Known issues in this release

Issue #1

ColdFusion (2016 release) ODBC Server service does not start in some cases if the file msvcr100.dll is missing.

Workaround

Copy the file msvcr100.dll from the backup folder CF_HOME/cfusion/hf-updates/<update folder>/backup/db/slserver54/bin to:

[CF_HOME]\cfusion\db\slserver54\bin
[CF_HOME]\cfusion\db\slserver54\admin

If the file does not exist in the backup, download the file and copy it to the locations mentioned above.

Issue #2

After upgrading to Update 8, there are ColdFusion.Ajax.submitForm errors in Internet Explorer 11.

Workaround

Internet Explorer does not support the method startsWith(). You can add this method to <cfusion_home>\wwwroot\cf_scripts\scripts\ajax\package\cfajax.js by adding the snippet below:

if (!String.prototype.startsWith) {
    Object.defineProperty(String.prototype, 'startsWith', {
    value: function(search, pos)

    { 
        pos = !pos || pos < 0 ? 0 : +pos; return this.substring(pos, pos + search.length) === search; }
    });
}
