I know its possible to install multiple versions of CF on the same server.
However, is it possible to have multiple versions using IIS instead of the built-in CF web server? If so, how do I set this up?
Thanks in advance!
Say you have three sites in IIS viz, Site1, Site2 and Site3. Try the following as an example:-

Hi lunadesign,
I am not clear, by "multiple versions". If you are referring to running multiple websites in IIS, they can run on different ports like 80, 81, 82 and likewise. If you are referring to different versions of ColdFusion with different websites in IIS, they can also run on different ports with different versions of CF.

In case I missed something, please elaborate.

Sorry....I should have been more clear.
I'd like to run CF 8 and CF 11 on the same server with some IIS sites using CF 8 and others using CF 11. It sounds like this is possible, but how?

Thanks for the clarification.
Yes that is possible.

You can create individual connectors to individual websites in IIS. The connectors can be from CF8 or CF11. The only thing needs to be considered is, same website should not be configured with CF8 and CF11. One site with only version of ColdFusion.

Thanks Anit. That sounds fine.....I wouldn't want to mix CF8 and CF11 on the same site. How do I set up connectors on a per-site basis?

So now, you have Site1 and Site3 configured with ColdFusion 11 and Site2 configured with ColdFusion 8.
Hope this helps

Anit,
I was able to use this information to successfully configure CF10 and CF 11 on the same server, with IIS as the web server. However, when I log into cfadmin for either version, I am presented with this screen;
When I select an item it, and other selected items, are displayed normally. However, if I log out, and then log back in, I am again presented with this view. I have tried removing web connectors for both installations, setting the server service for both to manual, rebooting the server, activating the server service (CF10 or CF11), and then creating the web connector for only the site to be served under that version of CF. Even then, the situation persists. Also, I do not even know if this would be problematic, should I move this server into production service. Any ideas?

Hi Scott,
This happens due to corrupted connectors. Could you please remove and re-add the connectors?

Vikram,
Thank you for the reply. I tried this, using wsconfig, but still have the result. Are there files I should also delete, to assure that I am removing all corrupt files?
Thanks,

Vikram,
I have since read a little more, and determined that using wsconfig is removing the "..\wsconfig\#" folder (# = 1, 2, etc.). However, after verifying that the number folder is being removed, rebooting the server, recreating the connector, and restarting the service, I still get the double opening screen.
