Updating from an earlier version
If you have skipped the migration or you have to make modifications to the previous installation that has to be
migrated, do the following:
1 Stop the server.
2 Save settings by copying the files cf_webapp_root/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib/neo-*.xml (of previous installation) to a
directory named cfXsettings (in which X is the earlier version of ColdFusion) in the
cf_webapp_new_installation_root_directory/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib directory.
3 Edit the ColdFusion 9 cfusion/lib/adminconfig.xml file by setting the value of the runmigrationwizard and the
migratecfX (in which X is the earlier version of ColdFusion) switch to true.
4 Restart the ColdFusion 9 application.
5 Browse to ColdFusion Administrator to run the migration wizard.
