Re: CFMail alternative
Where is the like button in here :-) Sendt fra min iPad Den 6. apr. 2013 kl. 21:23 skrev Dave Watts dwa...@figleaf.com: it has been shown on all the reported instances I saw that the mails in question never reached the smtp server as did not show in the mail logs on the server despite cf saying hey were sent, and were not in undelivered folder, they simply vanished. So if you have one log file that says CF sent the message successfully, and another log file that says that your mail server didn't receive a message, why do you assume that the mail server log is right and the CF log is wrong? I mean, there's a big difference between just failing to deliver a message, and both failing to deliver a message but also logging that the message was sent! I can think of one case where I've run into a similar issue, and the root case was a spam filtering measure on the recipient server. CF said it had been sent, but the recipient system (Postini) did not list it. It turned out to be a feature in Postini called Blatant Spam Blocking which caused the incoming message to be dropped and not delivered or even logged by Postini.

Re: DSN Connection String - failover faster/better?

Mvh Helge Hetland WebSite as Den 27. jan. 2011 kl. 03:35 skrev Kris Jones kris.jon...@verizon.net: Hi Brian, I mistyped -- we are running 2k8 in 2k5 compatibility mode. I took the advice of my sysadmin who is also a certified MSSQL guy (and a really smart one too). With Mirroring you can specify the failover partner in the connection string. You have a primary, and a secondary. When the primary fails, the secondary becomes the primary, and when the failed server comes back online, it becomes secondary. This is all transparent (as far as I know, and based on what I've been told and read). I really don't know how a DB cluster would better suit our needs. The failover is plenty fast actually -- it's just that I'd like to have it so that CF doesn't have to return a connection failure to the caller before failing over. Naturally it needs to see the failure, but I'd hope there'd be something in the connection that would re-try once if it were configured for mirror w/ failover partner? We're running a 12-instance CF Cluster, and it returns a failed connection for each instance. Given a user Joe, and a not so busy application, let's say that Joe logs on, and hits an instance. The primary has failed, so Joe gets an error. Being a persistent guy, Joe then reloads the page, where he hits another instance, and gets another error. And so on, and so on. Luckily, we're talking more than 1 server, with LB w/ sticky session in front of the cluster. So Joe will only get this a maximum of 4 times. But this same scenario would have to happen on each of the instances across the cluster. And I'd rather not have the error return to Joe (or any user) in the first place.

RE: Clustering ColdFusion - some black holes
Goal: One rock stable high performance ColdFusion cluster with session replication and quick failover Is there a specific requirement for session replication? Because you might get generally better results if you just use sticky sessions. That buys you load balancing, but not complete failover - but it may be enough, if your failure rate is acceptably low. I've set up session replication for a couple of clients, and the whole thing just seemed a bit fragile to me.

RE: Clustering ColdFusion - some black holes

(not ticking of the replicate sessions this time.. :)) -- JRun instances All new CF instances is created from the default CFusion instance which is shut down and never used after the setup is done (same goes with JRun Admin Instance) Internal webserver on every CF instance is active with separate port addresses and separate instance names (8300 for admin, 8301 for instance one cfusion1, 8302 for instance two cfusion2, 8303 for instance 3 cfusion3 on physical server #2 etc.) Every CF instance have the remote port (JNDI port) set unique (both server wide and cluster wide) Clustering setup On one server (CFadmin / Instance manager) all remote instances is registered On the same server one cluster is created with round robin / sticky sessions / and replicate sessions set All instances is added to the clusters (for example 6 instances on 3 physical servers on the same subnet) (After this the servers is physically restarted) Connector setup On every physical server the Web Server Configuration Tool is run On every physical server the IIS webserver is configured with this settings: JRun Host: [The server where cluster was created initially] JRun Server: [The cluster name] All IIS websites (The server has multiple websites, hundreds) Configure web server for cf 7/8/9 apps - Regards, Helge -Original Message- From: Mark A.

