RE: CFHTTP, SSL and Certificates (Obligatory Oh My)
Well that did the trick! I was reluctant to start updating the JVM given nothing had changed (including the third parties certificate) - however I did install a new JVM (1.4.2_09) on the machine *but didn't set ColdFusion to use it* then: - copied the keystore to this new JVM - added the certificate to the keystore - then copied the keystore back to ColdFusion and restarted ColdFusion That did the trick. I'm still bemused as to why it would suddenly stop working?

RE: Converting query to comma separated list
Mark, Not sure if I understand your question but maybe ValueList() May be of some help? Kola -Original Message- From: Mark Henderson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 September 2004 10:07 To: CF-Talk Subject: Converting query to comma separated list My first question, though I suspect this might not be the best approach . Is it possible to turn a query (cfdirectory in this case) into a comma separated list? The reason I ask is bcos currently I have a hardcoded list of folders in my action file, and I loop through and pull all the files from each. Like so... cfloop index = thisItem list = maps,districtPlans,mgmtPlans cfdirectory name=getAllFiles action=""> directory=#serverdir##thisItem# sort=name ASC cfquery dbtype=query name=getAllFiles_#thisItem# SELECT * FROM getAllFiles /cfquery /cfloop and in the display page something like... ol cfoutput query=getAllFiles_maps #replace(listFirst(name), _, , ALL)#br / /cfoutput /ol ol cfoutput query=getAllFiles_mgmtPlans #replace(listFirst(name), _, , ALL)#br / /cfoutput /ol etc etc This is all working fine. BUT, instead of hardcoding the list, I can do another directory call like so... cfdirectory name=getAllFolders action=""> directory=#serverdir# sort=name ASC which will give me all the folders that are in the above list (ie maps,districtPlans etc). So, how to get the query to a list so I don't need to hardcode? OR, is this the wrong approach and is it possible to use the getAllFolders query directly in some fashion?

Paul Micha summed up exactly what I was referring to when I meant decent. Most CMS systems approach this by creating a separate branch or mirror site as you mentioned. I would be interested to see how farcry handles this. Ideally I'd want to work with a language aware system such that I can change languages in the cms to see the alternative version of the content in a different language.

I did find an online book, that claims not to be a tutorial.It also claims not to be a book on Java, rather An introduction to programming, Using Java.It was reasonably up to date, July 2002, so let's have a look. At first, it seems a little basic, but I resisted the temptation to skim ahead. And I forced myself to try all the examples (learn both Eclipse and Java at the same time). Well, it is more like a class lecture than a book or tutorial.The instructor covers what needs to be covered, defers complexity until you are ready to absorb it, and moves right along.I found that the early chapters, while conceptually nothing new to an experienced programmer, did put me in a comfort zone with Java terminology and the Java way of doing things. Exactly what I was looking for! If you want to introduce a little Java into your life, have a look: http://www.faqs.org/docs/javap/index.html And, as I learn, I am resisting the temptation to go off and experiment (too much), but to stay focused and complete the course.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no books specifically about the latest version of JRun. In general, writing applications for JRun doesn't seem to be much different than writing them for any other J2EE application server, so if that's what you're looking for you might just pick up a book on that general topic.

Culprits are (typically) db access, ftp, ldap, pop, file access (cffile), cfhttp etc.All of these services must connect to a service or process outside the CF engine - cf awaits their response... sometimes indefinitely if its set up that way. That's why such tags often include a timeout value.Slow pages is a good place to start. Also look at the scheduled task folder and find out if there's a regular data import or web scraping application or some other ap put there for utility reasons.

