Tomcat Server

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

I am trying to set up an apache tomcat server to run CF7, CF8 and railo on the 
same machine. The idea came from last week's Online CF User group presentation.

I want to start and stop tomcat from eclipse for flexibility but am getting 
stuck with configuring it so that eclipse can see it. i have wated the 
presentation 3 times now but can't see what I am missing.

Anyone know what needs to be done so that the servers panel can see the Tomcat 
servers? There is probably some config file but I can find it.

Kevin

Re: SQL Help

[Kevin Roche]

Mark,

What DBMS are you using?

If its SQL Server, I don't think what you want to do is possible other than
how you have already done it. If you find another way to do it (with a join)
I would also be interested to see that.

Re: SQL Help

[Kevin Roche]

Mark,

You might be right but I never got that to work myself, in MSSQL.

An experiment you might try is to do that subquery separately in a different
CFQUERY then plug in the retrieved value. Occasionally I have found that
knid of trick is quicker.

 Hi Kevin,

 Yes it's MS SQL. Are you sure I can't do a left join and use IS NULL
 for the record that isn't allowed to match?

 If someone can tell me that the subquery is only run once then I'm not
 too perturbed and will leave it as is.

Re: Centering text written on an image

[Kevin Roche]

I think you have to figure out the offset, and start from there. So, you'll
need to determine the approximate width in pixels of your text string,


But the quetion is how? How can I find the width of the string?

I tried making a table of widths and that does not work really.

For example with the strings AWA and HWH with Arial font the A is wider than H 
the kerning means that HWH is wider.

Re: Centering text written on an image

[Kevin Roche]

Is there a way to add an extra step or two and make
an image of just your text, determine that width which
gives you your string width

I have no Idea how to do that. Can you tell me how to find the width of the 
text?

Re: Centering text written on an image

[Kevin Roche]

What I'm thinking is trying to avoid determining the
text width by creating an image of just the text and
measuring that.

Yes but how?

When you create an image in ColdFusion you have to give it a width and a height.

If you don't you get an error when you try and use it:

The image on which the operation was executed is undefined.
An image must have some non-zero positive dimensions for image operations to be 
applicable.

Re: Centering text written on an image

[Kevin Roche]

I am using ColdFusion to write some text on an image and I don't know in 
advance what the string is going to be so I can't guess where to start writing 
it.

Is there a way to say write this text around a particular point? 

I can check from the image how wide it is and work out where the centre is but 
I can't see how to either tell the ImageDrawText() function to center it or 
work out how wide the text will be once its written.

cfchart and pdf

[Kevin Roche]

I have just tried the example from the cf documentation to create a chart and 
embed it in a pdf. It does not work. The two typos in the documentation kind of 
indicate that it was never tested. 

Has anyone ever got flash charts in a pdf to work? The example just produces a 
blank page.

Here is the corrected code:

cfdocument format=pdf
!--- Flash chart embedded here. ---
cfchart format=flash xaxistitle=Department yaxistitle=Salary Average
cfchartseries type=bar query=DataTable itemcolumn=Dept_Name
valuecolumn=avgSal
cfchartdata item=Facilities value=35000

Re: ColdFusion slow database connection to SQL2005

[Kevin Roche]

I have checked and the settings are exactly the same on live, and test servers.

 Maintain connections across client requests. is checked
 Enable Unicode for data sources configured for non-Latin characters. is 
unchecked

All the other parameters under the advanced tab are the same. In fact they have 
not been changed from the defaults.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Re: ColdFusion slow database connection to SQL2005

[Kevin Roche]

Well I have just replaced the JDBC Drivers with the latest version 3.5. This 
has reduced the time taken by a huge amount. There is no mention in the docs of 
there being anything that would do that.

The same change on the test server made no difference.

ColdFusion slow database connection to SQL2005

[Kevin Roche]

The envionment is CF7.0.2 and SQL Server 2005.

It appears that queries are taking longer than usual to complete. Even simple 
queries can take over a second to execute. The test server has no problem 
executing the same query in 100ms.

I supect there is some configuration issue which means that the database 
connections are dropped after each query, but I am not sure what is going on.