Re: DirectoryWatcher Event Gateway
You should try to setup dfs replication between the two servers / directory structures instead of using watch folders. That would be more efficient and would also give you near real time sync between the two servers. set and forget Mvh Helge Hetland WebSite AS Den 5. nov. 2010 kl. 16:50 skrev Jake Churchill reyna...@gmail.com: I'm using the directory watcher event gateway to sync files between 2 servers that are load balanced. The client uses both file upload tools and local shares to update files (all located in an images directory). They have 2 sites and the images directory on one site is pushing 2GB and the other is about 1.2GB. So, I have 2 directory watcher instances running, one for each image directory. This is the same directory watcher, I just load 2 different config files. When images are added to server 1, they are copied to server 2, same for changes and deletes. My question is the following: I've never used directory watchers before. I have these scheduled to run at 5 minute incremenets and when they run the processor usage increases to over 30%. It makes me nervous consistently using this much proc so I want to know if this is normal. Is there a more efficient way to sync images between servers using coldfusion? FYI, the images are not all in the images directory, there are about 20 sub-directories and the directory watchers run recursively. The server this is running on is quite powerful. It's a 64bit windows server 2003 with a quad-core proc and 8GB RAM. The JVM has been tuned for this machine. This is CF8 Standard.

The AIR client is not open source yet. That may happen in the future. For service and support there is an optional annual $85.00 service fee. If you haven't heard of Merlin yet. There is a online demo at http://www.merlinmanager.com. It is a management and monitoring system for ColdFusion servers. Unlike Adobe's CF 9 Manager, Merlin works on ColdFusion 7, 8 and 9. It also has monitoring for versions 8 9. With Merlin you can save server configuration snapshots and restore them across multiple servers. It also includes a handy update and patch management system to keep your systems up-to-date.

that I explicitly set margin and padding to zero for my 'container' style.

The other difference that I noticed is in how your code includes styles.

Split testing A/B pages with Cold Fusion
Hello, I am trying to make a split testing script to track two landing pages. Should I: a) Just use random() to select the page assuming I'll end up with even distribution (its 50/50 no?) b) Store the last viewed page in an application var, single thread it, and toggle it on each visit to load the correct page and prepare it for the next request. Will this be a bottleneck? It would be a pretty small piece of code.. What do you ya'll think? While I'm posting, I am also going to be recording page views vs. actions (form completions). My idea was to create a UUID on the first visit, update the pageview table (record the UUID) and write the UUID to a cookie. When the form gets submitted, check for the UUID cookie and update the pageAction table. My question is, does it make more sense to store the stats in two tables (viewStats / actionStats) or to combine them into one table with bit fields for view / action ? BTW, I read http://jochem.vandieten.net/tag/uuid/ which sheds some light on using UUIDs and optimizing them for SQL Server. I was going to try to use java.util.UUID to generate the UUID and see how that works out.. Brook ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

I'd enjoy getting a $400 product that I can customize for clients. But if I were to ask a client out here for that up front (instead of at the end), then I wouldn't have the client. It's tough enough to get the client to pay 50% down nowadays. BTW, if anyone DOES have a client they are too busy to handle who is willing to drop $400 at the start and needs an ecommerce solution, I'll be glad to take them off your hands. :) Thank you for the advice, but I still have to go with CFShopKart at the moment.

