Installation of latest MDAC on CF4.5 SP2 - required or not ??
Recently, my ColdFusion application.log has started showing a few messages like this: Error,TID=1060,08/28/02,09:42:04,CFSCHEDULE,unknown exception conditionP PCodeRuntimeContextImp::executeSQLTagCFQuery::endTagpThe error occurred while processing an element with a general identifier of (CFQUERY), occupying document position (167:4) to (167:79) in the template file EYOSCHEDULER.CFM./pPPDate/Time: 08/28/02 05:00:31BRBrowser: CFSCHEDULEBRQuery String: RequestTimeout=5000P Some further analysis shows that at the same time that the error was logged in my coldfusion server application.log file, there was also an entry in my Win 2K server's event viewer application.log file : Event Type: Information Event Source: DrWatson Event Category: None Event ID: 4097 Date: 8/28/2002 Time: 9:42:09 AM User: N/A Description: The application, , generated an application error The error occurred on 08/28/2002 09:42:09.323 The exception generated was c005 at address (nosymbols) I am running CF 4.5.1 SP2 Professional on Win 2K Server, with IIS 5 and SQL 2000 DB. However, it doesn't have the latest version of MDAC installed on it. Could that be causing these errors to happen ? Should I install the latest MDAC on my production web server ? A search on the ColdFusion Support Forums also shows me the above pcode errors may happen due to not using the cflock tag. Whenever you access (read or write) Application, Server, or Session variables in an application, you should use the CFLOCK tag. CFLOCK provides borders around the variable access, which in turn ensures the integrity of shared data. Using CFLOCK guarantees that multiple concurrently executing requests do not manipulate shared data structures, files, or CFXs in an inconsistent manner. The template in the above case reads a few application variables and repeatedly calls a CFX tag (upto 5000 times), as follows : cfquery name=generalquery datasource=#dns# username=#ua# password=#pwd# -- query goes here --- /cfquery where #dns#, #ua# and #pwd# are application variables defined in my application.cfm file. cfloop query=generalquery --- cfx tag call goes here --- /cfloop Should there be a CFLOCK around : a) the cfquery declaration ? b) the cfx call ? Note that the same CFX tag is used by other applications on my website as well. c) Each of them ? Hope someone can help me on this one.

Arrays are not great for searching since you have to loop through the entire array. But then maybe that's faster? Finding is OK for lists. What hurts is list manipulation, i.e. every time your list changes. For instance, building a list of 1000 itemns using a for loop is easily a 100 times slower as building a 1000 item array using a for loop. If you really need to build out of a loop, the best is to build an array in the loop and then convert it to a list using ArrayToList(). You should really look at the bigger picture and not just take into account the finding, but count the time for building the list as well. BTW, I am talking CF MX here. In previous versions the difference was much smaller.

Trouble with sessions and AOL ??
Hello,
I have a login that tracks users with sessions and some people are having
trouble
with the login. ALL are AOL users.
They complete the login screen and are immediately looped back to a blank
login
screen. It's working fine for all non-AOL users.
Here is the application.cfm setting --
CFAPPLICATION
NAME=foo
CLIENTMANAGEMENT=YES
SESSIONMANAGEMENT=YES
SESSIONTIMEOUT=#CreateTimespan(0,0,90,0)#
Here is the session checker at the top of the page post-login
--
CFIF isDefined('Session.Auth') is NOT TRUE
CFLOCATION url=subs_login.cfm
cfelseif Session.Auth is NOT TRUE
CFLOCATION url=subs_login.cfm
CFELSE
show the stuff they want
/cfif
Is there something better than IsDefined('Session.Auth') I can use to test
to see if
a session is in effect??
Is this what is tripping the AOL software??
Or do I need to remove this form of authentication to deal with AOL?
The CF Server in use here is 4.5.2

