Installing ColdFusion 9.0.1 Updates and JVM


I am updating ColdFusion 9 to 9.0.1, I followed all the steps mentioned in https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/kb/cumulative-hotfix-4-coldfusion-901.html. Then followed instructions on https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/kb/change-coldfusion-jvm.html. Copied MSVCR100.dll from C:\program files\java\jdk1.7.0_21\jre\bin\ folder to CF9\runtime\bin. Changed the config.jvm to Java.home=C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0_80/jre. Then Restarted the ColdFusion Server and I got the following Error [enter image description here] [1]: https://i.sstatic.net/qovy0.png https://i.sstatic.net/qovy0.png

Solution

  • The path within your jvm.config file (note that it is not config.jvm as you mentioned) should not include the 'jre' folder. It also seems like you have to double up the slashes to escape them. It should look like this:

    java.home=C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.7.0_80
    

    That should get you passed that error.

    All of these versions are unsupported of course. You should upgrade to supported versions. You will keep running into issues.
