Re: cfindex is taking forever
Not in front of a computer right now, but there is an option in the CFcollection tag to list or get a collection details (something like that). Pretty sure that gives you the record or document count and maybe even size . I think that is accessible while indexing is happening. You could possibly write a quick script to see how far along things are.

Re: Sudden error with CFHTTP ans SSL
What is the URL and does the domain name match the certificate exactly, meaning not a wildcard certificate. Could be PayPal updated their SSL certificate and is either a wildcard certificate or multi-site/domain certificate (not sure what these are really called). CF will not like it if the domain is www.domain.com, but the certificate is *.domain.com. In this case, you need to import the certificate to the java cacerts as a trusted certificate to by-pass the security matching. You can either do this from the command line, or by far the easier route is this extension to CF admin. http://certman.riaforge.org/ https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instantion=1espv=2ie=UTF-8#q=import+ssl+certificate+coldfusion+9+to+cacerts ~Byron On Mon, Mar 30, 2015 at 12:34 PM, wrote: Hi, I have an application under CF 9 with a paiment module using Paypal.

Re: considering two options for changing hosting
Sorry I cannot comment on Hostek, but I would recommend working with your host and getting to the root of the issue before putting in the work on moving things. I just know that can be a hassle and you could wind up in the same place as you are today. So some recommendations. - Get your provider to move the site to another server. Even if it's temporary to see if the server is the issue. Maybe they can just provide another temp account for free. This way the db can stay where it is and just gave to move the files. - Put another simple php app on your site. This would help narrow down php on the server or your php instance (depending on their config) as the issue. - Disable your Wordpress plugins one by one to see if one is at fault. I know you stated these aren't the issue, but worth trying. - Check web logs to see if someone is leeching your Wordpress content and beating up your site. - Use a Wordpress caching plugin, you should do this anyway as Wordpress usually runs like doodie without one anyway. - Run the site through something like pingdom.com/tools, which will break down the load times and from where. Could be a plugin loading content from another site that is the issue and this would show it. - Check the html source, possible that your Wordpress site is compromised and there is some hidden content or something in the page causing a slow down. If you wanted to share the site, I'm sure some people on the list might be able to offer some insight.

Re: Scheduler directory missing.
I would make a copy of the entire directory, then uninstall and install. Then copy and overwrite the configuration files. Pretty sure with 7, you will want the lib/neo-*.xml files. That should get you most of the way there. You could also leave the current install as is. Install a fresh copy to a new directory. Copy the configuration files, then update the Web server connectors to the new instance/install. That may be preferred as it would be easier to roll back to the prior version to at least keep things working.

Re: CF version of JIRA?
If it's just issue tracking you are after and not so much project management, Jira is really overkill and IMHO overly complex to setup and manage anyhow. PivotalTracker might be something to look at if you are looking for something similar in the project management arenas. It is geared towards Agile, but could be used for more traditional PM. If just issue tracking is the goal, Trac or Redmine would be a good simple ways to go. Trello is a pretty awesome free organization tool that may be of interest as well.

Re: Cannot access session variables in a cfc
@Dean, Looked into this a bit further on CF10. root - Application.cfc - ApplicationProxy.cfc (extends Application) - cfc-folder - - Application.cfc (extends ApplicationProxy) - - myCFC.cfc This does not work without the cfc/application.cfc having extends=root.ApplicationProxy, where 'root' is a CF mapping. As you said, CF will search from the application root downward on the file system. Since there is an Application.cfc in the cfc folder, it would start there and not find the ApplicationProxy in the directory above. This would work if the actual root directory was cfusion/wwwroot, or maybe if both application.cfc had the same applicationName and the ApplicationProxy was used/cached in /root app somehow before /root/cfc was initialized.

