As I have changed the port from 8500 to anything else and uncommented the CFIDE from uriworkermap.properties it has started working from all the servers. But in my other existing CF2016 envoirnmnet this type of setting is not there, CFIDE is  not uncommented in uriworkermap.properties and still we are able to access the console froma ny of the server.

I'm not able to understand what I'm missing 


A) did you really mean to say "still we are able to access the console from any of the server" (or did you mean NOT able)?

 

B) are you using a port in the url to get to the admin, yes or no?

 

C) again, please answer the first questions I asked. I will not reply again until you do. It's potentially significant.

Sid, please clarify: did the connection between this same iis and this same cf 2016 ever work? If so, what changed? If  not, how do you know that the settings are "properly configured"?

 

There are so many moving parts, and any one thing could be wrong, especially if you or anyone may have made any manual changes, trying to "fix" things.

 

If neither Priyank, nor I or others here can solve things based on whatever you may share, just know that it may take only minutes for an experienced person (like one of us) to solve your problem via a screenshare, where we might quickly assess and diagnose many possible explanations for things not working.

So are you accessing the cf admin using a port, like the default 8500 for cf's built-in web server? If so, could a firewall on the cf server or elsewhere in its network be blocking access to that port from other machines? It would by default. If that's not it, please answer the questions I'd asked.
