The new release candidate of Lucee (5.3.4.54-rc) has also been added to ForgeBox to encourage people to test it. Since it's not a stable release, you'll only get it if you ask for it explicitly:> server start [email protected] notable security change in the new Lucee 5.3.4.54-rc release candidate is you can no longer set the initial admin pass from the web.

If you’re looking for ColdFusion from the homepage, click Print and Publishing to find it.https://community.adobe.com/t5/ColdFusion/bd-p/coldfusionRelated TweetTweet - Kai Koenig - Discussing Adobe not including ColdFusion in their Web Development category for their Forums.In fact, one might argue the fact that Adobe categories their *web development* platform #ColdFusion as "Print & Publishing" and not as "Web & Design" is a really good indicator for the state of Adobe ColdFusion.If you're doing #cfml, I'd strongly recommend you use #lucee.https://twitter.com/agentK/status/1172225908993708032https://twitter.com/agentKCharlie Arehart has updated on the Lost Content from Adobe ForumsUpdate 1: well, the cutover didn’t happen until Sep 12, after all. The new forums are at https://community.adobe.com/t5/ColdFusion/bd-p/coldfusion. In there, content created or edited in the forums between Aug 22 and mid-day Sep 9 is indeed missing. Update 2: but here’s some good news is that I learned after writing this that the CF team had indeed been synching the forums with the portal, so you will find that the portal (this site, where you’re reading this) DOES have copies of the forum threads, even up to mid-today.https://coldfusion.adobe.com/2019/09/beware-adobe-forum-content-created-aug-22-sep-9-will-lost/ #ModernizeorDie ® - SoapBox Ep 7 - @carehart - Zero to 60 with Adobe CF Docker Images released In this episode Gavin talks with Charlie Arehart, a long-time ColdFusion community contributor, first about his history with ColdFusion and then about his upcoming session and pre conference workshop at CF Summit, as well as his session at CF Camp.
