I have just updated the install guide for Coldbox in which I define some alternate installation methods. I know not everybody has the same server setups and people need options. So I have written a very detailed guide on how to alter the files in order to accomodate different server installs. If you find a mistake in the process or you have found an alternate way of installation, please let me know. I will be very interested in it and I will pay you in "Monopoly Cash" I hope this gives developers and system administrators and project managers a more relaxed approach to installing a software foundation like coldbox. If you have any comments on this, you know where the comments button is. Thanks.

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...
