ColdFusion MX 7.0.1 Updater replaces security.properties file with default settingsProducts affected
Issue
After installing the ColdFusion MX 7.0.1 Updater, you may find problems with communication between remote ColdFusion MX servers. You may also find you can no longer use the webserver configuration tool (wsconfig) to connect to a remote server.
For example, the ColdFusion MX Instance Manager may report "network error" in the Cluster column, while the Server Directory and HTTP Port columns are blank.
When attempting to run wsconfig to connect to a remote server, you may see the error:
JRun server {CFMX7 server} cannot be found on host {host} Confirm that JRun server {host} is started.
Reason
The ColdFusion MX 7.0.1 Updater causes the security.properties file to revert to its default settings. Any modifications you may have made to this file will be overwritten by the 7.0.1 Updater. This has been logged as issue 61933.
Solution
If you do not have a backup copy of the security.properties file, you will need to edit this file again, modifying the jrun.subnet.restriction and/or jrun.trusted.hosts properties. In a default ColdFusion MX server configuration, security.properties is located in cf_root/runtime/lib. In a default Multiserver configuration or J2EE configuration on JRun, security.properties is located in jrun_root/lib.
