@Oli, here is the link to installers http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=coldfusion
Regarding the 1st bullet in ReleaseNotes.pdf, I’d already verified the following were fixed in the previous refresh (11,0,03,292245(PreRelease)): 3849151,3849267,3849389,3849494,3851922
Not sure why ReleaseNotes.pdf says those fixes were introduced in 11,0,03,292480.
Thanks!,

A curious bug I am finding in both CF11 PR3 (DEV) and CF10 (PROD) is for example:
Do this
Fails. Usually if MyQuery has no records then obviously RecordCount does not exist and code is ignored. But sometimes it throws a MyQuery.RecordCount does not exist error. Weird!
I updated the code from this:
Do this
To this:
Do this
Or similar. Code is on work machine.
And so far so good… Any ideas?
@Carl: Thanks Carl for pointing that out. I have updated the post.
@Andrew: We have given the reference to the previous post where installation instructions are given and we have already provided an option in the ColdFusion administrator to restore the default update URL using which user can easily switch it back to the default URL.
We are also considering which you suggested in the previous post but it might take sometime to roll out those changes. We are internally discussing the same.
If anyone runs into the issue I mentioned above (which I’m probably the only one “brave” enough to install the update), you’ll have to manually download and install the hotfix. Just download:
http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/coldfusion/PR/11/hotfix_003.jar
and run:
sudo java -jar hotfix_003.jar
The hotfix link was taken from the previous “refresh” post, but after installing appears to be build 11,0,03,292480
Crap, re-applied PR update and now I’m dead in the water with the error:

This post, reflects the care given to the language itself.
Piss poor.
In one post you get people to change the update URL, then yo make the assumption that people would know how to switch that back. And here we are with a blog post that assumes that they even know the URL to switch it back too.
Adobe this is really poor, why you have to release things that people have to do manually with no or very little details is beyond all logic.
For god sake, fix it it so there is what I suggested on your previous post. Where one can select the alpha/beta or preview updates and check then out or roll them back at the click of a button. Not all this manual crap.
Adobe this is the 21st century, not 1970!!
