RE: Generating reports in the background (update)
Let the invisible frame run the .cfm report and notify the visible frame when it's done. After being notified, the visible page doesn't load the reports page directly (this would run the report all over again). Instead, it load the variable into which the reports page has stored all its processed results. Thanks, but I think this is more-or-less what's already happening. Specify report criteria - Insert database record with all report parameters - Framed page (i) Your report is being created. Click here to return to the application. (ii) Invisible frame source calls report generation page via CFHTTP. Passes ReportID. CreateReport.cfm Creates report based on ReportID value passed as form field. The report is written as an HTML string to a .cfm file stored on the server. The filename is then written to the report record in the db. View Reports Does a db query and lists all reports that have a FileCreated flag set to true (so you can't view reports that have only just been specified but which haven't yet been created). Frame source (i) takes a while to load (more than the few seconds it would take if it was on its own). On it, there's one link with TARGET=_top in it, to remove the invisible frames. When you click on that link, it takes *forever* to load the next page. It seems to take as long to load that page as it takes to generate the report. Maybe that's just because I'm working on the development box. Trouble is, I can't upload it to the better-specced production box until I'm sure it's all working OK.

Re: locking within CFSCRIPT
Pete, you are right concerning cfscript but I can't see the limitations regarding UDFs. A UDF pre se is meant to be self-contained and therefore not relying on anything outside it's own scope.

You could read a shared scope variable into a local variable and get that into the UDF do what ever you do and than return a new value, write that value into your shared data.

With SQL Server, you could install the Desktop Edition on a Windows 98 machine, for example, and you'd get the core SQL Server engine (with some pretty severe size and functionality limitations) and the Enterprise Manager tools. MSDE, on the other hand, is simply the SQL Server engine (with its own, different, set of limitations), with no Enterprise Manager tools. If you develop applications with Visual Studio, you can redistribute MSDE with those applications, as an alternative to using Access. You can't redistribute SQL Server Desktop Edition.

Re: Generating reports in the background (update)
Aidan: Frankly I am not surprised you are having trouble Reports can put a serious load on the CF interpreter. Some questions to ask are: Are you using SQL Server and making full use of its power with views (and calculated columns?), stored procedures, triggers, etc.. Have you considered or have you already created a separate, (repeat separate) OLAP database strictly for reporting? It sounds like you may also have already done this, but have you considered dividing the reports into regularly viewed and must be on-the-fly? For regularly viewed the user could enter their preferred parameters, if any are required, into a database that will store them for use with scheduled reports that could be run in low traffic times and saved to a pick-up location, as, say, pdfs. There is nothing inherent to cflocating and cfhttp that should take forever. As a rule, CF does not handle complex reporting jobs well... it is designed to glue things together. make the work happen elsewhere (for best results)... not meaning to tell you something you already know... sorry if any of this sounds like bad news to you. regards, Patrick At 11:44 AM 31/10/2001 +, Aidan Whitehall wrote: I'm trying to trigger a ColdFusion template that generates a report in the background.

Goodbye Advanced Security, hello Session Params and eh.. hello list!
Hi, After weeks of struggling to get Advanced Security to run with Access in ColdFusion 5, i have given up. It works like a charm in CF 4.0.1, but not with the new version. Allaire, sorry, Macromedia support have suggested that Advanced Security in CF 5 simply doesn't work with Access. Time to create a customized session handling and security system to use our MySQL server instead. My plan is to use session variables to keep track of what users are allowed where, but I seem to recall a few concerns about relying on session variables for this from my last time on the list about a year ago. Is there something that I should keep in mind while doing this? Also, one of the problems I had in 4.0.1 was locking the shared scope variables. This seems to be much more efficient in CF 5, but I also found the option to run Single Threaded Sessions. This seems like a very easy solution. Would this affect performance a lot? Finally, an introduction could be in place. My name is Tage Widsell and I'm the webmaster at Propellerhead Software, a music software company in Stockholm, Sweden.

RE: Virus checking uploads
Hi Katherine, I don't know what kind of solution you are tending to be partial to, but I can speak about a product I have some experience with. It's a network based antivirus program from a company called PandaSoft. At my previous company we ran it on our internal network (which also protected all of our pop servers and checked all incoming email) and on all of our web and production servers. It will realtime monitor everything and as a file is uploaded or otherwise added to the system's drives, it will check it and remove any part of the file that is contaminated. It has very small overhead and has a browser based admin where all of your computers can be monitored and controlled realtime. -Original Message- From: Katherine Maltby [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2001 7:36 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Virus checking uploads Hi, We've got to develop a facility whereby users can upload material to a server via a cfm page, but we need to have some kind of virus checking software to check all uploads first.

