ColdFusion 11 Update 16 - Issue?

Recently Adobe released HF16 for CF11 but I am having issues installing it.   the details log file states that all prerequisites are successful but it errors out with "No Administration Privileges" even though I am running it from an administration command line.

I didnt have this problem when I implemented HF15.  Matter of fact, as a test, I uninstalled and reinstalled hotfix_15.jar without any issues in the same command line.

Is there a place I can look to see what HF16 is attempting to access or do where HF15 didnt?  This is all on a Windows 2008R2 server.

Here is the log output (minus some details on the admin line)...

There see to be a lot of problems with this hotfix. https://www.petefreitag.com/item/858.cfm The solution to this particular problem seems to be adding the logged in user directly to the administrators group.

Tonyam, thanks for the information.

I finally was able to apply the patch using command line.  I had to add -i console to it in order to apply the fix.

The scheduled tasks were also an issue but I was able to fix those as well.  The scheduled tasks are failing with null pointers because a "variable" for clustered wasnt added via the patch.  My fix for that was doing a find/replace after reviewing adding a new scheduled task in 11u16 and comparing it to the 11u15 's neo-cron.xml.

Hopefully this helps others,
