CONFIGURING AND ADMINISTERING COLDFUSION 10
Using the ColdFusion Administrator
The Updates page has the following options:
• Available updates: Click Check for Updates to see if any updates are available for installation.
With ColdFusion 10, you can receive a notification when a new hot fix is available for download by subscribing to
RSS feeds using the following URL:
www.adobe.com/go/coldfusion-updates
For a multi-server setup, when you apply the updates from the main instance, you have option to select all local
instances to which you may opt to apply hot fix. By default, update applies only to the main instance.
If you apply the updates from a newly created local instance, the hot fix is applied only to that specific instance. You
have to apply the hot fix to other instances from the main instance or individually from each instance. Before the
update, the main ColdFusion instance automatically stops. But you have to manually stop all other instances (for
which you want to apply the updates).
• Download: Downloads and places the file in <cf_home>/hf-updates/ for later installation. For details, see
"Download hot fix for later
• Download and install: Downloads the hot fix and performs a silent installation.
Note: This option does not apply to J2EE installations. Also, in the case of multi-server installations, you have to
select the server on which you want to install the hot fix.
• Installed updates: Lists all updates to ColdFusion 10 that you have installed. For multi-server setup, it shows the
list of updates to the instance to which you have logged in from the ColdFusion Administrator.
Use the option Uninstall to remove the installed hot fix (if needed).
• Settings: Provides options to specify update preferences such as update notifications or if to automatically check
for updates.
If you have set up a local update site, you can also specify URL of that site to get updates.
To do this, populate the updates.xml (see the following sample) and then update the URL in the Administrator
(Server Update > Updates > Settings > Update Site > Site URL). For example, http://IP
Address:Port/updates/updates.xml.
The following is a sample updates.xml:
