MX Installation error
I am reinstalling an upgrade copy of CFMX on a replacement
server. I've installed this version on several different Windows
2000 servers over the past few years. This is the first time I've
installed in on Windows 2003 Std Ed. I have selected IIS and am now
on the directory setup page. The "Install CFMX files to" selection
is set to c:\CFusionMX, which is correct. The problem comes with
the "Install Web Files to" selection. It is pointing to just a
plain backslash, "\". No disk drive and no directory. I would
expect it to be pointing at c:\Inetpub, since it knows I want to
use IIS. When I click the Change button, I get the following error
msg: "Error 1314. The specified path \ is unavailable". I'll buy
that, but I can't do anything about that because it crashes when I
try to do something about it. To top it off, it then takes me out
of the installation procedure with no way back. You have to go back
to the start of the installation and reenter the serial numbers,
etc.
Like I said, I've installed CF (3.1 to MX) probably a dozen times on W2K servers over the past 6 or 7 years and never had a problem like this before.
I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions, if anyone has one, because i'd dead in the water at this point. Thanks in advance for your hep.

P.S. I tried it 4 times and got the same result each time.... Does this meet the definiton of insanity yet???
