Before you "Go Get It", I'd strongly encourage you to go through the Allaire
Beta program to register for it and AT LEAST read the release notes at
http://beta.allaire.com/betadocs/coldfusion50b1/releasenotes.htm. At this
stage of the Beta, a few things are critical to note (from the release
notes):
* Before installing this release, it's very important that any previous
versions of ColdFusion or Allaire ClusterCATS (clustering and load
balancing) have been removed.
* ColdFusion Server 5.0 Beta 1 on Linux may crash on Linux servers with two
or more processors. This limitation will be addressed in the next beta
release.
* To access the new ColdFusion 5.0 logging functionality, you need to delete
or rename your existing log files. On Windows NT, by default log files are
stored in cfusion\log. For all other environments, ColdFusion log files are
stored by default in /opt/coldfusion/log.
* Advanced Security is NOT supported in Beta 1. As a result, do not install
this release of ColdFusion on a system running Allaire Spectra.
* Currently, the High Availability Controls are only supported on Microsoft
IIS and Netscape Enterprise Server. This restriction will be removed for
Beta 2.
* Informix ODBC and Native does not work on Solaris and Linux
