Hi, I administrate a few ColdFusion 2023 servers on windows. I must perform an off-line update whenever a new update comes out. I carry out these steps: 1) Download new hotfix and packages from Adobe Website 2) copy these files into the Bundles directory of ColdFusion 3) run the java -java hotfix_xxxx.jar 4) the installation states it was successful but everytime there are packages that are missing and not installed. These new packages files were definitely included in the bundles […]

Hello, Are there any code examples for setting up the Google Sign In button on my website? I’ve looked around, but there’s not that much recent information on how to process the auth code that Google sends to my redirect page, then send a request back to Google for the user info. Thanks, Pete
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. Pete
We need to be able to isntall Cold Fusion and its hotfixes as a user other than root, What access does that user need to have in order to do that?
Hello, I’m having a hard time integrating the Google Login Button on my website, using the redirect method. I got the Javascript way to work, but it seems very insecure. I’m interested in fetching user credentials from Google, then storing into a database for further use, and also tracking sessions. For that reason, I’m going for the redirect method, but there’s not much documentation out there with ColdFusion. Thanks, Pete
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.
