Any update on connecting to IBM Univers database from Macromedia, has
this been confirmed as a bug ?or have they come up with any solution
why it does not work with MX but does with 4.5 ?

CFMX Resource Security

2004-02-24 Thread J M
Hi all,
I am having a strange problem on a CFMX server when I enable Resource Security via the CF Administrator.

I have a CF based application which replicates a directory structure from one box to another via ftp. When I enable Resource Security on the Originating box but leave all defaults in place (in other words, I do not explicitly restrict any tags, etc), the application is able to make the corresponding directories on the target box, but fails to Put any of the files.

A check of the logs reveals that the CFFTP tag is throwing an error that reads something along the lines of (java.net.SocketPermission localhost:1024 - listen,resolve). I tried explicitly allowing this port on this box and the target box on the Server/Ports tab of the Resource Security section with no luck.

If I disable Resource security on the originating box, it works just fine. Note that Resource Security is also enabled on the target box and has been hardened and does not appear to be causing any issues. In all testing, it has been enabled on the target box.

Any ideas?

version numbers, pricing, etc., have yet to be discussed at all.

But, and this is my own opinion here, I doubt that there will be
another
maintenance release for CFMX any time soon. CFMX needed updates,
which
is
why we released service packs and then v6.1, But 6.1 has proven
to be
reliable and solid and arguably one of the best ColdFusion's
ever, and
so a
maintenance release is unlikely.

Bottom line, use 6.1 now, and stay tuned for announcements from
MM.

Access to the configuration variables

I need to get access to the server configuration settings from a CFMX script.

Is there a possibility to access these values from CFMX like for the CFC with the #server# variable?

Thx.

Thanks for the link.
The problem is still here, but the error message has changed slightly. 
I now simply receive the error Connection Refused:connect.
Again, all cfftp commands work (with the passive=yes parameter added) except the putfile command. 
It is that one that is throwing the error.

Bizarre.

Only if you are not familiar with FTP :-)

FTP is a rather peculiar protocol. Data transfer operations require
opening a second data connection next to the control connection.
Opening this data connection is not easy in a setup with firewalls,
because this connection does not happen on fixed ports and in active
mode is set up in the reverse direction (the server opens a connection
to the client).

cfquery

Hi guys,

I have this query:

CFQUERY NAME=PropertyDetails datasource=020
SELECT PropertyDataID, PropertyAgentID, PropertyDataAgentReference, PropertyDataFlatNumberHouseName, PropertyDataStreetNumber, PropertyDataStreetName, PropertyDataVillageTown, PropertyDataCountyState, PropertyDataPostcodeZip, PropertyDataCountry, PropertyDataNumberofBedrooms, PropertyDataNumberofBathrooms, PropertyDataHouseType, PropertyDataPrice, PropertyDataDurationType, PropertyDataDescription, PropertyDataDateAdded
FROM PropertyData
WHERE PropertyDataID = #URL.PropertyDataID# AND PropertyAgentID = cfqueryparam cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer value=#client.propertyagentid#
/CFQUERY

Say if a user got to this page with a URL.PropertyID which equaled something in the database I thought that it wouldn't matter because of the rest of the WHERE clause stating that PropertyAgentID = Client.PropertyAgentID.When i try and access the page being a different client.PropertyAgentID, the page still displays but without the fields filled in, so i guess it works but wouldn't it be better if an error appeared.I thought that because the WHERE clause is false an error would occur but it doesn't.

Anyone know a simple way to make an error occur when a user somehow gets to run this query not being the correct client for that propertydataid (via a url)?

Well, if you want to do something like that, don't use CFINSERT - use a
regular CFQUERY and you have complete control over what you want to do

I've not used CFINSERT or CFUPDATE for years, purely for the fact that
you have no real control over what's going on internally

No - the CFQUERYPARAM passes the data as a parameter, and it forces it

Yes using a real SQL statement is the better way to go then to use

Crystal Reports

2004-02-24 Thread Ciliotta, Mario
Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone can explain to me how exactly Crystal Reports work

with CF. I have a request from my users to replace their Access based report

with web based reports and I think Crystal is the best route - maybe. Does

Crystal need to be installed on the CF server? What version of Crystal is

needed as I have two different versions of CF running. I on set of servers

that is still using CF4.5 - waiting to be upgraded and another set running MX.

