ColdFusion 9.0.1 Update Now Available

Adobe released update for ColdFusion 9 yesterday. I have installed the update on my server running Windows Server 2008 with IIS 7.

This update now supports running ColdFusion with IIS7 without installing IIS6 Metabase Compatibility. Finally! IIS7 is almost 4 years old!

Download the update from: http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html#cf9

Note: If you are running IIS7 with IIS6 Metabase Compatibility, then you'll have to remove IIS6 MC and that will require a restart of the server.

This update is recommended as it includes many bug-fixes and security hot-fixes.

    Hello , could you please help me figure out what the issue is?
    I had CF 9.0 running on WIn 2008 R2 64 bit and installed the 9.0.1 update as per the instructions. When I used the CF config tool all my sites went down and was left with a 404 error on all sites.
    I went into the applicationhost.config file after much research and found these entries below.
    The first entry was causing the error when I removed it from the config file all my sites started working again. The error said the path was invalid... but the path was good.
    Here are the handlers I found for CF, also are these the correct ones for 9.0.1? Please help..thanks!

ColdFusion Manual Configuration & Issues with TCP ports 51011, 51010 and 51800 on IIS and Apache

Image
ColdFusion works by configuring your web server (IIS, or Apache) to execute files with known extensions (.cfm, .cfml, .cfc et al) to run as script. And for doing that ColdFusion comes with a small and important tool called “wsconfig”. Problem: At times, regardless of operating system and the web server you are using, the ColdFusion installation will fail to configure web-server due to your network settings or firewall/security settings. When running wsconfig tool, you may encounter errors similar to the following:Could not connect to any JRun/ColdFusion servers on host localhost. Possible causes: Server not running
- Start Macromedia JRun4 or ColdFusion server Server running
- JNDI listen port in jndi.properties blocked by TCP/IP filtering or firewall on server
- host restriction in security.properties blocking communication with server Snapshot above shows one of the common scenario when wsconfig will not configure IIS.Solution: H…

Configuring Apache Tiles to Avoid Caching During Development

When you want to use Apache Tiles, you will find that your tiles are cached and are not refershed when you reload the page in web browser.

This is a non-issue in production environment because once your webapp is deployed in production you never change your Apache Tiles templates and pages. However, in a development environment this is cumbersome since you will have to redeploy your webapp each time you make a change in your templates.

I faced a similar problem recently and the I found out the I could use the 'useMutableTilesContainer' property in TilesConfigurer class and the 'cache' property in TilesViewResolver class.

You configuration should look something like this:

   <bean id="tilesConfigurer" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles3.TilesConfigurer">
          <property name="definitions">
             <list>
                <value>/WEB-INF/path-to-your/tiles-definition.xml</value>
             &…