The fact that it all works perfectly in test and the same code ran without any 
problem on CF5 and CF6.1 makes me sure there is somthing off with the 
configuration but I can't find it and the DBA isn't able to see any problem on 
the SQL Server either.

We are using SQL Authentication rather than NT Authentication.

Anyone out there seen somthing like this?

Slow Queries on CF7

[Kevin Roche]

I just upgraded one of my customers from CF5 to CF7.

The site works but the queries are very slow. I have a test machine here in the 
office and the queries take 30ms or so there but on the staging machine and 
production machine the responce to the same query is 600ms.

The only difference is that the test machine is using Win 2000 and the staging 
and production machines are using Win 2003. All are using MS SQLServer 2005. I 
have tried running the query concerned on the production Database with SQL 
Management Studio and that happens very quickly.

There is another symptom. That is that some queries fail with a message saying 
that there are too many connections to the SQL Server. It is as if the number 
of connections  is being limited by somthing. We are not using the Express 
version of SQL Server so I am at a loss. 

Its almost as if ColdFusion connection pooling is not working and its creating 
anew connection every time rather than reusing an exsiting datbase connection.

I am considering upgrading the DataDirect JDBC Drivers but that is just a stab 
in the dark. Anyone else know any reason why this would happen?

jaybird-full-2.0.2.jar

jaybird-pool-2.0.1.jar

libjaybird2.so

jaybird2.dll

jaybird-2.0.1.jar

jaybird-2.0.1.rar

 

There is a directory in the distribution called lib should that go in lib
too?

 

I tried that but just got the following error:

 

An exception occurred when executing method verifydatasource.
The cause of this exception was that:
coldfusion.sql.Executive$ConnectionVerificationFailedException:
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver available for TallGirls, please
check the driver setting in resources file, error:

The jdbc connection string is:

 

jdbc:firebirdsql://localhost:3050/D:/FirebirdData/TallGirls.fdb

 

Is that written correctly? This is on a windows XP machine.

I have been contemplating how to create one of these for a while.  I have
seen several MVC frameworks (MG,MII,CFoW) implement this before.  I mean
ideally you want to request a view that is based upon a master template that
has includes.  MG has a view collection and I think Fusebox adapted
soemthing similar, but really on a smaller scale, what do you need?

You really just need a way to include all of the portions of a master
template or view and then dynamically bring them together in the correct
order.

I have been deciphering the design pattern for this in my off time.

Hi,

Sorry for the Off Topic Post but I have a problem with a CF5 application
that uses Search Safe URLs. It has been working for several years without
any problem on two IIS 5.0 Servers on Win2K. Just copied it to a new IIS 5.0
Win2K server and the SES URLs don't always work.

It seems that if I have a URL which ends with a variable with a . in it it
fails.

Eg:  http://mydomain.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/for.today/1 works
But: http://mydomain.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/for.today fails

And: http://mydomain.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/Home.Home fails
But: http://mydomain.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/Home.Home/x works

There are no signs of a URL rewriter, installed and the Check that file
exsits checkbox is not ticked in the .cfm configuration.

The main difference is that the new server has .NET 2 installed. Could that
be a problem?

Anyone have any idea what might cause this?

The problem here is that you are creating a datetime, which contains the

You need to use a greater than comparison.

RE: Query of Queries - showing all entries from DB1

[Kevin Roche]

Roberto,

I would suggest a similar series of steps but the link gives a rather
complex example since they are trying to write a generic version that works
out foir itself waht the queries are. If you do it yourself it may be easier
to understand, and it may be possible to make it perform better.

I think its just a matter of:

1/ Do an Inner Join with QonQ

2/ Do a QonQ query on the left hand table that creates an exact similar
result set with null entries for any right table fields and omits any rows
from the first query.

3/ Do a QonQ which does a UNION of the the first two.

You may have problems with this if the results of 1 are large and can't be
converted quickly into a list.

Thanks for the input. I tried it, but CFMX did not like the syntax

I found a link to a fake left outer join script at

A left outer join sound just like what I need to do. Is there an

I have developed a web page that will post a multipart form with a file to
another server using a cfhttpparam type=File tag inside a cfhttp
tag. By the time the file has been uploaded to the other server it has an
additional CR-LF pair of characters. This is being done regardless of the
type of file or the mimeType attribute set for the cfhttpparam tag. If I
access a page on the second server outside of ColdFusion and post the same
file from my browser it makes it to the server without the additional
characters.