Is there any other report writers out there that will work with CF? I have

been working with iText to make pdf's but I am not sure if this is good for

what I want to do.

If anyone has any ideas or knows of any other solutions, can you let me know.

Thanks

Yes, I have started several times to plan out just what my Cfupdate any

that is already done by the current Cfupdate and Cfinsert.

Any character string will validate if you use CF_SQL_VARCHAR, regardless of
format.If you want to validate a GUID, you'll have to use something more
than just CFQUERYPARAM.Easiest is probably a simple Refind call, with the
appropriate RE.I don't know the exact format of a GUID, but it should be
something like this (change the numbers, and maybe add another segment):

isValid = refind(^[0-9a-fA-F]{5}-[0-9a-fA-F]{5}-[0-9a-fA-F]{5}$, myGuid);

RE: Question about CFQUERYPARAM and GUIDs

2004-02-24 Thread Barney Boisvert
CFQUERYPARAM protects your database.It includes very primitive data
validation for standardized SQL types.That validation is for protection
only, in most cases, it's completely insufficient for the specific data of
an app.For example, the INTEGER type will happily let you store a persons
age that is negative or in the millions, as long as it's an integer, so you
almost always have to provide additional validation.

This is even worse with non-standard data types, such as SQL Server's GUID
type, MySQL's SET and ENUM types, etc.The best you can do is to use a
CF_SQL_VARCHAR, which will protect the database as well, but won't provide
you with any validation, so you have to provide external validation.

Bottom line, CFQUERYPARAM is an extra layer of security on your database,
it's not for validation.It can be used that way, but only in a supporting
role.

barneyb

Isn't this counterintuitive?

I'd answer no.What you're asking for is akin to a cfsqltype to
enforce, say, a telephone number to 999-999-.That's not what
cfqueryparam is about.You're really talking about a formatting mask
and not validating a standard SQL datatype.

Spiders have whatever ability you provide them - they're programs that you

have to keep track of the cookies that it receives. You can get to these

No. SQL allows you to even create your own datatypes. Why would 
some cf_sql-type automagically exists when I write my own 
datatype for GUIDs or ISBN numbers?

The SQL standard has a number of predefined datatypes. For those 
cf_sql-types are provided. If you wish to use other datatypes you 
are on your own.

What you have to remember is that a GUID is just a string of characters
- different systems produce them differently

CF, SQL Server and other apps won't produce the same data layout

If you expand it for GUID, people will ask for a data-type for emails,
Zip, telephone numbers and credit cards (But they're valid data-types,
right?)

You're meant to do the validation yourself, and then pass your data to

It throws an error, so you'd have to do a CFTRY, CFCATCH to check that
the error thrown is of the correct type, and then either report it or
just re-run the query with data you want to pass it

Sorry, 
Eclipse is an open source IDE / framework for java from IBM (and I think
Macromedia had a hand in it too). You can read about it and download it
here http://www.eclipse.org. It's a java IDE by default, but you can add
plug-ins for other languages - actually you can add plug-ins for pretty
much anything. People have made UML modelers and IM plug-ins - all kinds
of stuff.

It's kind of like .net for java.

If you have used a java type editor before, you'll probably have noticed
it was kind of slow (like netbeans), but this one uses native under java
so it crazy fast (Uses activeX stuff on windows, GTK on linux, Cocca on
Mac, etc). In fact, some say that eclipse with the cfeclipse plug-in is
faster / more responsive then dw - that is opinion and cfeclipse has far
less features then dw.

Anyway, to take the long way around, Eclipse is an IDE, cfeclipse is a
plug-in to make Eclipse an CF IDE/Editor - they are both free and open
source.

I used dreamweaver a couple of jobs ago and I didn't like it. It's a
great product but it was not written for coders it was written for

do mostly contract work, I use Linux and dw wont work on Linux
(purposefully I think).

