[cfaussie] CF and Windows 10 and IIS
I am about to upgrade some of my machines to Windows 10 and I thought it would be a good opportunity to drop Apache and start using IIS instead. ( I'm doing the first upgrade on a laptop I dont use much, so if anything goes pear-shaped it's no big deal. ) Can anyone point me to any resources for learning about the Win10 version of IIS (or any version if it comes to that - my knowledge of IIS is pretty basic) And how do I connect CF (I have CF9 Enterprise installed) to IIS instead of the Apache I've been using? DO i have to uninstall and reinstall CF9? -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion 9 Enterprise, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.

How about trying it on a dev box first?

[cfaussie] Installing CF11 on 64-bit Windows 2003R2 with IIS 6
Hi everyone, I have an old Windows 2003 R2 server which still runs CF8 with IIS 6. The server is a production box in DMZ. The only good thing is it's 64-bit and it got lots of RAM - about 20G. Now I'm considering about install CF11 on this Windows 2003R2 server with IIS 6. The reason behind that is: - The company I work for will NOT decommission this server soon. - Most of the development here now are based on local CF10/11 Dev environment. - I'd like to get better security and performance, as well as better cfdocument capability which we used a lot to produce large PDFs out of HTML By checking the system requirements matrix from Adobe for CF11, it looks like Windows2003R2 + IIS6 should be OK but it also looks like it kind of just hit the minimum requirements. About a year and half ago I've done upgrades to CF10 on two Windows 2008 servers running IIS7.5 and it all went well and we rarely had any issue. (FYI I can't use these servers for certain sites as these are servers sit inside corporate network and can only serve internal sites). But for upgrade to CF11 on Windows 2003 + IIS 6, I'm not sure if an old server like this will have any issue? So my question really is has anyone had similar experience and if you could share that will be helpful before I go ahead. Because the server is in DMZ, I will have to install few things manually like MS VC++ re-distributable package and CF update etc. For IIS7.5, ISAPI Extensions, IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility, CGI and .NET framework features need to be added. How about IIS 6? Anything that need to be aware of? Thanks in advance, Xiaofeng -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