Has anyone else seen this behavior or have any idea how to get around it?

I am using ColdFusionMX server version 6.1.

RE: CF Arrays

[Kevin Roche]

Susan,

A two dimensional array in CF is actually an array of arrays.

Each of the arrays can end up being a differnt size.

I think that may be your problem.

Subject: CF Arrays


I was getting an error that appeared to be randomly occurring in one of my
sites: The element at position [n] cannot be found
Eventually I traced it to the fact that I had been using ArrayLen to set the
number of iterations for a loop when the array size had been expanding. The
code was therefore trying to reference empty array elements and causing the
error.

I knew that CF arrays are dynamic and that they can therefore sometimes
expand beyond the minimum number of elements needed. I thought I had been
careful about that though. I realise now that I need to know more about the
internal mechanics of CF arrays.. What tripped me up was that the array was
expanding because an IF statement referred to an outer dimensional array
element that was greater than the original array size. The same thing
happens with cfoutput and possibly other actions that you would expect to
generate an error, but not to change the bounds of the array. This does not
happen with one dimensional arrays, or the inner dimensions of  2D arrays.
With both single and multidimensional arrays an error is generated when you
first make an out of bounds reference to the array. That is what you want,
but why should expanded array elements then persist in memory in the case of
multidimensional arrays? Why should CF need to create extra elements for
this?

It was pretty easy to find a way to cope with the problem in my application,
but I wondered wether this behaviour is correct, and why it has to be this
way. In my case I had been using some multidimensional arrays in application
scope so there was a risk of expanded array sizes eventually affecting
performance. Does any one know what's going on under the hood here?

The code below shows illustrates the effect simply:
cfset application.a2DArray = ArrayNew(2)
cfset application.a2DArray[1][1] = data11
cfset application.a2DArray[1][2] = data12
cfset application.a2DArray[2][1] = data21
cfset application.a2DArray[2][2] = data22

!--- Dump array with 2 x 2 elements ---
cfdump label=application.a2DArray var=#application.a2DArray#

cftry
 cfif application.a2DArray[4][2] eq somethingYou would expect this to
generate an error but not to change the array size/cfif

RE: CRUD

[Kevin Roche]

Chad,

Do you want to do the model or the complete maintenance program?

The model is best covered by Reactor which you can get from
 http://www.doughughes.net/index.cfm?filter=categorycategoryId=30

If you want to create a complete maintenance system the best choice is the
Model-Glue framework which has scaffolding that generates a complete
maintenance program.

Let me first start off I am not an OO kind of guy.  I like things linear and

I have a few database tables that have hundreds of fields.

RE: ok here we go again

Doug,

In this situation you need to nest your cfoutput tags and use the group
parameter.

cfquery name=qCatsSubs datasource=xxx
SELECT categories.cat_id,
 categories.category,
 sub_categories.sub_id,
 sub_categories.sub_category
FROM  categories INNER JOIN sub_categories
ON cat_id = sub_cat_id
/cfquery

cfoutput query=qCatsSubs group=cat_id
h1#category#/h1

#sub_category#br
/cfoutput

I now have my tables populated thanks to your help.


[categories]

category

[sub_categories]
sub_id
sub_cat_id FK to cat_id

I am trying to work my query so that it will come out with the each category

RE: CRUD

[Kevin Roche]

Chad,

Reactor only creates CFCs that do the standard J2EE like CRUD model (DAO,
Gateway, Active Record), which you can call from your own display and edit
pages,

Model-Glue (version 2.0 of which incoporates reactor) will also create
display and edit pages for you.

RE: problem with insert

[Kevin Roche]

Doug,

The order of the entries  of fieldnames and values has to be the same.
So if you write:

INSERT INTO sub_categories (sub_category,cat_id )

The second value must be an integer.

RE: OOD/Design Patterns and ColdFusion.

