Copy the JSON content to the file bundlesdependency_custom.json, which is located in the directory [CF Home]\bundles.
If there is another JSON patch already present, append the bundle, as shown below:
There are situations when you may need to apply a custom patch in ColdFusion to fix an issue or to check a new feature that is provided via a jar.
In this document, we shall demonstrate how you'd apply a custom patch to a package in ColdFusion (2021 release).
We shall provide a JSON along with one or more jars, whenever you receive a custom patch.
For example, if you were to apply a patch for the package ftp, the JSON looks like:
{ "bundle": "ftp", "minimumcoreserverupdaterequired": 0, "version": "2021.0.0.324000", "description": "The ftp package", "dependencies": [ { "name" : "jsch" , "version" : "0.1.55", "embedded" : false}, { "name" : "commons-net" , "version" : "3.6", "embedded" : false} ], "awsserverless": true }
Let's deconstruct the JSON:
Copy the JSON content to the file bundlesdependency_custom.json, which is located in the directory [CF Home]\bundles.
If there is another JSON patch already present, append the bundle, as shown below:
You'd have been provided one or more jars, based on the changes. In this example, if a new version of jsch jar was also provided, then the jars are:
The commons-net jar remained unchanged, so it was not provided.
Copy the following jars:
Launch the cfpm tool:
Run the command listall. Both the old and new build numbers of the ftp package will get listed (the old build should be in green if it is installed).
cfpm>listall
adminapi, versions : [2021.0.0.323925]
administrator, versions : [2021.0.0.323925]
ftp, versions : [2021.0.0.324000, 2021.0.0.323925]
Install the ftp package.
cfpm>install ftp
Rerun the command listall.
cfpm>listall
The new build number of the ftp package would be in green color.
You've successfully applied a new patch to your ColdFusion server without restarting the server.
The procedure above enables you to easily apply a patch to a package in ColdFusion (2021 release).
The traditional way of applying patches to the ColdFusion server still holds true.
But that will not work for patches specific to the packages.
