Re: cfmail with gmail - second question
According to

http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=enanswer=13287 gmail
requires either SSL or TLS to send email from a client
I tried your code, but added the following and it worked:

I haven't tried it, but if you want to use TLS instead of SSL, you can do
port=587

RE: CF9 cfquery not giving same insert results as CF7
Use SCOPE_IDENTITY(). @@Identity returns the id for the last record inserted. If an another insert into that table occurs between your insert and the select @@identity (2 different people making inserts into the db for example) you will get the id for the other record that was inserted. Scope identity only pulls the last record for the current scope. Sort of like putting something in a transaction. It all sticks together. (however putting a query in a transaction with @@identity will not solve the problem above). As for the SET NOCOUNT ON and SET NOCOUNT OFF, they have no effect on these. The only thing that does is prevent extra network traffic by stopping the extra reporting of how many rows were affected for each piece of the query. Of course I'm assuming that this is MSSQL.

I can do one of three things here. 1. replace the name attribute with the result attribute: cfquery name=AddAgent becomes cfquery result=AddAgent 2. add a result attribute of the same name to the cfquery cfquery name=AddAgent becomes cfquery name=AddAgent result=AddAgent 3. use a 'generic' result value to the cfquery cfquery name=AddAgent becomes cfquery name=AddAgent result=QueryResult The problem that I see is that I don't know everywhere that the query results will be used. Is anything returned to the 'name' variable of the query? If not, then will removing it cause some other unforeseen effect? (experiments so far say no) Will the use of both a name and a result conflict? (experiments so far say no) How will all this interact with Fusebox? Is the results of a query in an act_ page supposed to be 'exposed' to the dsp_ page? If anyone has a clue or two on which way I should go on this, please let me know.

Luckily, the RegEx to find all of the locations took 60 seconds to write. Literally. The hard is fast, the easy is slow. How standard for me. :) -- Michael I just ran into this and while it's new to me, I'm sure it's old news to others here. I'm looking at someones code from CF 7 where they have a cfquery inserting a record. The cfquery tag only has a name and a datasource. Immediately after the tag, there is a cfset that makes use of the query's name and the name of the identity field of the table that the data was inserted into. cfquery name=testquery datasource=test insert ... /cfquery cfset newid = testquery.identityfield In CF 7, the newid would be the id of the newly inserted record. In CF 9 all I get is an error. If I use a result attribute rather than a name attribute, I get a structure with the identity result buried in it. So here's the question. If it worked in 7 and not in 9, is there a simple fix to make it work like it did in 7 again? I'd rather not have to recode a whole slew of insert statements.

Re: CF9 cfquery not giving same insert results as CF7
Thanks. This gives me a bit of extra information on top of the research I've done on the topic. Now comes a few extended questions. :) 1. When a cfquery has a result attribute defined, it will return data about the query and in the case of an insert, the id of the inserted item. The assumption is that under the hood CF is using scope_identity() (for MSSQL). Do you have any idea if this is the case? Just trivia and something I should test anyway. 2. From what you say of NoCount, I assume that there would be a minor performance benefit for sql insert, update, and delete operations to use it, correct?

RE: CF9 cfquery not giving same insert results as CF7
I don't know what CF9 is doing under the hood. What I do is put all the queries in stored procedures. At the beginning of the procedure I always put SET NOCOUNT ON and I always end with SET NOCOUNT OFF. If you have a procedure that is doing a lot of stuff it can reduce a lot of back and forth and network traffic. I had one procedure that did a lot of data pulls and combining of data, without using the nocount, the amount of messages about xx rows affected was way larger than the actual data that was returned. Sometimes it's the other way around. When I'm testing something I leave them off so I can see what is happening. Think of it sort of like turning off debug in production for cf. It's not really critical data, but if you don't do it you get a lot of overhead.

cfscript's cfabort
I have some CFScript running and each time I set a variable I run a function to
check if there is an error.
If there is an error I would like to CFAbort the scripting so it does not
continue. Can you abort the rest of the script if the error function is
called? I tried break; in the function, but that does not seem to work.
Kinda like this:
cfscript
TK = createObject(COM,APToolkit.Object,expandPath('APToolkitNET.dll'));
varReturn = TK.stitchPDF(expandPath(pdf),1,0,0,546,546,0);
if (varReturn 1) {
error(stichPDF);
}
TK.CloseOutputFile();
ReleaseComObject(TK);
function error(method) {
errMsg = #method# failed with a #varReturn#;
ReleaseComObject(TK);
??CFAbort??
}
/cfscript
cfoutput#errMsg#/cfoutpu

As for the SET NOCOUNT ON and SET NOCOUNT OFF, they have no effect on these. The only thing that does is prevent extra network traffic by stopping the extra reporting of how many rows were affected for each piece of the query. In CF8 it did have an effect on cfquery's in some situations. Specifically the simple INSERT followed by SELECT scope_identity() scenario. I do not about CF9. Though I will say the results in CF8 varied greatly depending on a number of conditions (statement used, driver version, etcetera).

