asked on

configuration of coldfusion server

Hi,

I have coldfusion MX server installed in my system. I already have IIS installed in the system and hence when i installed the coldfusion server it automatically configured the CFIDE pages to the Inetpub\wwwroot of the IIS.

Now i would like to run my own cfm pages using this server under a directory called sample. So i created a virtual directory in IIS under inetpub>wwwroot as sample and placed the files ther.But when i go to the url

http:\\localhost\sample\first.cfm it shows "file not found" error.

I have also configured the Coldfusion administrator with this logical path. But still it is not displaying the page.Can anybody please help me to fix this error.


Thanx
awsns.

http://localhost/sample/first.cfm is what it actually is

when you open IIS and look at the default website, can you see the directory "sample" underneath it?

Also try and enable directory browsing on the default website (not recommend for production servers), this will enable you to browse the web directories.
Your IIS website needs to be configured with the path to where "sample" is actually located.

Open IIS
Under Home Directory Tab:
  --> Click the top radio (A driectory located on this computer)
 --> Under local path enter the path to the sample directory.

Click OK
