How does one go about getting the install bin for CF 2018 linux when coming from comand line only RHEL?

Are you asking about getting installation files? They should be on the cfml repo https://www.cfmlrepo.com/

safe?

yes, but surely there's a way of installing them from Adobe, @Mark Takata (Adobe)?

Me, a Windows user 😳 Um, can you just aim GNOME at https://download.macromedia.com/pub/coldfusion/updates/14/gui_installers/ColdFusion_2021_GUI_WWEJ_linux64.bin?

With CF2021, we have also added ZIP installer which you can extract and install so we called the full installers as GUI based installer. You can download and run this using command line. None of our customers has GUI based Linux OS except for few who are using IDE to write the code.

Adam I think Adobe only allows the latest version (2021) from their download site. That is why I shared the repo link.

Thanks guys. Yeah I needed the 2018.

@Mark Takata (Adobe) another idea for you guys. Adobe should provide a means of downloading all of the currently supported versions of ColdFusion. Not just the latest version.

See my complaint in @Mark Takata (Adobe) post about wishes for ColdFusion - re: being able to wget ColdFusion installers LOL... head desk

There is a way to curl it from the cfml repo

You can, A) download to your computer using whatever browser you like, then FTP/ SCP/ the file to your Linux box, B) you can download and use a terminal browser such as lynx or w3m, you could mount the file URL as a file system using httpfs2.