[Kevin Roche]

The most useful thing I found on Design Patterns was an article on them in CFDJ 
about 2 years ago. After that all the books started to make sense. They had 
some code examples for DAO, Gateway, Beans and other objects that were all new 
to me at that time. seeing the code in CF was great.

Now lots of people are writing code like that.

Check out the new flex2 Beta3 to which you can add the CF and Actionscript 
wizards which create DAO and Bean objects from a database using RDS. Read that 
code as a starting point. Then read the books.

The objects create are simple, but it saves a lot of typing.

Re: setting up standard cf 7 server on Win XP / IIS 5.1

[Kevin Roche]

Paul,

I have installed CFMX 6.1 and 7 countless times. Sometimes the IIS 
configuration just doesn't work with the install program.

This seems to happen when  the Microsoft Techies have hardened the machine in 
some way.

The only solution in these cases is a manual install which takes a couple of 
hours!!

The instructions are on the macromedia site. One thing that is well hidden in 
the instructions is the make it not work switch which is on by deafult and 
has to be turned off. 

Look for the line attribute name=deactivatedtrue/attribute and change it 
to attribute name=deactivatedfalse/attribute in jrun.xml

See Tech Notes 19575, 18724. (sorry can't post links as my favs all screwed 
since the move to adobe last week)

RE: 3rd Party Cookie Reading [try to explain again]

[Kevin Roche]

Joe,

Can you put an image on the other site? (Site A)

If so what you do is this on site A

img src='http://www.siteB.com/mysite/my_cookie_setting.cfm/sitea.gif'

So the image displayed on site A is really coming from site B and setting a
site B cookie at that point. This is what adverisers do all the time.

Now when the user eventually vists site B you know they have been to site A.

The image itself is created by your CF so it sets the cookie too. If you
want you could also pass parameters and save them in your database. The
image can be a single pixel tranparent gif.

Note that in the URL some browsers are confused so you should add the
spurious extra bit on the end of tyhe URL and apply the Search Safe URL fix
that is available from the Macromedia web site so that it still works in CF6
or CF7.

Re: 3rd Party Cookie Reading

[Kevin Roche]

Joe,

Browsers are designed to stop this. The only way around it is to do somthing 
that many advertisers do and that is use a graphic or image to transfer the 
info.

Eg: On site A you add a link to to an image on site B. If you are using CF you 
can make the image a link to a CF template which returns the iumage and sets 
the cookie as a site B cookie.

Lets say SITE_A sets a cookie test with value thevalue. 
From SITE_B I would like to read the cookie 'test' and know that the value is

How can this be accomplished? Can it?

Creating Binary Files in CF

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

Does anyone know an easy way of creating a binary file in CF?

I want tio create a file that will be used as input for another program which 
has its own format that I can't change. 

The begining of the file contains a number of binary elements. It would be good 
if there was a custom tag that allowed me to add binary stuff to the stream (in 
hex perhaps) and then add stringsand write the combined stream out using 
cfwrite

Any ideas?

Yes,

I thought about that but could not get my head around how the create the Base64 
stuff in the first place as it must cause all the byte boundries to overlap. 
What I really want is base 16 (Hex) so I can create a binary string from a Hex 
number.

DevNet version of CF7

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

We have a machine that we use in development as a shared machine. It has
been set up with the devnet version of CFMX7. It works fine except that it
adds the line

META NAME=ColdFusionMXEdition CONTENT=ColdFusion DevNet Edition - Not
for Production Use.

at the start of every page.

This OK for HTML pages but now we are developing stuff in XHTML and XML and
that stops IE or wahetever is at the other end interpreting the page
correctly.

Is there a way to turn it off?

In CFMX 6.1 we added cfcontent reset=yes at the start of a page and that
worked but in 7 it doesnt.

Does this mean that I really have to pay for a full CFMX 7 Licence for my
development machine in order to make it do the things I need with web
services? I need multiple IP addresses so one can call another and so I can
keep the various sites I support separate.

Cold Fusion Page Execution Times

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

I am investigating the execution times on one of my customer's web site.

The site uses CF5 and has some complex pages. I was quite happy with the
home page which was excuting in an average of 110 ms.

However I was still getting some complaints from users about the time the
home page took to respond.

I built a simple tool with CF to measure the time from my desktop machine
using cfhttp.

