deletion of package files during an off-line ColdFusion 2023 update problem

Adding Google Log in Button with ColdFusion

Hello, I’m trying to add the Google log in button to my website, but there’s not much information out there about how to process the server side redirect page in ColdFusion, basically receiving the auth code and then sending another request to Google with ClientID and Secret Key included, in order to return Google user info.  I found a blog from about 10 years back, but I’m hoping someone might have a more recent example, with some code snippets.

CFMAIL stopped working after CF21 Update 21

CFMAIL has been working up until update 21 and now I receive this error when an email is trying to be sent. I have updated the JVM to the latest version supported for CF21 as well to see if that resolved the issue, but it doesn’t. This is CF21 Update 21 running on Server 2019.  Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
