==Upping Post Parameters on a Coldfusion 9 VPS==

After the most recent hotfix to ColdFusion 9, the post parameters(number of items in a form for example) are limited to 100.  In ColdFusion 10, this limit can be upped in the CF Admin but in CF9 it requires editing of the neo-runtime.xml file.  If you are running into an error that post parameters limits is exceeded, follow these steps.

#Navigate to your ColdFusion home directory (Example: C:\ColdFusion9)
#Go to the LIB directory inside the home directory
#Make a copy of the file called Neo-runtime.xml and name it neo-runtime.bak, this is for a backup in case any mistakes are made
#Edit the neo-runtime.xml file
#Find a line that reads <nowiki><var name='postSizeLimit'><number>100.0</number></var></nowiki>
#Directly after the <nowiki></var></nowiki>, insert a line that reads <nowiki><var name='postParametersLimit'><number>XXXX.0</number></nowiki> where XXXX=the post parameters limit you want to set
#Save the file
#Open up Start--->Administrative Tools--->Services
#Navigate to Coldfusion 9 Application Server
#Stop Coldfusion 9 Application Server
#Once it has fully stopped, start Coldfusion 9 Application Server for the changes to take effect


These steps will up the post parameters limit to what you set and allow for you to have larger form submissions.