This showed that the average time for the page to return was more like 1349
ms.

I saved a copy of the home page on the server and called it index.htm so
that it was delivered without any interaction from CF5. Now that page comes
back in 556 ms.

What is causing the big time difference?

If the page takes 110ms to build and IIS takes 556ms to send it I was
expecting a total of 666ms!

Any ideas?

Kevin Roche

Unfortunately, you're unlikely to find any useful numbers for this, since
performance differences are hugely dependent upon specific applications and
environments. You may find a vast improvement with your customer's
applications, or you may even find worse performance!

In any case, performance alone is probably not the best reason to upgrade.
There are many other, much better, reasons. The ability to write and use
CFCs is one - being able to structure your code in a more useful manner, and
being able to incorporate OO concepts within your code, may significantly
decrease the amount of time you spend maintaining that code.

Re: Dealing with empty fields in lists

[Kevin Roche]

Rick

use:

cfset myList = Replace(myList, ,)

Then the two empty items are replaced by items with a single space. Use trim to 
remove it later.

In the real world, the following list has 5 items:

apple,,banana,,orange

Of course, in Coldfusion, it only has 3.

What are you all doing to work around this kind of thing?

Re: CFC caching?

[Kevin Roche]

George,

I have a short piece of code at the start of my application that does two 
things.

1/ Checks for a url variable and if present sets all the cacheds CFCs to a 
space.

2/ Checks each cached CFC to see that it is defined and not a space. If so it 
reinitialises it and puts it in the application or server scope.

Hope that helps.

Isaac,
SQL Server 2K. I renamed the stored procedure name in the cffunction, not in 
the db. It is in the application scope, but how does one recreate it - 
simply set it to null? I did have to restart the CF server service to get 
rid of this finally. 

I guess I am really curious why there is no info on this anywhere. At least 
I can't find any. Seems to me that no one else has run into this while 
developing CFCs. I change my stored procs so many times, that using CFCs 
this way would have me restart the CF service every so often. I must be 
doing something fundamentally wrong somewhere.

A related question: would you instantiate an object that does auditing in 
the application scope or in the session scope? Initially I thought that 
since auditing is individual for every user, it should be in the session 
scope, but then some examples seem to suggest that instantiating it in the 
application scope is fine.

Thanks,
George

 What database? And how did you rename the procedure?
 
 I would say make sure you recreate the CFC object if it's stored in a
 shared scope (like say the application scope) but since the spelling
 was changed in the db and not in the CFC that shouldn't be relevant.
 
 Other than that, I'd say try restarting the CF server service.
 
  Umm, anybody?

RE: Expiring time of cookies for session management

[Kevin Roche]

Dave,

If you use:

cfapplication setclientcookies=Yes

The cookies themselves are permanent which has some consequences for most
applications.

I have in the past come back to an application and found myself still logged
in after being away for a week!

I now use:

cfapplication setclientcookies=No

And write the cookies myself.

cfif NOT (isDefined(cookie.cfid) AND cookie.cfid IS session.cfid)
cfcookie name=cfid value=#session.cfid# domain=#domain#
cfcookie name=cftoken value=#session.cftoken# 
domain=#domain#
/cfif

That way you can easily set the tiemout period to anything you like. (above
is browser session)

Kevin

 I did find some documentation (on livedocs) on how to make the cookies
automatically expire when the browser is closed, but I need to know what is
actually happening when those cookies are created by CF and I need some
documentation to back it up if at all possible.

CF 6.1: Problem with COM Object

[Kevin Roche]

I have a page that uses a COM object in CF5 and tried to run it with CF6.1 but 
got the following when using cfobject

An exception occurred when instantiating a Com object.  
The cause of this exception was that: java.lang.NullPointerException.  

The code being executed at that point is:

cfobject type=COM action=CREATE class=HPW.ProxServer2 name=Prox

I saw another thread here about this which said it may be somthing to do with 
having empty strings as parmaters but at this point I have't sent any 
parameters so ca't see why that is the case. 

Anyone got any ideas?

Kevin

Checking for JavaScript Enabled browser

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

I would like my CF to be aware that the user has Turned Off Javascript and
react accordingly.