This costs $500. With this, I could, if I wanted -- in addition to my usual CF-based development -- create distributable applications? Like let's say I have a client -- ok, I do have such a client -- who doesn't want to access the Internet for inventory updates, but wants to do it off line. Could I create a run-time application that I could install on his Win98 machine with nothing else to install (such as his own copy of Access or SQL Server)? You could do that, but not with SQL Server Developer Edition, which is simply a variation on the regular SQL Server product with a limited license for development use only. There's nothing in it that you could redistribute, in any case. If you want to build applications in, say, Visual Basic or VC++, that are local desktop-database interfaces, you can redistribute the Access runtime or MSDE with your applications - that's what they're for. You could develop your application against SQL Server Developer Edition, then distribute it with MSDE, for example.

RE: Generating reports in the background (update)
Are you using SQL Server and making full use of its power with [snip] sorry if any of this sounds like bad news to you. I'm using Access. Go on. Laugh. However, this only needs to tie us over for about 8 weeks. After that, we'll be moving our main database from Sybase's Adaptive Server Anywhere to Adaptive Server Enterprise and host the web application in-house (instead of the remote data transfer from ASA to Access as it's being done at the moment). And then I might end up using PowerBuilder HTML components instead of CF to generate reports for the Web. We've got an in-house app built in PB and we might be able to reuse code for the web pages from the application.

RE: OT: Managing DNS via a browser
Ok, I need to rephrase my question. Is there a tool that will allow me to manage my own DNS through a browser? I am running Win2k and I am using MS DNS. I don't have an answer for you about an existing web interface, but I suspect that if you're running Win2K DNS, you could build your own pretty easily using the appropriate COM interface. Most management functionality is exposed on Win2K through interfaces like ADSI. I suspect that Win2K DNS can be manipulated through ADSI or WMI, although I don't know the specifics. I'm not using Win2K DNS myself. There is also a utility within the Windows 2000 Support Tools called dnscmd.exe, which lets you manipulate your Win2K DNS. The Support Tools come on the Win2K CD.

Re: OT: Managing DNS via a browser
I've never seen one available, except for in one of those prefab ISP control panels that are out there. Never seen one in CF though. The zone file are just individual text files though. Go to C:\winnt\system32\dns and open up a couple of the .dns files. It's not to hard to figure out what is different between them. The thing is that the file has to be perfect, line breaks and all. Also necessary is a registry key which is the domain name, and one the keys is the name of the zone file. The other keys I cant remember off the top of my head because I overdid it last night :-/, but a little cffile and cfregistry action is all that is needed. After the zone file and the reg keys are written just cfexecute a little stop start dns server script and that's it. jon Clint Tredway wrote: Ok, I need to rephrase my question.

is where the unitCost is suppose to be and so forth. I cannot figure it
out. Do I need to loop over the items again on the update somehow to
stop this from happening, and if so could someone give an example. I am

Processing an HTTP Post (not form)
I have a java applet that posting some data to my cold fusion template. But I can't seem to access the data. It doesn't appear to be showing up in a FORM post, more of a raw-socket post as far as I can tell from the documentation. When I output the CGI structure seen by the webserver via the Cold Fusion Template, I get the list attached at the bottom. As you can see, 46K of some data is being detected but I don't know how to access this data. I also notice the request method is now set to POST instead of GET. Even though I loop from the form structure and the variable fieldnames it doesn't see any named variables. The java applet also has the ability to transmit a header before the post, is there a way I can fake a form header so this data does show up as a form field? HTTP_CONTENT_LENGTH - 46840 HTTP_CONTENT_TYPE - application/octet-stream These CGI variables show the 46K of data coming through... Any ideas?

If you're using CF 5, you can use the GetHTTPRequestData function to retrieve the raw HTTP request body, which is what you want. If not, there's no way of which I'm aware within CF to get the request body directly. If you can change what the Java applet sends, you might be able to simply add something like this at the very beginning of your HTTP request body: myvar= Then, everything else within the body will be in the variable Form.myvar within your CF action page. This assumes that the Java applet is posting with the standard POST MIME type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded; if it's formatting the data some other way, you might have problems.
