Have been programming over 30 years and CF in its various forms since 1998, but have to say this upgrade is NOT straightforward and after 3 very frustrating days I've finally reverted to CF9.
CF10 Standard upgrade from CF9. Running on dedicated IIS 7.5 on WIN 2008 R2 Server. All 64bit.
Upgrade installation worked correctly. RDS was selected as was the Upgrade all IIS sites.
Initially CF10 failed to start and checking IIS showed the connectors had NOT been installed. CF10 Administrator just showed raw machine code.
Used the CF10 Web Server Configuration tool on "ALL Sites" - no difference.
Removed "All sites" and then installed the connectors against individual sites. This worked - but then I noticed each site was running the CF9 connectors!
Removed each. Then ran the CF9 Web Server Configuration tool to remove all CF9 connectors. Confirmed they had been removed in IIS, then ran CF10 Web Server Configuration tool to add the connectors and all worked well.
This morning I rebooted the server to confirm CF had "installed" correctly, 3 of my 5 sites too 10 minutes before they could be accessed. Then after 30 minutes I'd get a simple white screen with "service unavailable".
Can't afford to have our sites and clients sites intermittent so have reverted to the CF9 connectors and took CF10 offline.
Hopefully someone else has had similar experience and can shed some light on this issue.
Thanks
Peter
