Solved : ColdFusion ImageGetEXIFMetaData() Error

It seems working with EXIF like a game of whac-a-mole. Everyone have their own standards and when you settle one, something different show up some other place. To be fair to EXIF standards, this is not unique to EXIF. Even simple dateformat() are all over the place. CF9 and 10 ImageGetEXIFMetaData() function use metadata-extractor-2.4.0-beta-1 by Drew Noakes and current version is 2.6.4.

If you use ImageGetEXIFMetaData() function heavily, it is always better to keep up to date version in the CF engine since new cameras might come up with something different causing ImageGetEXIFMetaData () to fail. To do that, download the newest new version of metadata-extractor, go into your existing metadata-extractor-2.4.0-beta-1.jar com\drew\metadata\exif and copy ExifDescriptor.class into the same location in the new jar file. It is quite easy, just use WinRar. Stop the ColdFusion server. Copy new file into ColdFusion lib folder (C:\ColdFusion9\lib) and remove old file and back it up. Restart the ColdFusion server. I also attached modified Jar file bellow.