I've got StudioMX for it, and I really want to learn how to use Dreamweaver on OS X. If I understand everything correctly, I can run Apache on my Mac by just using Web Sharing just like I can run IIS on my PC at work. If I want to run ColdFusion, I'm going to first need to install and configure JRun, then get the single user version of CF running on top of JRun. At that point, I'll be basically all set up just like I am at work...now if I've messed any of that up, correct me now. But, as you can tell, I'm a real newbie at digging into the Unix and Apache stuff, and definitely a newbie at setting up and configuring JRun...but I'm up to the task. So what I'm wondering is, where would one go to get information specific to learning about setting up and running that stuff under OS X? More specific, the whole Apache with JRun and CF solution running on OS X...are there any good websites dealing with just this kind of thing? Another alternative I'd like to mention is using BlueDragon as opposed to JRun/CFMX.I've run both on Macs and BlueDragon is far easier to install and deal with in general.You would need to check to make sure the very few incompatibilities between BlueDragon and CFMX wouldn't cause you any problems, but I've been using BlueDragon for development on my PowerBook for quite a while and haven't had any trouble. http://www.newatlanta.com/products/bluedragon/index.cfm _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

RE: request scope in cfc... really so bad?
Simon Generally its good for your cfc to be well encapsulated such that it doesn't know anything about its environment. This will make it more re-useable. Consider this - what happens if you need to call the cfc as a web service in future you've just lost that flexibility. If you have no plans to do this and you know that these variables will always be available in *every application* you write then its not a problem. But if you plan to re-use it I would pass the variables in, remember you can put them in a structure and pass them into an initialization function using attributesCollection (I think) although you loose the type checking of cfarguement.

If CFCs were EJBs, you would have external config info that you would look up using JNDI (or something, I'm not quite up to snuff on J2EE). Let's say I am careful and create well named variables like... request.cfcname.datasource = MyDatasource; request.cfcname.timeout = 300; etc, all in one file called cfcname.cfm that is included in application.cfm. Contract with the developer is you have to include cfcname.cfm in your application.cfm before calling the CFC. Am I such a bad guy? I guess worst case scenario is Macromedia decides not to support it one day, but I haven't heard anything about that. It's just such a pain if there's 10 variables in your app that are required by 10 different CFCs, passing them in as args to the constructor seems awkward. _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

RE: More on Laszlo
Does it provide support for file uploads ? Kola -Original Message- From: Dick Applebaum [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 March 2004 16:54 To: CF-Talk Subject: More on Laszlo I have been playing around with Laszlo and here is what I found. Laszlo is a Flash competitor and may also be a competitor to MM Flex nee Royale. I am not sure of the latter because I have not seen either Flex or Royale. Laszlo is used, like Flash, to create the client side of RIA apps. Laszlo code is written in XML and _javascript_ as opposed to the Movie/ActionScript construct of Flash. Laszlo code is compiled into a Flash swf file and imbedded into an HTML page just as Flash is. The Laszlo client app can make requests of a server-side app written in almost anything (including CFMX). Server requests are made with a standard URL with optional name/value pairs -- so far, I have not determined if data can be passed as form variables. Data returned to a Laszlo client consists of a single, valid XML packet. The XML packet is trivial to create in CFMX with standard output functions -- you don't need to do any XML parsing, etc -- just create XML tags around your data -- similar to placing HTML tags around your data. One tutorial takes you through creating a simple (and quite nice) data maintenance application -- The RIA client side is 72 lines of XML code. Thish creates a Flash movie that: -- initially displays all the records in the db in tabular form. -- if you click on a record, the space beneath the row of data expands to show a pre-filled update/delete form -- if you click on the heading row, the space below expands to show an Add Record form -- this is all done clientside. -- if you click on the add/up/delet buttons the data entry display disappears and the space for it contracts the data is passed to the server. Nothing special here, except it is intuitive, pleasant and written in 1 page of readable, maintainable code, I think I like it. It is much more intuitive (to me) than the Flash paradigm. They have a very nice sample shopping cart ala PetStore with a few added goodies -- you can drag and drop items (images)to the cart or wish list. you can expand or collapse the catalog display to show the cart, wishlist, and or checkout form. If these areas are collapsed, there is feedback when addinc items to the cart or wishlist -- the expansion bar briefly changes color Now the negatives: I found a bug in the client side of the data maintenance example (above) that I can't resolve -- their debugger isn;t much help. Performance appears to be a little sluggish The client-side code is 163K (gzipped) which seems high -- I have not used their optimizer I hate typing Laszlo Anyway, this might be a good alternative to Flash for those of us who are uneasy with Flash model.

