Re: DirectoryExists sometimes returning incorrect value
It may be more than a style preference. I'm not sure that No as a string value is always equivalent to a true/false boolean value. My suggestion was intended to help identify if that might actually be your issue. I've experienced intermittent issues with FileExists and trying to delete files in similar logic as yours.

Re: DirectoryExists sometimes returning incorrect value
Only other thing that immediately comes to mind is that it looks like that may be a network drive so perhaps something's going on on that network device or the network itself. If the directory should pretty much always exist, I'd run that code in your onApplicationStart() or find another way to only check it when the application first starts up. That way it's only running once. Fewer of these errors, and touching the filesystem less often is always a good thing for performance. -Cameron On Wed, Dec 7, 2011 at 12:12 PM, Shannon Rhodes shan...@rhodesedge.comwrote: Very unlikely, the directory definitely exists, since it's our main repository for documents...we aren't creating it all the time, it's just a best practice that we're checking for existence.

Re: DirectoryExists sometimes returning incorrect value
A path that starts with \\ is a UNC path. UNC paths can be funky as they are not necessarily real physical paths on your server but rather logical paths on a mapped device, like SAN. UNC paths should work, in general. Sometimes permissions will be problematic with UNC paths but that shouldn't cause it to be an intermittent failure. You might have your sysadmin look at what account CF is running as and then try logging into the server as that account and look at permissions and visibility on those UNC paths from the point of view of the CF service.

Re: ColdFusion Builder - Cut/Paste Delay Problem
You should try running from a command prompt or via modifying a shortcut: CFBuilder.exe -clean That will clear the caches and sometimes makes CF Builder usable again when it feels clunky. This is an Eclipse thing you can look up if you like. Aaron DeRenard On Tue, Dec 6, 2011 at 8:55 AM, Cameron Childress camer...@gmail.comwrote: Some weeks ago I started having a problem where using CTRL+X, CTRL+C, CTRL+V in ColdFusion builder seems to work only sporadically. Eventually I narrowed it down to a problem where Eclipse/CFB seems to need me to hold the keys for a second or two before the cut/paste takes effect. If I copy an item quickly it doesn't end up on my clipboard, but if I carefully hold the keys down a little longer than normal, it works. I suspect Eclipse or CFB is doing something as the text goes into the clipboard and that's causing the problem, but I haven't been able to figure out what.

Re: Get text value from xmlsearch()
But what happens if there is more than one node that matches your search? Searches expect to return one or more results, which is why it returns an array. Trying to turn what may be a complex result into a simple string with no logic seems like an unstable approach, unless I'm misunderstanding the question (which happens plenty). Instead, I'd write a UDF called FirstXMLNodeText or some some such that you pass an XPath value to along with an xml doc and then have it return the XmlText of the first array result returned. What you are doing with the array is correct, in my opinion. If it is too much typing and you are doing it a lot, build a function to do it.

Re: Get text value from xmlsearch()
Sure, some functions work on multiple nodes and they are awesome for all sorts of things. I just hesitate to use a function that will blow up if more than one node is returned when you can write a function that will always return the first node and therefore not blow up. I've just had two many times where I've written code that assumes that a query/search/whatever will only return one record and it works fine with all my test cases (because there is only supposed to be one record so that's what I put in my test case) and then lo and behold, someone inserts a second matching record and things start throwing errors because of that assumption I made.

Re: Get text value from xmlsearch()
I don't know man - if you are parsing xml, you are making some assumptions about the structure. The functions are there just for that reason. Sometimes you need the string value of a node.

