Re: SOT: Best CF development laptop
Some thoughts to add to the mix. I consistently buy Dell laptops, for a variety of reasons, but primarily for their 3 year, on site support. As a contractor, even a single day downtime is no good. No idea which part of the world you are in, but here in australia, I've called tech support at 3pm and had a tech at my house 9am the next morning to fix my computer. If you can find a brand of laptops that provide multi-year on site support, it's invaluable. On another note - if you want the best performance out of your vms, put them on an external hd, the faster the better, with the fastest connection as well.

Re: SOT: Best CF development laptop
I bought a high-end Vaio once. Within two years it was literally falling apart. Keys missing, screen shorting out, etc. The Apple Powerbook I bought to replace it still looks like new almost seven years later. IMHO nobody makes a better laptop than Apple, even if you just put Windows on it. It may be more expensive up front but you get what you pay for and you make most of it back on resale anyway. I know it's a cliché answer, but there it is. Maybe Sony's hardware quality has improved since 2001. Andrew.

Re: Has anyone ever successfully changed an AD password through CFLDAP?!
There's a discrepancy that may be the issue in the way that CFLDAP's handling the final UTF-16LE encoded double-quote - that java's showing a 22 00 byte pair, but the CFLDAP's dropping the 2nd byte of the character: Java (works): 0050: 0A 01 02 30 2E 04 0A 75 6E 69 63 6F 64 65 50 77 ...0...unicodePw 0060: 64 31 20 04 1E 22 00 6E 00 65 00 77 00 50 00 61 d1 ...n.e.w.P.a 0070: 00 73 00 73 00 77 00 6F 00 72 00 64 00 31 00 21 .s.s.w.o.r.d.1.! 0080: 00 22 00 A0 1B 30 19 04 17 32 2E 31 36 2E 38 34 0...2.16.84 ^ CFLDAP (fails): 0050: 0A 01 02 30 2B 04 0A 75 6E 69 63 6F 64 65 50 77 ...0+..unicodePw 0060: 64 31 1D 04 1B 22 00 6E 00 65 00 77 00 50 00 61 d1n.e.w.P.a 0070: 00 73 00 73 00 77 00 6F 00 72 00 64 00 31 00 22 .s.s.w.o.r.d.1. ^^ 0080: A0 1B 30 19 04 17 32 2E 31 36 2E 38 34 30 2E 31 ..0...2.16.840.1 ^^ So I'm suspecting AD's not liking the password. Nothing I do gets that double-quote right - seems to be deep inside the CFLDAP tag. Dear Ed, You are absolutely right and your post is the only one I was able to find on the internet that explains this bug or simply unsupported feature of CFLDAP. I experimented with it too and tried to add trailing 0's to the end of properly formatted unicodePwd, but noticed that CFLDAP cuts off all bytes at the end of attribute value whose ASCII code is less than or equal 32 (interestingly, when I tried to add characters above ASCII code 127, 0 was not removed but some bytes were added so this could not help with password reset either). I guess that the idea was to remove all special characters, such as tabs, CR, LF, etc, before submitting modify command to LDAP, therefore disabling us to reset AD passwords. As a reference to your code, I used a little bit different conversion functions, since I worked on Coldfusion 6.1 and it does not support charsetEncode/charsetDecode functions: cfset new_password = 'newPassword1' / cfset a = ToString(new_password.getBytes(UnicodeLittleUnmarked)) / Everything seemed fine, except CFLDAP and I couldn't make it work. That's why I decided to try to inject java code in ColdFusion, as I could not add java custom tags. After some experimenting with the code I could find on the internet, I was able to make it work with the following lines: cfset new_password = 'newPassword1' / cfset unicodePwd = new_password.getBytes(UnicodeLittleUnmarked) / cfset javaEnv = CreateObject(java, java.util.Hashtable).Init() / cfset ldapsURL = ldaps://someLDAPServer.somedomain.com:636 / cfset javaEnv.put(java.naming.provider.url, ldapsURL) / cfset javaEnv.put(java.naming.security.principal, CN=Administrator, CN=Users, dc=ad2003-dev, dc=com) / cfset javaEnv.put(java.naming.security.credentials, Administrator'sPassword) / cfset javaEnv.put(java.naming.security.authentication, simple) / cfset javaEnv.put(java.naming.security.protocol, ssl) / cfset javaEnv.put(java.naming.factory.initial, com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory) / cfset javaCtx = CreateObject(java, javax.naming.directory.InitialDirContext).Init(javaEnv) / cfset javaAttr = CreateObject(java, javax.naming.directory.BasicAttributes).Init(unicodePwd, unicodePwd) / cfset javaCtx.modifyAttributes(CN=Ed Test, OU=Users, OU=Development, OU=IB, dc=ad2003-dev, dc=com, javaCtx.REPLACE_ATTRIBUTE, javaAttr) / cfset javaCtx.close() / ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:335974 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: oracle database link
I assume you mean a link from one oracle schema to another schema by executing the CREATE DATABASE LINK sql command through a CFML page. Is this correct? If it is check your permissions. This most likely has nothing to do with CF. As I side note, I don't think CFML pages should be running this sort of code. You should just login to your Oracle DB and run that command to create a link. Curious? Is there a reason why you just don't create a new CF datasource in the CF ADMIN?

