Updating from an earlier version for J2EE
If you previously deployed the ColdFusion J2EE configuration
on your application server, you must also perform the following
steps as part of the installation procedure:
As appropriate for your application server, either stop
the ColdFusion application and RDS application (if it is running),
or stop the application server before you start the installation
wizard.
(Windows only) If you installed the SequelLink ODBC Agent,
stop the ODBC services before you start the installation wizard.
Copy application files to a backup directory.
Save settings by copying the files cf_webapp_root/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib/neo-*.xml
to a backup directory.
Before you deploy ColdFusion 9, undeploy the previous ColdFusion
application using your application-server-specific undeploy functionality.
Deploy ColdFusion 9 as described in Deploying ColdFusion 9 on JRun 4, Deploying ColdFusion 9 on IBM WebSphere, Deploying ColdFusion 9 on BEA WebLogic, Deploying ColdFusion 9 on Oracle Application Server 10g, or Deploying ColdFusion 9 on JBoss Application Server.
Create a directory named cfXsettings (in which X is
the earlier version of ColdFusion) in the cf_webapp_root/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib
directory.
Copy the backed up settings files to the ColdFusion 9 cfusion/lib/cfXsettings directory.
Edit the ColdFusion 9 cfusion/lib/adminconfig.xml file by
setting the value of the runmigrationwizard and
the migratecfX (in which X is the
earlier version of ColdFusion) switch to true.
Restart the ColdFusion 9 application.
Browse
to ColdFusion Administrator to run the migration wizard.
Note: The migration wizard supports only the migration
of settings from ColdFusion 7 and ColdFusion 8.
