Integration with IIS ?

[stevegauci]

We have installed ColdFusion MX Developer Edition on our Windows SBS 2000 Server. This installation has also installed the ColdFusion Application server that enables us to host websites on the buit-in coldfusion web server running on port 8500. Also running on the server are Microsoft Exchange, SQL and ISA services. We would now like to integrate with the IIS services running on the server and have attempted to run the C:\CFusionMX\bin\connectors\IIS_Connector.bat application although an error appears stating "Could not connect to any JRUN Servers on localhost. Confirm that the JRUN Server is started." We have not installed a separate JRun Application Server, only what was installed with the initial ColdFusion MX Developer Edition install. We are able to host ColdFusion websites successfully although are required to enter the port address :8500 in the URL and is part of the reason we would like to use the IIS web server instead as we can eliminate this. Our server also has two network cards installed, one with binds to the internal network, the other with bindings to the external network.

This is what is on the macromedia site:

Make a backup copy of cf_root\

http://wwwroot\WEB-INF\jrun-web.xml,

and then open the original version of the jrun-web.xml file.

Edit the existing virtual mapping to point to the new web document root directory, as shown in the following example:
<virtual-mapping>
<resource-path>/*</resource-path>
<system-path>C:/cfusionmx/

http://wwwroot/</system-path>

</virtual-mapping>

You can now move the CFIDE and CFDOCS directory to the new web document root.
Caution: Do not move the WEB-INF directory. It must stay under the cf_root/

http://wwwroot

directory.


you say that you are using the developer edition of CF. You do know that this is only accessiable via the localhost don't you?

hope this helps!
