I recently Migrated our sharepoint from windows 2003 to 2008. In doing so I lost Cold fusion and a directory Wizard, This wizard was put in place to create a folder directory out on our network drive when used. Now I have Coldfusion 10 installed on my new sharepoint server, I have brought over all of these directory wizard files but it still does not work. Its like I am missing a certain link in the chain here. Can anyone shed some light on the topic?

The wizard opens up to the first page, which it says next to continue. You would select a company which the code is written to pull a companies list from the network drive, then it creates a folder directory with files in the on that network drive. Now when you lick the initital next button it buttons and takes us to a The website cannot display the page. I still have all the original code files, placed into the same exact directory on the sharepoint server. The sharepoint server is an identical match, but its like somewhere something isnt lined up correctly.

I also have downloaded Coldfusion builder also.

    Without knowing what this wizard is, I don't know how we could help.  Are you able to execute a CFM page with code on it to see if the service running CF has rights to create the directory?

    <cfset directoryCreate( expandPath( '/path/to/new/directory' ) ) />

    or

    <cfset directoryCreate( 'C:\path\to\new\directory' ) />

    I think ColdFusion 10 has a code analyzer built into it that you can run on the wizard files to see if it finds a problem with the code used in those files compared to the functionality that is available in CF10.

    Im sorry im still new to coldfusion. What do you mean by execute a CFM page? I am sitting here looking at my Coldfusion administration page and my Coldfusion builder, and for what you asked I feel I am not looking at the right thing.

    Where do I input

    <cfset directoryCreate( expandPath( '/path/to/new/directory' ) ) />

    or

    <cfset directoryCreate( 'C:\path\to\new\directory' ) />
