Unable to deactivate previous coldfusion builder 2 installations

I can't activate an installation of ColdFusion Builder 2 because it says I have two adjacent installations of CF Builder on two other computers.
The two other computers disks drives were erased before CF Builder could be deactivated.
So, it still thinks they are currently being used.
What can I do ??

  • ColdFusion Builder 3 Mac Eclipse Plugin

    I have been trying numerous ways to install CFBuilder 3 Trial into Eclipse 4.2.2 on Mac (Yosemite) and just cannot get CFBuilder to load the CF Perspective. I have tried in various Eclipse versions, and in multiple orders including just installing CFBuilder Trial Edition without in a clean 4.2.2 Eclipse from clean CF install (plugin only, but tried also installing full CFBuilder app both before and after plugin installation, rebooting between each install) and new workspace.
    My ultimate goal is to also install Flash Builder 4.7 into the same Eclipse app, but am starting with CFBuilder since Flash Builder installs successfully. Note that this question is ONLY for the ColdFusion Builder 3 installation alone without Flash Builder installed on the machine.
    Bottom line: I just cannot get CFBuilder 3 to load into Eclipse 4.2.2 and show the CF Perspective even though it appears to be a successful plugin install; I am starting Eclipse either from both the plugin directory's shortcut and from the eclipse app itself - neither work.
    Does anyone have a clue whether this can be done on a Mac?

    My apologies for taking so long to get back to this. I just did some testing tonight of your instructions as well as those by Kaif above.
    Firstly, I installed ColdFusion 10 locally on my Mac. I added the local server to the CF Servers panel successfully. After restarting Eclipse, the localhost entry remained in the CF Server panel.
    Secondly, I followed your instructions to make a new profile and make my font/coloring customizations in it. I restarted Eclipse and my font and color selections were maintained (through 3 restarts). I noted that my newly created profile was selected in Preferences after each restart.
    I then added a remote CF 10 server to the CF Servers panel successfully (as noted by the panel telling me that the server was running and being able to launch the CF Admin from within Eclipse). At this point there were 2 entries in my CF Server panel--localhost and the one remote server that lives inside my VM. I restarted Eclipse and when it came back up, only the localhost server remained. I might add that the VM has ColdFusion 10 installed in "multi-instance" mode and that the remote server instance that I added to the CF Servers panel was one of 4 CF instances configured and running inside the VM.
    All the while, my font and color customizations have remained the way I set them.
    So, it appears as though we're down to just one bug relating to remote server registrations in the CF Servers panel.
    I saw that another user was reporting something similar in this thread: ColdFusion Builder 3 RDS and Remove Server settings reset on each restart so apparently it's not just me.
    Thanks to you and everyone else for all the ideas and troubleshooting help thus far. At least at this point I think I might be able to use this for day-to-day coding, even though I really want the remote server system to work correctly so I can use the step debugger feature again.

  • Help : installer has detected one or more adobe coldfusion builder plugins

    I uninstalled coldfusion builder from flash builder and then when re-install I get a  message:
    installer has detected one or more adobe coldfusion builder plugins  ....etc
    How do I fix this?

    As a caution to save your time please follow the following release note:
    82284 -   If you install ColdFusion Builder as a plug-in to Flash Builder and decide to uninstall ColdFusion Builder, make sure ColdFusion perspective is not active in Flash Builder. Failing which, some features may not work after restarting Flash Builder or ColdFusion Builder's perspective will not come up if installed again.
    I did the wrong thing here and I can't ever get coldfusion to reappear after unstalling into FB

  • Unable to get a case number to transfer a ColdFusion Builder 2 license from one developer to another developer.

    I am trying to transfer a ColdFusion Builder 2 license from one developer who left the company to another developer.  I filled out the transfer forms but I cannot find a way to log a case so I can include the case number.  I tried to click on Chat and it keeps telling me that "Chat is unavailable right now".  Does anyone know of a different way to initiate this process?