ColdFusion 9 on One Computer and IIS 7 on Another Computer
I'm tackling a problem, but I am a little lost as to how and where to look for a solution; my hope is someone reading this post can point me in the correct direction. We currently have 32-bit ColdFusion 9 Standard Edition executing on a computer with IIS 7 (32 bit) and Windows Server 2008 (32 bit). On this same computer we also have a vendor CMS that does not play well with CF 9. All our attempts thus far--including 2 support calls to Adobe--do not permit us to use all CF 9's features given our current configuration. I'll call this physical machine our Primary Web Server. What we would like to do is completely separate our CF 9 server from the rest of our current Web configuration. That is, we want to place 32 bit ColdFusion 9 on a separate (64 bit) Windows Server 2008 computer running IIS 7.5. I'll call this physical machine our ColdFusion Server. All our CMS-generated Web-page content will appear on our Primary Web Server because that is where our CMS software resides. However, we would like to be able to point to ColdFusion applications on our ColdFusion Server from various Web pages on our Primary Web Server so that our ColdFusion Server can process those requests and spit the results onto our ColdFusion Server. That is, most of our ColdFusion-generated content will appear on our ColdFusion Server, but we still might require some ColdFusion-generated content to appear on our Primary Web Server integrated with our CMS-generated Web pages. Is this feasible, and if so, can it be accomplished with CF 9 Standard Edition, or is the Enterprise Edition required and why? Thank you. I appreciate your time. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:349023 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

However, we would like to be able to point to ColdFusion applications on our ColdFusion Server from various Web pages on our Primary Web Server so that our ColdFusion Server can process those requests and spit the results onto our ColdFusion Server. That is, most of our ColdFusion-generated content will appear on our ColdFusion Server, but we still might require some ColdFusion-generated content to appear on our Primary Web Server integrated with our CMS-generated Web pages. Is this feasible, and if so, can it be accomplished with CF 9 Standard Edition, or is the Enterprise Edition required and why? There are two ways you could do this: using distributed mode in CF, or using IIS as a reverse proxy for specific URL patterns that correspond to your web applications on the other server. The distributed mode functionality is somewhat limited and CF-specific, and may not work in your environment, so I'd suggest the reverse proxy approach. Google IIS reverse proxy for more information.

Re: ColdFusion 9 on One Computer and IIS 7 on Another Computer
What we would like to do is completely separate our CF 9 server from the rest of our current Web configuration. That is, we want to place 32 bit ColdFusion 9 on a separate (64 bit) Windows Server 2008 computer running IIS 7.5. I'll call this physical machine our ColdFusion Server. Out of curiosity, at that point why not use 64-bit CF on your 64-bit server? Fear of the unknown. We considered it but discarded the idea because we believe we are going to have sufficient hurdles to overcome just divorcing our CF server from the rest of our Web configuration. Once we get/if we get this proposed configuration functional, then we plan to erect a duplicated environment using 64 bit CF 9. All our CMS-generated Web-page content will appear on our Primary Web Server because that is where our CMS software resides. However, we would like to be able to point to ColdFusion applications on our ColdFusion Server from various Web pages on our Primary Web Server so that our ColdFusion Server can process those requests and spit the results onto our ColdFusion Server.

Forgive my obtuseness, but does this mean we can use the Standard Edition of CF 9?

Re: KCfinder with CKeditor and Coldfusion?
If you mean CKFinder and CKeditor, i find they cooperate beautifully and flawlessly with ColdFusion. I use them both together in my CMS systems. The trick is to note that when they install, they put application.cfm in a few places, which creates new applications and therefore all your application variables are unavailable. I found i had to disable the application.cfm that they installed and move the relevant code to my site's application.cfc . Then the only issue is setting the paths up properly. Do those two things and you'll be sailing! Happy to help more if you need it.

RE: KCfinder with CKeditor and Coldfusion?
Mike, If you google CKfinder Alternative you will find KCfinder. It supposedly works with FCKeditor, CKeditor and Tinymce. http://kcfinder.sunhater.com/ I was asking if anyone has gotten it to hook up with Coldfusion safely. I do not want to allow uploading just want to browse a single image Directory on a single website.

Re: KCfinder with CKeditor and Coldfusion?
In that case Terry, I'm not much help to you - I've not used KCFinder. Good luck with it though.I might check it out myself just to stay on top of things.
