Otherwise JRun will not start, and the connector will fail. This seems to be the problem that Mike is having - JRun can't be found on localhost when the reverse lookup is done - thus implying a dns configuration error. I'm not a dns guru by any means...so maybe someone on the list could possibly post or direct us to some documentation on checking his dns configuration. chris ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
Re: This is DEFINITELY a faulty download file and install routine.
Michael, Sorry to hear that it's still not working.

I really appreciate all the help you guys have given me, specially Chris Kief who did a remote session on my desktop yesterday, and Dave Watts who has suggest numerous things ... but none of it helps me connect CFMX to IIs. Here's what I'm up to now .. I have installed CFMX and can operate under the CFMX web server on port 8500. That's cool. But I can't get it to connect to IIs, and the fault is in the package I downloaded from Macromedia's site. Don't tell me different because I have seen it a dozen times now.

Frankly, the only reason I'm persisting with this is because I NEED to have ColdFusion. IF I was really evaluating this to see if ColdFusion would be a good technology for my company to use, I'd have dumped it ages ago. Surely an evaluation copy of a program should be the one that is the most trouble-free. There is no trouble shooting stuff in the docs, the whole assumption is that everything is going to work perfectly and no hint as to what you should do if it doesn't.

There are files for each different web server that CFMX can work with, I guess. Plus, wsconfig.jar is essentially a Java program, so it has a bunch of class files that contain the program instructions. I haven't used this technique to get CFMX to work with IIS, but I did do it for Apache 2.0.43 after applying CFMX Updater 2 on a test machine. Out of curiosity, have you applied any of the updaters? You might want to try applying Updater 2, then connecting to IIS.

Mike - please paste the rest of the log file from: C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\wsconfig.log As I stated last night in my email to the list, this is *NOT* an error. When you run wsconfig.exe for the first time, this file is extracted. On subsequent runs, it checks to see if the file has been extracted before, if it has, it prints out the message above and moves on to check for the existence of JRun on localhost. From what I saw last night, your actual error is in the log file right below what you quoted above...so let's see the entire contents of that log file :) You can even delete the entire wsconfig directory (C:\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\) if you wish! The connector will just create a new one for you along with jrunwin32.dll the next time it is run. So again, the quote above is *NOT* an error. It's completely normal behavior. However, jrun is actually running on my system. I don't know why because it didn't exist before the install of CFMX. Correct - a version of JRun is installed as part of CFMX.

Re: This is DEFINITELY a faulty download file and install routine.
This is an incredible display of community where Chris, and Dave draw upon their own expertise and take the time out of their busy schedules to help work out issues experiences by a fellow user. None of these guys are employees of the publisher, and are not getting paid for their help, but both have appeared, as evidenced by posts over the past couple of days shown their determination to stick with a very frustrated user, with a goal of helping him through his roadblock. While I , and probably several others have not experienced problems such as the one being worked through, it is really heart-warming to know that people like this are members of our chosen trade. The least I can do is to give kudos to both of you, I know the problem is not an insurmountable one, and that you will guide the user through it until it is finally resolved, and even beyond that, that he understands what is taking place on his system. He will be the better for it, and perhaps will make himself available in the future to return the favor. We all are gaining by this experience.