Re: validating email CF11
With all the new top level domains available now (), you are better with a
regex that matches by size, instead of adding specific strings beyond 3 or
4 characters.
Just change the {2,4} to something like {2,254}, which should fairly
future proof the regex.
I believe the RFC for DNS has a maximum length of 253 for a domain, while
the RFC for an email address is 254 for max length.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Internet_top-level_domains#ICANN-era_generic_top-level_domains
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address
Interesting to note, that many special characters are allowed in the local
part and IPV4 and IPV6 addresses are allowed for the domain part of an
email address. The first regex Robert provided will handle most typical
email addresses however.
I don't think I've seen an email with an IP domain in like forever, but if
IPV6 every takes hold, it's very possible it would become typical at some
point.

Re: Chat app (using CF websockets) has stopped working after upgrading to CF11
Maybe a missing CF Mapping for the custom listener path? So does something like createObject(component, 'myPath.myCustomListener') work?

Re: Bcrypt.class error
Based on your description, I think this is the line causing an error.
bcrypt.checkpw(lcase(password),Member.getMemberPassword())
I might just add some more granular logging before the statement that would
maybe nail down what is amiss.
try { writeoutput(lcase(password)); } catch (any e) { write error 1 }
try { writeoutput(Member.getMemberPassword()); } catch (any e) { write
error 2 }
try { writeoutput(bcrypt.checkpw('test','test')); } catch (any e) { write
error 3 }
try { writeoutput(bcrypt.checkpw(lcase(password),Member.
getMemberPassword())); } catch (any e) { write error 4 }
bcrypt.checkpw(lcase(password),Member.getMemberPassword())
Could maybe also pull out the checkpw function from inside the if an set to
a variable.
var chkResult = bcrypt.checkpw(lcase(password),Member.getMemberPassword())
if(isDefined(chkResult) and !isNull(chkResult) and isBoolean(chkResult)
and chkResult){.
if statement might be a bit overkill, but may handle the error more
gracefully.

I've seen this before when the CF service suddenly terminates. Could be the service terminated during an update to the xml file rendering it empty. A subsequent restart of CF may have created a backup of the xml file before stopping, rendering the bak file empty as well. We moved to clustered configuration for scheduled tasks which keeps all the tasks in a database instead of a file. This has been really nice, since we have 12 instance running for all our internals.

Re: Redirects
Is the site coded in a manner where it is not using absolute paths for anything? If this is the case, the new server can probably just have a virtual directory in IIS off the root for /police, that points to the physical path for about/offices/police And by the way, I hope you are not using the same mainframe my dad installed there in the late 70's.

Re: cfqueryparam EncodeForHTML
cfqueryparam will not prevent the malicious data from getting entered into the table. However it does prevent the malicious text from executing as T-SQL. cfqueryparam does not parse or cleanse data in any way. Basically it passes the text as a variable to the sql statement. Thus preventing any malicious code in the text from executing. So instead of T-SQL actually executing like this: select * from myTable where x='some'; delete * from myTable --' cfqueryparam is actually running T-SQL something like this. select * from myType where x= @aVar CF and the database driver are assigning @aVar your text string, @aVar = some'; delete * from myTable -- . So the value of the string inside the variable can never be execute, as it is not part of the actual T-SQL syntax. Just a variable value at that point. You can specify a data type to the query param. So if you specified cf_sql_integer and attempted to insert text with that parameter you would get an T-SQL error data type mismatch of sorts. Hope this helps explain a bit. ~Byron ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:359558 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: cfqueryparam EncodeForHTML
Larry, You are already using cfqueryparam so you are protected for the most part. I say most part, because you could still extract the data from the db and have bad consequences if you are not considerate of the underlying data and how you use it. Like querying malicious data and using it in another cfquery without cfqueryparam. In general it is best practice to save data as it was transmitted and in as raw a format as possible and leave the logic up to the application on how to proceess and present data. Could get rebuttals on that but it is my preference. That said, it's not that you shouldn't or can't html encode. You just need to make the decision based on the requirements at hand. If you're storing html code for presentation later, this may very well make sense, where doing so for a company name probably does not. +1 on being so security aware.

