CFEXECUTE

Hey Guys, I was wanting to know if you all ever had this issue?  I created a .NET application that will convert an RTF to a PDF but if I Launch the EXE (as an administrator)   on the server it runs as designed, however when I run it via the CF webserver using CFEXECUTE the application won’t launch. Is there a security setting somewhere that I am not seeing.  The application I created has the “Run as administrator” checked for […]

CF 2018 ckeditor 4 erases or disallows styles

We recently transferred an application from a server with CF11 with FCKeditor 2.6.4 to CF 2018 with CKeditor 4. Everything seems to be perfect except for one thing.
