Hi everyone,

I just installed a developer version of CF8 in my local machine. And I also decided to install "kb403622 — ColdFusion 8.0.1: Cumulative Hot Fix 1" hotfix. So I went to System Information section, click the Browse Server button beside the Update File text field and I got an error message saying "Server Error IO error on server commnication".

Can anyone help me with this error?

Thanks in advance.

    That, oh-so-helpful, error indicates that you do not have RDS enabled on
    that server. Unfortunately RDS is required for any of the file browse
    controls in the ColdFusion administrator, but it is highly *NOT*
    recommended to have RDS enabled on production servers.

    So your two choices are to enable RDS and utilize the browse feature.

    OR

    To manually type the full path name in,but have a more secure public server.