Re: CF Regex problem
Sweet.
Thanks for the new info.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/27/02 03:54PM
That's not 100% true.
1. If the first character of a set is a close bracket and there's no open bracket in
the set, then it will match:
[]0-9] will match ]0123456789
2. If the open bracket is anywhere in the set without a close bracket, it'll match:
[0-9[] will match [0123456789
[[0-9] will match [0123456789
3. If you set a range in your set that starts with an open bracket and goes until a
tilde, then it'll match:
[[-^] will match [/]^
4. If you use a grouping with a pipe, you can fake the brackets:
(\[|/]|[0-9]) will match []0123456789
And you can always use the [[:punct:]]. :)
From the Advanced Cold Fusion 5 Application Development, by Ben Forta, page 230:
[ and ] Brackets delimit a character class and are not allowed within the class
itself. Cold Fusion RegEx does not allow them as escaped characters.
Of course, the [:punct:] class handles them as well as all the other brackets, so
you COULD use that.
But I have often replaced them with another (unused) pair of characters to allow
regex to work.

Hi there,
I'm having a problem in CF5 - if I try to use a regular expression to match a
pattern that contains either the [ or ] characters, the find fails. I've already
tried escaping each and using ascii character codes instead of the actual character,
but I can't seem to make it work.
If I change the text to use ( and ) or { and } and escape them properly, the regex
find works as expected.
Is this a known problem? Is there a workaround?
Thanks,
Matt

Slightly OT: CFQuery, Oracle and Limiting rows
I have a query that returns about 5000+ rows of data. Currently it takes about 51 seconds to execute (it's a very complex query). I'm only displaying 100 records per page using start and end rows in a cfloop. The problem is that the query gets executed every time I go to a page and it take 50 seconds or so each time. I know I can use MAXROWS in my cfquery tag to limit the return to 100 rows, but that will only get me the first 100. Does anyone know how to set it up so I can get the second 100, or third or fortieth? I would guess this needs to be done in oracle instead of CF, but there may be a custom tag I don't know about. (About the data: There is no iterator or counter on the rows so I cannot do a select where rowid between 1 and 100 or 101 and 200 and so on. Each row has a unique value in it, and can be added to or deleted from at any time. Also, the data needs to be real-time so caching a query is out of the question as well.)

RE: Slightly OT: CFQuery, Oracle and Limiting rows
Rob I have asked a similar question on this forum - I think the best bet is to cache the query results and then use the query a query functionality (assuming you are using CF5 or above). How best to cache the query will depend on whether the results are specific to users or not. If not then you can cache in the Application scope. If it is specific to users then I think you can cache in the session scope although my questio (which I am still awaiting responses to) asks how best to do this...

Re: Coldfusion Hiermenus Newstickers
Hi I have a news ticker that sits just below a menu system that uses hiermenus. When the menus drop down the newsticker overlays the menu, in the same way a form select box does. But this only happens in Internet Explorer 5 and below, in Internet Explorer 6 it works fine. Any ideas on what could cause this strange event? and can it be solved, anybody had any experiences with this? Ian __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: Slightly OT: CFQuery, Oracle and Limiting rows
Edwards Robert (air0rae) wrote: I have a query that returns about 5000+ rows of data. Currently it takes about 51 seconds to execute (it's a very complex query). That is long. What are you doing, table scan on a million rows? Full text searching? Get somebody who knows Oracle to look at the query and the database schema. If ODBC, set a blockfactor of 100, it might save half a second :) I'm only displaying 100 records per page using start and end rows in a cfloop. The problem is that the query gets executed every time I go to a page and it take 50 seconds or so each time.

I think it is unlikely that there is a solution for this in the area of getting just a part of the resultset. You could use WHERE rowcount BETWEEN 100 AND 200 to get the second batch of 100 records back, but I don't think that would matter much for your query execution time (you need an ORDER BY with that which in turn means that internally the db still has to get all rows). If you need better performance, look at the database setup, or losen the realtime restriction (technically your current setup is not realtime anyway because Oracle uses MVCC). Sometimes it might be an option to just give the user the first 300 results and ask them to modify their query to be more specific (need to see the explain output to see if that can be used to reduce runtime).

