  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Problems with ColdFusion integration

We've several servers with the following configuration:

windows 2008 r2
ColdFusion 8.0.1
Plesk 10.3.0


and both servers have problems related to ColdFusion integration with Plesk:

1. Disabling ColdFuson for any subdomain within any sunscription does not work - it just shows 'Information: The changes were saved. ' message but ColdFusion remains enabled in plesk and all mappings still there when checked with IISAdmin. Executing subdomain.exe from console does work properly:

%%Plesk_Bin%%\subdomain.exe --update <subdomain> -domain <domain_name> -coldfusion false
%%Plesk_Bin%%\subdomain.exe --update <subdomain> -domain <domain_name> -coldfusion true


so it looks like problem is with Plesk interface API.

2. On previous Plesk 9.x we had CFIDE virtual directory created automatically for each new domain/subdomain with ColdFusion support enabled, but on new Plesk 10 is it not creating at all. Is this common behaviour for Plesk 10 or we have some problem with our servers configuration?

Thank you for detailed report. I have forwarded it to developers for the further investigation. I will update thread with results as soon as I receive it.
 
Could you please provide architecture of ColdFusion - x32 or x64?
 
Hello Igor,

All servers except one have ColdFusion 8.0.1 - 32bit.
And we have one server with ColdFusion 9.0.1.274733 - 32bit with exact the same symptoms.

Thank you. I have forwarded it to developers. Let's wait their answer.
 
CFIDE virtual directory for the domain is not created automatically by Plesk
From 10.2.0 it's created only for default IIS site, because it's not used by Plesk per domain. Does it cause some issue for you?

It causes issues for our customers who expects that enabling CF support for a domain will make their CF forms work, but in the situation when CFIDE folder is not mapped to this particular domain/subdomain it is impossible and the customer have to upload whole CFIDE folder by himself/herself.

Thanks
 
Hi IgorG

Is this same with Plesk 10.3.1 and coldfusion 9?. We are also facing the same issue. Plesk 10 doesn't create `cfide` virtual directory. We also need to manually add 'cfide' virtual directory from our customers.
 
I've just noticed that the cfide virtual folder is no longer being created, but it was being created previously.

Microsoft Windows 6.1;build-7601;sp1.0;suite1296;product3 64 Bit
Parallels Plesk Panel v10.4.4_build20111103.18 os_Windows 2003/2008
ColdFusion 9,0,1,274733
 
We've just upgraded to Plesk 11 and it still doesn't create the cfide virtual folder in ColdFusion enabled accounts.
 
CFIDE Virtual Directory No longer created by Plesk

I have the same problem. The CFIDE virtual directory is no longer created by Plesk 11 for new CF sites on Windows 2008 Server 64bit, running ColdFusion 8, 32bit. This is a problem.

Is there a fix?

Thanks!
