Maybe I just haven't tried hard enough to figure out the path situation, but putting "/" at the start of my paths on my dev setup doesn't work. That causes the path to be:
http://localhost/login/... instead, the path needs to be: http://localhost/fortstewart-sm/login/etc., which I get by using ../login I have a mapping in ColdFusion that sets "/" and "/localhost" to "e:\inetpub\webroot" on both by dev setup and my server. I always figured the need for different setup of paths was due to my dev setup being "localhost" for http access only and my server being a multi-homed web server. Putting "/" at the start of a path on my dev setup will always put a directory directly under "http://localhost";, but putting "/" at the start of a logical path on my server puts the directory directly under the websites root folder. So, locally, "/login/include_login_form.cfm" translates to "e:\inetpub\webroot\login\include_login_form.cfm", which is wrong. On my server, "/login/include_login_form.cfm" translates to "e:\inetpub\webroot\fortstewart-sm\login\include_login_form.cfm", which is correct. Is there something fundamental about paths and mappings that I'm missing here?
