Question

Font Mangement not showing fonts after adding additional instances coldfusion 2016

We are trying to use the cfdocument tag on coldfusion 2016 and getting errors on creating the pdf.

I have found that the issue only appears on the coldfusion servers where we have defined multiple instances. 

On the default cfusion instance everything works perfectly.  When running from additional instances it does not.  In the coldfusion administrtor the Font Managment does not show any fonts on the additional instances.  On the cfusion instance I can see all the Adobe installed fonts that were part of the initial install.

On startup of the additional instances I am getting the error 

May 27, 2020 21:45:47 PM Error [Thread-65] - com.lowagie.text.FontFactory.getFontFaces()Ljava/util/Map;
May 27, 2020 21:45:47 PM Error [Thread-65] - com.lowagie.text.FontFactory.getFontFaces()Ljava/util/Map;

 

This is also the same error that appears if I try to define my own font directory.

How can I get the fonts to appear on the Font Management in the additional instances.

 

We are running on RHEL 7.5 and Apache

    Did you upgrade all your instances to the same level? The latest update of ColdFusion 2016 is Update 15.

    Yes, I'm running Update 15 on the instances.

    I'm seeing this same thing across multiple servers.  The default cfusion install has no issues with the Fonts and the Font Management showing in the coldfusion administrator.  All the additional instances do not show the Fonts in the Font Managment and are showing this error in the log.

    In which log file do you see this?

    It might help to simply restart the instance concerned.
