Attending ColdFusion Summit 2018 was worth my while

I’ve been programming with ColdFusion full time since 2000 and I finally attended a summit at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas this year (2018).

After submitting my suggestions to a handful of engineers and the product development crew with Adobe, they strongly suggested I join the CF Community, so here I am!

First up, I am finding that if I offer a reply to someone’s question, and then I go back to edit that reply, the system is losing all the paragraph […]

CF2018 on IIS v10 Win auth issue

I am trying to install CF2018 Standard on Windows2016 with IIS10. Having an issue with restarting a server on port 80. Every time I need to restart it, I have to go to IIS and disable Windows Authentication and enable Anynymous Authentication. Then, once it’s started, I can go back and do the oposite.
