9.0.1 Update Problem

I am running CF 9.0.0 enterprise on Windows 2003 R2P2 IIS 6 and just tried applying the 9.0.1 update to use some of the new functionality that are included.  Last Friday I installed the Windows executable (without errors) and when the services can back up, got the well documented blank screen.Since I had already applied the 9.0.0 hot fixes, I decided to re-install 9.0.0 to give myself a clean surface to do the 9.0.1 update (yesterday).  I installed 9.0.0, configured my environment, and tested my application to make sure I had my data source connections correct.  I then re-applied the update without any errors.  I even configured the webserver configuration manually (I had seen notes on the net that this fixed many blank screen problems) with the same results.

Here are the errors from the exception log:

I have been unable to find anything regarding the coldfusion.vfs.VFile, graphing, Watchservice or security services.  I assume I must have something either turned on/off incorrectly, but don't even know where to look.  Any help that can be provided is greatly appreciated.

    Wanted to give an update of my progress today.

    I again began with a clean installation of 9.0.0.  Brought up the CF administrator and completed the installation.  From there, I went directly to installing the 9.0.1 update and the 9.0.1 hotfix.  To my amazement, the cf administrator came up with an issue. But . . .

    I then went into the administrator to install my 'customizations' (i.e. my datasources, my SMTP mail server, my custom tags, etc).  Truly nothing unusual.  Almost sad to say - vanilla.  I then shut down the service as recommended to have some of the changes 'take effect'.  Boom, the cf administrator no longer appears but gives me the blank screen and the same error messages I have listed in my first note.  So again, it must be "something either I turned on/off incorrectly, but don't even know where to look".

    Would this be considered a bug?

    Hi Libby,

    Have to say not seen those errors before. Perhaps there will be some interesting details in the CF9/runtime/logs EVENT and OUT files that will help debug what is going on. I think Stop then Start CF9 and see if anything obscure gets recorded during the CF start-up or once CF has started in the EVENT and OUT log on the file system.

    HTH, Carl.
