Disable RDS
For security reasons, Adobe recommends that you disable RDS on a production server. If you enable RDS
when you install ColdFusion 10, you can disable it at a later time, as the following instructions describe.
If you disable RDS, the following ColdFusion 10 features do not work:
The Browse Server button in the ColdFusion Administrator (for example, on the ColdFusion Mappings
page)
The Query Builder and charting in the ColdFusion Report Builder
To disable RDS on UNIX,
Stop ColdFusion.
In the WebSphere Administrative Console, select the Applications > Enterprise Applications panel,
select the Adobe ColdFusion 10 application, and then click Stop.
Do the following in both the \WEB-INF\web.xml and the \AppServer\cocf_webapp_root websphere_root
nfig\cells\NodeName\applications\cf_application_name.ear\
deployments\cf_application_name\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\web.xml files (or the equivalent paths in
UNIX). For example, change the following files:
To disable RDS on Windows,
Back up the ColdFusion web module web.xml file (available in either C:\Program
Files\WebSphere\AppServer\installedApps_<MY_NODE>\cfusion.ear\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\we
\applications\cfusiob.xml or C:\Program Files\WebSphere\AppServer\config\cells_<MY_NODE>
n.ear\deployments\Adobe ColdFusion 10\cfusion.war\ WEB-INF\web.xml).
Open the original web.xml file for editing.
Comment out the RDS Servlet definition, as follows:
<!-- <servlet id="coldfusion_servlet_8789">
<servlet-name>RDSServlet</servlet-name> <display-name>RDS
Servlet</display-name><servlet-class>coldfusion.bootstrap.Bootstrap
Servlet</servlet-class> <init-param
id="InitParam_103401311065856789"><param-name>servlet.class</param-
name>
<param-value>coldfusion.rds.RdsFrontEndServlet</param-value></init-
param> </servlet> -->
The text in the servlet definition might vary.
Comment out the RDS Servlet mapping, as the following example shows:
<!--
<servlet-mapping id="coldfusioon_mapping_9">
<servlet-name>RDSServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/CFIDE/main/ide.cfm</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
-->
The servlet-mapping id value might vary.
Save the file.
Restart the ColdFusion 10 application.
If your ColdFusion 10 application context root is something other than /, disable or undeploy the
RDS redirector web module by doing the following:
In the WebSphere Administrative Console, select cell_name > Applications > Enterprise
Applications.
