I wanted to give everyone an update on the status of our research into reported Linux and Unix stability issues with ColdFusion MX. Since releasing ColdFusion MX, our support and engineering teams have been working closely with a number of customers to identify and address problems they've experienced with Unix, Linux, and Apache. As a result of this research, we have uncovered some significant issues as well as published several fixes. Now, we want to make sure all customers are aware of them so they can benefit. We believe the changes indicated below will address the majority of the stability issues encountered by users with Linux/Unix and Apache. We continue to work with customers to research some remaining issues and will update you when we have more actionable information. In the meantime, we ask that any user running ColdFusion MX on Linux or Solaris take the following steps: 1) Apply Updater 2, available at: http://dynamic.macromedia.com/bin/MM/software/trial/hwswrec.jsp?product=cfmx_updater <http://dynamic.macromedia.com/bin/MM/software/trial/hwswrec.jsp?product=cfmx_updater> 2) Apply the recently released connector patches for Linux and Solaris (released after Updater 2). Download links and installation instructions are available at http://www.macromedia.com/v1/Handlers/index.cfm?ID=23524 <http://www.macromedia.com/v1/Handlers/index.cfm?ID=23524> 3) Change the settings in the jrun.xml file to the recommended settings detailed at: http://www.macromedia.com/v1/Handlers/index.cfm?ID=23524 <http://www.macromedia.com/v1/Handlers/index.cfm?ID=23524> 4) As always, try this first on a test server before deploying into production. Best, Philip Costa Sr. Product Manager, ColdFusion Macromedia [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