    Well, last week I read about the confusion on this issue in ZDNet, and concluded that my best move would be to drop by the AT&T store here. The counter rep called AT&T and got a person who hadn't heard of this, but said he'd try to do it anyhow. He reported after a while that my phone was "ineligible," although since it's been out of contract for four years, I believe it is.
    The AT&T customer service man then attempted to transfer my store person to Apple. Having been given an Apple phone number, after ten minutes of "hold" time with Apple, we hung up and called that number. After ten minutes, Apple answered and said that while they sell unlocked iPhones, they NEVER unlock them for customers, and that we should call AT&T again. So my person called AT&T again, and after a long hold, got someone who started researching the problem. After 20 minutes or so, my person asked the AT&T customer service person if I could leave the store and have her call me when some resolution. A half an hour later, she said that AT&T was working on it and that it might take at least a couple of weeks!

  • Coldfusion Builder 3 Global Search

    I downloaded and installed Coldfusion Builder 2 and liked it.  I decided to purchase it and found that Coldfusion Builder 3 had been released.  I purchased Coldfusion Builder 3 after my trial had expired.  I then uninstalled 2 and installed 3.  I attempted to register my product but nothing shows that it was successful or unsuccessful and my license key does not show up under Previous Serial number in Help->License Adobe Coldfusion Builder.
    I am unable to do a global search of my project and the syntax highlighting no longer works in the cfquery tags as well as the built in server does not start.  It is almost like the application thinks I am still using an unlicensed version.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times as well as rebuilt my workspaces from scratch and yet none of this has fixed the issues.  I am on a Windows 7 enterprise 64 bit machine. 
    Let me know if you need any further information.

  • How do I remove this stupid *&^$ Tasktop program from my ColdFusion Builder 2?

    I do not need it, I do not want it, and somehow I accidentally installed it. I can find no uninstall button, it's not in my Vista Programs and Features to uninstall, and I"m tired of waiting for it during application load and getting in the way of my shortcuts and whatnot. I just want it gone but I can find no reference anywhere to take this stupid program out.

    RLS,
    Are you running the latest version of CF Builder by any chance (2.0.1)?  If not, you might want to download and install it.  It actually uninstalls the previous version of CF Builder (2.0.0) and installs the new version (becuase 2.0.1 uses a newer major build of Eclipse).  This will allow you to start with a "clean slate" when it comes to which add-ons are installed, but it should maintain all of your project settings.
    Another idea, although this one could be pretty dangerous.  If you feel comfortable trying this, close CF Builder and:
    Make a copy of your \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe\ColdFusion Builder 2\features and \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe\ColdFusion Builder 2\plugins folders as a backup. 
    Make copies of \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe ColdFusion Builder 2\configuration\org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator\bundles.info and \Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe ColdFusion Builder 2\configuration\org.eclipse.update\platform.xml as backups.
    Browse each of those folders from step 1 and find any folders and files with "Tasktop" in the name.  Delete just those files and folders.
    Open \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe ColdFusion Builder 2\configuration\org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator\bundles.info in a text editor and remove lines that have references to Tasktop.
    Open \Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe ColdFusion Builder 2\configuration\org.eclipse.update\platform.xml in a text editor and remove lines that have references to Tasktop.
    Launch CF Builder.
    If CF Builder wont' run after that, revert the folders and files to the copies you made in steps 1 and 2 above.
    Good luck,
    -Carl V.

  • The internal html viewer is not working in coldfusion builder 2.

    It is so frustrating how hard this is. I finished setting up coldfusion and coldfusion builder 2 with an apache local webserver and was hoping to make use of the internal html viewer but it won't come on! All I see is a blank grey page with no content. After creeping around the forums for a while it seemed that the simplest solution was to use the internal coldfusion server so I uninstalled everything and did just that, reverting my administrator page to http://localhost:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm (working and launchable from the IDE), placing my webroot at C:\ColdFusion9\wwwroot and with all the folders in their right place. The server is running ok and when I launch the run as "coldfusion administrator" option to run my index file, it succesfully opens the external browser and displays the page.
    I have the same setup on my desktop at home, the same files, installation, everything! and it works but not on my laptop. I followed Ben Forta's instructions to a T and yet I still am not getting the html preview. I even tried to hard code the absolute url in the html preview settings and still nothing but that annoying grey.
    Is this a bug? There doesn't seem to be anything about it in the bug reports. It is quite infuriating how something that seems so miniscule could be such an annoyance. I have already gotten quite used to the preview pages and coldfusion and I would prefer to code that way rather than making use of dreamweaver which I feel I am being forced to use, but at least it's consistent.
    Please if anyone could provide some answers and help I would really appreciate it! I have only so much hair left!
    Thanks!

