JRE v5 is not supported and AFAIK there are issues with some CF functionality when it's used. Assuming you're running windows, below are the instructions I wrote for a client to upgrade to 1.4.2_11. No guarantees they'll work for you though :(
1) Stop all ColdFusion Services (if ColdFusion MX 7 Application Server fails to stop, kill the jrun.exe process in task manager) and the World Wide Web Publishing Service (IIS) 2) Run j2sdk-1_4_2_11-windows-i586-p.exe. Choose to install 'Development Tools' only and change the install path to C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\j2sdk1.4.2_11\ 3) When install completes, do not restart server, open C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\bin\jvm.config in notepad (or similar). Comment (#) the line that says java.home=C:/CFusionMX7/runtime/jre and add a new line below that says java.home=C:/CFusionMX7/runtime/j2sdk1.4.2_11/jre. It should look like: #java.home=C:/CFusionMX7/runtime/jre java.home=C:/CFusionMX7/runtime/j2sdk1.4.2_11/jre 4) Now restart the server 5) Once restarted, browse to http://x.x.x.x/cfide/administrator (where x.x.x.x is the server ip) and login to the CF Admin. Choose 'Settings Summary' from the left menu to confirm that the Java Version is 1.4.2_11 Hope it helps Gareth ----- Original Message ----- From: "sam komo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 10:29 PM Subject: Re: JVM / JRE update Hi All, Our production server CF7.02 server setting for Java JVM says 1.4.2_05 even though I installed the JRE v5. Will this Handle the Daylight savings time issue?. Also, I installed the 1.4.2_11 on my test server, changed the CF to point to the new version but my CF froze. Luckly I backed up my the xml file. How can I safely upgrade my test servers?
