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.

From Legacy Risk to Modern Agility: A Phased Modernization Roadmap for CFML Teams

From Legacy Risk to Modern Agility: A Phased Modernization Roadmap for CFML Teams

Many organizations running CFML applications today face the same challenge.

Their systems still work.

They support core business processes.

They generate revenue.

But at the same time, those platforms are increasingly exposed to risk.

Unsupported runtimes, operational fragility, security exposure, and difficulty integrating with modern systems are becoming more common in environments still running older versions of Adobe ColdFusion or Lucee.

The quest...