I didn't like dw for the reasons listed below:

 * It doesn't work on linux
 * I could not do Emacs key bindings
 * that stupid blue line number gutter thing, why blue? why cant I turn
that off?
 * the price is out of control
 * function helping not helpful
 * it just seems to be made by designers for designers - lots of little
things - if you look at a code based IDE and you look at dw, you can
just tell its not a code based IDE
 * I write quite a bit of java and I like to compile java and have
access to cf at the same times (like writing and testing beans or cfx

I recently ran into this issue and found that the Evaluate function can cause problems in query statements if you have single quotes in there. Try running the Evaluate outside the cfquery (just set a new variable with the results) and use that in your cfqueryparam.

Actually, a GUID is a 128 bit integer that is produced according

 CF, SQL Server and other apps won't produce the same data layout

Even the string representation of a GUID is the same everywhere. 
There is however a difference between the string representation

New Book

2004-02-24 Thread jeff
This message is an advertisement of sorts, and something of a birth announcement as well. I 
hope you don't mind my taking a bit of your bandwidth with it:

***
My new book--ColdFusion Lists, Arrays,  Structures--is available for ordering online.You can 
pick it up here:

http://www.protonarts.com

The book is intended to answer all those questions about complex datatypes that 
Macromedia's documentation leaves unanswered (assuming you've read all the 
documentation!).If you're new to CF, it will give you a rapid and thorough introduction to lists, 
arrays, and structures.If you're an old hand, you might still be surprised at what you find.
There are plenty of examples and illustrations, and lots of code.

If you buy the book, please do me a couple of favors:

1.Write me a note and let me know what you think about the book, its quality, content, price, 
etc.Good or bad, I'd like to hear your thoughts.Also tell me about your experience with 
ordering, delivery, etc.I'm not working with a major publishing house this time, so I want
to make sure the process works smoothly.

2.If you like the book, tell your friends, colleagues, CFUG cohorts, etc.You'll notice the book 
is not on Amazon.com.There's a reason for that: Amazon wanted %55 of the cover price as 
their commission!That means we would have had to jack up the cover price just to break even 
if we wanted to be on Amazon.But I wanted to keep the price as affordable as possible for 
you.Consequently, the book is only available through the Proton Arts website.I'm hoping for 
a balance between outstanding service and an affordable product, courtesy of Internet 
technology.Let me know if we've succeeded.

Thanks,
- Jeff Peters

Re: SOT: cfeclipse version 1.1.1 released - if you care

2004-02-24 Thread Won Lee
Rob,

I should be a little more specific.The reason that I ask is because I 
extracted it to e:\eclipse\plugins.
It created a directory com.rohanclan.coldfusionmx_1.1.1 and I do see the 
jar file there.
But when i go into the configuration history and I don't see an reference 
to 1.1.1.I do see old references to 1.0.5 though.

 Hi Rob,
 
 Downloaded a clean copy M7 of Eclipse 3 and followed the steps for 
 installing the plugin. I also copied the icons from 1.1.0 to 1.1.1.
 
 I open a CFM file and here's what I get:
 i) The plugin's toolbar
 ii) The plugin's menubar
 iii) An error in the window that the CFM file should be displayed in 
 saying ERROR and nowt else!
 
 I'm running Version 3.0.0, build ID 200402122000 on Windows 2k.
 
 I've no idea how Eclipse works, nor a huge amount of Java experience but 
 surely there should be some way of outputting debug info? Maybe some 
 sort of menu option (for the moment)?
 
 In fact, are there any pointers you can give me on getting started with 
 your source? I'd love to help out - Homesite is annoying me and I don't 
 think my boss will fork out for Dreamweaver as it does a whole lot of 
 stuff I don't need!
 
 So if you've pointers on how to get started, good websites, etc. I'd be 
 very grateful!
 
 To start off with, how would you start debug my problem? How does one 
 debug Eclipse? Perhaps I can fix my own problem! The joys of open 
 source, no?
 
 Anyway, good work on the menu options as that's all I see at the moment :D

Factoring out locking in CFC

2004-02-24 Thread Jamie Jackson
Say I've got a CFC with several methods whose operations (e.g.
cfexecutes) need identical named locks, so that none can run
concurrently. Is there a way to factor out a locking method that can
be used by the other methods, or is this the exclusive domain of
custom tags?

