Need to convert all CFquery tags to lowercase
Hello, I do need to migrate from Access to MySQL on a Windows and shared server environment. All existing queries (approx 2000) are failing because they are not lowercased. Does anyone know of a script that would look into every files for the CFquery tag and lowercase its content between? This is the only solution that comes to me but maybe there is a easier way? Thanks in advance for any feedbacks. Phil ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Need to convert all CFquery tags to lowercase
Do you need all of the query lowercased or is there part that you want to keep uppercased? If you don't care then this regex will do the job: (cfquery[^]+.+?/cfquery) \L\1 The first line grabs all cfquery tags and their content and the second like converts it to lower case. I'd test the regex against all of your templates first to see if there are any cases that you want to avoid. You can use just about any regex tool to do the job, including writing a fast tool in CF to do the job. -- Michael Dinowitz On Fri, Feb 26, 2010 at 4:57 AM, phil phil arantxa...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, I do need to migrate from Access to MySQL on a Windows and shared server environment.

Re: Need to convert all CFquery tags to lowercase
As far as I know there is no requirement in MySQL for queries to be lowercase. I just ran one in all uppercase and it worked fine. There has to be something else causing this problem.

RE: Custom 404 Page
Actually, the better solution, in my opinion, is a basic HTML page. Unless you plan on doing something fancy each time a 404 is encountered, there is no need to create a CF request. Just set the custom 404 error template within IIS as you have already done and also set the Missing Template Handler within the CF Administrator. For instance, my Missing Template Handler within CF Admin is set to /customErrors/404.html. /customErrors is a CF mapping that points to a location where I keep my custom error templates. 404, 500, 500;100, etc... -Original Message- From: Andy Matthews [mailto:li...@commadelimited.com] Sent: Thursday, February 25, 2010 10:12 AM To: cf-talk Subject: RE: Custom 404 Page I think your best bet is to change your 404 handler to point to a coldfusion page.

Re: Need to convert all CFquery tags to lowercase
It seems that the table name is case sensitive but not the columns. For e.g if I change the name of the table to 'company' from 'Company' then it cannot find the table because in MYSQL it is referred as 'Company'. BTW, we are on Linux which I understand is case sensitive. If I recall right, you have to switch case sensitivity on, are you saying that is what your host has done?

Re: Need to convert all CFquery tags to lowercase
yes. REReplace. The pattern your trying to match is the first line. It says that we're looking to capture something that starts with a cfquery tag, has content, and then ends with a closing cfquery tag. The replace has a \L before the content returned from the pattern (the query tag). \L means that everything that comes after it will be lower cased. End result is a whole cfquery tag along with body converted to lower case. -- Michael Dinowitz On Fri, Feb 26, 2010 at 7:07 AM, phil phil arantxa...@gmail.com wrote: It cost me to make the below code to work.

Re: cfcomponent inheritance path
Lets say for example I have a component called baseapp.cfc sitting in the web root. I also have an application.cfc in a directory named /blog. If I want the application.cfc to extend the baseapp.cfc, I have to use the following syntax: extends=/.baseapp You shouldn't need the slash or the dot, just extends=baseapp, if it's in the web root. Along the same lines of thought, is there a way to extend a component without knowing it's exact location? Lets say that the blog directory is now a subdirectory of /myapps. I want an application.cfc that is in /myapps/blog/admin to extend the application.cfc sitting one level up in /myapps/blog. I don't know if the blog directory is in the root of the site, in myapps, or in some other location. All I know is that the application.cfc I want to extend is one directory up. Is there a way to do relative inheritance? I expect the answer is no. The answer is no, as you expected.

Building Hierarchal Lists using CF
Hello Gang, This one, I have to say, eludes me. There is probably a very easy way of doing this that I just don't see, but a little help would be awesome. I have a list of categories from a query where I have parent-child relationships going on, where my ID can also be associated within a column called 'PARENT'. Something like this: IDNameParent_ID 1 Category A 0 2 Category B 0 3 Category A1 1 4 Category A2 1 5 Category B12 6 Category B22 7 Category A3 1 .. and so on, to be displayed like this: Category A Category A1 Category A2 Category A3 Category B Category B1 Category B2 Anyways, I'm not quite sure how to handle this. Somehow I know a CFLOOP has to come into all of this (or several)? I'd like to be able to make this modular so that even 5 or 6 nests deep that every category in my query would show (without, of course, getting repetitive and redundant in coding).

