Stack Overflow Error

[Guest]

I have installed the CF 8.0.1 update to my server running win 2003 64-bit. I'm still receiving the Stack Overflow Error. I tried to increase the stack size but when I go over the max limit for the old 32 bit version (1400m), CF will not start. I have three questions:
1. How do I check if CF is running in 64-bit? CF admin just tells me the version is now 8.0.1.
2. Does IIS need to run also on 64-bit?
2. How do I increase the stack size?

Thanks for your help!

Ok, you have applied the hotfix, but have you tried to reinstall your webserver connectors?

To answer your questions -

1. 'How do I check if CF is running in 64-bit? CF admin just tells me the version is now 8.0.1.'

I don't think there is a way to tell if CF is running 32 of 64 bit (someone correct me here)... frankly, it doesn't matter from a CF perspective (this is purely my opinion folks 🙂 ); its more on the connectors to the webserver, and the memory allocation within the JRE. Read this blog from Master Steve - http://www.talkingtree.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/8/29/CF8-Performance-64-bit

2. Does IIS need to run also on 64-bit?

No. If you're using 32-bit, then use the 32-bit cononectors. Same with 64-bit (using wsconfig for 64-bit).

3. How do I increase the stack size?

I think its the -Xss option. This link might help - http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=649476&messageID=10055131

Thanks speedpedal for your reply. I did reinstall my webserver connector but still have the same error. May be I'm doing something wrong re-installing the web connector. I'll google a link to compare. Thx! If you have any link on re-installing web-connector for windoows, please share. Thx!

Let me ask a more specific question. I deleted all the web connectors and run the wizard to re-install them. How do I specify that it would run in 64-bit? Thx for your help!

Do you have standard or enterprise? ColdFusion Standard edition runs only in 32-bit mode - http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/coldfusion/801/cf801releasenotes.pdf

I have the Enterprise Edition.

Have you tried this -

- locate and open IIS_connector.bat
- append the "-ws64" switch in the wsconfig command line which should look like
'%CFUSION_HOME%\runtime\bin\wsconfig -server coldfusion -ws IIS -site 0 -coldfusion -cfwebroot -ws64'

The Processes tab in Task Manager on Windows x64 will show *32 after the process name if it's running in 32 bit mode.

So if you see "jrun.exe *32" it's most likely in 32 bit mode.
