Install Error in WS 2008 R2

Attempting to install CF10 on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard 64bit SP1. I've attempted twice and received an error near the end of the installation process both times:

"ExecuteAppCmd.exe has stopped working."

After dismissing the error, the installation finishes but cfm templates are not being processed. Upon launch of the administrator on the server computer a 403 error is received:

"HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found

The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map."

Has anyone experienced this this issue, or have ideas about resolving?

AppCmd.exe is IIS command line tool.

No have not seen that before myself.

Perhaps run as administrator from Start > Adobe > CF10 > Web Server Configuration Tool. Does it look like CF10 is connected to IIS? Windows 2008 r2 so I guess IIS (web server role) is in use. EG:

Yes, the configured server is as pictured. I also tried adding different configs (specific IPs), but when trying to remove them the same error was thrown. There was a version of MX7 previously installed if that makes a difference. 7 of course wouldn't run without some major tweakkng, so it was removed and we're trying 10 instead. Could it have left something behind? I see nothing suspicious in the temp directory.

Here's the error:

When using the config tool, I can remove, and then re-add the connection, but get the same error when adding. I followed the steps for manual config in the link you posted, but cfm templates are still not rendering.

Is all this because MX7 left it's connector in place after uninslall? If so, is there a way to manually remove it, and then just reinstall 10?


Hi,

After following the manual config steps, can you check the handlers mappings(cfm, cfml, cfr, cfswf). They should be pointing to cf_root\config\wsconfig\[Magic Number]\isapi_redirect.dll

Can you check that.

We would suggest you to remove the MX7 connector manually (removing the physical files) first, and then try to reinstall CF 10.
