file.encoding not being set
Hi There, I have a problem with the file.encoding in my jvm config, on one server(installed in UK) the locale etc is en_GB and the file.encoding is cp1252. On a machine we have in Moscow(originally installed in Russian locale) I have managed to change the java default locale to be en_GB but the locale is stubbornly staying at cp1251. We believe this may be having an effect on some of the number formatting etc but can't get it to change to even test that hypothesis. The setting I have tried in the jvm config is: -Dfile.encoding=cp1252 but it still says in the settings summary that it's using cp1252 Any help much appreciated.

Sim locale) I have managed to change the java default locale to be en_GB but the locale is stubbornly staying at cp1251. We believe this may be having an cp1251 is a windows codepage (encoding), not a locale. effect on some of the number formatting etc but can't get it to change to it shouldn't. locale is locale that's what should be controlling locale resources. encoding is another issue. which is giving you trouble? if locale you can try forcing the jvm to a locale via: -Duser.language=en -Duser.region=GB what you have already should do the trick for file encoding. I have done this already and it appeared in coldfusion correctly but the file.encoding still remains at 1251. you can peek at the server default locale via getLocale(). Default locale is en and still no joy i guess you should also check if the apps on the russian server setting the locale server wide? It does set the locale but to en even test that hypothesis. The setting I have tried in the jvm config is: -Dfile.encoding=cp1252 but it still says in the settings summary that it's using cp1252 ? you mean 1251? did you stop/restart the server? Apologies - it should have said that the settings summary is staying as cp1251.

Problem with cf executing stored procedures
All, I hope you can help us with a problem we are experiencing with execution of stored procedures from coldfusion pages. Stored procedures are running very slowly only when executed from cf pages, when they're run in the SQL 2000 query analyser they run in sometimes less than a second but when run from coldfusion they can take upwards of 60-80seconds seconds (which seems ridiculous). The timer in the debugging states that the sp has taken 10ms to run but when we put a time round it we get a time of the 60-80 seconds. I am wondering if there is something I have missed in the cf administrator or a hot fix I have missed or something wrong with my SQL setup which is causing this huge delay? CF version is 7.0.2.142559 SQL is Sql server 2000 All advice appreciated Cheers S ~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.

cfgrid on cfmx7
Hi There, I have come across something using cfgrid on a new install of cfmx7 which I currently evaluating. I have performed a clean install of cfmx7 on win2k server which resulted in a /cfide virtual directory being created in IIS, in this directory were all the directories normally associated (ie administrator etc). I firstly attempted to create a cfide directory and then create a virtual directory called classes pointing to the dir in c:inetpub but this resulted in no data being passed from the form to the action page. I then attempted to restrict access to every folder except classes using IP filtering but again no data was submitted from the form. I do not want my cfadministrator dir available from anywhere except localhost and would therefore see this as a bug - can anyone else verify/advise me on this?

Re: cf mx and oracle 8i
Steff,
You need to use to_date as this is used by Oracle to convert your date
from a string into the correct format. Have you tried the re-ordering
I suggested?
to_date('19/07/2004', 'dd/mm/')
Cheers

If I understand correctly you are able to view the raw cf code in your
browser - is that correct? If so, then coldfusion is not parsing the
code before handing it over tothe webserver. 1st things first - is
the page called something.cfm? If not, change it to a cfm extension
and then try again.If not - what web server are you using and on

Also, you forgot to close your cfquery tag up there - could that be a
simpler answer?

Re: server hang - cfexectask.cfm
Adam, Did you ever work out what was going on with this? Have been experiencing something similar. Cheers Simon I've been trying to hunt down a bug over the last week or so without much luck. The CF service is hanging at least once a week on our CF5/win2k server, and I believe it has to do with some code in one of our scheduled tasks, or the scheduled task system itself (not sure why cfexectask.cfm is the first unresponsive thread in our logs). Sometimes the CF service restarts itself, as seen in the log file below, and sometimes I have to restart the CF service manually.

cfschedules....
Hi there, We have a problem with cfschedule that is proving very annoying now. We created a task to be run on the 1st of every month called newsmail. We noticed that the task was being run at odd times so decided to do further investigation - the task was deleted and then yesterday morning we noticed that the newsmail had been run again. We checked the logs and found the following: Information,jrpp-599,07/30/03,11:25:37,,[NewsMail] Activating2 on Wed Jul 30 11:25:37 BST 2003 To run on :Tue Aug 26 07:00:00 BST 2003 Information,jrpp-599,07/30/03,11:26:57,,[NewsMail] Activating2 on Wed Jul 30 11:26:57 BST 2003 To run on :Tue Aug 26 07:00:00 BST 2003 This task was deleted and is now activating itself and setting it to run on 'Tue Aug 26 07:00:00 BST 2003'. Anyone had any similar fun with cfschedules or any sensible suggestions for getting round it?

