|
Default |
Description |
|
-Dcoldfusion.runtime.remotemethod.matchArguments |
True |
The flag is set to true by default, which enforces strict argument matching. If a remote method expects certain parameters, those arguments must be explicitly declared using the cfargument tag or defined directly in the function signature. For example, if a remote function is defined to accept two arguments, it must only receive those two. Passing more than the declared number (for example, 10) will result in an error. This change ensures stricter method integrity and a better debugging experience. This behavior change applies only to remote CFC methods. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.systemprobe.allowexecution |
False |
By default, this flag is set to false for security reasons. The flag prevents the execution of a System Probe during a failure. To enable this functionality, set its value to true. |
|
JVM argument |
Default |
Description |
|
-Dcoldfusion.pdfg.connectionTimeout |
|
The value is in milliseconds. This is the timeout value that will be set for PDF conversion. If a conversion takes longer than the mentioned value, it will be timed out, and an exception will be thrown. |
New in ColdFusion (2025 release)
|
JVM argument |
Default |
Description If true, the flag prevents ColdFusion from dynamically compiling CFML code into Java bytecode at runtime. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.datasource.blocked.properties |
|
The connection strings mentioned are blocked if a new database is added. To allow their usage in the database, remove them from the property. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.compiler.block.bytecode |
False |
If true, the flag prevents ColdFusion from executing pre-compiled CFML code (Java bytecode) at runtime. |
Other flags in ColdFusion (2025 release)
|
JVM argument |
Default |
Description |
|
-Dcoldfusion.encryption.useCFMX_COMPATAsDefault |
True |
This property is removed. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.searchimplicitscopes |
True |
This property is removed. |
|
-Dcfdocument.metahttpequivrefresh.localfile |
True |
Impacts how the <cfdocument> tag handles the meta refresh directive when generating PDFs from local files. |
|
-Djdk.lang.Process.allowAmbiguousCommands |
False |
Related to how Java allows ambiguous command-line parsing on Windows. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.sessioncookie.httponly |
False |
Determines if session cookies must be restricted from client-side JavaScript access. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.xml.allowPathCharacters |
True |
Controls whether XML parsing allows file paths (such as slashes /, backslashes \, or colons :) in in element names, attributes, or values. |
|
-Duser.timezone=<timezone>.
If you want UTC timezone, use -Duser.timezone=GMT |
|
Sets the time zone of the ColdFusion host. |
|
-Dfile.encoding |
UTF-8 |
Sets the encoding of ColdFusion files, eg, .cfc or .cfm. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.monitoring.id.reset |
True |
Controls whether monitoring ID used by ColdFusion’s Performance Monitoring Toolset (PMT) must be reset when the server starts. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.number.allowdotsuffix |
False |
If set to false, an operand that has a trailing dot, is evaluated as a string. |
|
-Djdk.tls.client.protocols |
TLSv1.2,TLSv1.3 |
Specifies the TLS protocols that is used by TLS/SSL clients when establishing secure connections. |
|
-Dhttps.protocols |

Specifies the TLS protocols that is used by HTTPS connections in ColdFusion. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.sftp.enable-ssh-rsa |
False |
Set the flag to True to enable the ssh-rsa algorithm. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.sftp.fingerprint |
SHA256 |
Set the flag to md5, for example, to enforce SFTP connections using the md5 algorithm. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.application.orderby.caseinsensitive |
True |
Determines if string columns are being ordered by the Order By clause like traditional databases. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.jdbc.mysql.datetime.str |
True |
If set to True, converts MySQL datetime objects to strings. |
|
-Dcoldfusion.jdbc.mssql.multi_resultset.supported |
True |
Controls the resultset parsing behavior for ResultSets. |
|
