Setting up a Cold Fusion Server

[mufka]

I am using IIS 4.0 as a web server and I'd like to investigate supporting Cold Fusion. What is needed to provide this support? I currently have Frontpage extensions installed. Can they co-exist?

Front Page and Cold Fusion can certainly coexist. Although, I wouldn't try to edit Cold Fusion files in Front Page. Use Cold Fusion Studio or any text/HTML editor.

Cold Fusion installs just fine on IIS 4.0 and will recognize this as your web server upon installation. You shouldn't have any problem there. Perhaps more important than web server is the operating system of the server. John Hoarty

Which product needs to be purchased to do the install?

Thanks

You need to install ColdFusion Server. There are two levels of the server application (professional and enterprise).
You can download an evaluation copy of ColdFusion from

http://www.allaire.com.

You might want to download the CF Server documentation and read it (what a concept).
Note: If you are testing, I highly recommend you DO NOT install CF Server on a production box. Test it! Play with it. Then install it into production.

You need Cold Fusion Professional (the "Application Server&quot. Cold Fusion Studio is a completely optional application development / editing software. John Hoarty
