Upgrade server and remove the older version problem 1

[tsave22]

Our current system – Windows 2000 server with Coldfusion MX and Coldfusion MX7 servers installed. I need to upgrade it to Coldfusion MX7 with Jrun.
I installed Coldfusion MX7 with Jrun, it migrated all settings and data sources with instruction to use the uninstaller to remove the older version.

Everything on the system worked fine until I uninstalled Coldfusion MX. Nothing would run, I could not even open the administrator. Any ideas?

Reinstall.


Hope This Helps!

Reinstall works, but we will loose all settings and data sources (and there are quite a few). I had to restore back to previous installation.

One way to do this (backup datasources) if you are using Enterprise edition is create a .car file. The other way is to copy the neo-query.xml file which contains the datasources - you probably do not want to replace the cfmx version of neo-query.xml with your old version as there may be some changes but you should be able to add sections copied from it into your new file, restart cf and see the datasources appear