RE: Re[3]: reading files into an array
No. I mean, yes, you CAN use it - but CF does NOT treat it as one delimiter. It treats it as two delimiters. I'm being anal here I guess - I just want to make sure people understand the difference. Saying that Chr(13)Chr(10) is a delimiter is different from saying Chr(13) and Chr(10) are delimiters.

RE: Slightly OT: CFQuery, Oracle and Limiting rows
Here's what i came up with (this is oracle 8.i+ specific) Select * from ( Obscenely long and complex query RANK() OVER (ORDER BY some_col ASC NULLS LAST) as Row_Rank ) Where Row_Rank between #startrow# and #endrow# This gives me 100 rows back at a time. I'm still getting an obscene time in the query so i'm trying to come up with ways to speed things up a little more. One idea is to rank on the primary table first as a subquery and then do the complex joins using the where in (subquery) clause so i only join on 100 rows at a time instead of 5000+. Another is to slightly denormalize (currently i have a complex left between join using ipranges) to speed up processing. Some background on this project (what little i am allowed to reveal): This is a tool that runs on every machine and checks in with a webserver/database on a given interval. The web server sets the interval by returning a time code. Lots of data sent in a small package including Mac address and ip address. Our IP addresses are broken down by building, so if i want to see machines in a given building i do something like (Where ipoc1 between ipocb1 and ipoce1 and ipco2 between ipcob2 and ipoce2 and ipoc3 between ipocb3 and ipoce3 and ipoc4 between ipocb4 and ipcoe4) with left joins done on the between to get null for any areas not in the iprange (the above code is basicly finding between each octet in the ip address). Yes, this does need to be real time so i can see at any given moment what machines are where and other information. One possibility is to determine the building when checking in and inserting the building name or id in the main table so i don't have to do 4 between joins for every ip address. Hence, the slight denormalization. Thanks for all the help though. Currently the processing time for all the rows is about 57000 milliseconds (57 seconds). If i get it working through the denormalization i'll post the time improvement here if anyone is interested.

Re: List Length
I built the list using the ValueList() function of a query column. Seems to be fast. I'm also using CF 5 still. Thanks all for your help. I was thinking there was a small upper limit to list vars, something in the 255 range but that is the limit to using a list in a query WHERE clause i.e. WHERE id IN (1,2,3,4,255) THis is where I believe the 255 limit applies to a list. I would guess this is an Oracle Db SQL limitation?

I don't believe there will ever be more than several hundred and never more than 1200. Arrays won't work well because I'm using lists to determine duplicates...searching for a duplicate username or ID in the list using ListFind(). Arrays are not great for searching since you have to loop through the entire array. But then maybe that's faster? Finding is OK for lists. What hurts is list manipulation, i.e. every time your list changes. For instance, building a list of 1000 itemns using a for loop is easily a 100 times slower as building a 1000 item array using a for loop. If you really need to build out of a loop, the best is to build an array in the loop and then convert it to a list using ArrayToList(). You should really look at the bigger picture and not just take into account the finding, but count the time for building the list as well. BTW, I am talking CF MX here. In previous versions the difference was much smaller.

Strangely, sub-queries that returned more than 1000 records posed no problem whatsoever. -Original Message- From: Bruce Holm [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 11:35 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: List Length I built the list using the ValueList() function of a query column.

I don't believe there will ever be more than several hundred and never more than 1200. Arrays won't work well because I'm using lists to determine duplicates...searching for a duplicate username or ID in the list using ListFind(). Arrays are not great for searching since you have to loop through the entire array. But then maybe that's faster? Finding is OK for lists. What hurts is list manipulation, i.e. every time your list changes. For instance, building a list of 1000 itemns using a for loop is easily a 100 times slower as building a 1000 item array using a for loop. If you really need to build out of a loop, the best is to build an array in the loop and then convert it to a list using ArrayToList(). You should really look at the bigger picture and not just take into account the finding, but count the time for building the list as well. BTW, I am talking CF MX here. In previous versions the difference was much smaller. Jochem __ Your ad could be here.

