Edition not changing from developer to standard

I am having an issue with CF8 64BIT (8.01) when I enter the serial number fo the standard edition we purchased, the serial number appears to be accepted, but the edition stays at developer.  Any ideas on how to resolve this?  I can just reinstall the trial version if that is the issue as we just installed it... but I would rather esolve it with the install we already have. Thanks in advance Eric

Are you sure you are entering the correct license key, where are youu copying it from? Regards Russ Michaels From my mobile On 16 Apr 2012 19:37, "Eric Roberts" <owner@threeravensconsulting.com> wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

Are you sure about that?  I can't find anything that says that it is only the enterprise that is 64... > I am having an issue with CF8 64BIT (8.01) when I enter the serial > number fo the standard edition we purchased, the serial number appears > to be accepted, but the edition stays at developer.  Any ideas on how > to resolve this?

Please visit this, it is not in your face, but if you notice the Windows 64bit is half circles. If you scroll back up it tells you that ColdFusion 32bit is supported on 64bit only. http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/coldfusion8/systemreqs/ -- Regards, Andrew Scott WebSite: http://www.andyscott.id.au/ Google+: http://plus.google.com/108193156965451149543 On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 9:57 PM, Eric Roberts < owner@threeravensconsulting.com> wrote: > > Are you sure about that?  I can't find anything that says that it is only > the enterprise that is 64... > > >

I see it now...thanks.  They didn't make it very clear.  A simple Standard is 32 bit only would have been better ;-)  Thanks again for helping me clarify. Now off to unistall the 64 bit vesion and reinstall the 32.  One other question...does this require the 32 bit version of IIS or will the 64 bit version be ok.  I seem to remember seeing something about that before.

you can run 32bit CF on 64bit OS, however you may still have issues with things like MSACCESS if you still use that On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 4:39 PM, Eric Roberts < owner@threeravensconsulting.com> wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

I understand that...I just seem to remeber seeing something about needing a 32bit instance of IIS to use the 32 bit CF.  is that still true or was that corrected in 8.01. ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

the only thing you may need to do is put the websites application pool into 32bit mode, other than that it should work fine. On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 5:06 PM, Eric Roberts < owner@threeravensconsulting.com> wrote: ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

Thanks! ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----

So what happens if you install the 64 bit trial and enter in a standard key? Does it just revert to developer after the 30 day?  They should put something in the registration process about this.  When I put the key in from the developer edition...at first it would accept the key, then I re-entered it thinking I entered it wrong and it accepted it.  I think something is broken in the license process.

there are separate downloads for 32/64bit but it makes no difference what license you are using, this only enables/disables features. Adobe introduced 64-bit support for ColdFusion for the first time in ColdFusion 8, which can run on Solaris SPARC. Since that time, Sun has released a 64-bit JDK for Intel x86-64 processors. With the release of this new JDK, along with the efforts from the ColdFusion team to ensure the 64-bit compatibility, the ColdFusion 8.0.1 update has added full 64-bit support for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. For complete up-to-date details on ColdFusion 64-bit platform support, refer the ColdFusion platform support matrix <http://www.adobe.com/go/coldfusion8_update1_support_matrix/>; . Most of the functionality and features of ColdFusion run just fine on 64-bit platforms, however, certain features like ColdFusion COM interoperability, ColdFusion Delphi interoperability, and Microsoft Access database connectivity do not work on a ColdFusion 64-bit platform. A few other features, such as ColdFusion .NET integration services and database drivers currently run in 32-bit mode.

not sure if that came out right, try again. The download is either 32 or 64bit, there is no separate download for enterprise or standard, all downloads are for all editions, it is your license key which determines which edition you have by enabling/disabling features. According to the docs (below) In CF 8.0.1 64bit  is a feature which requires enterprise license, so your standard license is probably not being accepted for that reason. Does ColdFusion have 64-bit support? As of ColdFusion 8 Update 1, ColdFusion Enterprise and Developer editions can run as 64-bit applications on the 64-bit versions of the following operating systems:    - Windows XP, 2003, Vista and 2008    - Macintosh OS X 10.5 (for Intel-based Macs)*    - Red Hat Enterprise Linux5.0    - SUSE Linux 10.1 and above (glibc-2.5-25 is required)    - Solaris 9 or 10 (Also supported in the initial ColdFusion 8 release) * Note that Mac PPC 64-bit OS is not supported. For detailed information about supported platforms, see the ColdFusion System Requirements <http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/systemreqs/>;. Note that ColdFusion 32-bit cannot be upgraded to ColdFusion 64-bit using the Update. ColdFusion should be uninstalled and installed again using the 64-bit full installer available on theColdFusion 8 Trials page<http://www.adobe.com/go/trycoldfusion>; . ----- Excess quoted text cut - see Original Post for more -----
