Installation considerations
This section lists considerations for installing or upgrading to ColdFusion MX 6.1.

Installation considerations for all platforms
The following are installation considerations for all platforms:
•
Macromedia supports upgrading to ColdFusion MX 6.1 from ColdFusion MX (the
installation functions as an updater), ColdFusion 4.5, and ColdFusion 5. If you are upgrading,
you must back up your existing ColdFusion applications first.
•
If you have previously installed a Beta version of ColdFusion MX 6.1, you must uninstall it
before you install the release version.
•
Macromedia recommends using the built-in (internal port-based) web server for development,
but not in a production environment.
•
If you have ColdFusion 4.5 or 5 installed on your computer, you can upgrade to ColdFusion
MX (which disables ColdFusion 4.5 or 5), or you can install ColdFusion MX separately, in co-
exist mode. If you install ColdFusion MX separately, your ColdFusion 5 installation remains
the same and ColdFusion MX installs with its built-in web server. This is because ColdFusion
MX and ColdFusion 5 cannot use the same web server.
