04/12/2023, 9:37 PM@ryan That's really outside of CommandBox

04/12/2023, 9:38 PMYou can use the CF add-on services with a CommandBox server, just like any other J2E installation. You have to install the service and configure ACF to use it.

04/12/2023, 11:11 PMThanks for the reply, Brad. Do you mean that we would need to install the service from a stand-alone CF installer in order for the service to operate?

04/12/2023, 11:12 PM@ryan Correct. That's how Adobe made that stuff

04/12/2023, 11:12 PMIt's not part of the Java WAR, but a separate installation

04/12/2023, 11:12 PMAnd by "installer", I mean the appropriate add on installer

04/12/2023, 11:12 PMNot the ColdFusion installer

04/12/2023, 11:12 PMoh

04/12/2023, 11:12 PMAdobe has a download page where you can get separate installers for all the add-ons
bdw429s
04/12/2023, 11:13 PMlike PDF, etc

ryan
04/12/2023, 11:13 PMare those add=ons able to be grabbed from within CFAdmin?
b
bdw429s
04/12/2023, 11:13 PMNope

04/12/2023, 11:14 PMI looked into automating them at one point, but found terrible support/docs for any sort of silent installers
bdw429s
04/12/2023, 11:14 PMAn automated setup was simply not part of Adobe's design, I'm afraid

ryan
04/12/2023, 11:14 PMok, that helps. Thank you so much .

04/12/2023, 11:15 PMThe installers are different for each adobe version and each operating system

ryan
04/12/2023, 11:15 PMI just happened to noticed this

04/12/2023, 11:16 PMNice, that's somewhat new
r
ryan
04/12/2023, 11:16 PMmight be new, but might be something old and unusable.

04/12/2023, 11:16 PMHmm, that seems to be for the CF installer itself, not the add-on installer

04/12/2023, 11:18 PMfrom 5 years ago -- impossible to actually set the .NET installer ports ahead of time. You just get random ports and then manually edit config files to fix

which is marked as closed, but I'm not clear what they actually did to resolve it 🤔
