Awesome update, Covid sucks! Take lots of vitamin D, C, Zinc, & E for the next few months. That stuff is nasty
Get well and relax!
Hi,
I just tried updating our staging server by dropping in the new jar, to a current install and restarting tomcat.
I get the following error when attempting to access either of the admins…

I am having this same Can’t cast String http to a boolean issue. Did you ever find a solution to that? Mine is http, not https.
I did my update through the admin, not by putting in the jar file.
Looking at the error it was happening in the admin application.cfc. It seemed to have something to do with checking the X-Forwarded-Proto header. I am using nginx and setting that header for requests that are proxied to lucee. I commented out that line and the error stopped happening. Then I changed my nginx config so it would not pass that header on the domain that I use to access the admin. This seems to have fixed the issue for me.

Thanks for the update Matt.
I have updated the nginx config for my admin-allowed domain, too.
Works like a charm.
I think so ? This is a standard header, added by everything from mod_cfml to AWS services like CloudFront and Load Balencer
Zac still seems to be recovering… I hope he is doing well and getting better.

I am going to upgrade from Lucee 5.2.9.31 . Should I go to 5.4.3.15 or 6?
Any gotchas I should watch up for or is it expected to be compatible? My code base is pretty old. (like from the 1900s!)
I am on Apache Tomcat 8.5.6 and Java 1.8.0_112 What versions should they be upgraded to?
thanks!
This is just my personal opinion: it depends… For a common/general cfml app where there is not much happening, I’d go directly for Lucee 6 in multimode first. For bigger applications with heavier load and high availablity, I wouldn’t bump directly to 6.0, but(!!!) I’d start trying migrating to test 6.0 as soon as I can: This is also very important for us as a Lucee community, because if nobody tests it and find any remote/unknown issues on heavy load, we will all keep under 6.0 for a long time. Its important to envolve and help whenever we can as a community. Lucee is fully community driven and needs us to test.
If you code is very old, there shouldn’t be much of a problem. Just look for some fancy old legacy tags that are not supported by Lucee like these here (thx again to Mr. CFML Jedi for keeping this repo alive):

Thanks. It is pretty low load and not using those fancy UI tags. What about tomcat and java versions?
I’d took the chance and bump everything to the latest. Make always sure to backup everything first, so you can always rollback when needed.