The only way that I can figure to do it in the context of a CFC is to
abstract the whole idea of an operation into its own method, and
lock the operation there.

Am I thinking straight?

RE: Factoring out locking in CFC

2004-02-24 Thread Hugo Ahlenius
Well...

You could have a flag (or structure of flags) in the CFC scope, that you
set and read depending on the locking status.

It could also be that the locks should be on the calling page/cfc/etc,
e.g. start lock, create object, call method1, call method2, end lock.

RE: Factoring out locking in CFC

2004-02-24 Thread Barney Boisvert
You can't do a body with a function like you can do with a custom tag, so
I think you're stuck, if you can't abstract out the entire operation.
However, that's definitely the best way to go; no sense in having the same
code more than once if you can help it.

If it's not possible, then set up the lock name as a variable in your CFC,
and then use that variable, if you're not already.Then you're assured that
you're always using the same lock name.

Cheers,
barneyb

No offense taken at all!It was intended to amuse.You should've seen the fight I had with our

RE: Help: UTF-16 in ColdFusion 5???

2004-02-24 Thread Dave Watts
 I'm using the Microsoft XML Services (v4) parser with CF5 on 
 Windows. I'm getting an error and this page
 
 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q247708
 
 explains that the reason is because I have to convert my 
 ColdFusion 5 string to UTF-16 before I can pass the string to 
 the Microsoft XML parser. How the heck can I convert my 
 string to UTF-16 in ColdFusion 5??? Is there an alternative 
 way to do this? I'm one line of code away from being done 
 with this hassle...

According to the URL you posted:

Scripting developers have two options available:

1. Convert your XML documents to UTF-16-formatted Unicode, either
automatically or by hand.Escape all non-Unicode character encodings inside
the XML document using XML Unicode entity references. Any XML character can
be encoded in plain ASCII using the form #, where  is its index
into the Unicode character set.
2. Escape all non-Unicode character encodings inside the XML document
using XML Unicode entity references. Any XML character can be encoded in
plain ASCII using the form #, where  is its index into the Unicode
character set.

Out of curiosity, have you identified the invalid characters?

Execution time for cfapplication tag

2004-02-24 Thread Claudia Hoag
Hello,

My Application.cfm is taking 390ms to run, which is actually the cfapplication tag alone taking 350ms. Shouldn't it run faster than that? Is that because I'm using a database for clientstorage? (it's MS SQL 2k)
Here's the tag:
cfapplication
	name=myapp
	loginStorage=cookie
	clientmanagement=Yes
	clientstorage=myappClientStorage
	setdomaincookies=Yes
	setclientcookies=Yes

RE: bank of america processing

2004-02-24 Thread Barney Boisvert
Does the interface involve sending a file to BofA?When using CFHTTP to
interface with MediaLinq faxing service, it wouldn't accept the file uploads
as valid.I ended up writing a function library that would build and send
HTTP calls using HTTPClient (the same library that CFHTTP is built on), but
using the right syntax for the uploaded files.

No idea if that's relevant or not, but thought I'd throw it out there.

vspider on CFMX J2EE Linux: Works or not?

2004-02-24 Thread Jamie Jackson
Just wondering whether I wasted a couple of days of work developing an
application to ease the creation of vspider searches. (ARGGH!)

This link (Original MX release notes) indicates that vspider doesn't
work at all on Linux:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/releasenotes/mx/knownissues_mx_j2ee_p2.html#verity

But newer release notes make no mention of a non-functional vspider:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/releasenotes/mx/mx61_known_problems.html#verity

Which is it, does vspider work on CFMX/J2EE for Linux, or doesn't it?

Thanks,

RE: Execution time for cfapplication tag

2004-02-24 Thread Nathan Strutz
There's a good chance that your client variable storage is the problem. How
large is the database? Is there any way you can do without it?

I personally have some reservations about using client database storage. The
idea is great, but the implementation is poor. On my SQL 2k server, we can
watch as client variables prepare and unprepare stored procs to set and
update variables. This is a mean thing to do to a database.

If at all possible, change your client storage to cookies, or do a
roll-your-own client storage mechanism. I've been thinking about this for a
while and have come up with a number of ideas. Let me know if you want any
of them.

