Question

Installing CF9 on Windows Server 2008 Standard 64-bit

Hi-

I'm attempting to  install a new ColdFusion configuration with a host who is useless  regarding the support that they offer (for now, they shall remain  nameless).

It's a Windows Server 2008 Standard 64 bit VPS  configuration. MySQL is already installed so I'm on the hook to  configure ColdFusion 9 with IIS (7.5, I believe). There are numerous  settings which the installer does not seem to address so I've had to  address several Module Mappings which failed during the install....

Can  anyone point me to an installation doc for the above configuration?  Will the CF installer eventually handle these issues or are we on our  own to support this?

Thanks in advance,

Rich

... correction, I just got off the phone and they said it's IIS version 7. Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Rich

My advice is to get out now and go to a site like hosting.com that has a solid track record hosting CF. There are several others to choose from. If they are starting this rough you will have constant problems.

... actually I really need a VPS solution, and it sounds like they only offer other things which won't really work for my situation at the current time.

Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it.
