Re: CFMX 7.0.1 and MS SQL 2005
G'day Dave, thanks for your suggestion. Yes that's what Im doing for uploads - backing up to my own PC then FTP the backup to the site, then lodge a support ticket for the support guy to restore it to the site. But it's a hassle, and I would rather have a way to do it myself without needing support guys to do it for me. In the other direction, where I need to make a local copy of a database on line, I can't do a backup myself - the database doesnt give permissions high enough for that. So again i have to ask teh support guy to take an additional backup (he is supposed to be doing it every night - I'm assuming he is) and put it on the site somewhere for me to pick up by FTP later. But again, that's a real hassle and it would be far better if i can find a practical way to get copies of databases myself whenever i like.

Report Builder fun and games
Hi guys, I'm still fighting with the Report Builder (see my progress to date at http://kay.smoljak.com/archives/?coldfusion-report-builder-sanity-saving-tips/), but this new issue seems to have something to do with the IIS vs the built-in web server, so I'm hoping someone might some ideas of things to try. Situation is this: three of my reports, which need to go into an overview reports as subreports, have complex calculations that are wrapped up in CFC calls each. These reports work flawlessly when called standalone (with the query created externally and passed in as a cfreport tag parameter). However, as subreports need the query to be created inside the report, I have moved the CFC calls into the advanced query section of the report itself (with the required CFC parameters eg dsn hardcoded for now). If I call the report standalone, it works correctly (on all servers). On my local machine with CF's built-in web server, when called as a subreport, it also works correctly. However, on the staging server - Windows 2003 with IIS, a mirror of the production server - as a subreport it doesn't work at all - I get a blank page. I've set when no query, show headers but no data (or whatever that option is called, don't have it in front of me right now) but still nothing. I tried moving all files into the root directory - the cfcs in a directory under the root called cfc, so I'm referencing cfc.compname and like I said, it works when called standalone on all machines - but no change. Any ideas of what to try? An alternate way of referencing the CFCs? Another way of getting that code into the report without completely rewriting it? Thanks for any troubleshooting tips :) -- Kay Smoljak http://kay.zombiecoder.com/ ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:238749 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Re: CFMX 7.0.1 and MS SQL 2005
SSIS packages should not be foreign to you if you're used to DTS packages. Yes it's a little different, but the interfaces are very similar to the way the old DTS packages were. The only difference would be the editor which made things a bit less user friendly. I'm used to using Visual Studio so this hasn't been very difficult for me, once you get used to the interface it will become very easy for you. It took me just a couple of hours to figure out how things work with SSIS. The only thing I would like to find out now (once SSIS even works for us) is how to get the packages saved in the database rather than as physical files on the disk.

Re: CFMX 7.0.1 and MS SQL 2005
If someone ends up outgrowing Express and needing to go to the full blown version of MSSQL 2005 what do they end up needing to do to move a database from one to the other? Is it as simple as just backing up the files in Express and restoring them onto the new server?

Thanks Mike, but I was looking for a bit more granular detail - I know that the page request resets the inactivity timer. But that occurs at the beginning of the page processing - I'm more concerned about what happens after that point in order to keep the session active. Is CF keeping the session active *during* the page processing, regardless of whether there is any actual interaction with the session scope? That's really the crux of my question. Every .cfm page request, regardless of session variable usage, within a given application, resets that particular session's timeout counter. CF's session management is related to the session cookies (cfid/cftoken or the J2EE session) that are automatically set, by ColdFusion. You do not need to create your own session variables to continue the session. CFDUMP the session and cookie scopes once you have enabled session management and you will see what is created. Then, try a few things, like deleting the cookies, closing the browser, and you will see how CF handles the session management. M!ke -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 25, 2006 3:53 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: What determines session inactivity timeouts? What started out as a simple exercise has gone crazy. All I wanted to do was to give my users a warning of impending session timouts and give them the opportunity to refresh the session. I tried using the CF_SessionWatch tag but it's a bit too simplistic - I used it to setup a JS call to set a timer for a few minutes less than the session timeout value, but if the user takes longer to respond (maybe they walked away from their PC) than the remaining session timeout, then when the user comes back and clicks on the yea I want to keep working option, the resulting attempt to touch a page in the app (to reset the session timeout) ends up causing the login page to come up (since by then the session vars have timed out), so now the user is real confused (because he has his original page, as well as a login page in the pop-up window). So, I added a bit more JS so that when the warning pop-up comes up, it first sets a timer for about a minute less than the amount of remaining session var time, and if *that* timer fires, then I log the user off and force the opener page to go back to the home page, and do a window.close() to get rid of the pop-up window. Sounds fine, right? Here's my concern - what if the page that is executing takes longer to execute than the session timeout value? Our server is set for 1 hour max timeout, and some of the data loading screens can take longer than that to run, especially when the CF or SQL server is loaded. I don't want to have it whacked in the middle of it's work by the session timeout checker. So this leads to my initial question, which I've never thought about before even though I've been using session vars for years and years - what exactly constitutes inactivity in CF's perspective? What if a long running page doesn't touch any session vars for a period of time greater than the session var timeout? Is session activity defined by a request being active, or by the actual touching of a session-scoped var? Do I need to have potential long-running pages periodically touch a session var? I thought about moving the code for setting up the JS timers from the application.cfm file to orequestend.cfm, which wouldn't start up the timers until the page actually completes, but then that has a

