Forgive my naivety, but I can't get past step 1, and to be honest, I have no idea what step 1 is referencing either.

I keep getting "'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command..."

How do I update ColdFusion with the mandatory update???

Hello Seedingideas,

Thank you for your post. Here is the link http://download.macromedia.com/pub/coldfusion/10/cf10_mdt_updt.jar to download the Mandatory update.

To install the same:-

Open the command prompt.

cd to C:\ColdFusion10 and then run the command as follows C:\ColdFusion10\jre\bin\jre\java -jar cf10_mdt_updt.jar

Give full path of the file cf10_mdt_updt.jar depending on where it is downloaded. And follow the on-screen instructions.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Anit Kumar

On Windows, it's also a good idea to open the command prompt "As Administrator" to run the updater.

This seemed to work...

cd C:\ColdFusion10\jre\bin\

java -jar C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\hf-updates\[file_name].jar
