RE: SES urls on CFMX 6.1
Geoff, I don't know how this all works, but I see the urls on the homepage like say the features link on the right. http://farcry.daemon.com.au/go/features I assume would be http://farcry.daemon.com.au?go=features without the friendlyURLs correct? But then from the features page the link http://farcry.daemon.com.au/index.cfm?objectid=403F15D0-1033-B4BD-31CCC4 40436CEA09 isn't friendly. Is it not necessary to go that deep?

I have had several CF sites at HostMySite, two with SQL Server. Customer service was excellent; all hours you could always call and get a quick response. Site performance/uptime was generally very good, only a very few times when a server went down briefly -- attributable mostly to early CFMX issues I think.

When I leave the cfdump tag off, I get no error messages. Which leads me to believe that I am connecting to the object with the correct name, because I recieve no error message. When I change the class to something like aPCMServer.PCMServer.1 I get the following message: coldfusion.runtime.com.ComObjectInstantiationException: An exception occurred when instantiating a Com object How the heck can I look at what comprises the COM object from the CF-side when the cfdump tag errors out.

Here is the last post on the list I thought I would share it here. Pasting fromIIS List - Why does OLEDB perform better? Well it is quite simple actually. I'm glad you asked. ADO *requires* having access to an OLEDB provider. So when you use a DSN you are actually using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers. So you pass through the above provider and enter the ODBC drivers. After a certain number of cycles the ODBC code finally figures out your DSN is to connect to SQL. And whoah!! we happen to have an OLEDB provider that can connect to SQL. So ODBC moves on into the OLEDB provider for SQL. Finally we use dbnetlib.dll to make the final connection to SQL, retrieve our data then go back through all the same layers in order to return the data to your ASP page. So my next question for you is... why do ADO-OLEDB for ODBC-ODBC-OLEDB for SQL and need to go through the hastle of setting of DSN's when you can simply do ADO--OLEDB for SQL and not have to setup anything? To create a valid OLEDB connection string: 1. Create a text file somewhere. 2. Rename the text file so it has a UDL extension 3. Double click your new UDL file. 4. Change to the Providers tab and choose Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL 5. Change to the Connection tab and enter the appropriate information 6. Click Okay then open the UDL file with notepad. 7.

Afaik, the only way is to rebuild the query. There is a UDF at cflib.org for this to make it easier. If your 'rows to delete' criteria is a logic test, like Delete rows where column X is 1, then you could use QofQ. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: Query Delete???
There is no function for this and running such a function would be costly in the long run as you mentioned. As for your setup, are you reading and writing the WDDX packet from disk and using that as storage? If so and theres no reason for a query, then save the data as a structure. You would have a lot more control and can set it up to do almost as much as a query can (though with a little more code in some cases).

Re: Query Delete???
The original poster didn't want to rebuild the query due to performance hits on large queries. We were looking for alternate solutions. The UDF you mentioned does a query rebuild so could not be suggested. Still, a comparison between the UDF and a QoQ would be of interest. Like I said...here's the UDF...it does work...not sure why Ray and Michael don't think it will work?? http://www.cflib.org/udf.cfm?ID=11 I've used it before with no problems.I was storing a query ina WDDX packet in a cookie and adding/deleting rows as neededbut hey...mabye your situation is different Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.

Re:Query Delete???
First, let me thank everyone for thier suggestions.I really appreciate the input. Michael, I'm interested in your idea of using structures.I had no idea structures could be saved and recalled.I'm researching this approach now, but if you have any examples, I'd appreciate the push-start. Thanks again, Chris There is no function for this and running such a function would be costly in the long run as you mentioned. As for your setup, are you reading and writing the WDDX packet from disk and using that as storage? If so and theres no reason for a query, then save the data as a structure. You would have a lot more control and can set it up to do almost as much as a query can (though with a little more code in some cases).

Re: Re:Query Delete???
WDDX can store any complex or non-complex data type. You can easily create a structure for your data and store it in the same way your doing now. To access the data you'd use the various struct functions to find and manipulate the data. In many ways, Struct functions are faster than things like QoQ, especially on CFMX. The main problem is that your going to have to plan out your data structures and how to access them. First, let me thank everyone for thier suggestions.I really appreciate the input.

Don't forget that you can't deserialize a CFC if you wddx encode it. Of course, if you want to create a WDDX packet for your CFC, you can always write your own serialize/deserialize methods. [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

OT: Video Rendering
DV Gurus, I have a client who does the following: Take DV and capture to Quicktime using Final Cut Pro 3 (mac osx). Then they take the quicktime and compress and convert it to an MPEG and a WMV. the video contains some speech. On the quick time and the mpeg the speech is correctly synched with the lips of the speaker. On the windows media file (wmv) however the lips are uniformly about .01 seconds behind the audio. Does anyone have any advice on how to convert to a wmv file from quicktime (or whatever). Does anyone have an expertice with cleaner or can anyone recomend a better product for what they are doing? Any advice would be helpful. I'm out of my element on this one. Thanks! -Mark [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: ODBC vs. OLE

Pasting fromIIS List - Why does OLEDB perform better? Well it is quite simple actually. I'm glad you asked. ADO *requires* having access to an OLEDB provider. So when you use a DSN you are actually using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers. So you pass through the above provider and enter the ODBC drivers. After a certain number of cycles the ODBC code finally figures out your DSN is to connect to SQL. And whoah!! we happen to have an OLEDB provider that can connect to SQL. So ODBC moves on into the OLEDB provider for SQL. Finally we use dbnetlib.dll to make the final connection to SQL, retrieve our data then go back through all the same layers in order to return the data to your ASP page. So my next question for you is... why do ADO-OLEDB for ODBC-ODBC-OLEDB for SQL and need to go through the hastle of setting of DSN's when you can simply do ADO--OLEDB for SQL and not have to setup anything? To create a valid OLEDB connection string: 1. Create a text file somewhere. 2. Rename the text file so it has a UDL extension 3. Double click your new UDL file. 4. Change to the Providers tab and choose Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL 5. Change to the Connection tab and enter the appropriate information 6. Click Okay then open the UDL file with notepad. 7.

