404 Error when installed at root on iis #90

Closed Dan20 closed 4 years ago

Dan20 commented 4 years ago

I'm about to do my first deployment of BatFlat (which I love) but I'm having a strange problem. Running BatFlat from the root generates 404 errors.

I put a fresh download of BatFlat in a subdirectory it works fine. In the root just 404s.

Even stranger, the /admin/ path works fine from the root. So it seems to be related to file paths?

I'm using an IIS VPS with ColdFusion and PHP 7.3.4

I'm mostly a front-end guy, so this is a little out of my comfort zone. I appreciate your help in troubleshooting this!

I've decided to move the site to a Linux server where all seems to be working. I'm not certain what the problem was but I suspect it was ColdFusion related. At one point I saw an error about a # delimiter (# has special meaning in ColdFusion and # vs ## typos cause errors).

The server was a fixed cost for me, but it was a pretty ridiculous environment for BatFlat. :)