RE: cfqueryparam, cfcatch 'n cftry
Stuart Hi, a couple of things. First of all if you are checking ifform fields have a value - either trim all your form fields before your validation or trim then when testing e.g. cfif trim(form.PropertyDataVillageTown) is or even cfif len(trim(form.PropertyDataVillageTown)) eq 0 Second thing is as in essence you're building up a list so you could do this for each validation clause to make your code a bit more readable cfif trim(form.PropertyDataVillageTown) is cfsetMessageAlert = listAppend(MessageAlert,font color='b23f3f'bVillage/Town/b/font must have a value. ,br) /cfif Using br as the delimiter . Also you may want to wrap the field names in a style sheet class span class='fieldHighlight'' Village/Town/span which would mean you wont have to change your code (only your stylesheet) when the designer decides to use #b23f3f as the background colour ;-) Then you need only check the length of the list once at the end to see if an error occurred cfif listLen(MessageAlert) cfset ErrorFound = yes /cfif Finally you would have to add additional validation before reaching the SQL statement if you want to ensure a field has a minimum length, this can be done on the database but I wouldn't do it that way! Hope that helps Kola -Original Message- From: Stuart Kidd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 March 2004 15:54 To: CF-Talk Subject: cfqueryparam, cfcatch 'n cftry Hi guys, In my cfcatch i've got a bunch of cfif's checking to make sure all parts of my form were correct. e.g.: cfif form.PropertyDataVillageTown is cfset MessageAlert = MessageAlert font color='b23f3f'bVillage/Town/b/font must have a value.brcfset ErrorFound = yes/cfif cfif form.PropertyDataCountyState is cfset MessageAlert = MessageAlert font color='b23f3f'bCounty/State/b/font must have a value.brcfset ErrorFound = yes/cfif cfif form.PropertyDataPostcodeZip is cfset MessageAlert = MessageAlert font color='b23f3f'bPostcode/Zip/b/font must have a value.brcfset ErrorFound = yes/cfif However, all these actions will only take place if there is an error triggered.

RE: JRun has closed connection
As others have pointed out, it could be a number of issues, I searched through a number of forums and found some people got this message when using COM objects, or when calling getPageContext.forward(). Also this can also appear if CF has just restarted due to reaching x amount of unresponsive threads. Finally I came across this Jrun technote http://www.macromedia.com/support/jrun/ts/documents/tn18176.htm Which appears to be a bit dated but reading up on the section Connection reset by peer highlighted that this can be caused when Jrun is waiting on a third party. Once it has waited a specified period (which can be changed in the xml config files) it returns a message to the peer (in this case the web server). In our case this message was caused by long running queries repeatedly being executed which resulted in the number of available simultaneous requests being used up. Jrun would give up waiting and return this error message. Finally this could also be related to the use of the odbc-bridge driver which should be disabled if not used. (which it shouldnt be in production anyway).

I don't believe that version numbers and editions have been discussed at all, actually.

The next planned version of ColdFusion is codenamed Blackstone, and version numbers, pricing, etc., have yet to be discussed at all. But, and this is my own opinion here, I doubt that there will be another maintenance release for CFMX any time soon. CFMX needed updates, which is why we released service packs and then v6.1, But 6.1 has proven to be reliable and solid and arguably one of the best ColdFusion's ever, and so a maintenance release is unlikely.

RE: CF Administration Best Practices on Production Servers

I was indeed taking a very simplistic view of the length of the string. And something I haven't given a lot of thought to was the depth of the folders.Very interesting. p.s. it would also help if you repeat that info in the title tag as well as in a h1 near the top of the page. By and large we're doing that, but we've played around with alternatives on non-critical pages.It *seems* -- and take this single-source anecdotal experience for what its worth -- that keywords in the filename alone are the single largest determining factor in elevating placement. Maybe a top-10 ranking on that alone. Add in the meta title and you're a solid candidate for #1.Make it the title of the page as well (we use a named style rather than tying a style to h1, but thats a *great* idea) and, so far, we're hitting #1 consistently. And as I'm sure you know this won't happen for hotly contested keywords. ColdFusion, for example.The trick is of course to pick something attainable, useful to the client and searched-upon.

