Solution

---

Both ColdFusion MX 7 cumulative and individual hot fixes are installed in the ColdFusion MX Administrator. The installation process is the same for all platforms and installation choices.

However, this update has additional files that must be replaced in cfmx_root/lib. Default server installations place the lib directory as follows:

• Windows - C:\CFusionMX7\lib
• Linux/UNIX - /opt/coldfusionmx7

J2EE, JRun or multiserver installations place the lib directory similar to:

• Windows - C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib
• Linux/UNIX - /opt/jrun4/servers/cfusion/cfusion-ear/cfusion-war/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib

Install the ColdFusion MX 7.0.2 hot fix.

1. Download and unzip the hot fix. (9K)
2. Open the ColdFusion MX Administrator and select the System Information page. Next to the Update File field, either:
   • Type in the file path to hf702-65719.jar and click Submit.
     
     OR
     
   • Select the Browse Button and browse to hf702-65719.jar. Select the file and click apply.
3. Stop ColdFusion MX.
4. Move the following JAR files from cfmx7_root/lib to a backup directory:
   • ib6core.jar
   • ib61patch.jar
   • ib6swing.jar
   • ib6utils.jar
   • ri_generic.jar
5. Copy the replacement JAR files from the downloaded zip file to cfmx7_root/lib:
   • ib6core.jar
   • ib6swing.jar
   • ib6utils.jar
   • ri_generic.jar
   • Note: There is no replacement for ib61patch.jar.
6. Restart ColdFusion MX 7.02.

The ColdFusion MX 7 hot fix JAR file does not need to be retained after installing it with the ColdFusion Administrator. The file has been copied into the correct location.

The ColdFusion MX 7 hot fix JAR file (hf702-65719.jar) will appear as a new entry in the System Information list.
