"Monitoring Service not available" after running Update 11 of CF 2016

Hello!

I am getting the following error when trying to run ColdFusion 2016 after trying to apply Update 11:

I have followed several steps to try and uninstall and re-install the patch (hf-2016-00011-314546 is the patch).   Any help would be greatly appreciated as our site (and clients) are all down.

Thanks!

I tried again to uninstall the hotfix and now get the following message with the following command:

C:\Adobe\ColdFusion\2016\jre\bin\java -jar C:\Adobe\ColdFusion\2016\cfusion\hf-updates\hf-2016-00011-314546\uninstall\uninstall.jar

"You can't uninstall this hotfix.  Uninstall the latest hotfix applied to uninstall this."

Have you run the steps I outline here:

Thanks for the response.  We ended up reverting the server back to a previous VM snapsot and will schedule another update this weekend which I will perform manually.

I'll keep this link handy in the event that we have any issues.

Assuming all goes well, I'll come back and mark this post as "answered."