I was thinking of using a JS function to set a cookie and having CF look for
it but I guess that won't work beacuse the first time a user visits the
cookie would not get sent to the server since the page that makes it has not
yet executed.

Does anyone out there have any clever ideas on this?

I guess the other problem is that they may have cookies turned off too.

Client side include

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

A new site I am building has a really big left hand menu. we are using some
DHTML code that builds a css based hierarchical menu. It looks good but
takes 'ages' to download on every page.

I was just thinking that it must be possible to download it once and include
it on the client side rather than at the server end to save on the download.
Anyone know how to do that?

I already tried:

object type=text/html data=include/menu.cfm
a href=include/menu.cfm
Menu
/a
/object

  .but the effect of doing it that way is that when the menu jumps
out the box gets bigger and  disrupts the page, instead of the menu
overlapping the page elements.

Does anyone know if this kind of thing can be done with writeContent() ?

I can't see how myself but have a hunch that there might be some way to do
that.

Target browsers are IE and FireFox.

RE: Client side include

[Kevin Roche]

Micha, Kerry,

Thanks for your replys.

I have no prblem with caching on the server. I would also like to cache the
menu on the client. The performace hit that really worries me is that of
downloading the menu with every page.

Kerry said:
I would avoid DHTML menus, and recursive
menus that render the whole menu in one go.

Unfortunarely that answer is not the solution as the client has this as a
must have item!

Apart from the download time CSS menu is working well so I don't need a
solution for that, just for caching it in the browser. Beacuse of the page
layout putting the menu and page in separate frames is not the solution.

I was wondering if anyone here had ever tried using a single frame with
javascript to write the output from two sources. That way I could possibly
cache the menu on the browser and merge it with the rest of the page.

Kevin

Kerry, Could you also explain why?

For Kevin, overlapping parts of the menu means you either must look at
how to handle such things using scrollbars using CSS or markup, or
adjust the menu to fit in the user interface.

For the performance hit of the cfinclude, try looking at caching the
output. Often there is no reason (besides personalized links, or
information) to render navigation on each request. Render it once, reuse
it many times afterwards. Caching in the application scope, of the
output of the menu, offers you the ability to display that cached output
to all visitors.

The .js file is cached on the client independently from the page, but there
is still a small delay while the js does its thing client side...

Can I look at the site to see how that performs?

Do you mind if I take a look at the code for it?

Another idea I'm sure you've thought of is to put the menu in its own frame.
That way it's not just cached, it doesn't even have to reload or render it.

It does cause problems for bookmarks and section 508 compliance, but
depending on the audience and use of the site, it may be worth considering.

Copying Images with cfhttp

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

Has anyone tried to get an image from a remote server with CFHTTP?

I have an appliaction that gets several files from a remote server using
CFHTTP.

The text files all appear to be fetched correctly byt the gif image gets
distorted in the process. Anyone out there got any idea why?

Here is the code


cfloop index=i from=1 to=#arrayLen(aFiles)#

cfif Right(aFiles[i],1) IS NOT /
cfoutputGetting #aFiles[i]#br /br //cfoutput

cfset filename=ListLast(aFiles[i],/\)
cfhttp url=#aFiles[i]# method=GET resolveurl=true
timeout=#httptimeout# throwonerror=Yes 
cffile action=WRITE file=#webroot##downloaddir##filename#
output=#CFHTTP.FileContent# addnewline=No

/cfif

/cfloop

Obviously this is a binary file and maybe cfhttp can't handle it. If so
anyone know of a way to do it?

Dave,

Thanks for that.

One small problem though. I need to copy this file to all the servers in the
cluster so really there are multiple cffile action=write after the get.
I guess once I have the file I need to read it with cffile
action=readBinary, there is no writeBinary so will cffile
action=write work?

RE: Copying Images with cfhttp

Hi,

cffile action=write works fine for Binary data.

Dave,

Thanks for that.

One small problem though. I need to copy this file to all the servers in the
cluster so really there are multiple cffile action=write after the get.
I guess once I have the file I need to read it with cffile
action=readBinary, there is no writeBinary so will cffile
action=write work?

