Thoughts, ideas, tips, musings, and pontifications (not necessarily in that order) by Ben Forta ...
NOTE: This is my personal blog, and the opinions and statements voiced here are my own.
We are about to start testing an update to JRun 4 (Updater 7) which will bring JRun up to date with changes we made to support ColdFusion 8 (including changes to support newer operating systems). If you'd like to take part, sign up here.
Thanks for the tip, Ben! We can't migrate to CF8 until we can update to Updater 7 (I don't want to reinstall JRun and lose all of our installed instances). So we've been looking forward to this updater.
So... does this mean JRun is going to be brought to another version later. I have heard rumors of it's demise. I think most technologies are electronic cats. They seem to have nine lives. (The question is who is qualified to certifiy the nine deaths of a technology?)
Hey John, yours is a reasonable question, but it's been answered relatively recently. Seems you may have missed that. Adobe has formally announced the end of new feature development for JRun, so no, there will be no new "version", only updaters, like this, driven primarily by the needs to update JRun to support CF features. There were a couple of blog entries at the time, such as: http://www.dcooper.org/blog/client/index.cfm?mode=...
These also point to an Adobe-specific technote clarifying this, but CFers will want to stop by Damon's blog entry first to get a CF perspective on the decision. It's not bad news at all, at least for CFers.
I cannot get the jrun 4 updater 7 installed. It wants to know the path of the jrun 4 location, i have tried a hundred different locations. What the heck it is looking for? Help!
