Problem Description:
In Windows 2008 R2 x64 with IIS7, any sites that were configured by ColdFusion during the install work fine but new IIS sites can't render or find .cfm pages and throw a 404 error when you try to browse to them
Steps to Reproduce: On Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 with IIS7, install ColdFusion 10 and set it to configure all IIS sites. After installation all sites should work. Add a new site in IIS and point it to any directory with a .cfm file in it then browse to that address. I get a 404 error from all cfm files in the new IIS sites.
Actual Result: New IIS sites can't render coldfusion pages
Expected Result: New IIS sites should render cfm pages the same way sites configured during the installation do.
Any Workarounds: Uninstalling coldfusion and then reinstalling it fixes the issue with those new IIS sites however any additional sites will require another uninstall/re-install in order for their cfm pages to not give a 404 error.