How to make CF 8.0 and IIS6 respond to OPTIONS method
Hello, If you want CF to respond to a cross domain XHR request in Firefox 3.5 and IE8 (I'm not too sure about the IE8 implementation), preflighted requests may be required. Meaning an OPTIONS method is used to request Access Control headers from the remote server (The CF server) that indicate if the request can continue. This is explained really well here: https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Server-Side_Access_Control In PHP/Apache, you could craft the header response as shown here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTTP_access_control But I can not get IIS 6.0 on Win2003 Server to pass a request (with the OPTIONS method) to CF. The CF Mapping in IIS is set to 'all verbs', But CF never gets the request. IIS responds with the default headers. How do I get CF to handle the request so I can dynamically craft the headers to return? Brook Davies ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Cross Domain XHR in FireFox 3.5 with jQuery and Preflighted requests
Hi Everyone, This one has been driving me bug eyed for a couple days now. Hopefully someone here has some ideas. As of FireFox 3.5, Mozilla has implemented the w3cs Cross-Origin Resource Sharing recommendation (http://dev.w3.org/2006/waf/access-control/). I am trying to implement this in my ajax based web app so that I can develop locally (localhost) and make requests to my live server. Mozilla has a great explanation of how to craft requests and response headers here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTTP_access_control I am using jQuery and ajaxCFC for my requests, jQuery adds a custom header, which forces the request to be 'preflighted'. What this means is that an OPTION method request is sent to the server before the actual request to see if the request is valid/supported. The server is supposed to respond with the allowed headers something like this: Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://foo.example Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST, GET, OPTIONS Access-Control-Allow-Headers: X-PINGOTHER Access-Control-Max-Age: 1728000 My problem is that the request to the CFC via the OPTIONS method never gets a response, the CFC not the application.CFC ever execute. The only way I can get it to work is to set the headers within the IIS HTTP Headers. But I don't want to do this for all requests, only when needed, when the method is OPTIONS and I would like to be able to further validate the request. But the request never gets to Cold Fusion. In firebug, the request looks like this: OPTIONS http://www.myserver.com/app/adapter/publicAdapter.cfc?method=pingreturnform at=json Host: www.myserver.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive Origin: http://localhost Access-Control-Request-Method: POST Connection: close Date: Wed, 08 Jul 2009 15:58:04 GMT Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0 Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST,GET,OPTIONS Access-Control-Allow-Headers: X-Requested-With,If-Modified-Since,Accept,Content-Type Access-Control-Max-Age: 1728000 Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://localhost Allow: GET, HEAD, POST, TRACE, OPTIONS The response headers are the headers I have set manually in IIS. The actual CFC never gets called. I checked in IIS and the application extension mapping for CFC is set to all verbs and yet the request never gets to CF. I added some logging in application.cfc onRequestStart and nothing. So does anyone have any idea how to do a preflighted request so that cold fusion can respond? Or is this an IIS issue where IIS is not passing the OPTIONS request to CF? Brook Davies Logiforms.com ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

So that represents lots of scalability issues in designing the application which i'm giving a lot of thought. But its the remote printing to a whole variety of locations, where there will be no interaction with the system apart from a non-IT trained person picking up the printed out put and executing the job.It's the connectivity to all those devices and how to trigger the printing that gives me cause to ponder. We can have intelligence on that device so it can format printing and all that if i sent it a XML packet or some such. It would be good to be able to require only a power point there if possible - so they plug it into the power, turn it on at the wall and its available to the system by itself. that way there's no need for us to provide keyboards, screens, training etc if that is at all possible. Certainly no specialised staff. I'm sorry if i have to be a bit vague about the actual specifics of the app - its still in progress and once launch i can say more. But since we're only now scoping out the job launch is a while away yet.

A new session cookie is issued by the instance but it's again ignored on the next request, starting the cycle all over again.

RE: Session stickiness breaks in CF 8
Is the built in web server disabled? We were having a similar issue, the fix was to disable internal web server in jrun for each instance. (Then it's difficult to access the admin interfaces on the cluster instances, but it's possible by forcing the jsessionid..) -Helge -Original Message- From: James Holmes [mailto:james.hol...@gmail.com] Sent: 10. februar 2009 4:30 To: cf-talk Subject: Session stickiness breaks in CF 8 We have an issue with our CF8.01 clusters in that sticky sessions will intermittently break. The behaviour is very strange; the JSESSIONID cookie seems to be ignored and the request is sent to the wrong server by the Apache connector. A new session cookie is issued by the instance but it's again ignored on the next request, starting the cycle all over again. This will happen as long as the browser is open or until all session cookies are cleared. Clearing the session cookies in the browser results in the expected behaviour (session sticks to one instance). I've read this: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_18680 and we're trying to see if this occurs only after a graceful restart of Apache, but since clearing session cookies in the browser fixes the issue we're not convinced it's the same thing.

