Multserver configuration installation problem : URGENT

  • April 7, 2012

Trying to upgrade to CF 9 from 8.01, the unstall of 8.01 hung on folders.

Now I can't reinstall as the option is greyed out message :

"This option is disabled because JRun 4 has been detected on this machine"

I have removed the JRun directory, all instances of CF, any key's I could
in Regedit.

Does anyone know what I need to delete to allow me to reinstall?

Thanks

Gary

    Thanks guys, resolved the problem the registry key to delete is

    "Uninstall Adobe ColdFusion 8 (Multiserver)". I had previously removed all the instances using the command
    line which is : sc delete [INSTANCE_NAME].

    Found the registry key using the registry search using Adobe, however I never realised how many abobe fields there would be.

    Should have just searched for ColdFusion which was obvious.

    Thanks again

    Maybe look for keys with mention of "adobe" and "macromedia" too, and remove 'em too.

    Try re-installing ColdFusion 8. Then uninstall it by the book.

    I was uninstalling by the book, however the uninstall failed at the folders part, I beleive due to the high number of files in the \cfclasses folder.  I want to reinstall as you suggested, however it won't allow me to, hence the post. I need to know what to clear to allow me to reinstall?
