Re: Using CFLock around a query
Ali Awan wrote: Every once in a while on my intranet application I get Database errors. MS SQL Server will throw an error that the transaction was deadlocked. It happens around a piece of code in which I have 2 queries, an Update and a Delete which are nested inside a CFTransaction. On this page, the only thing happening is an update query. I checked the date and time that the error occurred and I did not find 2 competing transactions, so I was completely baffled as to why a SQL deadlock would occur on a page where this just a single query. Did you find any concurrent queries? What I have done is put a CFLock around this, in the hopes that this will eliminate this error. Since you couldn't find any concurrent transactions I doubt that is going to help. If there are 2 users and they are not hitting the same table, but just hitting the same database, could a deadlock situation occur? For a deadlock you need at least two SQL sessions hitting the same object. cflock cftransaction cfquery name=q1 update table1 yadda yadda... /cfquery cfquery name=q2 delete table1 where .. /cfquery /cftransaction /cflock It is not unlikely this can deadlock, but to be certain we need to see the actual SQL.

declare sql variables
Why do you want to declare a variable? You are not even using it in your statement. What is the problem for which you think a variable declaration is the solution? Fair question. I'm not even using it in my statement because I can't even declare a variable. If I can't get past step 1, there's no use in trying step 2. I'm sure you've been there. And I don't know that it solves my problem. I've been working on this query forever and had some great assistance from here a few weeks back. I'm trying to evolve that code. Originally, in the inner select, I had: CASE WHEN o.mname is not null THEN o.fname ELSE a.a_mname END as middlename. Then in the outter query (main query?), I substring it and concatenate it with a dot ( || '.'). This works great on first and last name which are required and are sure to have something in either o.fname or a.a_fname. Middle name though is optional and may not have an entry. That code above says if there's a middle name in my people table (o), use it. If not, use whatever is in the authors table (a). But the author's table may be blank too. In that case, I don't want to concatenate a dot. I'd end up with entries like Abrahms,P.. Originally I tried to add a if in the second part of the statement, after the THEN section. I couldn't figure that out, after lotsa cussin and itchin. So, I thought that maybe I could initialize middlename as '' and maybe that would be of some assistance. In the query that you saw, I tried to use NVL(o.mname, a.a_mname)AS middlename, and also COALESCE(o.mname || '.', a.a_mname || '.', ' ') Both didn't work right, though I don't understand why coalesce didn't work. It seems like the third option would kick in. I'm at the point now that I think I should just figure out a CF solution and forget the whole SQL complexity. I dunno. Either way, I figured it would be good to at least know how to initialize variables in SQL for later use. Sounds like a basic, fundamental tool, right? Depends on what you're trying to accomplish. Note that using cfqueryparam, you're essentially creating a bind variable anyway - so with CF, I don't see what you'd gain. I thought cfqueryparam did that, from what I remember about conversations here. But while I was just looking to have a basic variable, from the text, bind variables seemed like a good thing to know.

Re: Multi-Language Site
First, I tried to minimize the use of terms with images. Second, I created an application level variable for all terms that needed to be translated, including for javascript alerts. The data is stored in a table, so can be updated (either automatically, when the application variable times out, or manully). I then created custom tag that queries the application data depending on the language setting - this adds some processing overhead, but works for me. Now, I have multiple languages, and users can add new languages, hence this approach. You could make it a bit simpler - just create a application level structure with terms, and create a variable as a language extension, for example, _en or _spI also use unicode as per other suggestions.

This works great on first and last name which are required and are sure to have something in either o.fname or a.a_fname. Middle name though is optional and may not have an entry. That code above says if there's a middle name in my people table (o), use it. If not, use whatever is in the authors table (a). But the author's table may be blank too. In that case, I don't want to concatenate a dot. I'd end up with entries like Abrahms,P.. Originally I tried to add a if in the second part of the statement, after the THEN section. I couldn't figure that out, after lotsa cussin and itchin. So, I thought that maybe I could initialize middlename as '' and maybe that would be of some assistance.

Okay, here's another for you. I am (with your helpful suggestions) able to add together two dynamically named form fields.

I have N number of fields where mileageBegin and mileageEnd are added together to get the row total. Now, I need to add all the row totals together to get the Master mileage for the week. Here's what I'm using to get the row totals: cfloop index=i from=1 to=#rowtotal# cfoutput function dosum#i#() { document.frmTalent.mileageTotal#i#.value = floor(parseFloat(document.temps.mileageBegin#i#.value) + parseFloat(document.temps.mileageEnd#i#.value)) ... /cfoutput /cfloop Now I need to access every mileageTotal#i# field to get its subtotal so they can be added to get a Master total. If these were static, this would be easy, but I'm stumped on what to do with N number of fields. Ideas? Thanks! Without specifics, I can give you a general example: Var objForm = document.forms[ 0 ]; Var objInput1 = objForm.elements[ dynamic_field_1 ]; Var objInput2 = objForm.elements[ dynamic_field_2 ]; Var objInput3 = objForm.elements[ dynamic_result ]; objInput3.value = (objInput1.value * 1) + (objInput2.value * 1); Of course, there is no validation here.