Re: Distributive Mode
We actually run our internal CF sites in distributed mode. CF10+ works better than 9-. Previously it seems to work very slow and the clustering well, just plain sucked. And yes, you can accomplish pretty much the same thing with reverse proxy. The distributed methodology is still useful (proxy or connector method) as CF can still peg CPU from time to time, and if you have other non-CF sites on the web server (we have like 10 others), it is nice to have these running while the lone CF site dies a horrible death on different servers. My best suggestion for easily configuring, would be to install IIS on the CF server, run the wsconfig.exe in the c:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\runtime\bin. This will create the configuration files as well as the handler mappings and virtual directory for the isapi_redirect.dll. Don't remove these so you can use them as a reference for setting up your web servers the same way. Copy the c:\ColdFusion10\config to your web server from the CF server. Then recreate the IIS handler mappings and jakarta virtual directory to mimic the CF server's IIS configuration. You will also have to add the isapi_redirect.dll as an allowed executable. You can see this on the CF server as well in IIS under the server root ISAPI restrictions. Make sure the website application pool user has write permission to the 'config' directory. The connector is more beneficial than a proxy in my opinion, as if you have more than one CF server on the backend, it can act as a load balancer of sorts. We have 12 CF instances backing our stuff, you can manually change the isapi_redirect worker files to create a pseudo cluster. You can also do things like redirect specific sites or sub-folders to a particular CF instances. One example I have is a CF service that routinely timeout and kills the server (as it calls another SOAP service off-site). I have this particular file redirected to one of the CF instances to minimize it killing others and effecting other sites. You can probably do the pseudo clustering as well with a redirect proxy. But the connector seems to be a more simple solution IMHO. 20 ways to catch a fish. The documentation for the Tomcat connnector is here: http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/iis.html Don't follow the instructions for setting it up with IIS, it has stuff about registry keys and such, and they are not necessary. Just use it for a reference for the properties in the config files. Here is a snippet from our workers.properties file for the cluster (oh when I say cluster it's not really a CF cluster, the connector acts like a simple load balancer between your CF instances). Your ports may differ than 8013. I think 8009 is the default. You can see this in your CF instance in the web.xml file for tomcat under: c$\ColdFusion10\cfusion\runtime\conf\server.xml. Look for something like this, which also may be commented out. If so you will need to un-comment and restart CF. Connector port=8013 redirectPort=8443 protocol=AJP/1.3 tomcatAuthentication=false/ # workers.properties worker.list=cluster-1 worker.cluster-1.type=lb worker.cluster-1.balance_workers=cfusion-3,cfusion-5 worker.cluster-1.sticky_session=true worker.cfusion-3.type=ajp13 worker.cfusion-3.host=10.78.4.57 worker.cfusion-3.port=8013 worker.cfusion-3.max_reuse_connections=250 worker.cfusion-3.lbfactor=1 worker.cfusion-3.route=cfusion-3 worker.cfusion-5.type=ajp13 worker.cfusion-5.host=10.78.4.58 worker.cfusion-5.port=8013 worker.cfusion-5.max_reuse_connections=250 worker.cfusion-5.lbfactor=1 worker.cfusion-5.route=cfusion-5 Then your uriworkermap.properties would look something like this, we removed some of the default stuff: # uriworkermap.properties /rest/* = cluster-1 /*.cfml/* = cluster-1 /*.mxml = cluster-1 /*.cfm = cluster-1 /*.cfm/* = cluster-1 /*.cfml = cluster-1 /*.cfc = cluster-1 /*.cfc/* = cluster-1 Since you've used this in the past you probably already know, it's a good idea to mimic the same directory structure for your web apps between CF and web server. We use DFRS to replicate all the files, but other methods will work as well.

