Upgrade JDK version ColdFusion Server Updated
I’ve been a CFML developer for a long time, as have a lot of you. But everyone can always learn something new. There’s also a new generation of devs hungry for resources to learn about CMFL, figure out how to move over their existing knowledge, or just get certified as they search for their first ColdFusion position. I get a lot of questions about where to go for CFML knowledge, so I thought I might compile a few things here, […]
I am attempting to migrate a CF10 application to CF2018 that uses a CFLDAP call to an Active Directory server and is experiencing failures. We have already used keytool to import the AD server certificate and verified via keytool -list. In addition, we can telnet to <ip address>:636 and connect via openssl s_client -connect <ip address>:636. We use security: CFSSL_BASIC, port 636, and are getting this error on the LDAP call: Detail: One or more of the required attributes may […]

The new certification process entails about 20 hours of 50+ recorded videos and exam prep materials, in addition to the exam. It was first rolled out at […]
Cannot send JSON to server due to communication issues – I believe it the Java security certificate
This is one of the most common error when it comes to make calls to https url’s with <cfhttp. A lot of articles are out there explaining how to install SSL certificate with keytool. But again its not very easy for everyone to understand. Best way to do it is using certman (CF admin) plugin, which was available on https://certman.riaforge.org/ but since its been taken down it was no where to be found. I recently found it in https://github.com/cfmaniac GIT repo […]