Yes and no. In one case, I found concurrent queries and I also found 2 sessions hitting the same table. Did you find any concurrent queries? For a deadlock you need at least two SQL sessions hitting the same object. It is not unlikely this can deadlock, but to be certain we need to see the actual SQL.

Digest Authentication woes
Does anyone have any success stories performing CF Server to remote HTTP Server Digest Authentication? I know it's not natively supported by the cfhttp tag. I also know the server I'm trying to connect to works and that I have proper credentials, as I can connect using a web browser. I even recorded all the communications exchanged during that session using FireFox's Live Headers Modify Headers add-on and duplicated the exchange exactly with cfhttp cfhttpparams, but I keep getting 401 Bad Request. Response did not match. I was pretty careful duplicating the exchange as described in RFC 2617 HTTP Authentication: Basic and Digest Access Authentication I couldn't get the CFX_HTTP5 custom tag to work either even though it does support Digest Authentication natively. Any help/insight/experience/code would be appreciated.

Re: Adobe CS3 Web Edition leaves me wanting, moving to Eclipse! W AS (RE: Frameworks)
I have been using (CF)Eclipse for a while now and I am really beginning to doubt the benefits of it over DW. Here are the things I do like about (CF)Eclipse: 1) It has never stalled or frozen on startup or at any other point of time 2) I love the Outline and Methods views (and it doesn't stall when drilling down into them) 3) The TODO thing is sweet! 4) Code collapse by default and entirely configurable is much better than DW code collapse 5) The new Frameworks view is sweet! 6) It really brings the word integrated out of IDE with the ability to install multiple plugins for A-Z I can't think of anything else. However, I couldn't even begin to make a list of all the things I love about DW, it has so many capabilities. For me, DW would nearly be complete if somebody like Mossimo Foti and/or Danilo Celic (or ADOBE!) created the following: 1) Outline and Methods Views that mimicked CFEclipse (the DW components view stalls nearly everytime as it tries to do too much by listing every component in the project and provide a drill down of its methods). 2) A TODO thing 3) Code collapse support like CFEclipse 4) A Frameworks view 5) SVN 6) ANT Since there is not way for DW to become as integrated as Eclipse, however, I really think that Adobe should build DW as an Eclipse plugin and port all of it's many features to the Eclipse platform. That, my friends, would really be sweet!

Re: Multi-Language Site
Bruce, I have a client site that provides online learning internationally with clients from different countries and Languages such as Japanese, Arabic, French, Spanish and more. The same core model layer serves the international portal, US portal, and allows for translation of the entire site text into any language. Here's some of the basics: On session start a setLanguage() function is run which does the following: 1) Sets the language locale variable which is cross referenced to the #server.coldfusion.supportedlocales#. This allows you to use Coldfusion internationalization for dates/currency formatting. 2) Sets a language prefix like en or jp based on the locale setting. This is used to serve different javascript or help files as necessary (i.e. - /js/common.en.js or /js/common.jp.js); 3) If the language isn't currently in use, it creates the cache structure to store the language data.I've used structures and arrays for the container in the Application scope which pulls the cached strings, but ultimately settled on a Query object and use QoQ to pull from the cache. The reason for the QoQ is case sensitivity. Even though there's a bit more overhead, if the site is any size, you will inevitably find yourself translating the same string in different ways for presentation purposes. A translate() function is scoped to the request which allows site- wide access the function. Translation content is pulled from the database (or XML) and the result is cached in the query object which is used on subsequent requests for the same string.Since this particular site has around 50 different international sites pointing to it, there is also a function which runs and clears the cached languages after an interval in case there are cached languages taking up memory which are not being actively used. Lastly, since the content is always changing, the translation function also creates a string in draft status when it encounters text that hasn't yet been translated. It then caches and returns the original string in order to skip evaluation for future requests. The client can then edit the draft translations at their convenience and flush the cache when they publish the string live.

