How to solve a problem that may not be obvious: the CFML image tags and functions that accept a URL won’t follow a redirect, but instead fail with this cryptic error.
Even though Adobe just added support for Java 12 to CF2018 and CF2016, I will propose you should not use that, but instead should use the latest version of Java 11. Read on for more.

Wow, I just noticed some news today, Sep 3, which–to me–is tragic. (This is about the CF Forums, though, not this CF portal where you are reading this.) If you visit the front page of any of the Adobe CF forums or subforums (like for CF Administration), as well as several other non-ColdFusion Adobe forums, you will see a message stating that: We are excited to announce we will be delivering a modern community experience to you in the very near […]
Don’t let your error handling “run around naked”: why you should be sure to log errors in your error handling.
I share here some very compelling quotes from Adobe’s Director of Engineering for CF, Ashish Garg, on important planned improvements regarding deployment of CF to the cloud and containers. Evolving what exists already today, they plan to solve several key challenges, from licensing, to modularity, to configuration, and more.
Find a quick overview of the key changes in each update in this one release notes page, one for CF2018 and one for CF2016. And if you maybe haven’t been keeping up on CF updates, find out still more about them in this post.

Did you know you can file bug reports or feature requests not only against CF or CFBuilder, but also for things related to CF like the CF docs, the CF2018 PMT, the CF Docker images, the API Manager, the CFFiddle.org site, and even Tracker itself? Read on.
If you see multiple available updates in the CF Admin “server updates” UI, you need only apply the latest (if it’s what you want). You can “skip” the others, though note that you should study their technotes for what they added.
Have you ever found that calls to web services from CF suddenly fail? when nothing has changed on your end? (No change of your CF version, no change of CF admin settings, nor any change regarding SSL/TLS on the host–all of which can cause their own problems.) What may have happened is that the owner of the web service may have changed something about their definition of that web service (in terms of methods or properties or return types). And […]
If you’re getting errors in calling out to https urls from CF, especially if it was working and now is not, you may NOT need to import a certificate, nor modify any jvm args. You may simply need to update the JVM that CF uses, as discussed in this post.