Re: Avoiding a boat load of queries inserting multiple records - Better Way?
Ideally I would also suggest SSIS for this, but sounds like a total
re-write might be out of the question.
This is what I would probably try, maybe breaking the number of records
done during one transaction into something reasonable depending on server
performance. Believe the OUTPUT clause is supported down to sql 2005.
cfquery
begin tran
cfloop
INSERT INTO listTable (email, fname, lname, other)
OUTPUT #req.thisGROUPID#, inserted.listID
INTO nl_catREL (groups_id, email_id)
VALUES ('#mailREC[CurrentRow][1]#', '#mailREC[CurrentRow][2]#',
'#mailREC[CurrentRow][3]#', '#mailREC[CurrentRow][4]')
/cfloop
commit tran
/cfquery
I was on a 2005 sql server, so I'm not sure if the multiple VALUES clause
will work, but if so I would imagine this would be even more efficient.
cfquery
begin tran
INSERT INTO listTable (email, fname, lname, other)
OUTPUT #req.thisGROUPID#, inserted.listID
INTO nl_catREL (groups_id, email_id)
VALUES
cfloop
('#mailREC[CurrentRow][1]#', '#mailREC[CurrentRow][2]#',
'#mailREC[CurrentRow][3]#', '#mailREC[CurrentRow][4]') ,
/cfloop
commit tran
/cfquery
You'd have to re-write this to account for the extra comma of course.

Re: Why this regex takes so long?
Think this has something to do with the Regex itself. I stink at them;
however try plugging it in here:

It returns something about catastrophic backtracking.

Hi, I'm having a problem with a scheduled task that chokes my server.
Its role is to analyse bounced messages.
I have been able to identify where it blocks, when analysing a line like
this one with the regex below:
Message-id: 26823262.22036.1411993378646.JavaMail.NS4007563$@127.0.0.1
CFSET regEx =
[A-Za-z0-9_](\.?[A-Za-z0-9_\-]+)*@[A-Za-z0-9_\-\.]+(\.[A-Za-z]{2,6})
The server seems to get stuck in an infinite loop.
Actually, the problem is that the function REfind takes much too long.
I narrowed the problem to the following code which shows that the time
taken grows exponentially with the number of characters and is anyway
abnormaly long :
CFSET line=00$@
CFSET regEx = ([A-Z0-9]+)*@
CFLOOP INDEX=n FROM=1 TO=10
CFSET line = 0 line
CFSET deb=getTickCount()
CFSET result = REFindNocase (regEx, line)
CFSET time = (getTickCount()-deb)/1000
CFOUTPUT
line = (#len(line)# char. = #line#
result = #result# in #time# sec.BR/CFOUTPUT
/CFLOOP
And the result is:
line = (17 char. = 000$@ result = 17 in 0.055 sec.
line = (18 char. = $@ result = 18 in 0.028 sec.
line = (19 char. = 0$@ result = 19 in 0.063 sec.
line = (20 char. = 00$@ result = 20 in 0.113 sec.
line = (21 char. = 000$@ result = 21 in 0.224 sec.
line = (22 char. = $@ result = 22 in 0.447 sec.
line = (23 char. = 0$@ result = 23 in 0.902 sec.
line = (24 char. = 00$@ result = 24 in 1.787 sec.
line = (25 char. = 000$@ result = 25 in 3.574 sec.

Re: CF10 creating extra CFID/CFTOKEN cookies at the domain level
If your Application has setclientcookies=yes, which is the default, a cookie/session will be created for each host used by the client to access the site. So domain.com,www.domain.com, 127.0.0.1, could all be the same physical web site, but would have 3 different cookies and sessions generated. You mentioned you setup a redirect to www. If the redirect is done via cflocation, then you would still see 2 CF cookies at the client, since the client actually is hitting both host names. A web server redirect would resolve this, so the client never really gets to domain.com as a CF request, hence no cfid/cftoken cookie. Another common issue I have seen is a login session occurring under www, but somewhere in the application a link goes to the non wwwîª host, which could result in a dropped session/login depending on how things are coded.

