I just noticed a ticket with a similar issue although the fix did not work for me, but I will repost here https://community.adobe.com/t5/coldfusion/coldfusion-2016-update-17-getting-500-error-after-installing-when-using-elvis-operator/m-p/11921655 I just updated CF2016 from update 16 to update 17 and it's crashing my queries with a 500 error. I performed the same update on my developer edition and it works fine. I've checked all of the settings including the version of JVM and everything appears to be identical. The problem appears to be in CFQUERYPARAM, but not all of them. This WHERE for example will cause the 500 error WHERE enduser_uid = <cfqueryparam value="#GetEnduser.enduser_uid#" cfsqltype="CF_SQL_INT"> I tried to replace the #GetEnduser.enduser_uid# with a hardcoded value, it still crashed, but when I removed the cfqueryparam and used WHERE enduser_uid = 123456 the query works. These all worked fine before the update, plus with having two systems the dev and prod and only one doing this, I'm at a bit of a loss. Any ideas anybody?

Thanks for letting me know, I also received my notification as well I'll be updating in a few days. Anybody have any idea if this impacts the highest version of JRE that we can use?

Thanks for the answers, not what I was hoping to hear, but at least I now know not to expect updates, hopefully there will be as Charlie mentioned, possibly one last one that was in the works before the end date hit.

I am still on update 16 (CF2016) which was released on 14th July 2020, 8 months ago. I'm wondering if anybody has any idea when the next update might be released?

Wondering if there is any news up any potential to support higher versions of the JDK on CF2016? (I am currently on 11 still) Looking at the next LTS ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_version_history ) it looks like the next LTS is going to be in September 2021, so maybe there is no interest in supporting higher than 11 until 17 with LTS is released.

Does anybody know where I would be able to find the update schedule for ColdFusion 2016. I am on update 16, and that was installed in July 2020, so 6 months. Thanks Mark

I may have found the problem, I see Charlie talked about the same issue https://community.adobe.com/t5/coldfusion/coldfusion-server-cf-2016-suddenly-will-not-start/td-p/9015779?page=1 My neo-security is indeed empty, so something must be corrupt, maybe the countless blue screens and hard shut downs that I had to make corrupted something. I'm going to pull a saved image of the computer from a backup drive and reimage it, then update, I think it'll be quicker!

My CF2016 developer edition has decided it does not want to start (on Windows 10). I did do some MS Updates over the past few days but it did't stop immediately. I am not sure if it's related to the updated, but after I did them I started to get blue screens (thanks MS), which I fixed by removing Skype, put Skype back on and no more blue screens (yet). Nothing else has changed. This takes me to Windows version 2004 Build 19041.508 I took a look at this post (although I have enough memory), and tried a manual start https://community.adobe.com/t5/coldfusion/windows-could-not-start-the-coldfusion-2016-application-server-on-local-computer/td-p/9711733?page=1 This is the result PS C:\coldfusion2016\cfusion\bin> .\cfstart Oct 02, 2020 10:52:04 AM org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener lifecycleEvent INFO: The APR based Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal performance in production environments was not found on the java.library.path: [C:\ColdFusion2016\cfusion\lib;C:\ColdFusion2016\cfusion\jintegra\bin;C:\ColdFusion2016\cfusion\jintegra\bin\international;C:\ColdFusion2016\cfusion\lib\oosdk\classes\win;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.7\bin] Oct 02, 2020 10:52:04 AM org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol init INFO: Initializing ProtocolHandler ["http-nio-8500"] Oct 02, 2020 10:52:05 AM org.apache.tomcat.util.net.NioSelectorPool getSharedSelector INFO: Using a shared selector for servlet write/read Oct 02, 2020 10:52:05 AM org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol init INFO: Initializing ProtocolHandler ["ajp-nio-127.0.0.1-8016"] Oct 02, 2020 10:52:05 AM org.apache.tomcat.util.net.NioSelectorPool getSharedSelector INFO: Using a shared selector for servlet write/read Oct 02, 2020 10:52:05 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService startInternal INFO: Starting service [Catalina] Oct 02, 2020 10:52:05 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine startInternal INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/8.5.42 Oct 02, 2020 10:52:08 AM org.apache.jasper.servlet.TldScanner scanJars INFO: At least one JAR was scanned for TLDs yet contained no TLDs.

Thanks for the blog post Charlie, much appreciated. OK, I get it now, it was not so much related to files created by that particular upgrade, but just about the useage of the CAR file and how they can be easily exploited. I like to keep a copy should I ever have to reinstall the server, it's good to have all of the settings saved and easily reimported. I have mine in a secure ZIP file, on a bitlockered drive, so I think I'm in good shape. Good point on the transfer though, making sure that SFTP is used to avoid any interception.

I marked the thread as the answer because it had all three options in there, the top two of course being the better options. Mine was just another way of doing it. My list is not huge so it would have also done the trick (for me), I didn't use my option I went with one of the others.

