Hi,

I need help to understand how to distinguish installation of standard and enterprise versions of coldfusion on machines.

Both version shares same ARP name,installation directory.

In case of application deployment for upgrade how to detect which version is present on end users machine?

Is it depends on license key? or anything from machine we can use as detection method?

    Can you better clarify your goal? Are you really asking how to tell via some cfml code what version of cf is running that code? Perhaps because you have many cf instances using different licenses, and you seek to create a utility informing you which is which?

     

    If so, note that CF has a variable called server.coldfusion which has several keys, and one of those reports the product edition.

     

    Please let us know if that satisfies your need

    Hi @Meta32799932tth6,

     

    There are several ways to confirm if they have installed the Standard or Enterprise edition. The easiest way is to:

     

    1. Check the serial key. The Standard edition starts with 1187, and the Enterprise edition begins with 1185.

     

    2. Log in to the ColdFusion admin console and check the Setting summary page or left top corner page for the edition info.

     

    Thanks,

    Vikram
