Re: Cfform upload - Form Field contains no file
I have re-written the code and it is working, except that the renaming of the
files (filefield=#variables.filename#) part is not working. When I dump (see
code below) the session variable that I am assigning to filefield, I get the
correct result, but the filename is not changed on upload when I check them at
where there are stored.

Fawzi,
Are you saying that you removed the nested cf-tags and the problem persists?
If that is what you are saying, please post your new code as edited, so we
can see what else might be wrong.

Re: Cfform upload - Form Field contains no file
cffile action=upload DOES NOT rename files. it just moves the
uploaded file from the temp upload dir on the server to the dir on the
server you specify in the DESTINATION attribute.
depending on the value of NAMECONFLICT attribute, this action will
either overwrite a file with the same name if it already exists in the
destination folder, or will append a sequential number to the file name.
to rename a file you should use cffile action=rename.

Re: Page Encoding inside CFC?
Thanks much -- this is exactly what I needed. I don't know why, but I had only tried putting it above the cfcomponent tag. Cheers, Kris We are using encoding declarations in cfcs just after cfcomponent tag and everything works fine: cfcomponent output=no cfprocessingdirective pageencoding=utf-8 cfset setEncoding(URL, utf-8) cfset setEncoding(Form, utf-8) Bilgehan I've got a function that replaces accented characters with english-type characters -- this is for file naming and such. It works fine until I put the function in a component. On a plain ole .cfm page, it works great as long as the cfprocessingdirective for pageencoding=utf-8. Without the directive, it works fine on text typed directly into the template, but text returned from a database call is not replaced correctly. In the .cfc, I'm unsure how to force the encoding. I'm running CF7. Any advice is greatly appreciated. ~| 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:321213 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Delete old log files - make sure you roll them on occasion. If your sending lots of email out via CFMAIL make sure your mail/undelivered folder is not store large amounts of undeliverable mail. Do what the others have suggested.

Re: would you consider this a bug, CF8
That's odd, but not unexpected. Since you're starting on the 30th, it's
adding a month to that and reduces when the month doesn't have 30 days in
it. It's not taking the initiative of thinking you want the last day of the
month.
Maybe this would work?

Its not a bug infact its exactly as you specified try this instead:

with a single m
here is a good reference for dateFormat:

Re: Button to support both IE and Firefox
Thank you, Peter. I'll try it tonight and update you folks then.
Don, the following code should work in all major browsers - certainly
I've tested in Firefox 3, IE7, Chrome, and Opera 9.
Here's the HTML:
button type=button class=download data-file=http://xyz.
com/somefile.zipDownload the File/button
Note how I've used a class there - instead of inline styles - here is
the styling:
style type=text/css
button.download
{
background-color: lightgreen;
width: 150px;
}
/style
Finally, here is the scripting to use:
script type=text/javascript src=http://ajax.googleapis.
com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js/script
script type=text/javascript
$j = jQuery.noConflict();
$j(document).ready
( function()
{
$j('.download').click( downloadFile );
}
);
function downloadFile()
{
location.href = $j(this).attr('data-file');
}
/script
This is all a lot of code, but it is a more reliable/flexible way of
doing it, especially for when (not if) you need to extend things.
Feel free to ask if any of this is unclear. :)

Re: would you consider this a bug, CF8
couple things... 1. its easy as pie to code around, i was actually
doing first of next month, less 1 day... which works as well
as your idea... and thanks!
second, maybe there needs to be another incrementer, that does it
logically based on calendar month, rather than days, since
what is a month? its a begin on the 1st and end on a known variable
day. simply incrementing by a set number of days
to find the day next month is weird, since not all months have all
those days. maybe the JAVA should be smart enough to notice
that the date is an end of a month, and if the incrementer is m, go
by calendar month, not by same day next month... right?

Simple text to image?

