We have pushed a patch release of CommandBox 5.1.1 which is a small addition to the recent 5.1.0 release. This release was primarily to address a regression in 5.1.0 affecting Mac OS users who tried to start Lucee servers. If you see an error similar to this on a Lucee server and you're running a Mac and CommandBox 5.1.0, then this release will fix it for you.

lucee.runtime.exp.NativeException: mac os x is not a supported OS platform.

If you are upgrading from CommandBox 5.1.0, there are only a handful of tickets which are listed below. If you are updating from an earlier version of CommandBox, please check out our 5.0.0 and 5.1.0 release blogs.

Your API Returns 200. Did the Business Transaction Actually Work?

The customer submits an order. The portal shows a confirmation. The API returns 200 OK, and the release checks pass.

The next morning, operations asks why the order never appeared in the approval queue. Support has a ticket. A developer has to trace the order through the database and figure out whether someone can safely submit it again.

For teams maintaining a ColdFusion or Lucee application, this is a frustrating kind of release failure: the team ...

BoxLang AI 3.7: Profiles, Embeddings Defaults and MCP Rate Limiting

Ortus Solutions announces the release of BoxLang AI 3.7. Name a provider, model, params and API key once, then pick it by name for a call, an agent, or a single agent run. Embeddings get their own defaults, MCP servers you build get rate limiting and trusted proxies, and a handful of important fixes land along the way.

BoxLang 1.19.0: See Everything Your Code Does

Ortus Solutions today announces the release of BoxLang 1.19.0, the software productivity platform for building, modernizing and running applications, with developers and AI agents working together. This release is about observability: built-in code coverage and execution profiling, the missing post-invocation events for BIFs, and new query and transaction events, and it pairs with the new BxLens beta, the debug bar and ops console that exposes hotspots and bytecode profilers. It also adds your own global settings in boxlang.json, static method interception, raw binary HTTP streaming and a lot of hardening across JDBC, Java interop and CFML compatibility.

Hi Brad, many thanks for this update. I'm a Commandbox newbie. Just need to report that after doing a Brew Update Commandbox on OS X Catalina the runwar4.1.1.jar did not get updated. My fix was to stop the server, delete runwar4.1 from .Commandbox/lib and manually replace it with runwar4.1.1.jar. Cheers, Matt

Hi Matt, what version of CommandBox did Brew install when you updated? The pull request to add this version to Brew was just merged in a couple hours ago so it's possible you tested prior to then or that your local Homebrew installation hasn't pulled the new formulas. The current version of Runwar in CommandBox 5.1.1 should be Runwar 4.1.2.
