Installation of Colufusion 2018 updates

Hello,

I am trying to install an update for coldfusion 2018. I have downloaded the zip file and I am trying to follow the steps shown below for installing the update manually   

 

  1. Click the link to download the JAR.
  2. Execute the following command on the downloaded JAR. You must have privileges to start or stop ColdFusion service and full access to the ColdFusion root directory.

    Windows: <cf_root>/jre/bin/java.exe -jar <jar-file-dir>/hotfix-003-314033.jar

I am unable to do this as the file that is being downloaded is a zip file and its not a JAR file, so its not working.

Can someone please advise how to install this update ?

Thanks

IQ

    Hi IQ,

    Please change the extension from .zip to .jar and run the updater again from command prompt.

    Thanks Priyank, just renaming the file from .zip to .jar did not work.

    I unzipped the zip file and then zipped it but saved it as a JAR file, this helped. Thanks for your help.