    Perhaps others may recognize and resolve this for you. I and others here often can and do offer quick solutions to many problems. And I can appreciate that it’s reasonable to think that something so simple should just work. But in this case I think are simply too many variables that could explain why things are not working for you. And while I can also appreciate that you will prefer to get a solution for free if anyone can offer it, I just can’t even begin to offer all the possible problems and solutions, at least by email, in this case. Again, maybe someone else will make a quick connection.
    But I will point out that if you’re willing to pay US$75, I offer a service of remotely troubleshooting any one CFBuilder problem for that fixed price. Hopefully I might help you solve it quickly (when I can see exactly what’s going on in your environment), but you will not pay if I don’t solve the problem in up to 2 hours effort. If you may be interested, see www.carehart.org/consulting/ for more, and if you want to set up a time to get together (over the web), drop me an email at [email protected]
    Finally, please note that I don’t often point out this service here on the forums. I generally just offer suggestions (sometimes lengthy ones) without any commercial expectation, so please don’t regard this as me engaging in “abusive unsolicited commercial email”. I’m just offering a possible solution, given the OPs sincere challenge in solving things.

  • Unable to deactivate and activate Adobe Creative Suite

    Hi,
    I was unable to deactivate my latest installation of Creative Suite because my hard drive crashed. Now, with a new hard drive, I am unable to activate my copy of the product because I have reached the activation limit.
    I need help with deactivating the copy which was on the spoilt hard drive.
    I have tried many times and failed to contact Adobe via live chat, because I am never able to get through with an available agent. Also, I cannot seem to find any Adobe Customer Care email address, or any number to call (I live in Singapore), or any other portal by which I can reach Adobe.
    I have had this dragging for weeks and I am getting quite impatient about this matter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    You have to use the web chat. TRhere is no way around it, as annoying as it may be.

  • ColdFusion Builder 3 Settings Reset on Restart

    I've downloaded the ColdFusion Builder 3 trial and am experiencing some odd and very annoying behavior.
    I've customized some code editor text font and color settings. I've added an entry to the CF Servers panel for an instance of ColdFusion 10 running inside a VMWare virtual server on my laptop.
    When I restart Eclipse, all the code customizations I've made are reverted back to the default install settings and the entry in my CF Servers panel is gone.
    I've been an IntelliJ user for well over a year, but in doing much more cfscript-based development the CF Plugin for IntelliJ is proving to be a hindrance so I thought I'd give CFB 3 a try and see if there were any improvements over CFB 2. However, I can't take this kind of behavior. Hopefully someone can give me a setting or someone else has seen this before and can give me an idea of where to start looking.
    I have CF Builder installed as a plugin into Eclipse Kepler 64-bit for Mac. I added the CF Builder update site and have updated to CF Builder 3.0.0.290000. I also previously installed as the standalone version with no additional plugins and experienced the same behavior.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Dan

  • Eroor after ligin - Unable to Recover Previous State

    Hi,
    I have fresh eBS vision installed on suse 9.0,
    1. I logging in to eBS home page
    2. I traing to open resposibility and getting error:
    'Error: Unable to Recover Previous State
    Transaction context has been lost for the page you requested. This error could have been caused by an expired user session or a system failure.'
    What does it means, how to avoid this error?
    Tnx,
    Edgar

    Did you re-run all the updates to get your computer back to the point it was at prior to "initilization" (by the way, "initialization" really refers just to formatting a disk and not all the subsequent OS installation, etc. that you did)? It is possible not all components of your applications are in synch with each other. I could easily see this happening with Quicktime and possibly Safari. Text Edit is probably so simple that it is not trying to interact with other components on the computer.
    Since Safari and Quicktime are easily available I would just download them and reinstall them.