Re: cf incorrectly thinks compiled java byte code is correct
Can you post the code for the set_first_name.cfm? firstName variable is undefined. I have seen this type of error before when the variable is set to null. Something like a web service call that fails or really does not return anything. In this instance setName might be a function that returns 'void', so firstName would be null. cfinvoke method=setName webservice=...?wsdl returnvariable=firstname . /cfinvoke You could test this by checking isNull(firstname). I would think if the byte code was incorrect you would not be getting CF error details about what is going on and probably get some sort of java servlet 503 error instead. Byron On Wed, Sep 17, 2014 at 5:07 PM, Dave Watts dwa...@figleaf.com wrote: How do you know this? What do you mean exactly by incorrectly compiled? What version of CF are you running? What are the exact error messages you're seeing? The reason I know it's not being compiled correctly is because when this issue occurs, the errors that happen are indicative of the .cfm file being in place, but the byte code being empty. What I mean is, let's say page.cfm does a cfinclude on a high volume file called set_first_name.cfm which simply sets a variable called firstName. If that file is corrupted in the way I am describing, a firstName variable is undefined error would occur when firstName was referenced back in page.cfm (after the cfinclude). Because even though the included set_first_name.cfm file does indeed exist, the byte code that was generated is behaving as if it is blank (for lack of a better term). I haven't personally examined the byte code, but 1) I don't have access to the live server, and 2) I wouldn't really know how to read it. Well, my take on this is that you wouldn't see this problem if the file is corrupted. Instead, the entire page would simply fail to render unless you had the CFINCLUDE in a CFTRY/CFCATCH. The generated byte code has to be a fully-formed Java class that conforms to the Java Servlet API, and it seems to me to be unlikely that the class would be created correctly but just without your custom code. Again, I don't know enough about the internals of CF to guarantee this, but I do know a little bit about compilers and Java, and it seems unlikely. It would be useful if you could simply compare the bytecode size between good and bad versions of the same compiled class, if you could access those from the live server. They may be written to disk, in the cfclasses directory, if you have Save cache files to disk enabled in the CF Administrator. I've never seen this problem, even in many high-volume environments - some of which had their own problems. And it doesn't really make sense, given my (admittedly limited) knowledge of CF internals. So, I kind of think this is unlikely. Something else is probably happening. You may be right, but this is what we're experiencing. I also admit a limited knowledge of CF internals. I guess what I'm getting at here is: you definitely have a problem. But I don't think your description of the cause of the problem is accurate at all, and you could easily go down a rabbit-hole here by focusing on what you imagine is the cause of the problem, rather than the problem itself. The basic description of the problem is that you're not getting the output under load that you get without load, right? What happens if you block incoming traffic to the server, stop and restart the CF service, and rerun the same pages, with Save cache files to disk enabled? My guess is that you'll get the correct output. That article isn't really related, although it could solve the problem you describe. You can precompile CF code, then deploy that instead of the source code. You could try doing this to solve your problem, but again I don't think that's really the problem you're having. I agree that the article is only somewhat related, but it is related in the fact that, yes, there seems to be some sort of problem with the compilation process. We have thought about deploying the compiled code, but wanted to see if anyone else had experienced this problem first. You could certainly try to just deploy compiled classes and see what happens. It's generally a good thing to do in production anyway. Another approach you could try is to force the server to precompile everything by running a test script that generates an HTTP request for each CF file before you open access to users.

If there is an error in your error handling code you will get a hard

Change this:
cfcatch type=Anycfset get_imginfo.ImgWidth=0cfset

get_imginfo.ImgWidth=0cfset get_imginfo.ImgHeight=0/cfcatch

It runs this in a loop over a bunch of images and works until it hits
the bad file... but it's ignoring my CFTRY and still throwing a hard
error.
Anyone have any ideas on why the CRFTY/CFCATCH is not working. Is
there a problem because I'm catching a cfscript block?

