Is there an official place to find out what "private" hotfixes are still needed after updating to the latest 2018 or 2021 hotfix release?

Anyone an expert with Event Gateways? @jesson diazz has an interesting Q on the general channel...

Is it possible to switch Robust Exception Handling on by default in a docker-image-based CF install? Having to go into admin to do it is a bit rubbish. cfconfig isn't an option here, I'm afraid.

Do you know you can create a B.I. platform using ColdFusion and Lucee instead of Python, R, Scala and Apache Spark? Our technology has its features and much more... I'd like teaching B.I.

@Mark Takata (Adobe) / @saghosh can you pls tell me how I'm supposed to tell what the update to CF-3909712 is, based on this mess you just sent me:

Second question to same ppl. I got this:

Issue - https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/CF-4205217 Version updated to '15.0'

What version is "15"? (I can count, that's not the point). CF stopped using sequential versions in 2016. 7yrs ago.

URGENT: Updated CF2021 to Update 6 and Java 11.0.18, and I'm seeing this bouncycastle error, "org.bouncycastle.asn1.DEREncodable". I've applied the fix suggested in that issue by Brian B, no change, same crash. Is there an official fix? Any ideas? @Mark Takata (Adobe) @priyank_adobe @saghosh

For anyone trying to attend my talk, the staff screwed it up, so there's no link. Go my.adobeconnect.com/marktakata to attend. Just go in as guest. Sorry all.

Any traction yet on this? https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/CF-4216439

<squeaks like a squeaky wheel> 😄

I found an interesting exceptin in my logs. See thread for stacktrace. I have no idea what is triggering this error.

question for license...what does this mean: we have Adobe ColdFusion Enterprise Term License -- 12 months....Does this mean we have to pay an annual fee for the license? as you all know license wording is confusing....

https://cfsummit.adobeevents.com/ ColdFusion Summit 2023 in Las Vegas Registration is open!

@Mark Takata (Adobe) Can you have the web team optimize the image sizes on your CFSummit link above. Two of those JPGs (used as thumbnails) are over 9 Megs!! 😳

Has there been any recent word on when 2023 will be out?

https://trycf.com/gist/3ac938ad7f31c25f7ee62a962c9cac11/acf2021?theme=monokai Just why ColdFusion? Why?

General question for the masses here: How many of you ALSO program and/or are proficient in Python in addition to ColdFusion? Like, if a project had a Python component to it, you'd be able to pick it up without having to learn a bunch of stuff?

Curious... would anyone happen to know what version of Datadirect driver is included in CF2021?

I know as of CF2018 it was still version 4.2

Just a heads up for anyone running ColdFusion 2018/2021 and updating the JDK to the latest release: I went from 11.0.15 to 11.0.19 and I couldn't get the ColdFusion service to start back up. When 11.0.19 is installed, it removes the previous version entirely and installs in a different folder name (old folder was

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.15

, new folder is

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11

. I had to manually fix the path in my jvm.config file before ColdFusion would start up again. Not sure if this change happened at 11.0.19 or on of the prior releases post-11.0.15. This is probably a good thing long-term. Once installed and jvm.config is corrected, probably won't have to worry about the path again.

Somewhat disappointed but yet not surprised that GitHub CoPilot does not recognize CFML. See: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/identifiers And maybe subscribe to, comment, and like this discussion: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/53224

Quick question (as I have exhausted my Google-fu) - Has anyone seen/run into issues with running CF2021 on a MS Server 2019 VM that has "Hypervisor Enforced Code Integrity" turned on? On a freshly built VM - got CF2021 up and running - installed my app - got it configured and running. Ran for most of the day. Then I went to restart the CF Application service - and now the service won't start. I get a Microsoft "error code 2". The app seems to run fine on the other Server 2019 VM (without the HVCI) - that I had it on. So - if this is a known issue with HVCI - my Google-fu is busted, because I can't seem to find info on it.

Realized belatedly that I needed to install ColdFusion 2021 Add-on Services when I looked at Services and it wouldn't start. I installed the Windows version (on Server 2019) from Adobe, but the path in Services.msc is pointing to jetty.exe at C:\ColdFusion2021... when it's in C:\ColdFusionAdd-onServices. How do I fix this? 😞

Edit - I used sc config to update the path, but Add-On Services attempt to start now says: "The service did not respond to the start or control request..." Obviously I just don't have something set right somewhere. Any ideas?

How the heck does the SNS subscription actually fire when a topic is published? Reading this: https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/using/integrate-coldfusion-amazon-sns.html#Subscribetoatopic I can see you can subscribe, but what does CF actually do when a 3rd party publishes to the subscribed topic?

👋 has anyone tried running CF2021 against more than one tomcat virtual host? i'm seem to be encountering issues with package manager not playing well with non-default virtual hosts:

Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: The sqlserver package is not installed. You can install the package through the CLI package manager (/opt/coldfusion2021/cfusion/bin/cfpm.sh) by running the command : install sqlserver. at macromedia.jdbc.MacromediaDriver.connect(MacromediaDriver.java:236) at coldfusion.server.j2ee.sql.pool.JDBCPool.createPhysicalConnection(JDBCPool.java:666) at coldfusion.server.j2ee.sql.pool.ConnectionRunner$RunnableConnection.run(ConnectionRunner.java:67)

even though i do have the sql server package installed:

Hi Adobe friends, I assume Java 17 support is going to eventually come to CF2021? Is there an estimated timeframe for that? Even with CF2023 coming in the near future, we are in a bit of a bind with our window to upgrade, so 2021 is our only choice, and we have internal requirements to use Java 17 across these environments very soon. Thanks!

I am trying to upgrade a site to ACF2021 Update 6, and getting this error on site start:

'long javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest.getContentLengthLong()'

This is a result of using

cfthread

, something simple as this blows up:

<cfthread action="run" name="anything"></cfthread>

I can dish more details but I am hoping this is a known issue with threads in 2021 and there is a quick fix? 🙏

Scenario: We are running CF2021 (Update 6) on Windows Server 2019 (and 2022) with Virtualization-based Security and Hypervisor Enforced Code Integrity. After a day or so - each CF Application Server simply stops functioning (service stops and cannot be restarted - restart results in the useless "Error Code:2" After working with Adobe support for a short while - I was instructed to remove the command "-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005" from the jvm.config CF2021 now runs and operates as expected. My question is - what does that command ACTUALLY do - and how will it impact CF2021 if it is NOT there?