Re: Coldfusion 8 Server Install
Hi There, OK! It's up and running now after I did the following: [1]. create a .CAR file from CF8 Developer version [2]. uninstall CF7 enterprise and CF8 dev [3]. reinstalled CF8 dev as the single server and redeployed the .car [4]. convert Dev to CF8 Standard. Note: if you have put anything (CustomTags, and etc.) previously in the ColdFusion8 folder, you need to double check whether it's still there after the re-installation because you may have installed CF8 in a new folder. Thank all of you very much!

Re: would you consider this a bug, CF8
You will need to build into it some kludge then that if the month has
21 days, calculate it that way and so on.
I don't think ColdFusion has a Last day of the month function. I may
be incorrect though. I still haven't had my morning coffee.

I guess the best solution would be like you said: add another incrementer.

Re: would you consider this a bug, CF8
i think it would be ok, if it was the END of the month, you know...
since if i put in 11/30
and i say, ok, cf increment that by a month... i cant imagine a use
case where anyone
in any industry would want it to not go to the end of December? but
yeah, a different incrementer
would be the BEST case, i think.

.net cookies transfer to CF Session Values?
I've got a client that's decided to try and use a .net login system written for one of their sites for *all* their sites, including the huge CF site I maintain for them. Looking at the .net code for this thing *really* reminds me why I like Coldfusion so much - sheesh, 15 or so files and a couple thousand lines of code to log somebody in? Anyway, it all comes down to the below if the login is successful: Response.Cookies[mysite_loggedin].Value = user+|+pass+|+pin; Response.Cookies[mysite_loggedin].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(14); HttpCookie aCookie = new HttpCookie(mysite_loggedin); aCookie.Value = user+|+pass+|+pin; aCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(14); Response.Cookies.Add(aCookie); I'd like to be able to transfer those cookie values over to CF Session values, which thusly would have them counted as logged in on the CF Admin section of the CF site. I'm not .net literate - but could somebody point me in the right direction to be able to swap the .net cookes/values for CF session values?

Re: CF 7 install...What can I delete to get more space?
I have a government machine that an idiot configured. It has 11GB of space on the C drive and I constantly have to delete things to gain space. I currently have 12MB of free space on C drive with all my apps on E drive. When C drive fills up, you all know what happens to the app. What in the CFusionMX7 can I delete to get more space? In the db folder, there is a folder called slserver54 what is that? The slserver54 directory contains the files used by the ODBC-JDBC bridge (SequeLink) used by CF. * wouldn't delete anything in the CF folder other than logs. I suggest you reinstall CF onto the other drive. If that's not an option, you might be able to move it without reinstalling it. The easiest way to do this is: 1. Stop CF and CF-related services. 2. Move the CF folder to the second drive. 3. Use junction.exe, a Sysinternals tool, to create a junction on the first drive that points to the folder on the second drive. 4. Restart CF and CF-related services. This requires that both drives be NTFS. It should take about ten minutes.

