation
turned on in the IIS software for the site in question or for that computer.
In general the traffic for the site is very lite.
