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.

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.

Introducing BoxLang AI Explorer: A Local Catalog for Every AI Pattern

Introducing BoxLang AI Explorer: A Local Catalog for Every AI Pattern

Learning a new AI API usually means jumping between scattered documentation pages, guessing at imports, and copy-pasting code that may or may not still work. We wanted something better for BoxLang AI, so we built the BoxLang AI Explorer: a local, browser-based catalog of runnable BoxLang AI examples, organized by category and difficulty, each with guidance, source code, and sample output.

Community Spotlight: BoxLang Express Brings Node-Style HTTP to the JVM

If you've spent years in Spring Boot, Micronaut, or Jakarta EE, "web framework" usually means a servlet container, an embedded Tomcat or Netty, a build step, and a fat jar before anything answers a request. What if you could skip all of that and still be on the JVM?
