Ian,
Thank you for your response. Might I impose on you 1 more time?
We installed CF 9 Enterprise Linux 64. It did not run clean, (the Apache Connector did not complete properly because we were missing the httpd-devl package) and when we tried to uninstall CF9, it rendered the server unusable. This is the response from our Senior Linux Admin after we ran the CF 9 uninstall by using:
cd /opt/coldfusion9/uninstall (/opt/coldfusion9 is our cf_root directory)
./uninstall
“After failing to even be able to login to the server I pulled it up in rescue mode to see what might be done for it. I found something I had never seen before. The /bin directory had been symlinked over to the /sbin directory. Due to this everything in /bin was lost (most importantly shells). Due to this nothing was able to be logged in. I tried some recovery options but none of them were adequate for this. I am now doing a full restore from backup.”
Do you have any idea what might be causing this? This is the 4th occurance of this on both CF 8 and CF 9.
Thanks for your time and trouble.
Don
