Question

CF 9 Performance Monitor problem on Win Server 2003 R2 x64

This is a new install of both the operating system and CF 9. I'm unable to get the CF 9 counters to even show up in Performance monitor.

I get the following error in the Event Viewer when trying to enable them... any ideas on what to try next?

"The data buffer created for the "ColdFusion 9 Application Server" service in the "C:\WINDOWS\system32\cfpefmon_9.dll" library is not aligned on an 8-byte boundary. This may cause problems for applications that are trying to read the performance data buffer. Contact the manufacturer of this library or service to have this problem corrected or to get a newer version of this library."

    Bdolnik, that message may not be a real problem. I'm pretty sure I've seen it even on servers where the counters did show up ok.

    Let's clarify a couple of other things first: as for not seeing the counters, have you in fact enabled the option in the CF Admin? Second, is your CF9 deployment either Standard, or Enterprise Server? If it's Enterprise Multiserver, then the perfmon counters are not supported (though perhaps the message may still show up). For instance, that DLL may have been placed there by a previous supported install but not removed on a redeployment as multiserver. That's just a guess. Trying to help.

    Thanks Charlie, yes I've enabled it in the CF Admin and restarted the service. It's an Enterprise install, however it is not Multiserver. Are you saying it's not supported on Enterprise at all? We have used it on prior versions of Enterprise (MX).

    No, I said it is supported on Enterprise Server, but not Multiserver.