RE: Access individual instances in a cluster without JWS?
Hi, That would work if our app was less complex, too much work involved.. We've developed on it the last 8 years and have used the session scope since it was possible. We use sticky sessions and also cookie based persistence in the load balancer (Coyote) and it's pretty stable, users is seldom balanced over to the other servers - but session replication would make it even more stable. Helge -Original Message- From: Jason Fisher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 7. november 2008 19:39 To: cf-talk Subject: Re: Access individual instances in a cluster without JWS? The other clustering approach is to use Client scope rather than Session scope. To overly simplify things, Client scope is a contract between the user's browser and the application, whereas Session scope is a contract between the user's browser and the server. Since Client scope can maintain state with the application, a user can be seamlessly bounced from server to server without loss of data / connection. Works really well behind hardware load balancing, for example. Not so sure it fits your situation, but thought I'd at least mention it in case. Just remember to never, ever use Registry as your Client scope store. It's the CF default, but it can quickly overwhelm server swapspace. Go ahead and use a datasource instead. ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:315004 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Re: Efflare Imageflare1.5 Issue
I'm using Efflare's ImageFlare 1.5 tag for a variety of image operations (resizing, compositing etc.) in our application. Things have been running great for the past year and then all of a sudden a week ago, we started seeing the tag crash on us: ImageFlare CR Exception [LoadFailed:140425] or ImageFlare CR Exception [SaveFailed:150420] .The error is intermittant...a page which calls the tag will fail the first time it is called and then be OK the second or third time. Seems like its running at about a 2% failure rate. We're running CF8; no code or configuration changes have been made for at least 6 weeks preceeding the issue. Our server usage has been climbing steadily, but the issue manifests itself regardless of the server load. Anybody else encounter anything like this? ImageFlare 1.5 uses the ImageCR 3 engine. Exceptions are a feature we added to ImageCR 3. They work like any other kind of exception and throw a proper ColdFusion exception. Exceptions can be disabled with THROWEXCEPTIONS=0 and errors can still be checked with the imagecr.error* return values. Load and save failures are valid handled exceptions indicating a problem loading or saving a file as directed. The possible causes are numerous and can range from something as simple as a bad filename to something as obscure as mis-configured hardware. Load failures which occur only on the first attempted load are usually the result of a concurrency dilemma in the system. What usually happens is the file in question is not yet fully available at the time ImageCR is called, but will become fully available soon. Web developers are usually protected from this by a database, but dealing directly with file I/O, particularly with large amounts of heavily processed data (images), can lead to concurrency dilemmas. In addition, hardware and/or OS configuration can make the problem worse, particularly if configured for speed instead of stability. The most common culprit is write caching after an http upload. If write caching is enabled on the disk drive, when the server sends a write command to the drive, it immediately tells the computer that the write operation is completed (even though the data has not yet been written to the disk). The data is stored in the write cache and written to the disk later (when the write head has been positioned over the data area and the disk has rotated to the location where the data will be written). By immediately telling the computer the data is written, the computer does not have to wait and can go on with its computing tasks. Eliminating the time the computer waits for writes to complete may improve system performance. There is a small amount of time where the host software thinks the data is safely written on the disk, yet it is held in volatile cache memory on the disk drive. The host server has no visibility that the information sent to the disk drive was not written to the media since all commands are returned with good status to the system. From: http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/technolo/writecache/writecache.htm On a related note, does anyone know if Efflare is still supporting this tag because I have not been able to rouse them through any of their regular support channels.

Re: What in the world is CF8 trying to say?
I would like to let people know CFX_JPG is an old, retired product. The problem is a namespace collision on the variable name image. The problem was dealt with on the release of ImageCR 3 some years ago. -- Magnus Just reread this, figured I'd clarify, I do not think scoping Image in this instance would fix it but certainly could try it. Was not aware of Image being used for something specific in 8, but guess perhaps scoping it might avoid a conflict with something else in the code on the page and not seen in the snippet. Probably the tag itself not liking the newer version of CF, honestly if I relied so heavily on a custom tag then I'd done some heavy testing with it prior to spending the money to upgrade versions. On 10/14/07, Aaron Rouse [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: A way around things like this without renaming things is to just scope it. We ran into a similar problem going to I think it was CF6 when part of some applications did #URL# and all we had to do was go in there and put queryName.URL and was fixed. Of course one could argue that the names of things should not be so generic which could hopefully prevent the possibility of referencing a variable name that later turns into a reserved word or is used for something else. Now in this particular case I am guessing Image is something returned by the CFX_JPG tag and that tag is putting it into the local variables scope, so could try referencing it as #Variables.Image.Link# and if that works then a mass find replace on #Image. with #Variables.Image. would probably fix all instances in the application(s).

