Re: CFMX 7 / Vista
Officially CF7 isn't supported on Vista (CF7 arrived nearly two years before Vista) and initially CF8 support was flaky (but so was Vista) - but now works a treat. Consider upgrading. CF7 is now old and superceded tech as far as ColdFusion goes. ~| ColdFusion is delivering applications solutions at at top companies around the world in government.

RE: CFMX 7 / Vista
That's timely and great information... thanks. I just bought a Vista machine and have been updating it. So, two related questions: 1. Does CF8 install cleanly on Vista or will these same instructions work for CF8? 2. Also, Vista does not support SQL Server2000 so I had to upgrade to 2005 (big pain). Does anyone have any experience connecting SQL Server2005 DBs to CF on Vista? That's where I was expecting issues... Robert B.

RE: CFMX 7 / Vista
Randy, This is what finally got my install of CFMX 7 and Vista to work together. http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=1&c atid=3&threadid=1257380&highlight_key=y&keyword1=vista -Aaron Wolfe -Original Message- From: Adkins, Randy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2007 4:56 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFMX 7 / Vista Has anyone able to get the CFMX 7 installer to work on Vista?

Re: CFMX 7 / Vista
Randy, It is possible, but it takes a bit of extra work. In order to get the installer itself to run, you have to right click on it and select 'Run as Administrator'. Then, once the installer does run, you will have JVM issues as the JVM that comes with Vista is newer than what CFMX 7 can handle. So, you will need to install JVM 1.4.2 and reconfigure CFMX to look there. In order to get the service and ISAPI mappings working, there are a couple of command line scripts you will have to run, again using the lower JVM version. I had an article in one of the last editions of CFDJ that talked about running CFMX 7 and CFMX 8 side by side and most of it applies for Vista as that is what I am running on as well.