  • How to make my first website in Coldfusion Builder

    Hi everyone,
    Here is my problem that I really need help with.
    Context:
    I just moved from Dreamveawer to Coldfusion Builder. I want to:
    -> Set up my first server
    -> Creating an SQL DB on the server
    -> Create an index page and display query results
    When I started CF builder, i watched the videos on 'Getting Started ' screen. But my things didn't go as smooth as that of the guy in the video. After setting up the server I sometimes cannot start the server and sometimes the server starts but I can't access the CF Admin page (I couldn't access the admin page even once).
    Question(s):
    Does CF Builder installer also include Coldfusion setup or I have to install Coldfusion prior to installing the CF Builder?
    Is there any way of getting details about all the fields that I fill in during installation of Coldfusion/CF Builder, so I know what I am filling instead of just blindly following that dumb guy in the video
    Other Info:
    I am using Win7 64bit
    Installed Coldfusion9
    Installed CF Builder2 (standalone)
    P.S.
    I already watched these videos but they didn't work for me:
    -> http://tv.adobe.com/watch/adc-presents/getting-started-with-coldfusion-builder-2/
    -> The video on CF Builder2 start screen

    Thanks for clarifying.  Terry is a good guy. Glad you didn't mean him
    It is likely that when you installed ColdFusion you selected the "Server Configuration" (because you would know it if you did not). The other two options are quite complicated. You can verify this just by answering this question. Do you access ColdFusion via port 8500. If so, then you are using the Server Configuration.
    This means that your webroot is probably located at c:\ColdFusion9\wwwroot
    If you installed ColdFusion to a different location (like D:\) then you should be able to just make that change above.
    Change your workspace in CFBuilder (FILE >> Switch Workspace) to point to that wwwroot directory, then recreate your project and try it again.
    There are other ways of handling most of this. But this is probably the easiest.
    And trust me, when it comes to teaching, it's hard to please everyone. ColdFusion Builders target audience is likely experienced CF developers. Of course n00bs can use it too, but I am sure when they created those videos there interest was in getting existng CF developers on board. I teach a server-side programming course at the college level and it can be very hard teaching the IDE and the Server software at the same time. And I can see people struggling with figuring out the differences in terminology and technology.
    Where does the IDE stop and the server begin?
    I got an error, is the problem in CF or CFB?
    CFB says I have an error, but my code still runs, I don't understand.
    It's a tough line to cross. I am sure Adobe would be interested in hearing your feedback on how to make the training videos better, or on what types of new videos should be created. But try not to be too hard on them for not havign exactly what you need.

  • ColdFusion Builder plugin console

    I just don't understand what I am doing wrong here. I updated ColdFusion builder as a plugin installed in 3.5.1. I also have Flex 3 /subclipse and a few other plugins installed. When I restart my localhost or want to view orm sql logged to the console, nothing appears. After a restart I get this.
    [localhost]:(12/18 at 09:54:11) Server is available. Getting server settings from Server
    [localhost]:Error(12/18 at 09:54:12) Unable to fetch server mappings.
    [localhost]:Error(12/18 at 09:54:12) Unable to get the log directory.
    On my laptop (at home and work) I have Builder running as standalone and this works fine on both of them. What can I do to fix this? I really like logging info to the console.

    Can you try to remove the server settings and put them in again. (This worked for me once, but it was in beta 2. Now running Beta 3 so I cannot imitate your scenario to validate it as a fellow user. )

  • How to show cfm, html, js, css, and browser tab in coldfusion builder 3?

    On Coldfusion Builder 2, I see these tabs are available when I create a new page, but not on Coldfusion Builder 3.
    What should I do to show them on CFB 3?

    Builder 3 does not seem to offer those sub-tabs in its toolbar, but if you open each of those kinds of files, you’ll find that the top toolbar (where they appeared) shows many of the same icons for each of those type of files as was previously listed in those sub-tabs.
    I realize that isn’t as helpful if you are opening a single CFM or HTML file which happens to have also HTML, CSS, and JS code in it. You won’t see the icons for that other kind of code, even when you move to such code.
    FWIW, note that CFB 1 and 2 had previously relied upon an underlying 3rd party tool called Aptana, for most such  HTML, CSS, and JS-specific functionality. In CFB3 that product was dropped and the CFB team tried to recreate much of its functionality. This (the tabs for other code within a single file extension) may be  something they didn’t think was used often, or maybe there was a challenge in doing so.
    Even so, do note also that there is still support for CSS and JS (and HTML) within a CFM page, in terms of CFB’s features like code completion, code assist, outline view, etc.
    Still, I realize that some of the “wrap”-oriented tools in that old toolbar aren’t accessible any other way, so you may want to file a feature request (or bug report, however you may want to cast it) at bugbase.adobe.com.
    Hope that’s helpful.
