I have a ColdFusion 8 site that runs fine on an old Windows 2003 server that needs to be decommissioned. I’ve been able to test the site on a VMware Windows 2003 server image and that works well. I just install IIS, move the site folder into “C:\inetpub\wwwroot\” then install ColdFusion 8 and add one ColdFusion data source to an MDB file.
I need to move it to a new 2012 Server and when I do the same as above on a Windows 7 32-bit or Windows 2012 Server 64-bit with ColdFusion 11 the default.html page that just opens the login.cfm page get stuck in a loop with the URLs flashing back and forth with an empty webpage.
I know there are some issues with 32 vs 64-bit but I have the same issue in Windows 7 Windows 7 32-bit or Windows 2012 Server 64-bit but I think I'll have more issues if I can get passed this first one as the data source on Windows 2012 Server 64-bit fails the verify:
Connection verification failed for data source: OMS-HAYWARD
