Running CF as a domain Account – New Server

I know I had to add the AD user account to something on the server to make it run CF, but I don’t remember what it was. Any hints?

How to Bypass Gatekeeper While Installing ColdFusion on macOS

One might see the following error: Allowing Java in Privacy & Security under the System Settings may not help, and you may have to bypass Gatekeeper and run the ColdFusion installer manually. You can remove Gatekeeper’s quarantine flag using the following command: sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine ‘ColdFusion 2025 Installer.app’ This removes […]

ColdFusion Out Of Memory

I wanted to get technical input on something related to our ColdFusion setup. We’ve configured 20 ColdFusion instances on one server, and each instance has a Java max heap size of 4500 MB. Now, let’s say each of these instances tries to generate a PDF file that’s around 5000 MB—so larger than the configured heap size. Would this scenario lead to an out-of-memory issue? Just to add, the host machine has 93 GB of RAM. Appreciate your thoughts on this!

Very strange form behavior

We use Dailyrazor as our web host. Over the past couple of days our CFM forms have been acting strange. Every time a form is submitted it now has a JS header forwarding the browser to a site in Japan. None of the form is processed. Our host was hacked a couple of weeks ago – I’m wondering if the CF install was hijacked/corrupted? Or am I just missing something simple? Here is an example page:https://skicmsc.com/_contact_include.html Submit the form and […]
