We have been using CFMX7 (7.012) for several years. We recently had to rebuild our Web server and now the CF Administrator page does not load. We receive the following error in FirFox "

Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)

We did a single server install on a Win2003 Enterprise Server. The CFIDE directory is located in the Default Website Directory. I am stumped. Anyone have any ideas. I have already uninstalled and re-installed CFMX and it still does not work. Please assist if you can. All of our company sites are Coldfusion and we are nable to set the DataSources.

    Doesn't one get that error when the host header is not set up in IIS?

    Yes, I'd check that you can see a cfide folder in your IIS webserver root.  If not then add it as a virtual server.

    The default location is I think:

    C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE

    Hope that helps.