It's unfortunate they mention CF is somewhat unflattering terms but most of the criticism is (rightly) aimed at MS tech. hidden disadvantage of the .Net approach is that the resulting Web site is harder to manage It's more difficult to scale .Net, it's harder to monitor in a large-scale deployment, Buhrdorf says. Java can scale up on small Linux servers, and you get better insight into the production environment. The comments about the CF app's architecture were not aimed at CF but at the architecture: The old TripHomes site had stored its home images, data, and programming logic in the form of stored procedures in the database on a single disk drive, giving us a single point of failure, And, indeed, that was extremely bad practice.

Are your web services being called on the CFC's directly? It is a SOAP or REST service? Are you using OnRequest() event method.

RE: Adobe CS3 Web Edition leaves me wanting, moving to Eclipse! W AS (RE: Frameworks)
Two things to keep in mind with SVN: * Branches and tags are just normal directories within the repository, it's just a convention to treat them differently. Some software works within this convention, others don't care. * You can set up multiple, separate repositories in one directory, e.g. D:\SVNData has all the repositories so you have D:\SVNData\mainwebsite, D:\SVNData\greenshiney, etc. Then just tell the SVN service to use the D:\SVNData directory as the repository root and reference your projects as e.g. svn://servername/greenshiney/trunk, etc; ditto for the Apache module, there's a configuration option to tell it what the repository parent directory is.

Re: Adobe CS3 Web Edition leaves me wanting, moving to Eclipse! W AS (RE: Frameworks)
Aaron, One thing to keep in mind, not sure if you meant it like this or not. Never SVN production code, only development code. Now depending on where your production server is the best utility on the market is Beyond Compare, i would love an Eclipse plugin for this but I use it to only upload changes that are necessary to upload, and the beauty is it will work over FTP as well just a little harder to use that way. But I should also blog some code I have with Ant in Eclipse that can also package (Zip up) the source code move it to another directory as well as encrypt the code and move it to a testing server. And just so you know my workstation is my development machine, and we have a testing server that is just that for testing by the testers, and client before going live into production. -- Senior Coldfusion Developer Aegeon Pty.

What they want is to move away from MS tech. It's unfortunate they mention CF is somewhat unflattering terms but most of the criticism is (rightly) aimed at MS tech. hidden disadvantage of the .Net approach is that the resulting Web site is harder to manage It's more difficult to scale .Net, it's harder to monitor in a large-scale deployment, Buhrdorf says. Java can scale up on small Linux servers, and you get better insight into the production environment. The comments about the CF app's architecture were not aimed at CF but at the architecture: The old TripHomes site had stored its home images, data, and programming logic in the form of stored procedures in the database on a single disk drive, giving us a single point of failure, And, indeed, that was extremely bad practice.

Re: Connection reset by peer: socket write error, 3.4 JDBC drivers
Did you ever figure this one out? I am seeing the same problem. -JH Setup: CFMX 6.11, Windows 2003 Server, IIS, SQL Server 8 / SP3, Latest JDBC drivers from MM website (3.4) Error Message: Error Executing Database Query. [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Connection reset by peer: socket write error First, I never saw this error until I updated the JDBC drivers to 3.4 last week. The job that is failing with this error message was succeeding for months before the driver upgrade. With that in mind, the job runs a single query against a db, then queries another database for 20-40 minutes, then returns to the FIRST db and runs another query. Every single time, if the first and last queries are seperated by more than 20 minutes, that second query will fail with the 'socket write error'. I can reproduce this error every time, outside of my specific code, with a very simple waiting mechanism. datasource and table names have been changed to protect the innocent. trying query 1...br cfquery name=bar datasource=DATASOURCEONE SELECT MIN(datestamp) FROM TABLENAME /cfquery !--- loop a 5 minute wait, 8 times. to make java wait for 40 minutes --- cfloop from=1 to=8 index=i cfoutput pausing for 5 minutes, beginning at #timeFormat(now(),HH:mm)#...Br cfflush /cfoutput cfset oThread = CreateObject(java, java.lang.Thread) / cfset oThread.sleep(30) / waking up...br /cfloop trying last query... cfflush cftry cfquery name=bar datasource=DATASOURCEONE SELECT MIN(datestamp) FROM TABLENAME /cfquery cfcatch type=any cfdump var=#CFCATCH# /cfcatch /cftry bOK/b If I were to run a query on the same datasource inside of that wait loop, thereby hitting the DB every 5 minutes, I would not get the 'socket write' error I assumed this had something to do with timeout values or maintaining connections, I seem to be wrong on both accounts. I tried changing timeout values on the drivers to 5, 20 and 60 minutes, each time trying once while 'maintain connections' was checked and once with it unchecked. Is there any way to make these new drivers actually run this second query? Is there a specific timeout value that would make the connection actually timeout and re-establish itself or NOT timeout... instead of timing out and then trying to use the timed out connection? Or am I on the wrong path with timeout values? Any advice would be fantastic.