Re: deleting an image after using cfimage
Just to add a bit. This is not limited to just CFimage. CF file functions and tags exhibit the same behavior. Although, in my experience has been better with version 9+. Seems like CF is a bit asynchronous with writing files. So a file write, immediately followed by another file action like move or delete, will sometimes fail. I have done similar things like Russ mentioned to deal with the issue. Usually, I will just leave the old file, and next time into the function/process add a check for old files and remove them. Another option is to write to a system temp directory that gets wiped on reboot. All dependent on the requirement of course.

Re: Scheduled Tasks Not Attempted
Do you have logging your scheduled tasks enabled? Might shed some light. Does a CF restart fix the issue? Are these setup as clustered? If so I would check server time-stamps between CF and DB servers to ensure they are correct. Not sure if this would really matter, as I would think CF would just use the DB server timestamp as authoritative in a clustered setup, but probably worth checking. I would recommend removing the task and rescheduling them. I've had to do this before where a task would not run for whatever reason. ~ Byron Mann Lead Engineer and Architect HostMySite ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:359167 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: ColdFusion hangs or slow when several datasources are not found
Check your DSN settings, and set the login timeout to something reasonable like 5 seconds. The default is 30 seconds. You may have to tweak this a bit based on the time it takes to actually authenticate to your DB servers. All our DBs are local to the network and I've never had issue with a 5 second timeout. Also ensure you DSN have maintain database connection checked. This is a performance tweak in general. This forces CF to reuse the connection and reduces the overhead running a query. What is happening is CF is still attempting to connect to the DB server as needed. Each thread doing so, will wait until the login timeout is met before terminating. CF has a finite number of threads, which is outlined in the CFAdmin. The threads are getting used up by the waiting DB requests, once this reaches the maximum number of threads, additional requests are queued and you will begin to see slowness. Something like a cascade effect. The 5 seconds won't solve the issue all around. It just releases those threads faster. Depending on the number of queries attempting to run on the failed DB server. You may still see slowness. ~Byron Mann Lead Engineer Architect HostMySite ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:359163 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: EMail Injection Attack
Make sure the cfmail option for logging sent mail is enabled via the CFAdmin. This will tell you if CF is actually sending the mail. The log file will be in your CF root under logs. I think it's mailsent.log. Most likely one of two things. You have a web form that sends through another template using the cfmail tag which does no human checking, like a Captcha or checking the delay between page load and send request. Or you have an open relay with the mail server that is being used by CF to send mail, and CF is not actually the issue. Your mail server logs can log this, log location will vary based on the server used. There are several online tools to check if your mail server has an open relay. http://mxtoolbox.com/diagnostic.aspx ~Byron On Mon, Aug 18, 2014 at 3:56 PM, Garry Tran tran.ga...@gmail.com wrote: Hi All - Recently we've been under a email injection attack where we have unauthorized emails being sent through our coldfusion application.

Re: EMail Injection Attack
No really good way in CF logs that I know to see the actual file that sent the CFMail. Might be able to correlate your web server access logs to the cf mail sent log with the timestamp. Most of the time attacks like this will be all at once, so it should be fairly easy to see in the web logs. ~Byron On Mon, Aug 18, 2014 at 4:12 PM, G T tran.ga...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Robert - Thanks for the reply, yes of course let me explain a bit more.

Re: Emails MIA
Your hosting provider should troubleshoot this if they will not provide the SMTP logs. We do not usually provide entire logs either, but will attempt to find the pertinent records and provide them. Should be easy enough to parse the logs if you provide an approximate time the email was sent and email address for the destination. Provider should also check to see if it just never made it off the local server. Could be the endpoint mail server was unresponsive at the time. Most email server will queue and retry a few times after a certain time period, but eventually fail and hold Your provider may also have an outbound spam filter trapping the email. This might account for it not making it to the end point. Use a failto in cfmail as it may provide you some detail. If the mail isn't making it off the server, it should bounce to the failto. I do agree with Russ a shared web server sending mail through localhost is usually a bad thing. We stopped allowing this. Just too many customers who have compromised forms that abusers use to send spam. So we now require smtp auth to send via their shared mail server (makes it easier to track abuse) or suggest an external mail service.