RE: What determines session inactivity timeouts?
It is possible that the delay could occur while processing a single CF tag, therefore, you would have no way of touching a session variable. For example, the session timeout is 5 minutes. On the page, you have a CFFILE tag that save a huge amount of data to a text file. It could take 7 minutes to save the file. By the time the CFFILE tag completes, the session has expired. There is no way to hook into the CFFILE tag and have it restart the session timer. I just wonder if the session timer is reset after EVERY session variables read/write or only once when the page is requested/completed. There is probably an easy way of testing this by setting a session variable, sleeping the thread for several minutes (to let the session timeout), then trying to read the same session variable and see if it still exists.

Re: searching for online booking system written in CF
Hi, Adrian. Thanks for responding to my query about a CF online booking solution for property managers. Sorry for the delay in responding to your question. I'm looking for the following features: A search feature that will produce search results for users so they can find the property they desire. The page returned will allow a view of the photos of the property and a short description. A calendar that will show when a property is available for rent to users. A back end web admin tool that works with a MySql db that allows the property manager to update available property on the site. Some e-mail functionality that confirms the user's reservation and starts a process for sending a deposit by credit card.

Hi, Bob. Sorry for the delay in responding to you. Yes, I believe I've seen your booking engine and visited your site.

My needs are a little bit different than a hotel because each property is different and has different photos and descriptions. And how much work will it be for me to port the database over to MySql?

Re: XAMPP Coldfusion together?
I assume you're saying that Apache won't even restart after CF has been installed. Have you checked /var/log to see if the logs tell you anything? CF modifies your httpd.conf file to apply several LoadModule directives. You might want to take a look at those to see if anything looks out of sorts. I haven't installed CF on Apache for a while now, but those are things I've seen in past efforts. You might also try uninstalling the wsconfig for Apache and see if that allows Apache to restart.

ASP.Net book for CF programmer
Anyone have a suggestion for a good book for getting quickly up to speed with ASP.Net for someone experienced in ColdFusion?

I know C# already, but a _good_ book with examples in VB would be fine also. The problem I have is that I need to be able to separate what is good practice from what is just fluff that they throw in for people who don't know how to code for the web. For instance, I knew in CF not to use CFInsert and the weird CF canned form controls. It is not clear from what I've read on ASP.Net if their canned form controls are actually necessary or not.

RE: Image resizing on the fly?
Rick- I agree and that's what I'm leaning toward. The only thing I don't like is that if I want to change dimensions of all the images for some reason, I have to go back through and run everything over again. The big thing that prompted this question was that I saw .Net people using image.ashx (do a google search on it) and it seems they do it on the fly everytime. I'm not sure if .net is just better at doing it with very little overhead or if the people doing it are a timebomb waiting to explode on their server if they ever get significant traffic.

John, Since you don't want to always be resizing on the fly every time someone views an image, you might try something like this: img src=showImage.cfm?foo=myImage.jpg and in showImge.cfm just use imageCFC to read the image dimensions. If the image hasn't been resized, resize it and save it back. Then use cfcontent to send the image. That way every time you display the image, the only added overhead would be getting the image dimensions. ALTERNATIVELY, save the resized image with a different filename like myImage_resized.jpg and then have showImage.cfm check for the existence of the file - if it's not there, resize the original image and save it. Then you're not even calling java to get image dimensions, you're only checking for the existence of a file with a specific name. ultimately, you're better off not doing any of this dynamic stuff cuz it won't scale. You'd be better off using some kind of event gateway directory watcher and just resizing the images as they appear. rick ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:238791 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Not sure if I completely understand. But: We connect to a remote MySQL database(remote as in, in another building and different network). Have you tried to set up an ODBC connection thru Administravtive Tools/Data Sources(ODBC)? We set up a System DSN in there using an account that has the necessary permissions on the MySQL box. This DSN will then show up in the ColdFusion Admin when you select ODBC Socket as your driver. This has also worked with making connections with .xls files and others.

