Hi !


I appreciate if you would help me set up a site in Dreamweaver. Particularly the testing server which I can't wrap my head around despite reading a lot about it and watched numerous tutorials. All servers are on my computer. I use Windows 7 Pro, IIS, SQL Server and Coldfusion 2016. I just started a 30 day trial so the server should be fully functional. Dreamweaver is also the latest edition as I subscribe to Creative Cloud. I have created two folders on the C: drive called localfolder and testserverfolder and a folder in C:\inetpub\wwwroot called wwwfolder. All the Coldfusion services are running as is the IIS website.

Below is how I've set it up so far.

Site name: mysite

Local folder: C:\localfolder\

Remote Server basic tab

Server name: webserver

Connection: local/network

Server folder: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wwwfolder

web-url: akillevs.se/wwwfolder/

Remote Server advanced tab

Server model: Coldfusion

The remote server is marked as: Remote

Now when I press f12 the text in both the .htm and .cfm files appear but the cfm code will not show, only Hi, #name#. Obvioulsy I need a testing server to engage Coldfusion to see what's inside #name#. So what do I write below?

Testing Server basic tab

Server name: testingserver

Connection: local/network

Server folder: ?

Web url: ?

Testing Server advanced tab

Server model: Coldfusion

The testing server is marked as: test

Thanks for your help!

Mike :-(