Re: Query columns shifting
I've seen this before when the query was previously a SELECT * and modified to SELECT col1, col2, * ..., or is a SELECT * and the database schema is modified, or other similar scenario. Only way I remember resolving this was a CF restart. I think when SELECT * is used there is some sort of caching (on the CF side) of the column names and positions that occurs. Even changing the name attribute in the cfquery has no effect. I don't remember seeing this happening in CF 10, but pretty sure it was still happening in CF 9. For this and others, I always explicitly state the columns, and even more so use stored procedures over inline queries whenever possible. -- Regards, Byron Mann Lead Engineer Architect HostMySite On Tue, Jul 29, 2014 at 8:00 AM, Michael Christensen mich...@strib.dk wrote: Hey guys Got at bit of a weird thing going on in my code...

Re: multithreaded job....can i programmatically ignore waiting for threads?
Cfthread does have a terminate action. https://wikidocs.adobe.com/wiki/display/coldfusionen/cfthread You could do some sort of loop that checks the status of the threads every second or so, pausing with the sleep function. When you hit your exception, loop over the threads to terminate those threads requiring it. Alternately, your thread join can have a timeout. You could put a maximum wait time. Then loop the threads and terminate those not completed and throw an error.

Re: Insite Help on CF Hanging?
Are the client variables in a database? If so, I would run a query on the CF tables to get a count of records. It could be your attack was worse than you think and have a boat load of records. An attack like that would likely result in a set of client variables for each request. The query to purge the database will lock the tables. Any application using client variables would basically have to wait until that is done and keep chewing up memory. I know this was an issue in CF8, not sure if it's still a linger issue in newer versions, as that is around the time we stopped using client variables. @Mark, I want to say both CF 9 10 install with Cookie as the default client storage. This could just be how we provision our servers however. I remember the days of CF taking an hour to start if your client var registry was out of control.

They may be in a corporate, hosted or government environment that dictates otherwise. If php and CF are running locally on the server, I would opt for the command line method, as it will perform better. If this is a hosted environment a POST method will probably be the better option since many hosts lock down cfexecute in the sandbox. My million dollar idea would be to write a CF/Php compiler.

RE: The state of Statlessness
I wonder if something server side could handle this maybe as well. So user initiates a new upload already in progress under the same name, different file or not. Assuming on the server side you could check for uploads in progress already for that user/session, return an error code to the client? Overhead would be minimal as you would only really have to perform the check on the first block of a file being uploaded. Byron Mann Lead Engineer Architect HostMySite.com On Jul 4, 2014 12:07 PM, UXB denn...@uxbinternet.com wrote: Byron, Very curious to know what the scenario is for this requirement. The original requirement was that I was working with a file upload system (Plupload) utilizing the chunk method for uploading files. We needed a way for users to use HTTP to upload gig sized files. In the basic implementation of the system each chunk of the file is uploaded to the server with three multipart form fields; Name, chunk, chunks which contains the actual file name, the chunk being sent and the total number of chunks to send. Each chunk is sent as blob. In testing I found that if someone opened the upload page in two or more browsers windows (as a way of bypassing the number of files at a time in the queue) and started two upload sessions they could easily upload a different file with the same name simultaneously. There was no way to determine which window uploaded which chunk of two different files with eh same name so on the server receiving end they would become intermixed and the file would be corrupted. My first thought was that I needed a way to either to uniquely identify that there were two separate windows of the upload page opened and send that identifier within the extended multipart form fields. In investigating I found that instead I could uniquely identify each file from each instance of the window (see my other thread) even in the same session and thereby prevent file upload corruption.

