Just to make sure of the basics.

You have installed a ColdFusion server?

You have run the web server connector tool?

Can you access a ColdFusion Adiministration page?

I use coldfusion to create website/s and are running like cviagencyinc.com hosted at godaddy for example.

This a days I was thinking to use my computer as a hosting computer from my home, So, I install coldfusion on another computer to do so also I get static from tzo.com to convert my local machicne as static ip. I choose little different setting this time to accomplish with iis.

I choose program to be installed at c: drive and wwwroot  @ c:/inetpub/wwwroot. instade of c/cfusionmx7/wwwroot/

Now after installing coldfusion on this computer it did not open administration page neather it opens any cfm file but it opens htm file from c:/inetpub/wwwroot/index.htm

What I notice is iis needs some engine to process coldfusion files. to do so I belive that whether I need to set up mime, heandler or to point cfm files to processed by coldfusion.

here I need help, how to link, point, or.. to get cfm run.

This is how I did but if you help me set my home computer as coldfusion hosting computer I would like to start over again. Yogesh Surati

Run [CF Dir]\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe (eg: C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe) to check that the IIS connector is installed. If it's not working, there's no problem with removing the existing connector, and re-adding it again.

Also search these forums for suggestions on troubleshooting this sort of thing: it comes up about once every three months or so, so there's plenty of material to use as a troublehshooting guideline.
