Migrating UNIX settings manually

If you are upgrading from ColdFusion 4.5 or 5, you can optionally migrate settings later. To migrate later:

To migrate settings manually:

  1. Close the ColdFusion MX Administrator, if it is not already closed.
  2. Open the cf_root/lib/adminconfig.xml file in a text editor.
  3. Change the value of runmigrationwizard and runmxmigrationwizard to true, as necessary, so that the appropriate lines of the file appear as follows:
    <runmigrationwizard>true</runmigrationwizard>
    <runmxmigrationwizard>true</runmxmigrationwizard>
    
  4. Save the file.
  5. Restart the ColdFusion MX Administrator.

    You are prompted again to migrate your settings.

    Caution: If you migrate your ColdFusion 5 settings later, you might overwrite new ColdFusion MX 7 settings.