The latest site like this is the www.learn2asp.net site, you sign up, click the download button 3 times and wait a month for your book to show up (free software, too!). When they did this a couple years ago, the book they sent was Coding Strategies from the Microsoft ASP.NETTeam and it was great at taking me through how the server worked, how requests work, what happens when you bind data, etc. That was a MS Press book, and is honestly the way I would go (especially if you can score it for free).

Okay... I'm having some weird issues here. I'm trying to install a WAMP package on my loacl machine for use in development. I've never had any problems before with setting these up but now, I'm having a DEVIL of a time. I can get the package installed in a fairly timely and orderly fashion BUT it's when I go to install CF as well that I encounter problems. For instance, I'm using XAMPP right now. Apache and mySQL are both running as services and running successfully I might add. However, when install CF not only does CF bnot work but Apache stops working as well. I just installed it right now, with Apache running and once CF was done, Apache had been shut down. I really have to get this working, does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? !//-- andy matthews web developer ICGLink, Inc.

Re: using a datasource thru mapped drive
Brilliant, thanks. When I was looking at the ODBC setup screen, I didn't relize I could use a UNC format to point to the data. I just now tried using the create a shortcut to a web folder or ftp site link when setting up the ODBC and saw it allowed a straight UNC path. This appears to have worked. We connect to a remote MySQL database(remote as in, in another building and different network). Have you tried to set up an ODBC connection thru Administravtive Tools/Data Sources(ODBC)? We set up a System DSN in there using an account that has the necessary permissions on the MySQL box. This DSN will then show up in the ColdFusion Admin when you select ODBC Socket as your driver. This has also worked with making connections with .xls files and others. Just had to make sure the server making the ODBC socket had the necessary drivers. ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:238803 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

I know C# already, but a _good_ book with examples in VB would be fine also. The problem I have is that I need to be able to separate what is good practice from what is just fluff that they throw in for people who don't know how to code for the web. For instance, I knew in CF not to use CFInsert and the weird CF canned form controls. It is not clear from what I've read on ASP.Net if their canned form controls are actually necessary or not.

RE: CFMX 7.0.1 and MS SQL 2005
G'day Dave, thanks for your suggestion. Yes that's what Im doing for uploads - backing up to my own PC then FTP the backup to the site, then lodge a support ticket for the support guy to restore it to the site. But it's a hassle, and I would rather have a way to do it myself without needing support guys to do it for me. In the other direction, where I need to make a local copy of a database on line, I can't do a backup myself - the database doesnt give permissions high enough for that. So again i have to ask teh support guy to take an additional backup (he is supposed to be doing it every night - I'm assuming he is) and put it on the site somewhere for me to pick up by FTP later. All of this could be automated, though. Of course, you (and/or they) would have to build the job, but it would fix your immediate problem. But again, that's a real hassle and it would be far better if i can find a practical way to get copies of databases myself whenever i like. You're right; I don't know enough about SQL Server 2005 to be able to give you a better solution.

Re: ASP.Net book for CF programmer

You'll be even more amazed at how the .NET Framework itself gives you all kinds of high-end goodies, especially through its large third party vendor base. For example, there are a number of companies that sell high performance session object syndication software that scales realistically out to dozens of clustered servers, and some companies have similar offerings for high performance object cache syndication. And it still freaks me out that you can install and configure things like this in just a few minutes, as compared to trying to get *any* form of clustering working in ColdFusion Server.

