Last weekend, critial updates were installed on our server, and it was re-booted. Now, all the ColdFusion apps on the server are pointing to CF7 instead of CF8. (I stopped CF7 and our intranet is offline... if I stop CF8, our intranet runs fine). How do I get the apps to point to CF8 instead of CF7?

    Have you tried to re-register your webserver using webserver configuration tool? Before doing so, run the wsconfig on CF7, and delete all you webserver connections, then run the wsconfig in CF8, then re-register.

    6, 7 and 8 has webserver configuration tool (aka wsconfig)

    A quick way to do it in CFMX7 is
    1. Go to {CFMX7_ROOT}\bin\connectors
    2. run REMOVE_ALL_CONNECTORS.bat

    Once removed, you can do:
    1. Go to {CF8_ROOT}\bin\connectors
    2. run IIS_Connector.bat

    Worked! Un did the CF7 registrations, and re-did the cf8 registrations. Also set CF7 to not start on boot-up.. :-)

    Thank you!
