Would there be anything in the license agreement that says you can not use the trial period for production?

Yes it would work. Download and install the CF8 Trial, install as 30 day not developer, which means you get full features. When CF8 is released (safe bet for 30 days) backup your settings in a CAR then Uninstall CF7 Install CF8 Restore your settings. An upgrade might work also, but I couldn't tell you yet, the above method will definitely work. I really don't know why Adobe are playing these games, just hurting sales I would have thought. Why announce Launch Parties and not announce Release and Pricing.

Hi guys, I'm in the unfortunate position where I HAVE to get a license of ColdFusion on a server by Monday at the latest. Of course I'm waiting for 8 like everyone else, I called Adobe and they said although they have 'free upgrades' to other Adobe software (like creative suite CS3) they haven't heard anything about ColdFusion. I've read mentioned (and thought about it myself) installing the trial version of CFMX 7 Standard on a production server then upgrade to 8. Providing v8 was out within 30 days would this actually work? Would you need a fresh uninstall/re-install? Just trying to figure out options and possible downtime etc. On Jul 26, 11:16 am, "Barry Beattie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > that's a fair point, Andrew.
