The .bin file might be expecting /bin/sh to be bash, which is a bad assumption. Try this:

sudo bash ./ColdFusion_9_WWE_linux64.bin

@Ashish Welcome to Ask Ubuntu, as you debug your problem just keep adding the information to your additional question so that it doesn't get buried in the comments. I was hoping that would fix it but it appears to have not done so, just keep updating your question with your research into the problem and it'll help someone down the line who might be able to help! – Jorge Castro Oct 14 '11 at 12:51
