Removing a server in ColdFusion Builder

Report · Dec 02, 2009

This may be a rather simple question, but why is it when I "delete server" in the "server" window, the server disappears until I restart ColdFusion Builder. I can't for the life of me get the "delete" to stick. The same server keeps coming back up on startup.

I'm running Beta 2 on OS X (10.6.2)

Hi,

I am not able to see this issue. I can successfully delete a server and on relaunching Bolt I dont see it in the list.

Could you check if your workspace has enough permissions, because if you don't then this could be the reason.

Ryan -

I had the same problem the other evening. DROVE ME NUTS! I even uninstalled CF Builder and then reinstalled. The server was still there! What I did to remedy it, however, was fairly drastic. I removed CF Builder. I then went in with Internet Explorer and hand-deleted the CF Builder directory. I then went throughout my entire User profile in Windows (under C:\Documents and Settings\{username}). I deleted every directory I could find (most notably in the "Application Data" and "Local Settings" folders) which related to Adobe ColdFusion Builder or Eclipse (as CF Builder is built from Eclipse).

I looked through my Windows Registry too, but I can't remember now if I found and/or deleted anything in there. I think I did, but it was on one of my previous attempts at getting rid of the server before I finally started hand-deleting folders which I described above. Either way, messing with the Registry is dangerous and did not produce any results because the server kept reappearing.

So anyway - after clearing out the "Application Data" and "Local Settings" folders of CF Builder and Eclipse files and directories, I rebooted, reinstalled CF Builder and no more server reappearing!

Hope this helps a little...
