I went to our production server today to connect a new website to a ColdFusion instance and wsconfig would not cooperate with me!
Using the GUI, and clicking the 'Add' button, the interface would just freeze. So we went to the command prompt to do it manually, and we could list the connectors just fine with wsconfig. But when we entered a wsconfig add command, it again froze with no response until the process is killed with the task manager.
The wsconfig was running under the localadmin account that the sysop logged in with and should have had plenty of permissions as far as we could ascertain. So what could be a problem here?
The wsconfig worked just fine all the previous thirteen times we have used it to connect IIS web sites to our ColdFusion instances on this system.
Windows 2003 running ColdFusion 9.0 if that helps anybody.