RE: fusebox
I'd also agree there seems to be a lack of documentation of FB3 and 4. I would also agree that it seems that you are expected to buy the books to get any real info - the fusebox site (other than forums) is next to useless. There is actually more useful information on http://bombusbee.com/downloads.main.htm (check out the newbie guide) than there is on the fusebox site. That said, If you are set on learning FB3 and not FB4 (which I would recommend instead) then grab a copy of discovering fusebox 3 with coldfusion. Finally as there has been plenty discussion of FB recently and its pros and cons I would strongly advise anyone evaluating a framework to actually evaluate it by using it and *not* by soliciting opinions.

RE: Nesting CFTRANSACTION?
One possible solution would be to have a version of the delete method, which does not wrap the delete in cftransaction, e.g. deleteNoTransaction(). You could then call this version. I know its not ideal as it leads to code duplication and I'm not sure if transactions can even span cfc calls but its just an idea.

I'm in a position where a component can have a parent/child relationship with other components of the same type. When I delete a single component, no problem - the method starts a transaction, deletes the component information from the database, cleans up references to it in several join tables and updates a couple of administrative tables. When a component has Children I would like to delete them as well in the same transaction.The best way to do this, of course, is to loop through the children and call their delete() methods. However when I do this (as I am) from with the parents delete() method (making the call sorta recursive-like) I get the error we all know and love: Cannot nest CFTRANSACTIONS In short I don't want to really nest a transaction (that makes no real sense) I simply want a way to include all the work in a single transaction.Some way to determine if I'm in a transaction already and not try to start a new one. I'm trying to find some way to do this, perhaps by catching and using the nesting error itself - but nothing remotely elegant is presenting itself. Any solutions, ideas or workarounds?

RE: copying from one datasource to another

What I want to do is copy various tables on WeirdRemote into AccessLocal, basically to get a local copy of various tables on WeirdRemote, but not all records (so there has to be a query of some sort). Now I could do this by doing a query on WeirdRemote in CF and then looping over it with a load of Inserts into AccessLocal, but this would be rather complicated, and quite likely very slow. A better option seems to me to have a set of 'Make table queries' saved in my AccessLocal datasource and then I simply 'run' them from CF and the entire thing is then done in the background between WeirdRemote and AccessLocal, and in fact this can be done manually in Access, but because of WeirdRemote's licencing setup, only from the server. How to call the 'make table queries'?

HTH, Calvin - Original Message - From: Dave Watts [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 22, 2003 8:38 AM Subject: RE: dreamweaver stuff I'm trying to acclimatize to dreamweaver and I'm hoping somebody on the list can tell me if theres a way to do these 2 things: 1) display the entire file path in the dreamweaver title bar. Having only the file name and the last directory visible and not being able to get the full path from file properties, etc. makes it really difficult for me to keep track of what I'm doing, especially when I've got more than one site with the same directory and I need to know which site I'm editing. 2) eliminate the Update Files: Scan site for links to renamed files? dialog when I remove or rename files. First, let me preface this by saying I haven't worked much with DWMX 2004; I have worked quite a bit with DWMX 6.1, though. Unfortunately, I don't have definitive answers for either question, and suspect that for both of them, the answer is no, you can't do that. However, within the site-based work style encouraged by Dreamweaver, these behaviors make sense. When you create a site, one of the benefits of this is that you don't have to deal with file paths directly, when working with that site. Dreamweaver provides a site-relative path in the title bar, and in theory, you shouldn't have to worry too much about where on the filesystem the site files actually are - after all, you may have local and remote site information within your site definition, and those paths may well change between the two. It would be nice, though, if the Site panel updated to show the site containing the file you're actually working on. Also, when you move or rename a file through Dreamweaver, the Update files dialog box is one of the benefits - it automatically fixes any references to that file. If you do these operations through your filesystem browser instead of through Dreamweaver, you won't get a prompt within Dreamweaver, though. A lot of the Site stuff is best suited to a specific way of working, and if you work that way, it's very helpful. If you don't, though, it may be less helpful. I find it very useful for working with static HTML, and for managing Contribute users. For application development, I find it less helpful, although I still typically use it anyway. DWMX 2004 deemphasizes the reliance on setting up sites, as I understand it, so you may want to take a look at it.
