Required operating system settings
The following list includes patches that must be installed, kernel settings that must
be configured, and general issues to consider before installing ColdFusion Server 5:
Upgrading from a previous version
The ColdFusion Server installation automatically upgrades previous versions of
ColdFusion Server for HP-UX 11.0.
However, to continue to use VisiBroker for CORBA connections in ColdFusion Server
5, copy the libraries bundled with ColdFusion Server 4.5.1 into the appropriate
directory. If you uninstall a previous release of ColdFusion Server before installing
ColdFusion Server 5, these libraries are removed from your system. Before the
uninstall, copy the libraries to a safe location.
