    Ok I installed CF8 on Win 2008 server and web server configuration tool was able to configure all IIS 7.5 websites. I can even launch CF administrator website but when I try to launch other website, I get

    HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error

    The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.

    Module IsapiModule

    Notification ExecuteRequestHandler

    Handler AboMapperCustom-2075429447

    Error Code 0x800700c1

    What is causing this error and how to fix this?


    Have you installed Coldfusion using an installer of appropriate bitness: 32-Bit/64-Bit Coldfusion respectively on a 32-Bit/64-Bit Windows Server?

    Make sure the service account IIS is using has access to the C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\lib\wsconfig\ folder.  Also, CF7 is not certified for IIS 7.5 (the version on Windows 2008R2).  You might need to install the IIS 6 Management Compatibility features to allow the CF7 Web Server Configuration tool to work.

    I gave IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool NTFS permissions to C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\lib\wsconfig\ folder.  Under IIS 6 Management Compatibility, I installed IIS 6 Metabase Compatibility and IIS 6 Management Console installed.  Web Server Configuration tool doesn't work because my IIS version is 7.5 and Supported versions are 4, 5 and 6. So I manually added using this article http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/iis-configuration.html but no luck.

    I didn't add IIS 6 WMI Compatibility and IIS 6 Scripting Tools.

    Is it because CF7 doesn't work on IIS 7.5 on Win 2008 R2 SP1?

    CF7 was released in 2005, long before Windows Server 2008 or 2008R2 even existed.  So it should not be surprising that getting it to run on a more current OS is difficult.  You also can't run it on a current JVM (Java 7 or 8), so nearly a decade of performance and security fixes to Java are completely unavailable to you.  If at all possible, consider upgrading to CF10/11 for compatibility with current versions of Windows Server and Java.  If you can't upgrade to CF10/11 due to cost, then take a look at Railo (an open-source CFML engine), which may be viable depending on which features of ColdFusion you are using.

    Run the Web Server Configuration Tool. A previous thread for your reference: Web Server Configuration Tool Fails
