We are running ColdFusion 10,282462 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit) server.  There are several updates waiting to be downloaded and installed.  Before I can install these updates I need to download and install a manditory update.  I have downloaded the manditory update, but I am not sure where on our server that I need to copy the files included in the cf10_mdt_updt folder which I downloaded from your website.  Where do I copy the downloaded files to on our server?

Correct answer jc01txstate

Try placing the cf10_mdt_updt.jar file in cf_install\jre\bin\ (install directory of ColdFusion10). Do not place the jar in a folder.

Hope this helps.

I had to rename the cf10_mdt_upd.zip to cf10_mdt_upd.jar in order to install the update.

Thank you for your assistance.

Hello jc01txstate,

Thank you for your post.

  1. Place the cf10_mdt_updt.jar file in cf_install\jre\bin\ (install directory of ColdFusion10).
  2. Launch Command Prompt as Administrator and then navigate to the above location.
  3. Type : java –jar cf10_mdt_updt.jar and press Enter.
  4. Follow the online instructions to install the mandatory update. Once the Install is complete, then restart the ColdFusion 10 application service.
  5. Then you can go in the Server Update section and install the updates.

Regards,

Anit Kumar

The file I downloaded was downloaded with the following filename cf10_mdt_updt.zip.  I then ran an extract all and saved the extracted files to a folder called cf10_mdt_updt.  I then copied the folder with the extracted files to the following folder c:\ColdFusion10\jre\bin.  I then ran Command Prompt as Administrator and got the error message shown below.
