CF9.0.1 + CHF4 and IIS 6 32-bit application pools: question of versions of wsconfig.jar?

I did a test installation update to CF9.0.1 + CHF4 and then updated the wsconfig.jar on the remote IIS 6 web servers, running 32-bit application pools. The IIS connections to the remote backend ColdFusion servers failed; I fell back to the older wsconfig.jar


The wsconfig.jar that is updated with the ColdFusion 9 Update 1 does not work with our IIS6 web 32-bit app pools; the older wsconfig.jar [JRun 4.0 (Build 108795) JRun ISAPI Extension - Aug 29 2009 11:51:27] DOES work with the 32-bit application pools.

Question:  can I safely run the older wsconfig.jar on the IIS 6 32-bit application pools [JRun 4.0 (Build 108795) JRun ISAPI Extension - Aug 29 2009 11:51:27] with CF 9.0.1 + CHF4?

We are running in distributed mode.

Thanks,

Scott

    Hi Scott,

    Thank you posting your query.

    Does your ColdFusion installed as 64 bit or 32 bit?

    Yes, you're correct that there is difference in Wsconfig utility between CF 9.0.0 and CF 9.0.1. However you can still use ColdFusion 9.0.1 with 32 bit App pool. You have to do some changes manually to make it working.

    When you create the connector with this utility and if you're running 64 bit CF 9, then you have to replace the 32 bit dll in wsconfig folder to make your app workinig which used 32 bit App pool.

    Here is an article to create manual connector with IIS 6.

    Also if you face issue or have doubt please send your query to cf.install@adobe.com

    Thanks, Priyank.

    I contacted cf.install@adobe.com with more detailed information re. the installation, wsconfig.jar DLLs, etc.  It is delaying and might end up cancelling our move to CF9 Update 1 + CFH4.
