Yes, it does. I reinstalled ColdFusion using the "non-secure" mode and it still will not run on websites in anything other than my c: drive. At first, it gave me the 404 file not found (CF) error. Then I changed the runas account on all the ColdFusion services (as specified in the lockdown guide). I added this account to the Adfministrator group. Now, when I try to open my site on the W: drive (browsing to any .cfm page from IIS), I get a Server 500 error -- even on the Administrator.
Can you tell me what permissions are necessary to run CF10 on IIS 7.5 on a local drive other than c:? I think this is what's going on, here. Thanks.