What I meant by being careful has to do with the placement of -, ],

it's literal.[] I can never remember, so I escape.

I just checked, and in 6.1 you don't have to escape a period in a

Unlikely as that seems.:-)

 Not within a character class.If you're careful about how you construct
 it, you never have to escape anything in a class.Unless I forgot about
 something, or course.:-)

 If you want to allow other caracters like . and , add them in the class:
 REFind([^0-9.,],form.PropertyDataPrice)

 Hi guys,

 I'm trying to make sure that my field has ONLY numeric
 characters otherwise show an error.I'm using the REFind but
 it doesn't pick up characters like  $ £ etc.

 cfelseif REFind([[:num:]],form.PropertyDataPrice)cfset
 MessageAlert = MessageAlert  font color='red'Price/font
 must only be numbers baby.br/cfif


 Any ideas?

 Cheers,

 Stu

That just passes along the problem from the driver/database it cant tell
you the line number of the stored proc if it was not given

The offending line that the CF 
 processor shows has nothing to do with SP's, of course (in fact, it's a 
 comment line).
its talking about the cfproc call, probably near the comment. Sometimes
it points before sometimes after, but generally near the query/proc
call. In other words, its telling you were cf made the proc call not
where the proc errored.

RE: Execution time for cfapplication tag

2004-02-24 Thread Ben Forta
Or use SESSION variables, which can be shared quite easily and effectively
when CF is deployed on top of a J2EE server. And SESSION supports far more
data types than does CLIENT too.

There's a good chance that your client variable storage is the problem. How
large is the database? Is there any way you can do without it?

I personally have some reservations about using client database storage. The
idea is great, but the implementation is poor. On my SQL 2k server, we can
watch as client variables prepare and unprepare stored procs to set and
update variables. This is a mean thing to do to a database.

If at all possible, change your client storage to cookies, or do a
roll-your-own client storage mechanism. I've been thinking about this for a
while and have come up with a number of ideas. Let me know if you want any
of them.

Subject: Execution time for cfapplication tag

Hello,

My Application.cfm is taking 390ms to run, which is actually the
cfapplication tag alone taking 350ms. Shouldn't it run faster than that? Is
that because I'm using a database for clientstorage? (it's MS SQL 2k)
Here's the tag:
cfapplication
name=myapp
loginStorage=cookie
clientmanagement=Yes
clientstorage=myappClientStorage
setdomaincookies=Yes
setclientcookies=Yes

TIA,
Claudia

RE: Help: UTF-16 in ColdFusion 5???

2004-02-24 Thread Jon Block
Dave I have no idea which are the invalid characters and thats what is
driving me crazy. I was hoping someone may have had a need to do this in the
past and created some UDF or CFX that would do what I'm looking for... any
ideas?

Subject: RE: Help: UTF-16 in ColdFusion 5???

 I'm using the Microsoft XML Services (v4) parser with CF5 on
 Windows. I'm getting an error and this page

 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q247708

 explains that the reason is because I have to convert my
 ColdFusion 5 string to UTF-16 before I can pass the string to
 the Microsoft XML parser. How the heck can I convert my
 string to UTF-16 in ColdFusion 5??? Is there an alternative
 way to do this? I'm one line of code away from being done
 with this hassle...

According to the URL you posted:

Scripting developers have two options available:

1. Convert your XML documents to UTF-16-formatted Unicode, either
automatically or by hand.Escape all non-Unicode character encodings inside
the XML document using XML Unicode entity references. Any XML character
can
be encoded in plain ASCII using the form #, where  is its index
into the Unicode character set.
2. Escape all non-Unicode character encodings inside the XML document
using XML Unicode entity references. Any XML character can be encoded in
plain ASCII using the form #, where  is its index into the
Unicode
character set.

Out of curiosity, have you identified the invalid characters?

First try your whole block of code.
Second try just the following block of code for debugging.

cfcatch type=any/cfcatch

Yes, your follow-up makes a lot of sense to me except the GET method in the
following block, is it a typo? meant to be POST? I thought cfhttpparam 
subtag is used with POST method only.

Thanks.
