How do I access the lucee virtual directory when serving the site via IIS 7?

[res]

I asked this question in another thread, but the thread died so I'm creating a separate one for this specific question.

I have installed Lucee and things seem to working fine. The BonCode connector appears to be working properly and my requests get routed to Tomcat through IIS. CFML pages are being properly processed and served. My problem is that I don't know how to access the web administrator for this site (context?).

After first installing everything, I created a new site in IIS where everything is going to live. I set the webroot to be on a separate drive and I configured Lucee to create the WEB-INF directory a level above the root and with a different name, and that is working fine. But when I go to mysite.com/lucee/etc. I get a 404 error, which makes sense because there is no 'lucee' directory under the web root. I know the directory is some kind of mapping or virtual directory or something, but I don't know how to make it work with IIS. I can access the server admin by going to mysite.com:8888/lucee/etc. but that is working because specifying the port number causes it to bypass IIS all together. I must be missing something obvious here, but I've done so many searches and read so many docs and nothing is clearing it up. Can anyone provide any guidance?

Have you deployed Lucee as the ROOT web application in your Tomcat?

Good setup guide here (OSX but same principles for the Tomcat bits): http://brianflove.com/2015/03/05/lucee-on-mac-os-x-yosemite-quick-start/

Guessing you probably just need to add the .cfm to your Lucee admin request. That way, you'll hit the BonCode .cfm extension handler and the request will be handed off to Tomcat and Lucee instead of being handled by IIS and returning a 404.

For example, instead of this:
http://yoursite.com/lucee/admin/

use this:
http://yoursite.com/lucee/admin/web.cfm

or this:
http://yoursite.com/lucee/admin/server.cfm

Kind regards,

Wow, that was indeed the problem. I knew I had to be missing something obvious, but that was even more obvious than I expected. Thanks for your help.
