Urgent help required - CF8 install on IIS6 generates ACL error

2008-02-18 Thread Jason Thacker
NEWBIE WARNING! :)

I have been trying to install CF8 on a Windows 2003 box (which also contains 
20+ virtual servers). On my first attempt I asked that all sites be CF enabled. 
At the end of installation I received a 401.3 ACL error, not only when 
accessing the default admin pages, but also any of the other virtual servers 
(which had been working perfectly until then). The security configuration for 
these sites is Anonymous access only. The problem disappeared when I 
uninstalled CF. I have googled on this problem and have seen a variety of 
advice on how to solve it.

One is to enable Windows Integrated Authentication. Another is to check that 
IUSR_machine name has been explicitly defined as having access permission to 
the folders/files in question. 

As the virtual servers *have* to stay online (another 401.3 situation and I 
could well be looking for new employment), could somebody provide me with a 
simple checklist that I can run through to get this installation up and running 
successfully without encountering these problems?

It is not essential (but it would be preferable) that the existing sites are CF 
enabled, but I would need all future sites to be CF enabled.

TIA for any help,

Jason Thacker

I'm not sure exactly what the issue is as I have never seen this. But it
must be something in your IIS or Windows configuration somewhere, because I
have CF8 running on IIS and W2K3 for multiple sites with no problems. You
could contact Adobe support (they offer free installation support if the
problems ends up being an installation issue with CF itself) but otherwise
your best bet might be to set up a test server with an identical
configuration and try to install it there rather than risk failures on a
live server.