Oracle CF5
Hi all, I have a bit of a problem I wouldn't mind some help with - We are using CF5 and Oracle 8i(8.1.7.0.0) (using Native drivers) and our application is running REALLY slowly. We have tuned the queries as much as we see possible and cached wherever possible although the neature of the beast makes caching a bit of a pipe-dream. I have been doing some debugging and found that the first query of the page is taking a very long time: getnews (Records=3, Time=2359ms) SQL = SELECT news_id, headline FROMnews WHERE show = 1 ORDER BY newsdate desc These are not big records and the query is very fast if I perform it through SQLPLUS or TOAD (Oracle gui devlopment tool) - the rest of the queries on the page are then performed in regular time. A tnsping of the box produces: Attempting to contact (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=*REMOVEDHOSTNAME*)(PORT=1521)) OK (40 msec) so the connection to the oracle instance itself seems to be a reasonable time. Does anyone have any ideas that could help us out as it is starting to cause problems Many Thanks Simon ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89 70.4

Re: who on here did the death clock?
At least radio 1 in the uk are honest about their list http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/playlist/alist.shtml Simon - Original Message - From: Jeffry Houser [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 2:21 PM Subject: RE: who on here did the death clock? These consultants are usually called Indies and our paid by the record labels, as much as $1000 per spin in major markets. The indie goes up to a radio station and says I'll give you X amount in promotional dollars if you'll sign an exclusive contract with me. Whenever you see a radio station offering some promotion, such as a free trip to England to see a band, usually an Indie donated it to the record station. Whenever a song is added tot he playlist, the indie bills a record company. The only thing I can say in addition to Scott's words is that my understanding is that DJs no longer have any say in playlists, it all goes through a programming manager and the programming manager gets everything from the Indie (consultant). It is a completely legal loop-hole to the payola laws. The consultant is independent of both the radio station and the record company. At 08:55 AM 2/6/2003 -0500, you wrote: Off topic I used to work for a radio station, and the way the DJ's normally get their playlists is through a consultant. The consultant makes a list of songs in 3 groups; high medium, or low rotation (they are termed differently consultant to consultant, but you get the idea). From there, the DJ only plays those songs. And if the consultant recommends playing a certain song, then the DJ does just that... These consultants go to conferences hang-out with the singers (the one consultant I met has hung out with Garth Brooks, Faith Hill, Shania Twain others, just to name a few, on multiple occasions), as well as the label execs. As far as plugging in the playlists, once the DJ gets the list from the consultant, they create a playlist, much like you do in Winamp, and it fires along, cross-fading commercials or other songs into it using multiple sound cards.

Re: The Myth of Bugs (Was Huge Ungainly thread of Doom)
Hi there, Just wanted to add my 2c to this issue - We recently installed a version of cfmx on a completely clean server - the server itself runs fine but the amount of trouble we have had trying to get our previous applications to run under CFMX is mind boggling. I am sure that CFMX is as good as you describe it - of course there will be issues, there always are with new/updated products BUT it is my belief that these products should have backwards compatability, ie sites that run under CF5 should also run under CFMX which is just doesn't seem to be the case at present, I know that unfortunately there will be a lot of redevelopment to make some of our more complex apps run under CFMX. Cheers Simon - Original Message - From: Jesse Noller [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 09, 2002 1:48 PM Subject: The Myth of Bugs (Was Huge Ungainly thread of Doom) All- Funny, I should stop sleeping. I wanted to take a moment to address something that is bothering me a great deal. Out of the huge thread yesterday, there came a lot of realizations that Macromedia is currently examining internally, misconceptions if you will about the way MM communicates things. Make no mistake, these issues are being discussed, as Sean and Vernon have both mentioned. However, one of the things that bothered me the most was the fact several people basically said: OH NOES! CFMX is poop! I won't buy/run it until all of these horrible bugs are fixed. This is what I refer too as the Myth of Bugs. I think something many people are forgetting is the scenario of a mailing list, or the forums. This is the scenario that discourses the fact that mainly the only people who will post to forums, and mailing lists in a typical day are those who have issues. Now, if I read cf-talk on $RAND day, I could safely assume that CFMX was crippled, a lame-duck to the market. Does this assumption make it true? No. It bothers me to hear people say that they will not even try CFMX out because there are so many show stopping issues. I would beg the argument that this is far, very far, from the truth. Those of you dropping CFMX or completely ignoring it because of the debates/issues raised on CF-Talk and the Forums would be better served if you actually downloaded and ran your application yourself, instead of taking the word of the mailing lists and forums. CFMX, as has been stated before, was the *most* tested version of ColdFusion *ever* put on market, I can't make this clear enough. I would imagine that some of the show stopper issues that are being raised have either been addresses, will be address, or are simply environmental. I would also state that the only people who raise the CFMX is Poop flag are those who have hit a bug, or other issue, which is show stopping to *them*. Remember, hundreds of people download CFMX daily (we have the numbers that show this) and run it without issue. *of COURSE* those people who run into any type of problem are immediately going to identify that problem as a show stopper and post to the mailing lists and the forums screaming as loud as they can to hopefully either find a solution or get Macromedia to help them for free. I can only stress that those of you reading these lists and the forums take everything you see with a grain of salt. Not everyone is running into these issues, everyone is not throwing CFMX out the window. We have *many* customers running CFMX in production, under load, daily, fine. If you install CFMX, and you run it, and you find an issue, I cannot stress enough that you contact support *immediately* to get that issue addressed ASAP. I will not admit that the ColdFusion team (myself included) shipped Poop. I will not admit to having wasted nearly two years of my life, I know this is *not* the case. I personally believe that the firestorms shown on this list, and the forums, are not the rule, but rather the exception to the rule. Please, try it out *for yourselves* before passing judgment. Sorry for ranting, it bothers me. A lot.

