ColdFusion (2021 release) Update 12 breaks our applications
Has anyone added patch ColdFusion (2021 release) Update 12 and broken their server? Added the patch this morning and now none of applications work. You get a first page, but they won’t work beyond that. No errors no logging, no clue!

In a test environment running CF23, I installed update 7 yesterday. Today the site wouldn’t load certain pages that rely on URL called without the scoped “URL” parameters to run.
For this example, our code was calling for a url parameter such as oursite.com/pagename?param=123, calling for that param directly by the name “param” rather than “url.param”
This is going to be a big deal to get all our code up to date for the latest version so I added the JVM Arg “-Dcoldfusion.searchimplicitscopes=true” in CFAdmin, for the sake of keeping it running until we can prioritize a code update. However, be aware this isn’t the most secure option and may not be available in future releases.
I applied Update 12 last 12/23 on several Windows servers and had no issues. I did it as an offline manual install though. Not thru the Administrator screen.