CF8 linux not recognising CF mapping
I'm trying to port from CF7 on windows to CF8 on linux. Everything was going fine, and was working, and then something happened and it went wierd: things which were previously working weren't. The guys configuring the linux box can't remember what they might have done as this happened a while ago. When I try to include a file via a CF mapping, it not only fails to find the file, but it doesn't throw a file not found exception, and just includes the index.cfm again, leading to an infinite loop. Any ideas why it isn't picking up the CF mapping? (The failure to throw an error, and to re-include the index.cfm is also odd, but that appears to happen on my mac CF8 when the CF mapping doesn't exist, so i'm not so concerned about that. I just need to get it to honour the CF mapping) Cheers Bert Here's my mapping, which points to the webroot: /testmapping1 /home/bdawson/trips/trunk/trips2/www_versions/-wvr-en-something-/ The contents of the webroot: [bdaw...@cfusion-tng -wvr-en-something-]$ pwd /home/bdawson/trips/trunk/trips2/www_versions/-wvr-en-something- [bdaw...@cfusion-tng -wvr-en-something-]$ ls -l -rwxrwxrwx 1 bdawson likewise 59 Apr 2 09:53 Application.cfc -rwxrwxrwx 1 bdawson likewise 59 Apr 2 09:53 include.cfm -rwxrwxrwx 1 bdawson likewise 301 Apr 2 10:26 index.cfm Application.cfc and include.cfm both contain the following: brbr cfoutput#getcurrenttemplatepath()#/cfoutput brbr index.cfm has: cfoutput cfparam name=request.counter default=0 cfset request.counter = request.counter + 1 cfif request.counter GT 3 brAborted in #getcurrenttemplatepath()# to prevent infinite loop cfabort /cfif brbr #getcurrenttemplatepath()# br cftry include #request.counter#: cfinclude template=/testmapping1/include.cfm cfcatchcfdump var=#cfcatch.message#/cfcatch /cftry brbr /cfoutput And here's the output i get: /home/bdawson/trips/trunk/trips2/www_versions/-wvr-en-homeaway-/Application.cfc /home/bdawson/trips/trunk/trips2/www_versions/-wvr-en-homeaway-/index.cfm include 1: /home/bdawson/trips/trunk/trips2/www_versions/-wvr-en-homeaway-/index.cfm include 2: /home/bdawson/trips/trunk/trips2/www_versions/-wvr-en-homeaway-/index.cfm include 3: Aborted in /home/bdawson/trips/trunk/trips2/www_versions/-wvr-en-homeaway-/index.cfm to prevent infinite loop It looks like the file is being not found, but in stead of throwing an exception it is including the index.cfm If I change the cfinclude to be cfinclude template= testmapping1/include.cfm then it throws a file not found exception as expected. ~| 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:321234 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Re: CF 7 install...What can I delete to get more space?
If you have MSSQL server installed on the C drive the log files get pretty big. Even under light use the SQL server on my dev box has racked up over 100 megs in log files. I would also look and see if Disk Cleanup can buy you some space: Accessories System Tools disk cleanup. You can also look at having Windows compress old log files (if you need to keep them) .

POST variables not accessible with clean URL system in IIS 7
Using IIS7 to pass fake URLs throught to ColdFusion for parsing. Ex: http://www.whatev.com/benForta/favoriteFoods/ Note: There is no benForta nor favoriteFoods directory. The URL scope works perfectly but when I submit a form using POST the scope isn't populated. CGI.CONTENT_TYPE knows it's a application/x-www-form-urlencoded request, but I can't get to those variables. Is there some lower-level way to access the POST data ( I'm assuming URL and FORM just parse from some HTTP handover collection or string )??

You can try looking at GetHTTPRequestData(). Not sure if that has what you need (and I think it changes the way it functions if FILE data is submitted with FORM).

Re: would you consider this a bug, CF8
Definitely not odd, when you think through all the possible use cases. If I build an auto-incrementer that takes in any start date, then I may have a July 28 start, which would indicate that 1 month out must be August 28 and one month back must be June 28. Given that scenario, how would the underlying code ever be expected to jump from that to assume that one month forward from February 28 would need to be March 31? Yes, they're both the end of month, but 3/31 is not really one month out from 2/28, while 6/28 is always precisely one month back from 7/28. If what you always want is give me the end of the next month, then that needs to be a special case, as indicated in several of the solutions presented on this thread to date.

David, Sorry, I didn't mean with your underlying code :) I mean that maybe there is something wrong with the way the URL rewrite is configured.

Re: POST variables not accessible with clean URL system in IIS 7
But that method is exactly what I was looking for. And it seems like it's a bug, because the content key provided by that method is empty. Dangit.

Re: POST variables not accessible with clean URL system in IIS 7
NP Ben, I was just confused. So you actually don't have to configure any URL rewriting with IIS 6+. You just grab the site, update the 404 custom error handler to use a URL ( Like /index.cfm ), and then change the feature settings mode to custom errors. It'll then pass everything through to the CF template you specify. From there on I'm just dumping things on that template, and neither FORM, or the result of GetHTTPRequestData are populated, which is the real issue.

