Documentation

CFML Engine Implementation Details

Adobe ColdFusion

  • CFMLAdmin API does not accept RDS Password to login.

Open BlueDragon

Railo

  • All CFMLAdmin API calls execute against the current web context and not server-wide
  • All CFMLAdmin API calls execute only on current server, does not use remoteClients attribute on Railo's cfadmin tag

Database Implementation Details

My SQL

  • setDatasource() databasetype="mysql" on Adobe ColdFusion defaults to MySQL5 driver

Microsoft SQL Server

  • setDatasource() databasetype="mssql" on Railo and Open BlueDragon defaults to using the jTDS JDBC driver

Oracle

  • setDatasource() databasetype="oracle" on Railo and Open BlueDragon uses thin driver and not OCI
  • setDatasource() databasetype="oracle" on Adobe ColdFusion Standard Edition does not work, since using DataDirect drivers shipped by Adobe

Other JDBC

  • Open BlueDragon requires a validation query when connecting to an other JDBC driver, CFMLAdmin API defaults this to "SELECT 1"

Remote Access to CFMLAdmin API

  • By default .disabled is added to the end of the filename cfmladminremoteapi.cfc so it cannot be invoked, to enable remove .disabled
