Corrupt table errors with cached queries (ColdFusion 8)

Issue

---

Coldfusion raises an illegal exception: you see an error message about a corrupt table when the "Maximum number of cached queries" size is less than the number of queries to be cached by an application.

Solution

---

Both ColdFusion 8 cumulative and individual hot fixes are installed in the ColdFusion Administrator. The installation process is the same for all platforms and installation choices.

Install the ColdFusion 8 hot fix.

1. Download the hot fix.
2. Extract hf800-70332.jar from the hf800-70332.zip file.
3. Open the ColdFusion Administrator and select the System Information page. Next to the Update File field, either:
   • Type in the file path to hf800-70332.jar and click Submit.
     
     OR
     
   • Select the Browse Button and browse to the hf800-70332.jar. Select the file and click Submit.
4. Restart the ColdFusion Server.

Note: The ColdFusion 8 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.
