Re: CF10 / SQL Server Windows Authentication
Thanks I'm going to go down with a SQL user and not use the windows authentication. It wasn't my choice to use more this is what I was given.

You should also remember that if you run CF as a domain user who has access to network resources and all the databases on your sql server, then any code and any person with access to upload code on your cf server also has this level of access as well.

Upgrading CF9 Hotfixes
Hi, I am having a lot of problems trying to upgrade hot fixes. I currently have 9.01 installed. I have downloaded 9.01 hot fix as described here: http://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/kb/security-hotfix-coldfusion-8-8.html. However, after applying the changes the CF Admin stops working and just shows a blank page. I have followed the instructions diligently so wondered what else may be going wrong. I tried to apply the 9.02 update but again the CF admin stopped working and showed an error: 'Class not found: coldfusion.security.ESAPIUtils' I am lost as to what to try next and what the issue is. I think there were 4 hot fixes for 9.01? Do I need to load them one at a time in order, and then apply the 9.02 update?

Possible to optimise CFHTTP Response Time?
I have an API running on my server where I can receive an average ping response to the host server of 1ms yet when I make a CFHTTP request to the host server it takes anywhere from 300-500ms to return a response.

Re: Possible to optimise CFHTTP Response Time?
a cfhttp is not the same as a ping a ping simply sends a packet to the server and gets a response. cfhttp is requesting a page from the server, that request goes to the web server, then to cf, the page has to execute and then return all data back to your server, so the time taken depends on how long the page takes to process On Thu, Feb 13, 2014 at 2:57 PM, Craig Brown craigpbr...@gmail.com wrote: I have an API running on my server where I can receive an average ping response to the host server of 1ms yet when I make a CFHTTP request to the host server it takes anywhere from 300-500ms to return a response.

Re: Upgrading CF9 Hotfixes
Hi Richard, Are you renaming any existing jar files or removing them completely? I have run into issues when the old hotfix files are just renamed, you should remove them from the folder completely (i.e. the ones in the UPDATES folder). Ensure that you have them backed up in another location though incase you need to restore them.

Re: Upgrading CF9 Hotfixes
also, make double sure you are installing the right hotfixes.

Re: Possible to optimise CFHTTP Response Time?
if it is the page you are calling which is taking the time then no, because it is not the request which is the cause. A suggested you need to check how long the page you are requesting takes to execute before blaming the connection.

Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this latency, and how I could decrease it? Do you control the API service? If so, it's like any other web program, and you can optimize it the same way you would any other web program - look for unnecessary work done at runtime, etc. If you don't control the API service, there isn't a lot you can do. There might be a problem with your machine's network connection. You could try making the request from another machine on a different network and see what happens. You don't need to use CFHTTP to test this kind of thing - you can use any HTTP client, including wget etc. And, as Russ mentioned, ping and HTTP times aren't connected in any useful way.

9.02 is not an update - it is a full install (see Charlie Arehart's blog entry for an excellent explanation http://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2013/8/19/understanding_ColdFusion_9.0.2_a_FAQ).
