Question

Getting a copy of Cold Fusion 6

Hi All,

I've got a client who needs support for his CF 6 app. He doesn't want to upgrade to CF 8 right now, but that makes troubleshooting and development work a bit difficult, because I don't have a CF 6 license anywhere. I know you can download free "developer edition" copies of CF 8, and I was wondering if there's any way to get the CF 6 developer edition (if they were doing developer editions when 6 came out).

Any ideas?

-Josh

John - Thank you very much for posting the link! I am working on an older site and do not have a local copy of 6, so that is a great help.

You should be able to find ColdFusion 6.0 for dummies for about nine cents on Amazon. That book should have a CD with a trial version of CF6.

If you still have some old CF books around, see if any of them have a CD on the back cover. Often you can find old developer/trials on the CD.

post you question on houseoffusion's cf-talk list
( http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/), and Dave Watts from Fig
Leaf Software will likely tell you how to get it - his company is
authorized by Adobe to distribute prior CF versions, iirc...

Yes, they have had developer editions since at least 4.5, when I started
ColdFusion and I'm pretty sure from long before that.

All installations of ColdFusion will install as either trial or
developer if you do not provide a license number. And the trial
editions will revert to developer at the end of the trial period.

So, your only problem is to find a ColdFusion 6 installer.
Unfortunately, I do not believe you can get this from Adobe anymore.
But if you can find one you are good to go.