Re: Slightly OT: CFQuery, Oracle and Limiting rows
Edwards Robert (air0rae) wrote: One idea is to rank on the primary table first as a subquery and then do the complex joins using the where in (subquery) clause so i only join on 100 rows at a time instead of 5000+. Another is to slightly denormalize (currently i have a complex left between join using ipranges) to speed up processing. That should help. Some background on this project (what little i am allowed to reveal): This is a tool that runs on every machine and checks in with a webserver/database on a given interval. The web server sets the interval by returning a time code. Lots of data sent in a small package including Mac address and ip address. Our IP addresses are broken down by building, so if i want to see machines in a given building i do something like (Where ipoc1 between ipocb1 and ipoce1 and ipco2 between ipcob2 and ipoce2 and ipoc3 between ipocb3 and ipoce3 and ipoc4 between ipocb4 and ipcoe4) with left joins done on the between to get null for any areas not in the iprange (the above code is basicly finding between each octet in the ip address). I thought Oracle had IP and MAC datatypes? If you just need to see what is where NOW, this screams for a second table with just the latest data. Just put a trigger on the table you have now and insert whatever is inserted there into a second table. Upon insert in that second table, fire a trigger that deletes the old entry for that machine. That way you should have a quite small table with just the latest data, and use the big table only if you need historic data. (You could achieve the same using partial indexes and a boolean, but I don't know if Oracle supports partial indexes.) Yes, this does need to be real time so i can see at any given moment what machines are where and other information. Well, currently it isn't realtime. You are about 57 seconds behind. And if 10 people hit the application at the same time and the available resources are distributed equally you are 10 times 57 seconds behind (baring caching etc.). One possibility is to determine the building when checking in and inserting the building name or id in the main table so i don't have to do 4 between joins for every ip address. Hence, the slight denormalization. Seeing the query helps. Seeing the explain output helps even more. Jochem __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Big problem- session vars not saved in IE6 on CF5
I am having a big problem with an old standard login system. This is the most simple login system I know and have used it for years. It consists of: Login form page Login action page Main page Session variables tracking who is logged in The user enters in their login acct, the action page compares it against the db, then sets some session variables and uses cflocation to forward them to a new page or back to the login page if they fail. The application page checks for the session variable to see if they're logged in and uses cflocation to send them back to the login page if the var doesn't exist. Up until August 19 it worked fine on all browsers. After then, it works fine on about 75% of the instances of IE6 in our enterprise. It fails on about 1 out of 4 IE installations including my own! What happens is the user logs in, the database accepts the login and uses cflocation to send them to the main page. Then Application.cfm checks to see if they have the correct session variable and uses cflocation to forward them to the login page. I can display the session vars at the bottom of the login action page during testing, but as soon as I turn cflocation back on, the session variables do not exist on the main page after the action page. They disappear. Yes they exist on most instances of IE and they exist in every single instance of NS that I tested. I have a working version of IE 6 that can login with no problem- I have modified my internet options (ESPECIALLY the cookies/privacy options) to match that machine exactly, but still the problems persist on my machine. The only thing that I did that could have affected this on August 19 was that I remember that morning getting a request to log into MS Passport to access my hotmail account. Other than that, I changed none of this code. Since 25% of our users seem to be affected by this problem, it's a big deal for us. I have asked EVERYONE about this and no one has seen this one before. Have any of you heard about this before or does anyone have any suggestions of how to go about debugging this?

