CF Administrator ERROR after 7.0.1 Update

[SteveNEISD]

After installing CF 7.0.1 Patch to 7.0 as multiple server install on IIS Win
2003 get this message when trying to access CF Admin:
The web site you are accessing has experienced an unexpected error.
Please contact the website administrator.

The following information is meant for the website developer for debugging
purposes.
Error Occurred While Processing Request
The selected method getAdminHash was not found.
Either there are no methods with the specified method name and argument types,
or the method getAdminHash is overloaded with arguments types that ColdFusion
can't decipher reliably. If this is a Java object and you verified that the
method exists, you may need to use the javacast function to reduce ambiguity.

Resources:

* Enable Robust Exception Information to provide greater detail about the
source of errors. In the Administrator, click Debugging & Logging > Debugging
Settings, and select the Robust Exception Information option.
* Check the ColdFusion documentation to verify that you are using the
correct syntax.
* Search the Knowledge Base to find a solution to your problem.

Great reply -- that was the fix!! (the one reply about the hash is darn funny
- see link in above post and click on first thread reply) Thanks. Anyways- the
solution is when installing the CF 7.0.1 Patch, when asked about CFIDE
location, make sure you specify the current and correct CFIDE directory or you
will get the getAdminHash error when accessing ColdFusion Administrator.

In my case I pointed the installer to an older install of CFIDE on C: drive
when I should have pointed it to newer CFIDE on E:. I reran the CF 7.0.1 Patch
and everything works great!!! Thanks Mountain Lover!

I found your thread in both places - thanks for solving the getAdminHash error!
But, I still have a problem - I can't open the instance manager in CFAdmin.
Everything else is fine, but I get an error when I try and click on the
Instance manager:
The web site you are accessing has experienced an unexpected error.
Please contact the website administrator.



Instance Manager

ColdFusion Enterprise lets you create and manage new server instances. These
can be created and run locally (on this machine) or they can be remote servers
that you can register with clusters.


Available Servers Filter by Cluster
Actions Name Server Directory HTTP Port Remote
Port Host Cluster

Any ideas? I'm running with IIS6 on Win2003.
Thanks

I also had the same getAdminHash probem installing 7.0.1. Reinstalling did not
help me though. I still got some install errors noted by the installer. It
could not copy a file into the /cfide folder. The second time I ran the
installer, a different file failed to be copied. I fixed the problem by
changing the security permissions on the Windows 2000 server for the Everyone
group. I gave this group full access to the folder instead of read/list then
re-ran the installer. No install errors appeared this time and the CF
administrator page came up fine. Hope this might help in your situation. In
your case, it is possible that a different file failed to be installed and
hence is showing a different error.