 Obviously this is a binary file and maybe cfhttp can't handle it. If so
 anyone know of a way to do it?

Use the FILE attribute of CFHTTP to save binary files directly to your
filesystem.

RE: Virtual Directories for Websites...follow-up remarks

One thing that makes life interesting in this case is that the CF root and
the Web root will be different.

 So, using ports like that would mean there would be no root directory
 for the websites?  i.e., the port would act as the root for the site?
 I'm not sure I understand the actual directory structure for
 http://66.79.46.138:85/Index.cfm...

No, you would still need to have separate virtual hosts for each site, and
each virtual host would typically have its own root directory. Using
different ports just lets you use the same IP address or DNS name to connect
to different virtual servers.

It might. However, you might be better served by another approach. Why not
fetch all the files you need to one cluster member, then copy all those
files to the other cluster members, rather than copying each file as you
fetch it? The advantage of this approach is that you could easily do that
stuff outside of CF, using more efficient tools.

Built in web server

Hi,

I want to use the built in web server on my CFMX installation. Up until now

Where do I put the cf files?

Is there a way to set up server mappings?

Is there any documentation I can read about it anywhere?

RE: ColdFusion 5 RDS Visual Source Safe

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

Is the RDS service running?

I have a problem sometimes when I reboot that RDS does not start up as it
should. Forcing a start from the Services Control Panel fixes it.

I have no idea why, as it only happens very occasionally I have never taken
the time to investigate. I suspect that it is somthing to do with running
CF5 and CFMX on the same machine as it only happened after the CFMX install.

 We use this configuration regulary and it works fine for us so I

Sessions expire within a certain amount of time, which in general is 20
minutes. So clicking through by using a cached google page should not
trigger that session, since it's data has already expired.

I would advice you to try enabling single threaded sessions in the CF
Administrator. See if this helps solving your issues. If it does, you
know the problem is in locking the variables.

I'd back up Martin's theory of it being search engines indexing the site
with the CFID/CFTOKEN in the URL. If two people follow that link within
the session time out they will share the session.

I now only use CFID/CFTOKEN in the URL from behind a log in page, or
after someone has added an item to the basket etc ... all things a
search engine can't do.

It's always occurred to me that this is a massive security hole in the
way that ColdFusion manages sessions. Having said that, most application
servers use a similar method of maintaining session when cookies are not
enabled.

What is the URL that these people are coming in on ? Meaning, has
Google
cached one of your pages which has mypage.cfm?CFID=xxxcftoken=xxx in
the URL.

Hi,

In the past I have seen the following acuse this problem:

1/ users who sent each other links to pages with CFID and CFTOKEN in the
link.

2/ Search engine spiders site and picks up a CFID and CFTOKEN.

3/ Firewall caches the CFID and CFTOKEN (This was many years ago and I think
most are fixed now)

4/ Missing CFLOCK

Hope that helps

Hi,

1. It seems so from the insider information I saw.

2. Only for a limited period. I took the CF 5 Exam just before the CFMX

3. Don't know of one

4. Wait - unless you have a really good reason for wanting it now.

the certification be carried forward to Blackstone?
 3) If the answer to 2 is no, would there be some coupon/discount for the
Blackstone exam if you've taken the current CF exam just a short period
before the Blackstone exam is available?
 4) Bottom line: Would you recommend taking the CF certification exam now,
or wait until the Blackstone exam becomes available?

Verity Installation Problem

[kevin roche]

Hi,

I have recently installed CFMX 6.1 on a server that was locked down by the 
hosting company. The server already had CF5 running and I wanted to be able to 
run the two versions on the same box. The server was installe in JRun Mode and 
I have now set up a new virtual server that uses CFMX while the exsiting 
virtual server is running CF5

All seems Ok except the verity pages which says:

You must configure your application server to enable Verity. For instructions, 
see Installing and Using ColdFusion MX. 

I read the manual and it says that verity must have a couple of lines added to 
the JRun parameters. I checked and they are already there.

Anyone know what else I should be looking for ?

How do I do I make it a Windows Service? What if I don't want to do that?

Quoting Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

DevNet Version of CFMX adds rubbish to the start of my HTML.