RE: CFDUMP issue
Has anyone had an issues with CFdump? Todd, I had the same problem before, but it's probably not the same problem... at least not exactly. I had a huge tree structure that I was dumping, but on the root node, there was an array of references to the different tree nodes. For example: - Root Node |- Node 1 |- Node 2 ||- Sub Node 1 ||- Sub Node 2 | |- array of Node References |- [1] : reference to root node |- [2] : reference to node 1 |- [3] : reference to node 2 |- [4] : reference to sub node 1 |- [5] : reference to sub node 2 The problem with dumping this variable is that it would start dumping the root node, then the child nodes, then it would hit array and dump the root node, then the child nodes, then it would hit the array again... etc. If your data structure is complex, you might look into that. Otherwise, I'm not sure.

RE: Big problem- session vars not saved in IE6 on CF5
I too have seen this on one of our client's server, that I do not manage. Where I first found it was a job app that used different includes for different jobs. When the data was inserted into the database about 15%-20% of the records would not have a value from the session. Thus you could not tell what job they were applying for. I never did track down the exact problem I fix it by passing the job ID in the url line. Are cookies enabled? Check to see if IE is set to default security settings. Under some of the higher settings cookies are disabled and since sessions are tracked via the CFID and CFTOKEN cookies session vars will not work. You can turn on Debugging Options - Show Variables on the server and check to see if the CFID and CFTOKEN cookies are being written. That will show up in the browser under the CGI Variables: HTTP_COOKIE If you find the problem please let me know. So far this has not been a problem for my servers. Mark W.

RE: Semi OT question: Skills for jobs
I agree with you, most wanted ads read like a list of whatever happened to be on the shelf at the time. Fact of the matter is I'd never hire a Java developer who claimed to be good at Photoshop - I don't believe he'd be good at either. Problem is, companies need 2 or 3 people who can do a dozen things and know they'll end up needing a mix of skills, but the exact member makeup can vary. And so they list them all - that makes sense (somewhat). But then whoever screens the calls and sorts the resumes axes those that don't list everything flagging them as a lesser match. Furthermore, the current economy dictates that employers try find one person who can do the job of three. It won't work, but they'll try. I think they'll learn the hard way though. --- Ben -Original Message- From: Phoeun Pha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 12:15 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Semi OT question: Skills for jobs Hey guys and gals and code monkeys, it's come to my attention that Employers are looking for someone with a wide range of skills For example, one required that you know C++, Coldfusion, ASP, Dreamweaver, VBScript, Java, Adobe Photoshop, Macromedia Flash...

OT: Question about IE6 and FTP
Ok, this is a bit off topic, but I have been banging my head against the wall all morning! I just upgraded my browser to IE6 and I have this website that I am working on uses a FTP window within a frame to move large amounts of files from the clients machine to the server. The whole FTP worked great until I upgraded my browser from IE 5.5 to IE6. I wanted to be sure that everything was still going to work with the site. Now, we I try to get the site to open, I am now getting the The page cannot be displayed kiss of death. If I try to type the FTP address into the address bar I get the login popup screen ( BTW: I am using an anonymous login) and have to press the cancel button. But, when I press the cancel button I am able to see the directory on the server. If I go to another machine that has IE 5.5 running then the website (with the framed FTP window) is still there and all is well. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and what I need to do to get things running again? Thanks in advance. Michael __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Subject: Function?
I was curious if it is possible for me to write a function that will
onExit from a form field cerify that data against our database?
For examples if I enter in my SSN then onexit the ssn would be passed
back to the server and a query would execute
Either returing the results of my query (firstname, lastname etc...) or
it would send back no then I would display a error message.
Please advise... Seems possible im just not sure how to do
it...exactly...
Thanks for your help

Re: unresponsive threads crashing cf
Search the Macromedia knowledge base, I think there's information there about CF admin settings. Also, search on information about how CF handles threads. You need to find why your .cfm templates are running so slowly - that's what's killing you. It sounds like the restart at X number of unresponsive threads is set too low. Generally that should be 80% of the number of threads. The number of threads should be about 3 to 5 per processor. The CFadmin default setting makes the restart number greater than the total number of threads, so CF never restarts even if all threads are unresponsive.

