Webmaster Forum / ColdFusion / Server Administration / September 2008

I am running CF8 virtual server on a PC.  My C: drive, where ColdFusion is
located seems to have no storage space left.  I went from having 200GB of free
space to 127mb in a week!!!
When I looked at my wwwroot directory, where my client files are located,

So I've downloaded the 8.0.1 update for Linux and Windows.  The windows version
is an installer but the linux version is just a zip file with no instructions??
I've been running CF on both Windows and Linux for six years and the Linux
updaters were always executable .bin files.  ...

Anyone know how to apply the 8.0.1 patch for Linux?  There are no
instructions and it is not an installer like the windows patch.  This is
very frustrating and after running Coldfusion since verion 4.5 on Linux,
for the first time I don't know how to apply a patch?

I administer several Cold Fusion servers, most are at 8.0.1. A developer
pointed me to a fix for a problem she was experiencing. That page is at
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb403411 The title is "Patch for CFImage and Image
functions in ColdFusion 8.0.1". The text repeatedly refers ...

We have CF 6.x installed and I do not know what version is the macromedia_drivers.jar file......Is there a way to determine the version of the macromedia_drivers.jar file ?

I have a MS SQL Server 2005 database that uses my Windows Authenication
credentials for logon.  When I go to setup the DataSource within the ColdFusion
Administrator, I receive an error after entering in the Database name and
Server name.  I leave the Username and Password field ...

We are running CF 8,0,0,176276   on a Windows 32 bit 2003 server, with IIS 6
and Java Runtime version 6 ( it's really version 1.06).
We started getting the java heap error messages two weeks ago. Now we are also
getting the 'GC overhead limit exceeded' error, which is concerned ...

By now, you're familiar with the SQL Injection attacks floatin' around out
there, but what has me puzzled is how my ColdFusion servers are responding to
them.  For each SQL Injection attempt, CF throws an application error; this is
from my APPLICATION.LOG:

For the past couple years our Cold Fusion 8  sites (working with Databases) on
Windows 2003 goes down alot.  It seems the System Admins have to reboot Cold
Fusion to get it back up about 2 or 3 times a week.   They are not sure what is
causing it to go down but think it might be ...

How can I backup coldfusion mx7 configuration and data sources?

I'm trying to set up two servers - one CF 8 server and one IIS 7 server.  What
needs to be installed on the IIS 7 server so that I can run the web server
configuration on the CF8 box and get them to start working together.  Any help
or URLs greatly appreciated.

Here's where I stand right now:
If I visit the URL I'm about to give you using ANY browser on my Mac, I can
see it just fine (and can test this by updating the files and reloading it on
the Mac just in case it was cached).

The CFMAIL won't include the fully qualified domain name (FQDN).
I found Knowledge Base article kb400753 at http://www.adobe.com/go/kb400753 
and added
-Dmail.host=server-name.domain-name.com to the JVM Arguments section, as

I have a ton of mail in the undeliverable folder and nothing is going out.
Any ideas?

Our agency just spend a boatload of money upgrading to CF8 Enterprise (on
multiple servers), and I cannot seem to get the Server Monitor application

correct, I have Flash 9, but I keep getting ...
