Dear All,

May I know the min system requirement installation of ColdFusion 8 Application Server? Can it install & run in Windows Server 2008 with IIS 7.5?

Which supporting library / software is required if any (such as Java?)?

Also, is it possible to export all settings in ColdFusion 8 Server and import to the new one?

Yes. That question was answered earlier in this forum. See Jason Holden's blog.

ColdFusion 8 already contains the Java version that it requires.

Also, is it possible to export all settings in ColdFusion 8 Server and import to the new one?

Yes. When you install ColdFusion 8 on a server that already has an existing, recent version of ColdFusion, you will, during the process be able to import existing ColdFusion server settings. The ColdFusion 8 installer will enable you to do this by means of the Migration Wizard.

Hi,

Is Migration Wizard only can do the upgrade? I just want to export all settings.

Since we will migrate existing server to new one, is it any method to export all settings in existing ColdFusion 8 Server, then, I just import the setting back to ColdFusion 8 Server after the new windows server is ready?

Yes, migration wizard is there, when you are installing a newer version of CF, on an existing version. You can have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/kb/purpose-location-xml-configuration-files.html. Once you know, which all settings you wish to backup, move them from the old server to new server. The "neo-" files contain the CF settings.

P.S. Do take a backup of the "neo-" files to be overridden. You may have to roll back, in case things doesn't work as expected.