If I cant get the COM object to store as a session or application variable I will probably end up storing the created PDF name as a session variable and each function will go open that PDF and add the image, text etc then save the PDF back down.

CF Equivalent of JAVA code.
Hi All, I'm trying to do some work and I have some java examples. For the most part I can easily convert to CF, but I'm not sure how to convert this: If(wb instanceof XSSFWorkbook) file += x; I don't know how to check if wb is an instance of XSSFWorkbook. Wb could be XSSFWorkbook or HSSFWorkbook. Thanks, Steve ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Need to create an ecrypted zip file
Running CF 7 we are using the zip.cfc to create a dynamic zip file and this works great. We need to then add a password to this. we tried to use the tag cfx_zippassword to add a password and I am getting a wierd error. if you only have one file it works, but if you add more then only the first works but all others give you an error when you try to extract them. Does anyone know a way to do this. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Clients Can't Login - IE8 Caching?
Sometimes people fail when they login to my site, even with the correct info. As I made my own log of success/fails I saw the attempts weren't even being logged. I had one user delete the temp file cache, in IE8, and it magically worked (and was properly logged...so now the login page actually loaded where before it didn't.). So what happened? Why did the login page not execute and the member automatically went to the failed login page? Is this just an IE thing?... What could I do on my CF side to make sure the login page executes?

Dohh, it wasn't that, but when you did that I decided to cfdump the object. After a little investigation, I found that cfif findNoCase(XSSFWorkbook, Variables.wb1.class.getCanonicalName()) Is the equivalent of what I needed.

You can use the IsInstanceOf() function in CF8+ to do this, but you would need the full package classname of XSSFWorkbook, for example: cfif IsInstanceOf(wb, com.example.XSSFWorkbook) ... /cfif Pete Freitag http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

RE: CF Equivalent of JAVA code.
Definitely good to know. I'm hoping that when I'm done with the changes to a cfc I'm working on it will be backward compatible all the way to CFMX. We have a lot of different versions throughout the company and it would be nice if we had one cfc for all/most of them. Maybe in the future I'll use that for CF8 and after!

Re: Clients Can't Login - IE8 Caching?
I have had a similar problem with my site recently, could i ask whether you use session variables as the structure for your login process and also whether you have J2EE session variables enabled or just using regular session variables (cookie based) in your CF admin settings. Not sure if your issue is the same and i am also not sure if I have fully solved my issue but the instances have reduced. I am restricted by the hosting company config, they don't allow j2ee session variables and I had an issue with the regular session variables not clearing and users could not login. This can be an issue with cflocation if you have a redirect post vaildating the user credentials and you would also check that you are clearing the session variables upon logout. If you can enable j2ee it should solve the issue or in my case I have a bunch of cfide cookie expiries and structdelete's to clear the CFIDE tokens onSessionEnd in my app.cfc I found these posts useful, may not be your issue but interesting the same: http://www.jensbits.com/2009/07/29/coldfusion-dropping-losing-or-resetting-session-variables-and-cfidcftoken/ http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/msg35466.html Cheers, Bas.

RE: Clients Can't Login - IE8 Caching?
I have seen some problems with jQuery and IE8 caching. IE8 sees the same URL variables and decides to use the cached page rather than loading the page again. I added a time stamp variable (foo=hhmmss) to my URLs and IE sees the different URL variables and loads the page rather than using the cached version. -Original Message- From: Randy Zeitman [mailto:stonerosedesigndot...@yahoo.com] Sent: Friday, January 29, 2010 2:12 PM To: cf-talk Subject: Clients Can't Login - IE8 Caching?

Re: Clients Can't Login - IE8 Caching?
A form post shouldn't be cached, and https URLs shouldn't be cached either. Does your login page perform a form post? Does it use SSL? For the login attempts you say aren't logged in your custom logging solution, do the Web server logs have any record of the form posts? If your Web server is showing hits, then you can bump caching down on the list of possibilities. Inspect the Web log for one of the failed login attempts and compare it to a successful login, The difference between the two could reveal the problem, assuming you are logging detailed information, such as cookie contents. The most common error I have seen that fits these symptoms is that the logout page and the login page are the same page, such as login.cfm?action=logout. People bookmark the logout page, thinking they are bookmarking the login page, and the login logic doesn't account for this possibility.

Re: Clients Can't Login - IE8 Caching?
In the past I had issues staying logged in if the url didnât have the www. in it, you could log in but every page would ask you for a login and this was just with setting a reg session, so I forced the www. on the name and it was fine after. I have seen some problems with jQuery and IE8 caching. IE8 sees the same URL variables and decides to use the cached page rather than loading the page again.
