The year 2017 was very “generous” with conferences about ColdFusion. If we take a look how many of them were, plus webinars and other online resources, we can say it’s the best so far. And to think that a year or two back, people were asking “is ColdFusion dead?” Muracon 2017 Adobe ColdFusion Government Summit IntoTheBox 2017 ColdFusion Conference cf.Objective 2017 NCDevCon CFCamp 2017 Adobe ColdFusion Summit 2017 ColdFusion webinars Confirmed conferences for 2018 Confirmed conferences for 2018 So far […]
Adobe has no official plug in for ColdFusion in other code editors like Sublime, VSC, Atom, and Brackets. This should change.

I have seen a lot more people asking questions about making SFTP or FTPS secure connections from ColdFusion using the <CFFTP> tag. They are trying to figure out why they cannot make a connection. Often the error is “Algorithm negotiation fail” or “Connection Error”. People are posting their questions on many support forums including Adobes forums and their new ColdFusion Community Portal. This is a problem people are experiencing in ColdFusion 10 and ColdFusion 11. In the last few years […]
Recently at my organization, we have decided to step out in a bold new direction and completely revamp all of our web applications. With the introduction of the Adobe API Manager and our desire to shift resource consumption from the server to the client, we have quite a bit of work in front of us. This will be the beginning of a series chronicling our experience as we implement the project from its very beginning until we deliver the final […]
This is something that might not come up often, but every once in a while we have to connect to a Sybase database. This is a built in feature in the Enterprise version of ColdFusion. However, if you have the Standard version of ColdFusion you have to manually add the JDBC jar file and build the connection string by hand. This is easy to do once you have the correct information and correct format of the connection string. Finding that […]
So i was upgrading from ColdFusion 11 to ColdFusion 2016 yesterday. Everything goes fairly smoothly and then i find that none of my data sources are connecting. I’m getting a licensing error connecting to my Oracle databases. Seems that ColdFusion 2016 standard does not include the Oracle driver, I have to have enterprise for that. Yes, it’s on me that I should have checked for this but I didn’t because in every other version of standard I’ve used the Oracle […]
At CF Webtools we have been preparing for this inevitable day for the past few years. We’ve been upgrading our clients servers and services to handle TLS 1.2 calls to Authorize.Net and other third party processors for a while now. Recently Authorize.Net announced a “Temporary Disablement of TLS 1.0/1.1” for “a few hours on January 30, 2018 and then again on February 8, 2018.” This is in preparation for the final disablement of TLS1.0/1.1 on February 28, 2018. As you […]

ColdFusion documentation has had an interesting journey over the last few years. From a wiki-based approach to an Adobe-unified approach, the docs have come a long way and are ever evolving. Today, we have launched a unified and one-stop destination for all things docs. We have revamped the docs site and made it more centralized. Visit the new and improved ColdFusion User Guide (https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/user-guide.html). The new layout is user-friendly and makes navigation easier.

ColdFusion, or CF, is a particularly rapid web app development platform which comes with a range of different advantages. This is the main reason for which it’s preferred – because it is able to deliver particularly high performance, regardless of the used language. It fits incredibly well into the powerful and potent systems of the server and websites which are using this particular platform could be potentially integrated within varying databases. With over 20 years of experience in using ColdFusion, […]
