Question

CF 8 to 11 default.html and login.cfm stuck in endless loop.

I have a ColdFusion 8 site that runs fine on an old Windows 2003 server that needs to be decommissioned. I’ve been able to test the site on a VMware Windows 2003 server image and that works well. I just install IIS, move the site folder into “C:\inetpub\wwwroot\” then install ColdFusion 8 and add one ColdFusion data source to an MDB file.

I need to move it to a new 2012 Server and when I do the same as above on a Windows 7 32-bit or Windows 2012 Server 64-bit with ColdFusion 11 the default.html page that just opens the login.cfm page get stuck in a loop with the URLs flashing back and forth with an empty webpage.

I know there are some issues with 32 vs 64-bit but I have the same issue in Windows 7 Windows 7 32-bit or Windows 2012 Server 64-bit but I think I'll have more issues if I can get passed this first one as the data source on Windows 2012 Server 64-bit fails the verify:

Connection verification failed for data source: OMS-HAYWARD

java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket]internal error: The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application

The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket]internal error: The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application

Help!

      LastName,

    Is there something, anything I can try?

    I found and set the web service version to 1 but that did not help.

    I’ve been testing various VMware installs with Windows 7, Server 2003 and 2012. I was finally able to install and run ColdFusion 8 on Windows 7 64-bit and run the OMS site. The trick was (along with installing the IIS 6 Management Compatibility and ISAPI Extensions and filters) to install the 32-bit version of ColdFusion 8 and set the IIS application pool to run 32-bit applications.

    I still can’t get the site to run on Server 2012 with ColdFusion 11 and the ColdFusion 8 Web Server Configuration will not run when installed on Server 2012. Even installing the 32-bit version of ColdFusion 11 and setting IIS up the same as the working Windows 7 64-bit install, I still get the endless loop.

    I still can't get the login.cfm to open but I was able to get the data source on Windows 2012 Server 64-bit to verify with this info:

    ColdFusion-10 64bit and MSAccess — Adobe ColdFusion Blog

    Don't know if it works yet but...