Re: What determines session inactivity timeouts?
OK, I did what I should have done before starting this thread, which was to rig up a test case to see what happens. Pretty interesting results. It appears that CF keeps the session vars alive during page processing, even if there is no activity with those vars. Here is what I did: In Application.cfm: cfapplication name=test clientmanagement=no sessionmanagement=yes setclientcookies=yes setdomaincookies=yes sessiontimeout=#createtimespan(0,0,1,0)# applicationtimeout=#createtimespan(0,1,0,0)# loginstorage=session In Test.cfm: cfobject type=JAVA name=obj class=java.lang.Thread action=CREATE cfdump var=#session# cfset session.x=1 cfdump var=#session# #timeformat(now(),HH:MM:SS)# cfset obj.sleep(7) BRBR #timeformat(now(),HH:MM:SS)# cfdump var=#session# HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED: First time I executed test.cfm, I got three CFDUMPS of the session scope: dump 1 had no vars in it, dumps 2 and 3 showed the var I set in my code. Since there was a 70 second pause between 2 and 3, and the session var timeout was set to 1 minute, that tells me that CF kept the session vars alive. I waited 2-3 minutes and reran, with the same output - which shows that CF did in fact destroy the session vars after the 60 second timeout occured between the two page requests. Then I ran another variation: I ran the script again, and then when it finished I reran it immediately, and guess what - the session var was gone! That makes it look like CF kept the session var alive during the script's execution, even though the timeout was reached, but deferred destroying the var until the request completed. So I did another scenario: ran the same test in 1 browser, but with the pause set to 2 minutes, and immediately in another browser window ran a script that simply did 2 CFDUMPs of the session scope with a 60 second pause between them. The second window (which began and ended during the first window's 2 minute pause period), showed the session var to be alive on both dumps. I refreshed it's screen immediately, and when it finished the session var was gone. This tells me that when CF deferred destroying the session var during the first script's execution, it kept the var alive for all other requests, not just for the currently executing one. Final test - I changed the second script's pause to be 2 minutes, and waited about 10 seconds after running the first script before starting the second, to see what happens to the session vars for the second script when it it still running after the first script ends. The session vars for the second script were still there on both dumps, which is pretty interesting because it said that when CF saw that the second script was running it kept the session vars alive, even though it never touched any of them. But the immediate rerun of the second script showed that the vars were gone as soon as it had finished. Bottom line is that session vars don't dissapear out from under you during script execution, but when the lifeguard blows the whistle the session vars are gone as soon as the last guy is out of the pool - unless someone new jumps into the pool and actually touches a session var. Whew Reed It is possible that the delay could occur while processing a single CF tag, therefore, you would have no way of touching a session variable. For example, the session timeout is 5 minutes. On the page, you have a CFFILE tag that save a huge amount of data to a text file. It could take 7 minutes to save the file. By the time the CFFILE tag completes, the session has expired. There is no way to hook into the CFFILE tag and have it restart the session timer. I just wonder if the session timer is reset after EVERY session variables read/write or only once when the page is requested/completed. There is probably an easy way of testing this by setting a session variable, sleeping the thread for several minutes (to let the session timeout), then trying to read the same session variable and see if it still exists.

How they recommend it I don't know, but I guess because of the first one, ASP.Net Unleashed. I have this book and I think it's ok, but it's in VB so I have to convert the examples(which is no biggie). Sign up to the forums on http://asp.net as there is a tonne of good info on there, including book reviews AND a section about going from CF to ASP.Net. I think you'll gauge pretty quickly what's good and bad with all the controls like GridView and AdRotator if you do some work with them.

Coldfusion and Qmail-Inject
If anyone is interested in using qmail-inject to directly insert email messages into your mail queue via coldfusion, I've just blogged about it. http://www.opensourcecf.com/1/2006/04/Coldfusion-and-qmailinject.cfm#comment It requires the use of a small perl script, a few extra perl modules, and CFEXECUTE privileges. I spent a little while doing an implementation that actually wrote out files to a spool directory first and then executed a little perl script to send them all, but I was able to make some changes so now coldfusion doesn't do any file output. I didn't like the idea of writing out 100,000 messages at 10k each out to disk, then using qmail-inject to put them into the queue, which would just write them again as files in the mail queue.

Is running CF on J2EE server more stable?
Hi. We have been having some reliability issues with CF recently and where wondering if it was more reliable/stable if it was run over a J2EE server instead in server configuration mode? We would be looking at deploying it using Tomcat. Any thoughts? Kind regards, Andrew ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:238841 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Re: Is running CF on J2EE server more stable?
Standalone mode is running on Adobe's JRun J2EE server, just the JRun instance is hidden from view. You can still find the JRun installation in a standalone server, you just have to look for it. I've run CF on Tomcat without issue, but never in production, and I'm pretty sure it's not a supported server. cheers, barneyb On 4/26/06, Andrew Dixon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi.