Re:Wierd CFC Path Problem - Question on CFC types
com works fine on dedicated servers, but just doesn't cut it for shared servers I know well not THIS particular issue but CF + directory mapping + CFCs + shared vs dedicated + Linux vs Windows scenarios. Making the same stuff work in different places is complicated (or it was for me when developing a CFC based WYSIWYG editor). Sometimes it works for me when I use something like CreateObject(component,com/Depressedpress/HelloWorld)...

RE: Query Delete???
An alternative method of storing complex datatypes is to store it as cfscript, e.g. save a file with the following, then cfinclude it: cfscript foo = StructNew(); foo.bar=1; /cfscript There's a udf on cflib (http://www.cflib.org/udf.cfm?ID=713) that will turn a CF var into a cfscript block, but you'll need to do any file writing or whatever. One advantage i've found over wddx is its much simpler and faster to get the data into memory - i've been using it on a couple of busy sites for over 18 months now. Obviously there are plenty of reasons why you might rather use WDDX - horses for courses.

Re: XML and Quark
I think I figured out how to do it. It can be a pain but if you write a DTD for the XML it works pretty good. Getting the information to flow on the page is still a bit of a pain though. If you decide to look into it again, I may be able to help a little. Phillip Kevin Graeme wrote: Phil, If you figure something out, please share. I looked at this briefly back when Quark 5 first came out and it looked to me like Quark was good at exporting to XML using its own schema, but not so good at importing XML and turning that into a Quark doc. But I _must_ have been missing something because it seems silly for it to only be a one-way thing. -Kevin - Original Message - From: Phil Broussard [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2003 9:46 AM Subject: XML and Quark I have a database with all of our product information in it.

Re: OT: Video Rendering
quicktime pro does a real good job of converting video i also use sorenson squeeze, anyone doing video on web should use that also try all video converter from http://www.zealotsoft.net/ or heck just do it in flash mx 2004 pro, makes it real easy DV Gurus, I have a client who does the following: Take DV and capture to Quicktime using Final Cut Pro 3 (mac osx). Then they take the quicktime and compress and convert it to an MPEG and a WMV. the video contains some speech. On the quick time and the mpeg the speech is correctly synched with the lips of the speaker. On the windows media file (wmv) however the lips are uniformly about .01 seconds behind the audio. Does anyone have any advice on how to convert to a wmv file from quicktime (or whatever). Does anyone have an expertice with cleaner or can anyone recomend a better product for what they are doing? Any advice would be helpful. I'm out of my element on this one. Thanks! -Mark [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Re: XML and Quark
So does Quark let you import your own DTD? I was under the impression that it used its own and that any XML importing would have to be run through an XSLT to get it to match. -Kevin - Original Message - From: Phillip B [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2003 3:41 PM Subject: Re: XML and Quark I think I figured out how to do it.

Can you help with MAX and Training Survey?
Can you help me with a short survey on conferences and training? I have heard so many different opinions from people who are both going and not going to MAX, CF_underground, Mach-II and other training classes this year. I want to take the pulse of the CF community on why you go to conferences or don't go and what kind of training you prefer. The survey is at: http://www.cfconf.com/surveys/max.cfm It only takes 2 minutes to complete and we will publish the results on the CFConf site to share with the community. Additionally anyone who completes the survey will be entered to win a free place at a TeraTech training class or conference of their choice.

Extracting CFID and CFTOKEN?
Anyone know the code to extract CFID and CFTOKEN from CFHTTP.HEADER or CFHTTP.RESPONSEHEADER? I can see both CFID and CFTOKEN are embedded in CFHTTP.HEADER, but I can't seem to find the right variable for CFHTTP.RESPONSEHEADER [???] to pluck those out.

RE: Memory Leak on Win2k/CMX6.1
Well we have major issues with our server locking up every day.EVERY Day. We've applied the SQL Patch,where you revert to the drivers used in 6.0. We've seen jrun.exe grow day after day till it finally pulls the server to a halt and locks everything up.Researching it, there are a gazillion people talking about memory leak problems on forums around the net, but no one has any solutions.I too wonder if MM is looking at this issue, because we are trying to implement some apps using 6.1 code and we can't.We can't load up a site on a server that's going to lock every day and give users timeouts or not founds or page cannot be displayed. Last night we figured we'd try what someone else said they'd tried . we put a script to check the size of jrun.exe every hour, and if it got over 100MB, then the script would stop the services and restart them.But that hasn't helped.Our servers are locked now once again. I've been watching people complaining about memory leaks and servers locking ever since 6.1 was released, and I have not seen a lot of advice or solution information coming from Macromedia. Quite frankly we're at our wits end, and I'm getting sick of losing clients over our flaky server.We haven't had a single day where the server is up all day since we installed 6.1. Not one.And we installed 6.1 two days after it was released.Since we give a performance guarantee, we've had no hosting revenue at all since 6.1 came out. Macromedia?Theserver never ran properly ever since it was installed, and it's a bloody dog.When it runs, its beauty to behold.But 4 hours later I'm fielding angry calls from clients.It's not worth it.When are we going to see some kind of solution for this?Just look at the CF forums around the net and see how many server owners are bitching about memory leaks.Bout time you owned up to it isn't it?