RE: Adobe CS3 Web Edition leaves me wanting, moving to Eclipse! W AS (RE: Frameworks)
-Original Message- From: Andrew Scott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] One thing to keep in mind, not sure if you meant it like this or not. Never SVN production code, only development code. Andrew, Exactly what's wrong with using SVN with production code?

IIS Virtual DIrectories and Shared Scope Vars
Hello I posted this about a year ago, but got it working on a server of ours - now on a new server, same problem, and cant figure out why. Very simple: We have multiple sites: Site 1 Site 2 Site 3 Etc... Each is in its own directory structure, has its own application.cfm, etc. Each one has a virtual mapping in IIS to a directory called COMMON, that has some shared code. So within the IIS site for each site, there is a Virtual Directory mapping to this Common directory. Now, in the directory for COMMON, we have coldfusion code that we want to be able to access the scoped variables (such as application, request, etc) of each individual site when called from that site. So in the COMMON directory, there is an APPLICATION.CFM file that has one line: cfinclude template=/application.cfm This works flawless on one production server, but on another, we just get an error: Could not find the included template /application.cfm. Note: If you wish to use an absolute template path (e.g. TEMPLATE=/mypath/index.cfm) with CFINCLUDE then you must create a mapping for the path using the ColdFusion Administrator. Using relative paths (e.g. TEMPLATE=index.cfm or TEMPLATE=../index.cfm) does not require the creation of any special mappings. It is therefore recommended that you use relative paths with CFINCLUDE whenever possible. The error occurred in D:\hostedsites\clientsites\common\Application.cfm: line 2 1 : 2 : cfinclude template=/application.cfm 3 : For my life, I cannot figure out why. On the server that DOES work, we have no special CUSTOM TAG PATHS, no MAPPINGS,.and it works joyfully - its only on this new server. We are using CF version 7,0,2,142559 and IIS 5.0. Help is needed and appreciated! Thanks, Ben ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

RE: Adobe CS3 Web Edition leaves me wanting, moving to Eclipse! W AS (RE: Frameworks)
-Original Message- From: Aaron Roberson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wow, what a series of resourceful posts! Thanks Matt, Andrew and Damien. I have used Tortoise to pull items down from an SVN or CVN repository but I have never created one myself. I guess I don't understand how I would use SVN for a live web application. Would I create a mapping on my development machine to one of the trunks for testing in the browser and also set that trunk to deploy to the root of my live server? Sorry if that question is an unintelligible one, there are some major gaps in my understanding. Aaron, What we do is use trunk that's checked out on dev and production. Small updates are done directly to trunk. Larger changes are done on branches, then tested on QA and when ready merged into trunk. It's worked well for us without the need to use FTP or ANT.

Re: Multi-Language Site

This allows you to use Coldfusion internationalization for dates/currency formatting. you have to be careful with this. cf relies on core java for it's locale resource data which is often out-to-lunch (recent case in point, core java up to version 6 flubs en_Au en_NZ time formats, there are gobs gobs of other problems--the devil *is* in the details). you need to test your supported locale's data in core java versus something more standard like the CLDR project www.unicode.org/cldr/ then decide your approach (native cf i18n bits which are easier to use a bit faster vs something like icu4j which runs off the CLDR data has other goodies like non-gregorian calendars). For the sake of brevity, I left out that this particular site bypasses any CF/Java locale information for dealing with currency. That's been an ongoing problem, espeically with Asian and Middle Eastern currency symbols and formats. A good point on en_Au and en_NZ time formats, though. I haven't run into that issue with any of the client's partners, though we have several from Australia. I may have to look into a change there. particular site has around 50 different international sites pointing which really argues for the more traditional approach of resource bundles their ecosystem. i would hate to manage something this complex w/ notepad or it's equivalent. Not meaning to sound defensive, however, I don't find this aspect particularly complex. At the beginning, adding a new locale or Language posed new and interesting issues - Bangladesh, especially, was fun :) - but one trip around the world so to speak and the best practices emerged. Now dealing with adding new language/ currency to the application is a fairly straightforward affair. Don't get me wrong: I'm not saying that resource bundles aren't a more robust and inclusive method of handling internationalization, but also I think the needs of the Application may dictate whether it's a viable solution for a given project. In this case, the current structure allows a great deal of flexibility for the client and their partners and minimizes the development time required to maintain the application- providing a better ROI and speed-to-market for the client as they grow their business internationally. Resource bundles might be an option if the percent of business being driven from those markets necessitates it, though, so I would never count that option out.
