Have you copied the ./farcry/* directory tree into the webroot of your
application?  Can you reference the webtop as http://youdomain.com/farcry/core/webtop?

Make sure your shared host does *not* have an existing CFIDE mapping
for "/" or for "/farcry" -- either of these will prevent the
installation from working.

You need to modify the security provision in Application.cfm of the ./
install directory -- but yes.  Note you haven't encountered this yet
-- you haven't actually got a correct file install in place just yet.

FarCry 5.0 is specifically designed to work in the environment you
have described.

What CFIDE mapping?  There should be *no* CFIDE mappings required for
your specific mode of installation.

So far you haven't really encountered an issue with FarCry -- you are
still struggling with being to address the code properly.

* remove any "/farcry" or "/" mapping from CFIDE
* remove all virtuals in IIS
* copy the farcry code base into the webroot of your project
* call it by referencing http://youdomain.com/farcry/core/webtop

Report any errors to this forum :)
