Hi Luis,

There was a discussion in OpenBD list about the application naming in ColdBox which can cause problems etc.

Have you already seen it?

Yes, BD doesn't like dashes or spaces. Again, the naming of the Application.cfc is given with a default of a hash that does not use spaces or dashes. The cfthreads also do not use dashes or spaces, this was done for BD capabilities in 2.5. So they should hold true.

So far, I haven't run into any issues, apart from the server.coldfusion.productversion fix that was committed.

I have tried Coldbox on Open BlueDragon and it takes like 3 minutes to load and once it loads the sample files, it is just a blank screen....No errors or anything.

Sorry to say but coldbox no longer works on Open Bd (OBD 1.3/Tomcat). Everything seems broken in CB 3.0 (M6.2-318-GENESIS-14:14).

🔎 Introducing bx-meilisearch: Blazing-Fast Search for BoxLang Applications

Search is one of those features that can make or break an application. Users expect it to be instant, forgiving of typos, and smart about relevance. Building that experience from scratch is a significant investment. That is exactly why we built bx-meilisearch — a BoxLang-native module that puts the full power of Meilisearch at your fingertips with a fluent, chainable DSL that feels right at home in any BoxLang application.