Re: SESSION variables and cflock
The book says you should act on SESSION variables within a cflock because of potential collisions. But are my SESSION variables not mine and inaccessible to anyone else? How could there be a collision? The same browser can make multiple concurrent requests; they will all be in the same session.

Re: SOT: Best CF development laptop
On another note - if you want the best performance out of your vms, put them on an external hd, the faster the better, with the fastest connection as well. Yikes! I'm sorry, but this is overall terrible advice unless you happen to have external eSATA or something along those lines. Most people have external drives using USB 2, and running VMs from that will be exponentially slower. I haven't tried USB 3 yet, but no matter what it's not going to match the performance from running them onboard.

Re: SOT: Best CF development laptop
And don't settle for less than 8gbs of RAM. 64 bit software has a tendency to eat up RAM news to me :0) is it not that just that 64bit tech has the ability to fully access 4gb of ram at the one time (If the os needs access to it) rather than eats it up. Anyone care to explain this one to me? i'm about to buy a new laptop and would appreciate some advice A 64-bit OS can address more than 4 GB RAM. 32-bit OSs generally can't. To oversimplify things a bit, numeric data types in a 64-bit OS are larger (64-bit vs 32-bit) to take advantage of the increase in register size. So, storing the same information in a 64-bit OS takes more memory than it does in a 32-bit OS. But, this is outweighed by the ability to address more memory in the first place. So, for example, on a 32-bit OS a JVM can't really address more than 1.5 GB RAM (if even that), but on a 64-bit OS a JVM can address significantly more RAM so it doesn't really matter that it needs more memory in the first place.

Re: OOP Principles question
I understand the black box principle of CFC's, make sure that your cfc's can stand on their own as black boxes. When doing OOP based development, does this paradigm extend to non-cfc ColdFusion files, IE: display and action pages. In general, any program should have a defined set of inputs and outputs, and CFML pages are no different. However, dependencies are much more acceptable in CFML pages than in CFCs. For example, includes, references to external scopes, etc - that's all fine in CFML pages. So, my overall advice here would be not to overthink display logic - it's the least formal layer in an HTML-based MVC application.

Re: SESSION variables and cflock
Think iframes or Ajax calls or other types of situations where A User may be session-linked to more than one current thread / process. In those cases, if there is potential for simultaneous writes to a session var, then you could theoretically have a clash. If your app uses no Ajax and has no other embedded code blocks that might trigger concurrency within a session, then locking would not be needed, in theory. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:335984 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: UBBCode img tag exploit
Interesting thread. The parseBBML() UDF that I wrote for CFMBB (based on Jim Davis' DP_ParseBBML) has this flaw, I just tested it. Basically, I think the fix is to modify this line: Input = ReReplaceNoCase(Input, \[(img|image)\]([^[#Chr(171)#]*)\[/(img|image)\], #Chr(171)#img src=#Chr(167)#\2#Chr(167)##Chr(187)#, All); (the funky chr() values are temporary replacement characters for the conversion process).

Re: SOT: Best CF development laptop
Maybe I am off base with this one, but the research I did a while back stated that the biggest bottleneck to vm performance was disk io conflicts.

Re: SOT: Best CF development laptop
Maybe I am off base with this one, but the research I did a while back stated that the biggest bottleneck to vm performance was disk io conflicts. That is definitely a big issue in a production environment, where you're more likely to be running multiple VMs. But in a developer's typical environment, that is going to be massively outweighed by the terribly slow access via USB 2 or Firewire. I.e. if your vm lives on the same hd as your os and your programs they are all competing to read and write at the same time. Having a separate hd, internal or external solves that problem. (i have an external 7200 rpm firewire drive). A separate internal HDD definitely makes a big difference, but I can say from experience that the transfer speed of Firewire just isn't enough. I got an external eSATA drive, and that's sufficient, but I can't tell any significant difference (for me) from the internal SSD in my primary laptop (other than not having to store these giant files on my limited internal space).