Re: cfdirectory issue
First I would check the obvious and verify permissions, you just never know. Is this anything like a directory on a file share? Could just be an availability thing then. Anything new outside of code changes? Patches? Other new software installed on the server? Any other software or process possibly locking the directory? Virus scanning? Some other new code unrelated? Is the directory growing and now has a large number of files or directories, Windows doesn't like that so much pre 2008. My first instinct says that another process is doing something occasionally to the directory or files. Might be good to see some code and what version you are on. Are sandboxes in use? I have seen things like creating a file or directory via CF and then accessing that in the next few lines it doesn't exist yet, but that was previous versions, have not seen that with 10±.

Re: DDOS Prevention
I had issue attempting to get that IP restrictions module to work with CF 10. Seems as though the request was getting handed off to CF before hitting the IIS module.

Re: ColdFusion Looping
OK, me==dah, the first 2 examples I just need to increment by 2 (or any
other factor) other than 1. This is what happens without enough coffee.
My actual code in use was like the 3rd example, but it is nested inside
other loops. I had to break the inner loop in differing steps/increments.
Something like this
cfloop from=1 to=#arrayLen(ary)# index='x'
...
cfloop from=#x# to='#arrayLen(ary)# index='y'
cfset x=x+{various value} !-- skip this many now ---
Suffice to say, it was easy enough to fix once I modified to a for
statement and understood what was going on. Just looking at the code for 2
hours and thinking THIS SHOULD WORK was what got me about it all.
I guess in 15 years of CF I've really just never done this or have done by
other means. Just seems perplexing that this particular incarnation would
act differently. I'll add it to the CF quirky list I have in my head.
Thanks everyone for taking a look,
~Byron

When ColdFusion does any looping like this, the y is reset to the actual
loop valuem hence making the manual increment mute. If you want it to step
in lots of 2 then use the step attribute to do this.
As for the first example, what a frigging mess but it does exactly what you
are telling it to do.
The problem with cfscript is that it is more ESMAC compliant, which means
you can increment it when being used in a for loop as you have shown in
your last example.

Re: weird issue with utility
It sounds like maybe the first cfhttp call from the client is ending with
maybe a 500 error at the production.com URI and not really returning a
response to the client. In that instance I can see the first iteration in
the client side loop just stalling, while on the end point side, Fusion
Reactor thinks the request is done.
Do you get output on the client side when just calling the first
iteration...
cfloop index=i from=0 to=-90 step=-1
cfhttp url=http://production.com/?Date=#DateFormat(DateAdd('d', i,
now()), 'm/d/')#

Basically I want to overload an existing method that currently returns a query and return a different json format for the query than just serializing the result set.

Re: CFC Not Returning JSON properly from an array
The default for the return format for a remote cffunction call is WDDX. Sounds like inside your CFC you are serializing the return value first. So something like return serializeJson(myValue); If the return string in this case is JSON, then your remote call to the CFC should include a returnformat=plain, to return the string as is.

Default Values for Built-in Function Optional Parameters
I somehow never had occasion to do this using a CF built-in function, but
would like to by-pass entering some of the optional parameters and use
defaults.
Specifically I've created a caching region, and will just be using the
defaults for the time-outs.
CachePut(id, value, [timeSpan], [idleTime], [region], [throwOnError]);
So I'd like to just do something similar to this:
CachePut(id=x, value=v, region='myregion');
This doesn't work of course. I also tried, argumentCollection without
success.
I'm assuming this is just the way life is and will have to do something to
just pass the region defaults.
cachePut(id, val, CacheGetProperties('myregion').TIMETOIDLESECONDS,
CacheGetProperties('myregion').TIMETOLIVESECONDS, 'myregion');

Re: creditcard-billing-system
There are services like Maxmind that do fraud screening, which could be done before submitting a transaction to a payment gateway. Basically the service returns a fraud potential score, and you can dictate if it is low enough to perform a transaction. There isn't anything baked-into CF to do this. There may be some CF libraries that do a number check to see if the cc number itself is valid, as this is a common algorithm, but more advanced filtering would be through another service.