Thanks @BKBK and @WolfShade. Both options work 🙂 I'm not sure which one is the most efficient, I'll have to flip a coin. I did actually just come up with something most likely a little less efficient, I created a query in memory, added the data from myfixedlist and then did a query using NOT IN, it also worked, but I suspect your options are better. I put it in here anyway as option 3. OPTION 1 <cfscript> myfixedlist="7,8,9"; variablelist = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,10"; listDiff = listFilter(myfixedlist,function(item){ return listFind(variablelist,item,",") == 0; }); </cfscript> <cfoutput>#listDiff#</cfoutput> OPTION 2 <cfset myFixedList = "7,8,9" /> <cfset myVarList = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,10" /> <cfset myNOTlist = "" /> <cfscript> function getNotInFixed(item){ if(NOT ListFind(myVarList,item)){myNOTlist = ListAppend(myNOTlist,item);} } myMap = ListMap(myFixedList,getNotInFixed); WriteOutput(myNOTlist); </cfscript> OPTION 3 (VariableList would be set elsewhere in the code) <cfset MyFixedList = QueryNew("MyFixedListUID")> <cfset QueryAddRow(MyFixedList,3)> <cfset Temp = QuerySetCell(MyFixedList, "MyFixedListUID","7","1")> <cfset Temp = QuerySetCell(MyFixedList, "MyFixedListUID","8","2")> <cfset Temp = QuerySetCell(MyFixedList, "MyFixedListUID","9","3")> <CFQUERY DBTYPE="query" NAME="GetNewList"> SELECT MyFixedListUID FROM MyFixedList WHERE MyFixedListUID NOT IN (<cfqueryparam value="#VariableList#" list="yes">) </CFQUERY>

Fixed! I used the fix from Jamo (Thanks Jamo) By adding the CFTRY and CFCATCH I no longer have a record in the logs, so now I'll be able to find the true errors in the log file. Btw: I realized this was not caused by spiders because any legit request for the download was also creating a log record. So here's what cured the problem. I'm not sure of the mechanics as I have not really done much with CFTRY and CFCATCH, but it definately works <cftry> <cfcontent type="application/unknown" file="#downloadlocation#\toolbox.exe" /> <cfcatch><!--- log, etc --->Aborted<cfabort></cfcatch> </cftry>

@dave watts - I'd rather stop them going in there in the first place (if I can). I'm going to study the code from Jamo https://dev.to/gamesover/using-try-catch-to-suppress-aborted-download-errors-3j42 to see if it's something I can apply. @jamo The code has actually been working flawlessly for about 7 years, so I'm not coverly concerned about any problems within the code. I'll go over the solution you posted with a CFCatch and see if it's something I could implement to catch and stop these logs.

Hi Charlie, Agreed on user agent, I would not be optomistic that would stop the issue It does support sessions, I could easily check for the cookies, nice solution that is easy to implement. Here's a link to the page https://www.hiddentoolbox.com/download.cfm once you click on the download link at the top, it'll go to download2.cfm which also triggers downloadfile.cfm (this page creates a unique file name.exe so that the software can read the file name and build in some affiliate tracking, also triggering the download, and at the same time giving the user instructions relevant to their browser) It's likely a spider is triggering the page and that triggers the code to start the EXE which the spider does not hold a connection for. If the cookies are not present I could stop the code from triggering.

Wondering if anybody ever found a solution to this? I am running ColdFusion 2016 Update 13 and I'm still seeing this issue. I understand that it's not actually a 'real' failure and our site works just fine, but the problem is that it creates a lot of noise in the CF exception log file, making it difficult to weed out other real issues. My guess is this might be search engines spidering the site and rapidly disconnecting before downloading the whole exe, as the exe is triggered on the loading of the page. My only option will be to change the page so there's a manual link to the exe rather than an automatic trigger.

I can't disagree with that, I was tempted to leave it, but my need to keep things neat and tidy also got the better of me

My impatience didn't paid off. As soon as I received the link to JDK 12 I jumped on it. whoops. Back to 11 I go 🙂

Thanks for the clarification Charlie. Now I wish I had waited for a response here until I upgraded to 12. Looks like I'll have to revert back to 11 which I just uninstalled 😞

Thanks. If JDK 12 is no longer supported or updated by Oracle I guess that the 12.0.2 version on Adobe's site using the link above is the last version and we'll not be able to get any security updates until it's made compatible with the current and supported version JDK 13 Has anybody tried JDK13 to see if things go horribly wrong?

I presume from the recent update of ColdFusion 2016 (Update 12) that JDK 12 is the highest version I can go to. The problem is that when I search on Oracle it's saying 12 is no longer supported and to go to 13 Does anyboy have a link to 12? The Oracle download page goes from 13 down to 11, no 12 showing https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html Has anybody tried 13?
