That’s fine (that you did not do it “again”). I did not mean to imply you should. I just meant you should make sure it was done at all, which you have. So that at least confirms that the problem is not related to that. And I do know that someone else replied on the thread saying they are getting the same problem. I just want to make sure all possible user errors/mistakes/misunderstandings are ruled out before concluding that there is indeed a clear bug in CF.
That said, I will note one other possibility worth considering: perhaps the problem is in the configuration of IIS (done by the connector). Here’s another area where some have problems: when you ran the CF web server config tool, did you use the “run as administrator” option (by right-clicking the shortcut to the tool as you ran it from the start menu or desktop, or starting the command prompt as admin if you ran the tool from there)? It can be necessary, especially on Windows 2008/2012, Vista/Windows 7.
Now, some people don’t do that, either because they don’t even know it’s an option, or others assume they don’t need to because they are “already an administrator”. I’ll just say that I’ve seen times when folks have NOT done it, and therefore their IIS configuration was NOT correct. There is documentation from Adobe (in the docs and in blog entries) about what the correct configuration should be (with respect to the CFIDE and Jakarta virtual directories created, the ISAPI filters created, the handler mappings if any, etc.)
One other thing: is this a machine on which you had previously had CF9 installed and configured with IIS? It could be that some vestiges of CF9 settings remain (in IIS, whether at the folder, site, or server level), which can impact things if not removed (and they may not be removed because of the problem of the web server config tool not having been “run as administrator”).
Just some thoughts. If you remain stuck, and don’t want to wait for Adobe to confirm/resolve your bug report, and think that having another pair of eyes could help, I offer a list of folks who can provide CF server troubleshooting services (myself included), at www.cf411.com/cfconsult.
One last thing: you may want to put together some code that demonstrates the issue (a page offering a web service, a page calling it, and clarifications on what people should do and see and what you’re seeing), and others may try it. (I do know, of course, what’s needed to do that myself. I just am not free right now to give it a try. And yes, perhaps if I’d tried it rather than taking the time to write the above I might have experienced it. Didn’t think of it until too late.)