Re: Query Retries
I wouldn't say there is a rule of thumb for this, if your Query is failing more than 4 times, and it happens often enough for you to need to think about this, then I think you need to stop look at how to deal with and look for ways to fix it. Why is it that your running into this problem? I can't imagine a production system where it would be acceptable to have that level of query failure. =] -- Alan Rother Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion MX 7 Developer Manager, Phoenix Cold Fusion User Group, AZCFUG.org ~| 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:321257 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
Re: .net cookies transfer to CF Session Values?
So, basically, the username and password is written out in plain text in the cookie for anyone to steal. Great security. Anyway, don't just trust the existence of the cookie - you need to log the user in to your site with the username and password. Otherwise, I can just manipulate my browser to set a cookie called mysite_loggedin and get logged in to your site. Read the value of the cookie from the COOKIE scope and send the user|pass|pin to your code to log them in. Then, hope that no-one executes a successful XSS attack on your users. Then, fire the .NET developer. mxAjax / CFAjax docs and other useful articles: http://www.bifrost.com.au/blog/ 2009/4/2 Les Mizzell lesm...@bellsouth.net: I've got a client that's decided to try and use a .net login system written for one of their sites for *all* their sites, including the huge CF site I maintain for them. Looking at the .net code for this thing *really* reminds me why I like Coldfusion so much - sheesh, 15 or so files and a couple thousand lines of code to log somebody in? Anyway, it all comes down to the below if the login is successful: Response.Cookies[mysite_loggedin].Value = user+|+pass+|+pin; Response.Cookies[mysite_loggedin].Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(14); HttpCookie aCookie = new HttpCookie(mysite_loggedin); aCookie.Value = user+|+pass+|+pin; aCookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(14); Response.Cookies.Add(aCookie); I'd like to be able to transfer those cookie values over to CF Session values, which thusly would have them counted as logged in on the CF Admin section of the CF site. I'm not .net literate - but could somebody point me in the right direction to be able to swap the .net cookes/values for CF session values? Ideas? ~| 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:321258 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
Re: Looking for a Fusebox 4+ or 5+ eCommerce solution
I am on the hunt for a CF Fusebox 4+ or 5+ eCommerce solution, and can't find any -- other than the demos at Fusebox.org. Has no one developed such a thing? I would build one myself, but I just don't know how I would find the time to do so. CFWebstore is a somewhat modified FB3 app, so it's closer than most of what is out there. I'd been looking at migrating it over to FB 5.5 which should at least be considerably easier than converting it would have been on the earlier 4/5 releases, just have a lot of other more important things to work on at the moment (the vast majority of my users really couldn't care less about the FB version...and many would prefer I don't change the code at all. ;-) If moving it to FB 5.5 might be something you would consider assisting with, we could probably work some kind of trade out. It certainly would be a lot less work than writing something from scratch, depending on the level of functionality you needed. --- Mary Jo Sminkey Author of CFWebstore, ColdFusion Ecommerce http://www.cfwebstore.com ~| 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:321259 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: Query Retries
Just speaking for myself here-- I never retry a query. Most errors I tend to get with a database call is due to something like a column not existing or some data truncation error that is going to happen no matter how many times I try it. The only times I have ever really seen SQL Server throw an error that is recoverable is when it is trying to to connect to some remote linked server via ODBC and the connection has timed out. In those specific instances, the query always works the second time. Why don't you tell us what kind of errors you usually have thrown from the database. ~Brad Original Message Subject: Query Retries From: Byte Me byteme...@verizon.net Date: Thu, April 02, 2009 3:46 pm To: cf-talk cf-talk@houseoffusion.com Is there a rule of thumb on how many times a query should be retried?