Re: Big problem- session vars not saved in IE6 on CF5
I'd suspect the cflocation and/or cookies - if it doesn't have addtoken set, and there's problems with the cookies, session vars won't know which session they're part of. Not sure why that would change all of a sudden, though. I had a problem with an organization once where they stripped all javascript out of web pages without telling anyone. Did a number on my client-side activity! Chris Norloff -- Original Message -- from: Smith, Don , , WHS/PSD [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] date: Wed, 28 Aug 2002 11:50:30 -0400 I am having a big problem with an old standard login system. This is the most simple login system I know and have used it for years. It consists of: Login form page Login action page Main page Session variables tracking who is logged in The user enters in their login acct, the action page compares it against the db, then sets some session variables and uses cflocation to forward them to a new page or back to the login page if they fail. The application page checks for the session variable to see if they're logged in and uses cflocation to send them back to the login page if the var doesn't exist. Up until August 19 it worked fine on all browsers. After then, it works fine on about 75% of the instances of IE6 in our enterprise. It fails on about 1 out of 4 IE installations including my own! What happens is the user logs in, the database accepts the login and uses cflocation to send them to the main page. Then Application.cfm checks to see if they have the correct session variable and uses cflocation to forward them to the login page. I can display the session vars at the bottom of the login action page during testing, but as soon as I turn cflocation back on, the session variables do not exist on the main page after the action page. They disappear. Yes they exist on most instances of IE and they exist in every single instance of NS that I tested. I have a working version of IE 6 that can login with no problem- I have modified my internet options (ESPECIALLY the cookies/privacy options) to match that machine exactly, but still the problems persist on my machine. The only thing that I did that could have affected this on August 19 was that I remember that morning getting a request to log into MS Passport to access my hotmail account. Other than that, I changed none of this code. Since 25% of our users seem to be affected by this problem, it's a big deal for us. I have asked EVERYONE about this and no one has seen this one before. Have any of you heard about this before or does anyone have any suggestions of how to go about debugging this?

RE: Function?
Unconventional? I've seen a LARGE number of applications that do this sort of validation - granted most are desktop applications. In a web environment this is more of a pain to do, but still very possible. Perhaps a better word would be Uncommon? at least in web pages. The unwritten standard that I've seen in web pages is to validate your data when the form is being submitted. This certainly makes writing the code easier, and removes any weird delays checking data while enter it. However, each application has it's own requirements, and some will require validation when the data is entered (i.e. a text box field that only allows numbers). I worked on a web app recently where the type of validation to be done changed on the fly depending on the value of some other form elements. This validation had to happen as data was entered, when the field lost focus, and when the form was submitted. It took a fair bit of code to make it happen, but it wasn't impossible, and actually performs pretty good considering network lags and all My thoughts...

M... nope, I wouldn't expect that to work and here's why:
cflocation actually is a shortcut for a particular cfheader tag, so it
redirects to the next page by manipulating the http header information for
the current request. There is however no communication ( that I'm aware of )
between the http headers for a given request and javascript on the page...
So, the way to get this to work the way you would like it to is to eliminate
the cflocation and use a slightly different syntax.
cfif NOT IsDefined('session.client_id')
script language=javascript
popUpb('home_login.cfm');
/script
cfabort
/cfif
I won't get into specifics about how this technically ought to be inside the
head tags or how it's probably better to associate it with the
window.onload event either in the body tag or by setting the event to your
function... this syntax should work for all intents and purposes on most
browsers.

