Installing Lucy in windows 2012 with IIS and CF already running

[st...@andrologix.com]

I've always used ACF since version 4, so I have no prior Railo or Lucee exposure, as far as setup goes.

I have an existing IIS server setup with 8 sites running CF11, and I would like to try my next site with Lucee.

I've been trying to read few a few things but they all seem like they are using apache as the server rather than IIS

https://bitbucket.org/lucee/lucee/wiki/Newbie%20Questions

I was hoping that Lucee could be installed, IIS could be used and that I could just use an ISAPI filter attached to the individual IIS site like I do with ACF11... sort of like what the web connector tool does.

Is that possible, or do I have to fully commit an IP address for use with apache/tomcat/lucee?

Is there any existing documentation that I've missed that would help me?

Thanks

Steve

Hi Steve,

This is probably the guide you want:

https://bitbucket.org/lucee/lucee/wiki/How%20to%20set%20up%20a%20Lucee%20Server%20on%20Windows

Personally I'm a *nix person, so we use Apache but I think that guide covers everything. There should be no reason why you can't have ACF and Lucee running side-by-side.

Kind regards,

Andrew

You need mainly to ensure they don't use same ports first.

lucee folder\tomcat\conf

server.xml

Allow you to change ports ( beside you can change them during setup) for example Coldfusion might use 8xxx ports and you can move to 9xxx to avoid conflicts.

Also check the great docs over IIS / Tomcat

http://boncode.net/connector/webdocs/Tomcat_Connector.htm

You can also use lucee with Jetty.

Thanks!

In downloaded the installer and installed it on a different box I had available that didnt have ACF installed.  It went through smoothly, but automatically added itself to every site in IIS,  by adding the boncode connector to the handler mappings.  I found that removing the 2 lines it added was enough for me to stop those sites from servering cfm files.

Once I get a little more comfortable on its settings I will try it with an existing ACF server.

I thought I had saw someplace in the install instructions that it allowed you to pick which IIS sites you want to connect, but it didnt for me.
