What to do with cf10_mdt_updt.jar on a mac?

Question

I was successful running this on my Win 2008 R2 production server but running it on my Mac OS development box has me a bit stumped.

Here is what I tried...

1.

I downloaded the file cf10_mdt_updt.jar and placed it in << /Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion/hf-updates/

2.

I launched Terminal and tried to run it by running the following command in Terminal...

/Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion/hf-updates/cf10_mdt_updt.jar

3.

I received the following message...

-bash: /Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion/hf-updates/cf10_mdt_updt.jar: Permission denied

I also tried running it in /Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion/bin/cf10_mdt_updt.jar

I made sure I was logged in through terminal and that the file cf10_mdt_updt.jar was not locked.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,Assuming you have java in your class path you should be able to just runjava -jar /Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion/hf-updates/cf10_mdt_updt.jarif not, point to java in your CF directiory/Applications/ColdFusion10/jre/bin/java -jar /Applications/ColdFusion10/cfusion/hf-updates/cf10_mdt_updt.jarCheck out the server update section of the CF manual for more details http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/10.0/Admin/WSe61e35da8d318518-33adffe0134c60cd31c-7ffe.htmlCheers,Simon

I don't have a clue how to even run a .jar file? I just figured I'd try to type the path to it in Terminal. Is that even correct? Has anyone running CF on a Mac ran this Manditory Update? I'm curious if there are detailed directions on how to run the update on that platform?
