ColdFusion 10 Server Update HotFix 1 'no updates were found'

Hello,

I'm trying to apply the hotfix to our new CF10 server, but the update page says 'no updates were found'.  This also shows when I click the 'check for updates' button.  Could it be b/c i'm behind a corporate firewall?

Is there anyway to manually install the hotfix?

    Hi Mike,

    Please follow these instructions to install Mandatory update in ColdFusion 10 also the hotfix.

    Go to this link to download the mandatory update: http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html#cfm10

    Once you download the .jar file if it shows you .zip instead of .jar then just change the extension to .jar.

    Copy this file into the “ColdFusion_Home\jre\bin” folder

    Open the command prompt as “Run as Admin”.

    In command prompt go to ColdFusion_home\jre\bin and then type this command there  java –jar cf10_mdt_updt.jar and press enter. It will start the installation and once done then you can install other updates.

    Once Mandatory update done, the go to this link to download the latest hotfix and follow the same steps as Mandatory updates.

    http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/coldfusion/hotfix_008.jar

    Copy this file into the “ColdFusion_Home\jre\bin” folder

    Open the command prompt as “Run as Admin”.

    In command prompt go to ColdFusion_home\jre\bin and then type this command there  java –jar hotfix_008.jar and press enter. As this is cumulative that has all the previous hotfixes. Again while running the update manually please check the directory where you have installed ColdFusion and point to that location.

    Please let me know if that helps.

    Regards,

    I found the fix:

    • If the ColdFusion server is behind a proxy, you need to specify the proxy settings for the server to get the update notification and download the updates. Proxy settings can be specified using the below-mentioned system properties in the jvm.config in case of standalone installation or corresponding script file for JEE installation. 
      • http.proxyHost
      • http.proxyPort
      • http.proxyUser
      • http.proxyPassword

    I'm still having issues - i can't get the server to start up once i put in the config settings

    -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxyhostURL

    -Dhttp.proxyPort=proxyPortNumber

    Can anyone tell me if this is the correct syntax?