[kevin roche]

Hi,

I am trying to build pages for the first time with XHTML and the validators in 
both Homesite and Dreamweaver seem only to do half the job. I am trying to 
point the W3C validator at my development machine which is running the 
multiuser devnet version of my site but the server adds an extra line at the 
front of the file and the result is invalid.

Anyone know how to get rid of the line?

META NAME=ColdFusionMXEdition CONTENT=ColdFusion DevNet Edition - Not for 
Production Use.

The MM site says use cfcontent to make the file text/xml but then it does not 
work in a browser and I need to have both.

Ok

So I found the solution to this problem but it does not make any sense to

I removed the registry entry which SQL Enterprise Manager has which pointed

Now everything works again.

cflocation fails

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

I have a strange situation which I can't track down.

I have an application that I have been using successfully for some time
running on CFMX 6.1

Recently the application has been giving problems because the cflocation
tags are not working sometimes.

The characteristics are that the browser shows the redirected URL at the
address bar and the content (Usually nothing or debug info) for the page
that issues the cflocation.

If you position the cursor in the address bar and hit enter you do then go
to the correct page.

Anyone seen this before?

Anyone know what could possibly cause it?

RE: cflocation fails

[Kevin Roche]

The problem has been reported on two different machines.

Although there is conditional logic the required location including URL
variables is definitely shown in the address box.

I am begining to think there is a response time problem on the server.

Subject: RE: cflocation fails

I wouldn't have thought so because the correct URL is in the browser
window,
if conditional logic was stopping the cflocation being executed then there
would be no way for the browser to have the URL.I would suspect the
browser is not handling the relocation properly, are you able to test it
from a different machine?

 is it possible that there is conditional logic around the
 relocation and the conditional test fails the first time that
 page loads?

  Hi,
 
  I have a strange situation which I can't track down.
 
  I have an application that I have been using successfully for some
  time running on CFMX 6.1
 
  Recently the application has been giving problems because the
  cflocation tags are not working sometimes.
 
  The characteristics are that the browser shows the
 redirected URL at
  the address bar and the content (Usually nothing or debug info) for
  the page that issues the cflocation.
 
  If you position the cursor in the address bar and hit enter you do
  then go to the correct page.

WSCONFIG problem

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

I just installed CF MX 6.1 and tried to run wsconfig.exe to set up IIS.
wsconfig cant find the Java Runtime Environment.

I have done this several times before without any problem.

The error message I get is:

Error: could not find JRE
Error: could not find Java 2 Runtime Environment.

I tried editing the wsconfig_jvm.config file did not help either.

Anyone out there know hoe to fix this?

Jochem,

I already tried that. And also tried putting it in the wsconfig_jvm.config
file. neither works. Just makes the program hand without giving an error
message.

Strange thing is that the CFMX uninstall won't work either.

Set the JRE_HOME environment variable:

set JRE_HOME=c:\cfusion\runtime\blahblah

Product Registration Installation

[Kevin Roche]

Hi,

I am in the process of re-installing software on 5 machines in our office.
For various reasons I want to start from scratch and make sure a the windows
software is up to date.

I have instaled everything I want on one machine and and have cloned a copy
of it all onto another using Drive Image. This includes a copy of Studio MX.
This works fine for most of the software, however there seems to be a clever
thing in Dreamweaver MX which stops two copies having the same serial
number. I do have licences for all these copies so I just want to update the
licence key on the cloned copy.

I am guessing the same might be true for Flash MX and ColdFusion MX.

I do not want to uninstall and re-install the whole thing on each machine as
it also means setting all the extensions and the HomeSite+ snippets.

Does anyone know where I can update the serial number on the cloned copy?

RE: What causes this error?

[Kevin Roche]

Jeff,

Where is the database yopu are using? Is it on the same machine?

The machine is trying to use NT type security here. That means the username
and password are those of a valid NT login. Is that what you intended?

The username and password can be supplied with the ODBC datasource settings.

I can't add a SQL datasource, and I'm doing everything *exactly* like I do
at work...it's just my home machine, and I'm trying to get a datasource up
and running. I've updated CFMX, the works...but for some reason, I get the
following error...anything look familiar here that's just a quick fix?

Connection verification failed for data source: JeffSQL
