Cannot create a new site while a VD/code works in Default site. IIS 7.5 Windows 2008r2 64 bit system

We are moving from CF8 to CF11, windows 2003 to windows 2008 r2 64bit, IIS 6 to IIS 7.5. When I have my code as a VD or placed in the wwwroot, in the Default website, the site works OK but when I create a new site pointing to the code,placing in a different folder, it throws an error :

"The requested content appears to be script and will not be served by the static file handler."

1. All the Handler Mappings are mapped OK.

2. Tried re-installing ASP.NET, iisreset etc.

3. Tried changing the AppPool.

Please reply ASAP.

Thanks & Regards,

Naresh.

Hi Naresh

Let's first make sure that this is not an IIS issue. Like, if you have another server or may be 2-3 test VM where you can test the same.

If on the other servers, you are not facing the same issue then re-install IIS and then create connector once again in the server where you are facing this issue.

Also, make sure that if connector is 64 bit then the app pool should be 64 bit as well.

Thanks

Hi Naresh,

Did you copy WEB-INF folder that is present under ColdFusion webroot to the newly created VD? if not can you please copy the folder, restart the server and try again?

Regards,

Hari

Thanks but VD in the Default site works without any issues. The issue is with creating a new site. New site doesnt work.

Did you run the Web Server Connection Tool to add a connection to the new IIS web site?  Make sure you run that tool "As Administrator".
