Installing CF9 with IIS7

Note: The following instructions are primarily meant for Mayville State University students that are running Windows 7 64bit laptops.

  1. Open up a browser. Chrome, Firefox, or IE will do.
  2. Type in http://localhost/. If you see the following image, then IIS is setup and ready to go. If not, follow these instructions and come back here.
  3. Next, we need to make sure that IIS is configured in such a way that coldfusion can interact with it. Run through this tutorial to make IIS coldfusion ready.
  4. Now let's go to the coldfusion website and download the installer. Download it here.
  5. Next... run the downloaded program and follow this tutorial, keeping in mind the following:
  • Step 4 - choose the developer edition
  • Step 5 - choose enterprise multiserver configuration
  • Step 6 - uncheck .NET integration services
  • Choose the default on the rest of the options.
  • Do not enable RDS on step 11
This should get you well on your way to being able to run coldfusion 9 locally.
