Question

CF8 version 8.0.1.0000

Hello,

Has anyone else applied CF8.0.1 latest security patch? See:

An odd thing happens to the CFadmin UI (http://.../cfide/administrator/index.cfm)  - System Information post upgrade. Before it reports:

System Information 
Server Details 
Server Product  ColdFusion 
Version  8,0,1,195765   
Update Level  /D:/ColdFusion8/lib/updates/chf8010004.jar

So that is CF8.0.1 with CHF4 applied.

Post upgrade it reports:

System Information 
Server Details 
Server Product  ColdFusion 
Version  8,0,1,00000   
Update Level  /D:/ColdFusion8/lib/updates/hf801-00003.jar

I have not yet applied the patch to CF9.0.1 to see if a similar thing occurs. My CF applications seem to be working OK.

Regards, Carl.

    I first installed the upgrade on a CF 9.0 developer workstation and the version was updated to 9,0,0,251028.  When I installed the 8.0.1 security update on a development server I experienced the same issue you did.    The new version number now shows as 8,0,1,00000.  Everything I have tested on the 8.01 box appears to be functional but I have no confidence that it is running the current version.

    Hi Wally,

    Indeed it is difficult to be confident with  CF8 when the version numbers go backwards. Even the reported update level is strange in the naming convention since CHF4 was so called chf8010004 and CHF prior were …3,2,1, now we are back to 3 again. From a quick examination could be hard to know if CF8 is CHF3 or the new release, I guess the version change to zero would be your visual clue?

    On a more positive note I do not see any errors in log files and CFM CFC etc applications are working OK for me.

    Regards, Carl.