RE: What hw to use for loadbalancing
Hi, No, the terminal servers is on another net, but since they are the only ones with problems I was guessing that it has something to do with NLB on both systems. We run with multicast/no IGMP, and with a hub on front of the cluster to prevent problems with switch flooding. And single affinity The equipment is connected to the internet via Checkpoint firewall with port rules etc. (We haven't got any control of this other than wich ports to be open etc.) I'm doing some more checking after the upgrade to 7.x. Anyways it's smart to switch to a HW based solution for loadbalancing. It's better than Windows NLB clustering on most aspects?

What hw to use for loadbalancing
Hello, What (lower priced) options other than F5 Big IP LTM have I got when I need to loadbalance 3 CFMX servers? 3 x CFMX 7.x Enterprise on W2003 / IIS6 F5 is a bit expensive -18kUSD for Big-IP LTM 1500 What I basically need is something that works better than W2003 NLB.

Re: Image processing
I would just like to say we officially disagree with this assessment. We process over 50 thousand images daily with ImageCR and stand behind our products 100%, as we have for years. We will address any possible issues by mail: support-imagecr at efflare.com. We are considering a Java wrapper, but it should be remembered Java itself wraps non-Java libraries for similar functionality. -- Magnus Luis, why you will going to change to the Alagad Image Component I'd like to switch to Alagad mostly due it's CFC'ness and the fact that it's all native java within cf. Also, the 500 image limitation we ran into w/ imagecr3. Other than that, I have no real reasons. I plan to do the prudent testing and research against both options the next time this topic comes up. Right now, I just don't have the time. ImageCR3 is very good. Pros: fast, flexible, reliable. Cons: 500 batch limit, if you give it the wrong combo of attributes you can take down cf :( but that's stuff you work out in the development phases of your projects. If you are still trying to decide, download the eval editions of both and run some tests on the exact functions you need to perform. I'd be interested in the results.

RE: (OT) Firewall
Checkpoint solutions is easy to setup and manage. Tha hardware / software bundles (for example NOKIA IP130) is very close to a solid state firewall if such a thing existed :) http://www.checkpoint.com/products/choice/platforms.html IMHO...

Zonealarm is good for a single machine, but I think that mothernature.com needs a system wide firewall. What do you use, what do you suggest?

RE: how to open an attached file in its own application (ms-word, excel etc).. please read
Hello, You should have a look at webdav / webfolders etc. (www.webdav.org is one place to start..) It enables users to save (work with) documents via the http server, and it's also possible to check out/in documents. As far as I've found out webdaw in IIS requires authentication to the windows domain for access control - making it unsuitable/costly for hosted environments(?). (SharePoint portal server makes use of webfolders/webdav using integrated authentication in IIS) I've been searching for alternatives but it seems all other options is apache and/or *nix. I would be *very* interested in what you find out around this subject. :) Good luck!

RE: Web Service and cannot find component error
Has anyone actually tried to create a CFC that is used as a Web Service, and within that CFC it invokes another CFC?? I cannot for the life of me figure out why CF throws a Cannot find component error (works under all normal circumstances). I am missing something? Assume the whatever. bit is a CF mapping. Seems like a pretty obvious thing to do -- building a Web Service to wrap around an already existing application...

Re: Image manipulation

The 8x10, 5x7, and 4x6 are for downloading, saving, and printing...that's what I'm trying to accomplish. Anyone know what tag can do this? CFX_Image? CF_MagickTag/ImageMagick? CFX_ImageCR from Efflare? If CFX_ImageCR can accomplish all of that... ppi manipulation and resampling, too, then it'll be worth $149, easily... If I understand you correctly, it does. See the RESAMPLE DPI attributes. If you need to retrieve the DPI, we used to provide a tag called CFX_ImageXY to do this for free, but that has since been incorporated into ImageCR 3. ImageCR 3 public release is pending documentation rewrite, which should be done this week. I do not think you will need to retrieve DPI, but you can. The version 3 attributes, RESAMPLE and DPI, are similar to version 2. ImageCR 3 is a free upgrade to ImageCR 2 users and most have been using one of the two release candidates for many months. However, both should do what you want. Feel free to contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] for better tech support.
