Ajas, I think there's an important explanation for what you're seeing, that
you may not be considering.

First, as Troy has said, yes, the installer does not change based on Std,
Ent, Trial, or Dev. The one installer does ask during installation which of
those you want.

But second, as for the size difference you see, there may be a very
important explanation for that. (Even if you know this, I'll share it as
much for others as it's a source of frequent confusion.) 

Note that the CF9 installer you would download today from the Adobe site,
which has been there since May of 2012, is NOT 9.0 (as it was for 2-3 years
prior)-it is 9.0.2, which is (like 9.0) a full installer. It includes
9.0+9.0.1 but lacks Verity (the main reason for its creation), and it also
includes all the hfs available as of its release in May 2012. (You still
need to add more updates, as I'll discuss in a moment.)

While Adobe did (some months ago) change the site
(http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html#cf9) to more
clearly indicate on the page that the "CF9 installer" is a 9.0.2 installer,
they did not change the filename to so clearly indicate this.  The current
902 download filename (on that page I just mentioned) is
ColdFusion_9_WWEJ_win64.exe. You mention the "old" one you see as being
ColdFusion_9_WWE_win64.exe, and I do think that was the "9.0" installer
filename. Is the "new" one you're comparing the same name? or the one with
WWEJ that I just mentioned? If so, that's the difference.

Also, be careful too then NOT to download and install over that the
still-available 9.0.1 updater. That is for updating a 9.0 install. If you
run it atop a 9.0.2, it will not warn you (it was built before 9.0.2 came
out so is not aware of it), and it will break your CF installation.

Finally, just as all releases of CF, note that the 9.0.2 installer offered
there is not "the latest". There are HFs available for that since its
release. (To those who might complain about that, note that it's hard for
Adobe to build a new installer for a release, given all the permutations of
supported platforms and related tools like DBs and web servers, so they
build new installers only on major updates or new releases.)

I believe that is correct. The installer handles all versions.

Thank you,

Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] CF 9 64 bit installer file

Hi,

Just checking if the installer available on adobe's site for CF 9 64 bit
would work with Enterprise license.

I downloaded one earlier named ColdFusion_9_WWE_win64.exe which is 443,876KB
in size and was wondering if the installer is same for standard and
enterprise or even developer and the license key would trigger the actual
type of installation i.e. standard license vs enterprise license.