Re: CF doing strange things with dates
why not use cf_cal, not sure about cross browser compatability but it is
worth checking it out. you can then make the text box read only to ensure
that the user cannot edit the date that is inserted. Is available in the
developers gallery at macromedia.com

I'd already figured out the list items thing but thanks anyway. I had
considered using select boxes but there are quite a few date fields on
the
form and it would be a bit clunky.
It occurred to me that the TwoSelectsRelated tag could also be a good way
to
ensure correct dates
were being passed.

Tristram,
You're right about all the hashes/pound signs, but the 3 refers to the
item
in the list rather than the list delimiter i.e.. the year.
cfset realdate =
createdate(listgetat(userdate,3,-),listgetat(userdate,2,-),listgetat(use
rdate,1,-))
Should do the trick. Also you might want to look at the Locale
functions
to
ensure that CF handles your dates correctly.
Generally I tend to make sure that users are entering valid dates, by
giving
them 3 drop downs, one for day, month and year and checking that they
haven't entered anything daft like the 31 Feb and make sure that the
year
is
restricted to sensible values (i.e.. Credit Card expiry date has to be
in
the future)
Hope that helps
Regards
Stephen

It's probably not the most correct solution, but I use something

this
to vaildate European dates:
cftry
#createdate(#listgetat(#userdate#,3,-)#,#listgetat(#userdate#,2,-)#,
#listgetat(#userdate#,1,-)#)#
cfcatch blablabla...

Subject: CF doing strange things with dates
I want users to enter dates in forms using European format dates
(dd/mm/yy).
But CF is converting dates on or before the 12th of the month to the
US
format - {d '2002-12-04'} while dates after the 12th are being
formatted
as
European - {d '2002-04-13'}
This happens with both CreateODBCDate and CFQUERYPARAM.
Unless I'm missing something this makes Eurodate validation pretty
pointless...
Any suggestions?

Re: creating excel file in the REQUESTED format
Hi there, I have used HTML2Excel which I got from http://www.coldfusionnet.com - works very well and is easy to setup. This custom tag creates a dynamic Excel file from the generated content of a block of ColdFusion code. The generated content is first saved as an HTML file. Then it is opened in Excel and saved with the .xls extension.

Re: creating excel file in the REQUESTED format
Hello Again, Have just been told to have another look at th esite I mentioned in my email and it is no longer a custom tag download page - but have a look anyway, its quite amusing. Instead go to the devcenter and search for HTML2Excel or try this one http://devex.allaire.com/developer/gallery/info.cfm?ID=82442819-BA47-11D4-83 E400508B94F85Amethod=Full Cheers Simon - Original Message - From: Simon Whittaker [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 5:15 PM Subject: Re: creating excel file in the REQUESTED format Hi there, I have used HTML2Excel which I got from http://www.coldfusionnet.com - works very well and is easy to setup.

RE: I'm an idiot...
From the FAQ at FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq I've forgotten the ColdFusion Administrator password. What can I do? Run regedit and go to to HKLM\Software\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion\Server Change UseAdminPassword from 1 to 0. This will allow you to get into your ColdFusion Administrator without being asked for a password. Remember to turn on password protection from the Administrator once you get in and change the password.

RE: CodeCharge editor - anybody have experience with this?
I have used it briefly - It is a very good tool for creating quite complex projects as a beginner although anything out of the ordinary poses a problem. It is also very useful for converting projects (created in codecharge) into another language (ie PHP-CFML). In my recollection It is difficult, if at all possible, to access the code until after the project is finished and even then it is maybe less than perfect. All in all a good tool for the beginner but it ends up easier coding it yourself if you know cfml.

RE: CFMail - caveats?
hi there, The FAQ at http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq/#answer189 has details all about the limitations of CFMail. I have copied it below for you. The highest throughput you can get is 400 emails per minute, based on the fact that the CF server spools 100 every 15 seconds to the mail server. That's if you increase the spool setting from the default of 60 seconds from the Administrator. Also, there is a 65,535 message limit, based on the spool file naming convention. It appears that the files stored in the Spool directory are named using a hex naming convention of .cfmail to .cfmail. When we recently sent more mails than the spool directory can handle (65535) the page crashed.
