there are 2 different things

1. virtual directory for ur web server [IIS / Apache / CF built in web server]
2. virtual mappings in CF

what do u wish to do ???
In IIS right click on the web site entry and cilck all tasks, create virtual directory.

In CF use Administrator.

my version of cfmx is developer and i think this is the reason other people cannot see it. IS THERE ANYWAY AROUND THIS?
Hi,

are the ppl. getting an error msg? What does it say?

With developer version you can only request pages from the machine where CF is installed. The only legal way around it is to buy a license, because then you get a valid serial number and your server will be "Pro" or "Enterprise"... whatever you buy.

HTH,

i had pro but forgot to put in the version number after reinstalling cf..people can see it now!
good. :-))
prcept this is not working anymore, here is my example

    <virtual-mapping>
    <resource-path>/FRs</resource-path>
    <system-path>C:/CFusionMX/wwwroot/IERROR</system-path>
  </virtual-mapping>

it does not work when i go to

http://localhost:8500/FRs/home.html 

it works when i go to

http://localhost:8500/IERRORs/home.html 
Hi,

in your mapping you forgot the last letter in the system path... IERROR instead of IERRORs. ;-)

HTH,

Chris
no i mistyped , it works when i go to

http://localhost:8500/IERROR/home.html
