ColdFusion MX 6 1 Updater Now Available

http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/cfmx61_updater.htm Think of this as ColdFusion MX 6.1+.  It's a recommended update.  We just wrapped up the Beta program, it's good solid stuff, and basically a single-click install. New for this Updater, if you're running in a deployed-on-JRun configuration, we automatically update you in a single click with this one. Regards, Damon

BTW, one of the fixes in this update handles the obscure cfid/cftoken null null bug. Now that's an annoying one.

The ColdFusion Administrator is broken after applying the patch. The navigation menu on the left side shows the following error message: The tag you are trying to use cannot be found within any tag libraries you have imported. Unknown tag: admin:l10n.   ColdFusion cannot determine how to process the tag admin:l10n because the tag is unknown and not in any imported tag libraries. The tag name might be misspelled.  

Hmm, you're the second person to report this same error (see Paul at TayFusion's comment on my blog). The only references to this I can find before were from Harald Brauer who had this same problem with the CFMX 6.0 Updater 3 installation and no one seemed to post a solution to his problem.

Check the install instructions.  You probably copied the CFADMIN to a different location.  Replace it with the newly updated on at %cfmxroot%/wwwroot/CFIDE/administrator and you should be good to go, as per the instructions. Better bet for next time, use a Alias/VirtualDirectory to add the admin to your web root, rather than copying the files, that way you dont' have to deal with this kinda thing. cheers, barneyb On Thu, 26 Aug 2004 16:22:15 -0400, Micha Schopman <micha.schopman@modernmedia.nl> wrote: > The ColdFusion Administrator is broken after applying the patch.

I'm getting the same thing. I installed cfadmin to d:\www when i first installed Jrun/CFMX, and did the same when i ran the updater. Judging by the date stamps it looks likethe updater has added/ammended 5 .cfm files, both in the D:\www\CFIDE\administrator\ location, and the default D:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\CFIDE\administratorI don't have access to any other servers right now so i can't see what ight have changed till tomorrow. Bert Check the install instructions.  You probably copied the CFADMIN to a different location.  Replace it with the newly updated on at %cfmxroot%/wwwroot/CFIDE/administrator and you should be good to go, as per the instructions.

These are the paths entered during the updater setup. Please select the directory that contains your ColdFsion 6.1 WEB-INF directory: I used -> C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war Please Default I had (= restore default folder button) -> C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\CFIDE but the setup showed me the error that this directory was not a valid CFMX 6.1 directory, so I changed this to c:\inetpub\wwwroot\cfide\ which allowed me to proceed the setup. Is this were it went wrong? For some reason the C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\CFIDE directory is now allowed when I execute the setup screen again. Can I proceed by rerunning the setup procedure with this directory?

Seems like it's worthwhile to post the Release Notes link as well: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/coldfusion/mx61updater/releasenotes_cfmx61_updater.html Regarding the report below (from the Release Notes): "If you have two instances of the CFIDE directory, one in the web server's web root, and the other in the cf_root directory, the Administrator might generate cfimport errors. If you have such a configuration, rename the CFIDE directory that is located in the cf_root directory, or ensure that both CFIDE directories contain the same files by copying the files from web server's CFIDE directory to the cf_root/CFIDE directory after you complete the update. Users who initially installed ColdFusionMX 6.1 using the ColdFusion internal web server and started using an external web server at a later time are most likely to encounter this issue.

just for your reading pleasure... I installed it on my dev box, it was also installed on our demo box and everything seems to be perfect. It will most likley hit the production server tommorrow.

For some reason you have a CFIDE dir in your cf_root and in your webroot. Make sure the two have the same files, or rename the CFIDE dir in your cf_root.

I deleted the files that the installer added to the default directory (D:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\CFIDE\administrator\) and cfadmin now works fine where i installed and updated it (D:\www\CFIDE\administrator\).