Re: Need to convert all CFquery tags to lowercase
I tried this but as you can see I am REgex illiterate and more... REReplaceNoCase(TheFile,(cfquery[^]+.+?/cfquery),(cfquery[^]+.+?/cfquery\L\1),all) It will return the content of the cfquery but I am cannot find a way to lowercase it properly. Thanks yes. REReplace. The pattern your trying to match is the first line. It says that we're looking to capture something that starts with a cfquery tag, has content, and then ends with a closing cfquery tag. The replace has a \L before the content returned from the pattern (the query tag). \L means that everything that comes after it will be lower cased. End result is a whole cfquery tag along with body converted to lower case. -- Michael Dinowitz ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Apache AXIS version in CF9 and CF8?
Right Dave, I got my wires crossed there. I remember reading something a few years ago about being to replace the xml parser that comes with CF with one of a couple of others - do you know which parse is the one the comes with CF9 (or Cf8, I doubt that it has changed)? thanks -reed Anyone know for sure what versions of Axis are in CF8 and CF9? Or how to get Cf to expose that info? Am having parsing problems with a third party XML file, and they're curious as to what version is having the problems. They're putting a line like this after the first line of the file (ie, after the ?XML line): According to /META-INF/MANIFEST.MF within the axis.jar file on CF 9: Manifest-Version: 1.0 Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.5.3 Created-By: 1.4.2_05-b04 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)

If I remove that line from the file, then it parses ok via CF's xmlParse() function I don't think CF uses Axis to parse XML generally, it's a web service library. The line in question is a directive that specific applications could use to do something particular with that XML file, but other applications should ignore the directive. I don't know why CF isn't ignoring it, but I hope that helps a bit.

Re: ColdFusion 8 CPU Spiking
We have not been able to catch the SeeFusion stack traces while the problem is happening, we will do that. SQL is not running on the same box, JRUN is spiking. Good suggestion, we will contact the SeeFusion folks to see if they can help. Lincoln What does the SeeFusion stack traces show the requests are waiting on? Also, is SQL running on this same box, or is the CPU spike coming from JRun?

Re: Apache AXIS version in CF9 and CF8?
Hi Reed, I believe ColdFusion uses the JAXP (Java API For XML Parsing) which uses Apache Xerces on Java 1.5, 1.6 as the default DOM parser. Java 1.4 uses Apache Crimson as the default DOM parser. I have found the current versions of Java 1.6 use Xerces 2.6.2 You can run this code to find out what version of Xerces is being used by a Sun JVM cfset ver = CreateObject(java, com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.Version) cfoutputversion = #ver.getVersion()#/cfoutput The JAXP API is pluggable so you can actually plugin a different DOM Parser if you wanted by setting the Java system property: -Djavax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory=org.some.other.Factory But given the problem you have, I would simply just strip out the ?bulk application=mr_xml? tag from the XML document, that way you are not so tied to the server environment specifics. I was able to parse a document containing ?bulk application=mr_xml? with XmlParse using Java 1.5, are you running Java 1.4, and thus using crimson? (you can find out what version of java you are using by running this: http://www.petefreitag.com/item/743.cfm) Hope that helps. -- Pete Freitag http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?

Re: Apache AXIS version in CF9 and CF8?
Thanks for all the info Pete. I'm running CF9, so that's Java 1.6, and it uses Xerces 2.9.1, which seems to be the latest. Interesting that you were able to parse the xml using java 1.5 - maybe I'll give this a try on a CF8 box. I'll probably end up doing the stripping of that line, but it's a pain to do that because some of the files are big (400MB+) and don't have any line breaks in them, so first I need to make a pass over the file just to get line breaks before each XML tag, so that I can then use CFLOOP to go through it a second time on a line by line basis. If I try to read that whole file in at once CF (JVM actually) will roll over. thanks again for all the info, still digesting it, -reed ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Local DEV setup, multiple projects/websites
Yeah, what Charlie said. It is very easy to set up local sub domains with Apache. VirtualHost * ServerName site1.localhost DocumentRoot C:/xampp/htdocs/site1 /VirtualHost VirtualHost * ServerName site2.localhost DocumentRoot C:/xampp/htdocs/site2 /VirtualHost I find that it cuts down on a lot of chores like having to dynamically create urls and paths to cfcs.

If that's the case, you should still be able to set up the foo.dev and bar.dev sites in IIS, which gives you the equivalent of top level domains, even though they're subdirectories within your webroot.

RE: Local DEV setup, multiple projects/websites
I do something similar but use the host headers in IIS. I think they call it host name in the latest IIS. So my Hosts files looks like: 127.0.0.1 foo 127.0.0.1 moo Then the host header in IIS is foo and moo for each site. So you type in http://foo/ the hosts file routes it to IIS and IIS then routes it to the proper web site.

Re: Cleaning Microsoft .docx special chars
On Thu, Feb 25, 2010 at 6:32 AM, Kevin Pepperman ... We need it to be raw text, and we have specific filtering for Meta descriptions, page titles etc..(eg. no in meta description tags so the XHTML will validate) --so our CMS limits what can be entered with a combination of jQuery and server side validations after submitting to a XHR. So I probably wont be able to use a full RTE for this situation. I've seen this come up enough to toss another possible solution out there: We're starting to use the Jericho HTML library for parsing tags in CFEclipse, there is an example of cleaning bad markup there on the site. There's also an example of changing HTML into plain text, but with at least some formatting, which could work as well. I haven't really experimented with the HTML text conversion, but the cleaning stuff seems to be a pretty viable solution. Just tossing it out there, as you could do the cleaning as part of a custom tag or whatnot. :den -- The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.
