Browser downloading instead of processing .cfm files - coldfusion-10

I am using ColdFusion 10 (I don't know why the company hasn't upgraded) and after the initial installation of ColdFusion I can get to the web pages, but instead of opening, they download. I've been at this for hours. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling IIS. The setup is on a Windows 10 machine for development purposes. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Did you try to configure IIS connectors via the Wsconfig tool to add your application (as an administrator)?
Path to the tool for example is here.
C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe

How to get started with vSphere 6.0 and set up the web client?

Linked from here
I've been tasked with setting up some VMs. I've been given some admin details but no further guidance. The server is a fresh install.
My problem is that I'm on Linux/OSX and don't want to run Windows aside from setting up after which I hope to be able to manage things through the web client.
I think there is an ESXi installation. This would be Version 6. How do I set up the web client?
I've installed vSphere Client on a local Windows VM.. not sure what to do with it though.
The documentation is pretty awful and there hasn't been much useful info on the net. I'm really stuck as I didn't set these up and haven't used servers like this before, so I have no context or understanding of the VMWare ecosystem beyond using a virtual machine locally! (even then I've preferred Virtualbox)
Any advice would be amazing
p.s accessing https://[ipaddress]/vsphere-client does not work. Produces a blank browser page... with no html served as an error
If you have the name of the server on which the VMs are stored, type this into the URL of a web browser then it gives you management options or alternatively use this login screen:

How to deploy code on Windows Server 2012

(I am very new to deploying in a dedicated server.)
I have access to Windows Server 2012 through as Remote Login.
I have to deploy my html, js files to the server and then access my html page through a URL.
I am not sure where should I keep my files in the server, launch the server and then access my page through a URL.
In my local server in my machine, I kept the files in
C:\inetpub\wwwroot
And I gave access to others to my page through :
http://myIPaddress/mypage.html
Please suggest where should I keep my code and how can I launch the server.
If anyone can point me to a documentation, even that would be great.
Thank you.
First create web app on the server,
then you can choose any destintion folder for the project.
Follow this documentation

We need to enable IIS first before deploying our files in Windows Server 2012.
I went through the following document I found in Microsoft website. It was very helpful.

Why Eclipse p2site is asking for credentials?

I have a p2site hosted on my server to provide Eclipse Update Site. The server is running an IIS 7.5
I have the same p2site content stored and provided both in my production environment and in my staging environment (two separate servers, with identical characteristics).
From a couple of days, if I connect with my staging environment p2site from an Eclipse Indigo instance, I'm required to enter credentials, which has never happened before.
Moreover, if I manually download the zip archive and install my plugin from this local archive, I'm asked the credentials too.
I can guess, but I'm not sure, that the problem can be related to the following: in the last days we have added HTTPS enablement for our web site, and installed our certificate in the root certificates of Windows Server 2008 R2.
Anyone knows why Eclipse (Indigo, haven't tested the other platforms yet) is behaving in this way?
And how can I prepare my local zip archive / p2site to overcome this issue?
Thank you very much

Just for the sake of completeness, I found the solution on my own: the problem was that for some reasons (that I cannot still recognize...) there was a DENY rule in the .NetAuthorization section for the verbs OPTION,HEAD.
It seems that Eclipse send exactly these kind of requests when looking for p2site and so these requests were rejected and Eclipse was asking for credentials for these requests.
Hope is can be useful in the future for other people.

Setup MVC2 Web App with IIS7

I've seen SO MANY articles that explain how to do this with IIS6, and some that offer SOME guides for IIS 7 but they are ask you to do so much setup and I've tried them all and ALWAYS get errors.
Is there a guide out there that some of you have used that just...works?
All I need is something step by step to setup my local MVC2 app using my local IIS7 server so I can test locally without using VS2010's dev server all the time (gets so annoying).
Assuming you have IIS installed locally you could go to the properties of the project and:

ASP.NET MVC 2 + VS2k10 Empty Start Page

I have a problem where, on some developer machines, everything resolves correctly and the start page is as expected (/Home/Index), but on other developer machines, it will just render a directory listing of the website root. When creating a virtual directory, it works, but we would prefer to use the development server initially if possible.
It's worth mentioning the OS we are working with is XP.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Are you talking about running your website through IIS or through Visual Studio's built in web server (Cassini)?
It sounds like you are using IIS and it is not configured for running MVC properly but without further information it's hard to say.
I would compare the IIS configuration between a working machine and one that doesn't