Re: onApplicationStart
That's by design. CF knows when an application starts. You can 'force' it a few ways. 1) In CF9, within onRequestStart, add a check for url.init (or some such), and run applicationStop(), you then need to reload the current request. 2) Or even simpler, within onRequestStart, add a check for a url var and simply do onApplicationStart(); This will NOT single thread the call, but if you are just setting up a bunch of variables, you most likely do not need to be concerned. 3) I don't really recommend this, but you can also just rename the application.

CF knows when an application starts. You can 'force' it a few ways. 1) In CF9, within onRequestStart, add a check for url.init (or some such), and run applicationStop(), you then need to reload the current request. 2) Or even simpler, within onRequestStart, add a check for a url var and simply do onApplicationStart(); This will NOT single thread the call, but if you are just setting up a bunch of variables, you most likely do not need to be concerned. 3) I don't really recommend this, but you can also just rename the application.

Read only text datasource?
Hi, I want to read records from a tab delimited log file, so I have defined an ODBC datasource on the directory, and a DSN on the ODBC socket in the CF administrator (CF 9). All I want to do is read the records: CFQUERY DATASOURCE=logSMTP NAME=getLogs SELECT * FROM [#file#.log] /CFQUERY I get this error: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only. But I don't to update, just read the file, and the file is not even read only. Is there any way I can define a read only datasource?

Handling errors under CF 9
Hi, I have this code in Application.cfm CFERROR TYPE = Exception template = /commun/requestError.cfm Under CF 5 and untill CF 8, the application scope was not changed when running requestError.cfm even if it is in the virtual directory \commun But now in CF 9, the Application.cfm in the commun directory is executed first, and the application scope is reset.

Re: query add row at top of query
I know I'm a little late to the game here, but wouldn't the easier way be
just to union an explicitly set row?
It's a LOT less code and lets the db take the load.
cfquery name=GetParks datasource=cfdocexamples
SELECT PARKNAME, REGION, STATE, cORDER = 2
FROM Parks
Where REGION = 'Southeast Region'
UNION
SELECT TOP 1
PARKNAME = 'myName',

STATE = 'myState',
cORDER = 1

i have a query which has sort criteria applied at mysql level.
i want to add a row at the top of the query after mysql has
finished with it.
If i use the queryaddrow method it adds the row to the bottom of
the query
is there anyway to get it to add it as the first item?
You could add the new row in the SQL itself using a UNION statement,
couldn't you?
Otherwise, you could add it using queryAddRow, querySetCell, etc,
but
you'd have to figure out how to get things in the order that you
want
them. You could create a new query, add the row to the new query,
then
loop through the old query and add each row to the new query. Or you
could use queryAddRow and querySetCell with the existing query, but
have a sortable field for all rows including the new row, then use
query of query to sort the query again.
But I'd go with doing this in your SQL if I were you.

Re: cflayout question
There is definitely a difference between CF8 and CF9. I understand

the layout is different and I cannot make it to use the whole screen

Something a bit simpler may be to use the ApplicationStop function. From QuickDocs: http://cfquickdocs.com/cf9/?getDoc=applicationstopDescription Stops or resets the current application. The application is restarted on the next request to the application. As a caveat, its CF9 only so far. hth, larry You can have a cfif looking for a url variable such as reset. Inside the CFIF you can recall the onapplicationstart method cfif structkeyexists(url, 'reset') cfset onapplicationstart() /cfif Personally, I'd go for a separate reset page.

RE: UBBCode img tag exploit
DP_ParseBBML) has this flaw, I just tested it. I looked at all the open source CF based forums I could find and they all had the same flaw. Many used the DP_ParseBBML module or some variation on it. Basically, I think if you prevent conversion of images with quotes, this goes away. That was my thinking as well. Or more precisely what I knew would stop the existing attack. What I did was modify the [IMG] conversion routine to disallow both standard and single quotes either base or encoded. I also disallowed semi-colon ; because that can be used to chain script commands. But I am sure this is not a proper sanitization of the input. src = replaceNoCase(src, #chr(34)#, , ALL); src = replaceNoCase(src, #chr(39)#, , ALL); src = replaceNoCase(src, %22, , ALL); src = replaceNoCase(src, ;, , ALL); src = replaceNoCase(src, %3B, , ALL); I still feel this is a stop-gap or just a response based approach and does not fully sanitize the input. I was hoping someone had existing code that did, because as I said it was a freebie. There is nothing like the panic of 13-16 year olds who get to see gay porn because a redirect was imbedded in the [IMG} tag of their favorite video game web forum. If anyone has better ideas to prevent this type of abuse please share them. Teenagers intent on doing mischief can be very clever and I am starting to slow down a bit.
