ColdFusion 9.0.1 Update Released

Title says it all. ColdFusion 9.0.1 has been released.

Comments
Is it same to assume that it does something different than 9.00?
# Posted By Michael | 7/13/10 12:54 PM
It adds ORM support for multiple data sources!!!

That's not worth mentioning at all????????
# Posted By Michael | 7/13/10 12:56 PM
Nah, it's not just a hot fix it a blaze'n hot update. Literally because it even has Blaze 4 update inside. The caching, Amazon S3 ehnancements and more. You guys have to schedule this update for your developers ASAP! Great update without reservation.

After running this update on our test server, I get an error on every datasource. I tried reinstalling the patch but I get the same error every time. Anyone else run into this?

java.sql.SQLException: macromedia.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerLicense cannot be cast to macromedia.jdbc.sqlserverbase.BaseLicense
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: macromedia.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerLicense cannot be cast to macromedia.jdbc.sqlserverbase.BaseLicense

Quick question regarding the SOLR updates, I use the SOLR install that was installed natively with CF9. Does the 9.0.1 update, update this or do I need to run the update listed here:

Thanks in advance :)
# Posted By Tom Jenkins | 7/13/10 3:45 PM
Yep, different.
# Posted By Ben Forta | 7/13/10 4:05 PM
It breaks returnformat=json for my CFCs - any numeric values are returned as strings :-)
# Posted By johans | 7/13/10 8:42 PM
I just installed this and getting only a white page when trying to get to my CF admin. Does anybody have the same issue?
# Posted By Misha | 7/14/10 9:57 AM
Same problem as Dan:

@David/Dan:

It seems that there is an issue with the new database drivers in ColdFusion 9.0.1 and SeeFusion. The CF team is looking into and hopefully we can figure out what's going on.

In the meantime, you can easily revert back to the previous JDBC drivers by copying the backup version of macromedia_drivers.jar from /WEB-INF/cfusion/updater_backup like so:

1.   Stop ColdFusion
2.   Rename macromedia_drivers.jar found in the /WEB-INF/cfusion/lib directory to macromedia_drivers.bak
3.   Copy macromedia_drivers.jar from the /WEB-INF/cfusion/updater_backup/lib directory to the /WEB-INF/cfusion/lib directory
4.   Restart ColdFusion

Where can I find documentation for S3? I can't even explain how awesome this feature alone is...
# Posted By Alex T. | 7/15/10 11:52 AM
@Alex T: Ray Camden just wrote a very nice blog article demo'ing the new S3 features:

http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2010/7/15/...

very cool :D

@Adam

We followed the procedures to revert to the older Database drivers and we are still getting the same Datasource service is not available error. Is there anything else we could try to fix the issue? If not how can we uninstall the 9.0.1 update?
# Posted By Frank | 7/16/10 9:04 AM
@Adam

The JDBC revert didn't work for me either, and I'm also not using SeeFusion on the machine with the failed upgrade.

The server that died is a win2008 VPS on Hosting.com which was upgraded from 8 to 9, and now 9.01.

My dev server was fine though, win7 going from 9 to 9.01
# Posted By Jason Rushton | 7/18/10 1:24 AM
@Tom Jenkins: 9.0.1 updater will update solr as well
# Posted By Vinu | 7/21/10 6:12 AM
Got the datasource error also, and I'm not using SeeFusion.

Copying the jar file did not help.
# Posted By Wim | 7/22/10 7:42 AM
Reverting the macromedia_drivers.jar worked for me. If anyone knows when Adobe will fix this, please let us know.
# Posted By Brian | 7/26/10 1:51 AM
We got an database error too on our Red Hat Linux Server.
We downgraded to ColdFusion 9.0 and it works.
We did not use SeeFusion, but we use FusionReactor.
Is there a solution any working solution or will adobe fix this?
# Posted By Felix K. | 7/26/10 7:15 AM
# Posted By Ben Forta | 8/11/10 6:52 PM
I have yet a different solution regarding the error above, "macromedia.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerLicense cannot be cast to macromedia.jdbc.sqlserverbase.BaseLicense". I got it too, but I was running both FusionReactor and SeeFusion.

But about the recommendations above to copy the jar file from the updater_backup directory to the WEB-INF\cfusion\lib, I found that in my case, both the files were the same (did a compare).

But they were both different from that in the [cf]\lib directory. That one is mentioned by no one above, but it's long been the location where that jar had lived. So I decided to "comment out" the one in [cf]\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib by renaming it to macromedia_drivers.jar.bak. (That required that CF be stopped to do the renaming.) I then restarted CF, and the DSN that was failing now worked (including both those that are and are not wrapped with FusionReactor/SeeFusion).

I don't know if this would be a recommended solution for others, but in case anyone hits what I did, if it may help, I wanted to share it.
# Posted By Charlie Arehart | 11/15/10 12:06 AM
Charlie, this exact issue just bit me, and I found your observation about the location of the backup driver jar file to be correct. Thank you.
# Posted By Steven Erat | 1/11/11 4:56 PM
Both solutions didnt'work for us but then i got the idea to restore the 'old' drivers (i made backup before upgrading) to the WEB-INF/lib directory AND to the Coldfusion/lib directory and that worked.