RE: Function?
Yes, you are right. I thought that she had wanted to do javascript, then serverside validation, and if something is wrong, bring them back to the input page with prefilled fields and alert them. If nothing is wrong, still bring them back to the input page, except this time instead of an alert message, display a submit button for them to click. heh i'm sleepy i guess Actually, dependant upon the application, I could see a situation where it might be beneficial to take the contents of a single input field and pass or submit them to an action page in the onblur() event of the field, thus making allmost all visible content always current, and eliminating the need for a submit or save button. The only drawbacks are that it makes undo a little unwieldy and has the potential to drastically increase bandwidth and server resource usage as a result of sending dozens if not hundreds or thousands of page requests for such a tiny amount of data. But the idea is interresting and possibly viable, given circumstance.

Re: Big problem- session vars not saved in IE6 on CF5
You know... I passed by this thread originally but then this morning I remembered that I have experienced something similar to this in the past. It was even reported to Macromedia and (reluctantly) confirmed to be a bug. I wish I could remember the exact details but to the best of my recollection it had something to do with using session variables and CFCONTENT or... session variables and cflocation Something like that. Since MM couldn't give us a fix... the workaround was to use CLIENT vars instead of session vars. I also recall an issue with the CFCOOKIE tag and CFCONTENT tag (in CF5). Once again, the workaround here was to use CLIENT vars instead of regular cookies. On the surface it didn't make much sense since a Client var IS a cookie... but I guess it was treated differently in the CF code... -Novak - Original Message - From: Mark W. Breneman [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 9:18 AM Subject: RE: Big problem- session vars not saved in IE6 on CF5 I too have seen this on one of our client's server, that I do not manage. Where I first found it was a job app that used different includes for different jobs. When the data was inserted into the database about 15%-20% of the records would not have a value from the session. Thus you could not tell what job they were applying for. I never did track down the exact problem I fix it by passing the job ID in the url line. Are cookies enabled? Check to see if IE is set to default security settings. Under some of the higher settings cookies are disabled and since sessions are tracked via the CFID and CFTOKEN cookies session vars will not work. You can turn on Debugging Options - Show Variables on the server and check to see if the CFID and CFTOKEN cookies are being written. That will show up in the browser under the CGI Variables: HTTP_COOKIE If you find the problem please let me know. So far this has not been a problem for my servers. Mark W.

This is the most simple login system I know and have used it for years. It consists of: Login form page Login action page Main page Session variables tracking who is logged in The user enters in their login acct, the action page compares it against the db, then sets some session variables and uses cflocation to forward them to a new page or back to the login page if they fail. The application page checks for the session variable to see if they're logged in and uses cflocation to send them back to the login page if the var doesn't exist. Up until August 19 it worked fine on all browsers. After then, it works fine on about 75% of the instances of IE6 in our enterprise. It fails on about 1 out of 4 IE installations including my own! What happens is the user logs in, the database accepts the login and uses cflocation to send them to the main page. Then Application.cfm checks to see if they have the correct session variable and uses cflocation to forward them to the login page. I can display the session vars at the bottom of the login action page during testing, but as soon as I turn cflocation back on, the session variables do not exist on the main page after the action page. They disappear. Yes they exist on most instances of IE and they exist in every single instance of NS that I tested. I have a working version of IE 6 that can login with no problem- I have modified my internet options (ESPECIALLY the cookies/privacy options) to match that machine exactly, but still the problems persist on my machine. The only thing that I did that could have affected this on August 19 was that I remember that morning getting a request to log into MS Passport to access my hotmail account. Other than that, I changed none of this code. Since 25% of our users seem to be affected by this problem, it's a big deal for us. I have asked EVERYONE about this and no one has seen this one before. Have any of you heard about this before or does anyone have any suggestions of how to go about debugging this? Thanks, Don Smith __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: programmer vs. developer
Define a programming language and see if CF fits into it. Does it store variables? Do conditional logic? iterate loops? convert data? What makes C++ a programming language and CF not one? If you say that CF is just built on top of C++, then every C++ and java programmer aren't really programmers as they're not writing machine code. The argument is an artificial one. I'm a programmer because I use a computer language to write applications (even a single template) that runs on a computer to process some data.
