Hmm, on the top right you can see the View Help PDF download link, like this one http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/10.0/Developing/coldfusion_10_dev.pdf

Thanks Carl,

I agree. That's my plan. I just need some references when I run into problems so I can figure out what is wrong. Coldfusion has great error messages, but I still need to be able to look up the tags, functions, etc that will most likely be showing up in the error messages to see how they are being handled in ColdFusion 10.

Thanks,

Joe CF5 to CF10 is probably another topic.

Make a development CF10 environment with a datasource to a copy of your database ie not live database, place CFM application, apply any CF environment to make application work (eg mappings). Begin testing and debug of application usage.

All the best with that, Carl.

Thanks Petro,

I must be missing something as I don't see the pdfs. Just links to more HTML pages. The links to Coldfusion Admininstration or CFML Reference take me to HTML pages and more links. I'd like to get what they are calling the Documentation Set in PDF form so I could read and search through it, but I can't find them anywhere. I am hoping that will help with our migration from ColdFusion 5 to 10.

Thanks,

Thanks Carl,

That's where a lot of the searches take me. The problem is, I have to click through link after link to get to something and then it's pretty brief. I have a site that is in ColdFusion 5 and we are starting to migrate everything to 10. What I am really looking for is to find out what has changed since 5. I am sure there is a lot. Any thoughts on what the best approach might be for this kind of migration? I mainly need to know the changes and new features that have been introduced since 5.

Thanks,

I tried this and it takes me to http://localhost/CFIDE/administrator/help/index.html. I am looking for the manuals in pdf format. This page keeps to taking me to link after link and it finally ends up on very small html pages. I would really like to get the files in the format they used to be in, which was pdf, so I can read and search them. Are they still available?

Thanks,

Okay, so the answer is that it's "AsDesigned".

There's an option in the installer to install local documentation, but there's a bug report with a comment on it:

"Local documentation is no longer available as part of the installation. You can access the documentation online at http://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion.html."

(Full bug located at https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3342688)

Well fix the installer them. Wasting my bloody time!

Thanks for that Carl.

I was actually hoping for the HTML version, similar to what I was able to get on previous versions. But I guess the PDF is not too bad an option.

Hi Andrew, You could go to online help and select "View Help PDF" then save the PDF file to local drive for latter reference.

HTH, Carl.

Hi,

When I installed CF10, I selected the option in the installer to install the documentation. However I cannot see any sign of it on my PC.

Where does it put it? I realise I can access it online, but I have always found it much more efficient to have an offline copy running on my local server.

Alternatively, is it possible to download the docs as a zip file and install them locally?

Regards,

Andrew.
