Im having problems with compression under IIS 8 (Windows 8 Pro).
It works fine in Windows 7 under IIS 7.5 but in Windows 8 Pro It doesnt work.
After looking very deeply, I have compared the applicationHost config files (Windows 7 and Windows 8) and I found something interesting....
In Windows 7 I have inside applicationHost under globalModules the tag <add name="DynamicCompressionModule" image="%windir%\System32\inetsrv\compdyn.dll" /> and I found the file compdyn.dll inside System32\inetsrv
In Windows 8 I dont have that line in my applicationHost file under globalModules and the compdyn.dll is missing inside System32\inetsrv
So actually Im sure that the issue, anyone know why Windows 8 Pro (IIS 8) doesnt come with that dll??
Is there something I have to do?
Thanks a lot and hope someone can help me.
FIXED
Simple Solution: Had to install the Dynamic Content Module for IIS and that's all.
You have to install the feature on the Windows 8 Pro machine. From Start, type Programs and Features. Click on Turn Windows Features On or Off in the left hand column. Expand Internet Information Services/World Wide Web Services/Performance Features/. Place a checkmark by Dynamic Content Compression and click OK. The feature will be enabled and your site should work as long as all other features needed are installed.

I am trying to install IIS on windows 10 but when I go to control panel => Programs and Features =>Turn windows features on or off, the windows opens with none of the features like this:
Please suggest me why I can't see the programs?
Thanks.
Windows 10 comes with IIS 10, and ColdFusion 10 doesn't seem to like it. ColdFusion 10 installs fine, but when it comes time to create connectors (either during installation or by using the tool at C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe), it fails. The error message I get is that it doesn't support IIS 10.
This connector is required to set up the CFIDE and jakarta virtual folders in IIS.
Any way around this?
An already deleted blog post from blogs.coldfusion.com (http://blogs.coldfusion.com/post.cfm/configuring-connectors-manually-for-iis-10) once stated the following
With Windows 10 out, there is a problem that most of the ColdFusion
customers will face, configuring connectors for IIS 10. Wsconfig, the
connector configuration tool, only supports till IIS 8.x. While the
ColdFusion team is working on this issue and will try to provide the
fix for it as soon as possible, there is already a KB article which
can be referred for configuring the connectors manually. Although the
article was originally written for CF10, it can be used for CF11 also.
After following all the steps in the article, you need to do one more
thing. Add index.cfm as default document for your website in IIS.
This solution is only recommended for development environments as
through testing of the connectors with IIS 10 is still going on. So
for production machines, you should wait for the actual release from
Adobe.
UPDATE
Important update: Note that ColdFusion 10 and 11 have been updated to
support Windows 10, a couple months after this blog post was first
written. Consider applying that update rather than this manual
configuration.
If you are running Windows 10 Pro, you also have the option of running a Virtual Machine in the included Hyper-V offering. Instructions on how to enable Hyper-V are found here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2014/10/02/step-by-step-creating-and-running-a-windows-10-vm-on-windows-8-1.aspx
Simply spin up a version of Windows required.
apply latest hotfix for cf 11 hotfix_019.jar. that will fix the issue above
Today I upgraded my windows 7 ultimate to windows 10 pro. Every thing seems to work fine. But the localhost is now throwing error : HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable.
I checked IIS, it is running. I checked the version of IIS from IIS Manager, it is showing Version 10.0.10240.16384.
I test my sites on localhost.
Before upgrade, in windows 7 ultimate it was working fine. I also checked "Turn windows feature on or off" and found that IIS is installed properly.
Please guide me.
Thanks Joe Raio for providing the hint. I checked the event log and found that rewrite.dll was causing error. I uninstalled IIS URL rewrite extension and the problem is gone. Now everything is working as before, classic asp, php, everything.
Please try this solution
Go to the Application Pool ...
Advanced Settings ...
Process Model ...
Identity ...
Set it to "LocalSystem"
I'm hoping there is a simple reason for this, but I can't find it anywhere.
I am looking at 2 separate servers, both have IIS 7, one is Windows Server 2008 R2 Version 7.5.7600.16385 the second is Windows 7 Professional Version 7.5.7600.16385.
The first had a option on the AppPool settings to enable32bitAppOnWin64, but the second does not.
Does anyone know what the default functionality will be on the second, as well as how to change it, and why it does not show up when it is the same build of IIS, but only a different server OS?
Thanks
Sounds like you're running Windows 7 which isn't 64 bit. You can check this by going to:
Control Panel > System
Then take a look at the System Type: field.
How do I get FubuMVC to work on WinXP with IIS 5.1?
You might not be able to. I think it works with IIS 6, but older versions may not have the ability to route requests like the framework requires (but that's a guess).
FubuMVC docs at http://mvc.fubu-project.org/documentation indicate that:
FubuMVC can work with IIS 6 (Windows 2003) and IIS 6.1 (XP), but it’s more complicated to set up. This guide will focus on IIS 7.
(I suspect that IIS 6.1 on XP is a typo of IIS 5.1)
Does anyone have any alternative information - either an explicit "can't work" or a "this is how I bodged it?"
