RE: sqlplus locks qhen i am trying to delete a record
I have no idea if control returns because it becomes unresponsive for a long time then i quit and close the sqlplus. But i guess you are right. Sometimes it becomes unresponsive and some time it works fine for the same query. I will try to index the tables. Maybe upgrade my oracle for oracle 9x could solve my problem? =]. tks a lot, Carlos. -Original Message- From: Ruggiero, Kevin D [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2003 6:10 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: sqlplus locks qhen i am trying to delete a record When you say it locks, do you mean it becomes unresponsive? I assume that's what you mean. My guess is you may need to create an index on the key you're deleting by (id), and you should also look at your triggers. Also, if you leave it for a while, does control eventually return? I've seem delete queries that take up to 45 minutes to run.

Re:ColdFusion and ArcIMS
We use ArcIMS for displaying data from our research department. http://appalachia.outdoors.org/mapping/ So far it works great for us. We also are having discussions about some much larger projects which would utilize the system. Ironically, we found that the most tricky part of it all is the initial install. Specifically getting the java servlet engine to play nicely. But it's just a matter of the right configuration (and which engine you decide to use - we are on CF5 not CFMX). And there are some great hint docs out there that will help with that (let me know if you have problems and I can dig them up). Once you have it installed, it's pretty easy to use. I would also agree with whomever posted about learning ArcXML. Some real power can be gained through the use of that which simply can't be gotten any other way. --Jeff ~| 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 Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

Re: OT-DTS
Actually it's not a MySQL problem per se -- I've seen similar things before from the ODBC driver. I'd first look at the schema for the MySQL db generated by DTS to see what column type the memo field was turned into -- if your memo fields generally only hold 255 characters or less, by all means turn them into varchar columns! If not, your life gets a little more complicated. If they really are long text fields, you should be using one of the TEXT types in MySQL for that column -- TEXT, MEDIUMTEXT, or LONGTEXT depending on the size. You *could* use the transform functions in DTS to generate a script to do the insert/update of the text data, but since this is a CF list, I'm guessing you know CF, so it might be easier (assuming this is a one-off conversion) to write a quick CF script that reads in the data and then inserts the memo data into MySQL using CFMX and it's JDBC MySQL driver which is more robust IMHO. While you're at it, take a look at how the boolean data fields converted -- if you're not careful, those fields can get mapped onto int or tinyint which are unsigned by default in MySQL -- so all the true values (-1) get truncated to 0 so everything becomes false in the column. Converting can be a little tricky since the data types are defined differently in Access and MySQL.

Recently I had to learn the ins and outs of CF and ArcIMS, it's been fun. I inherited a number of ArcIMS projects from a developer who quit and had to become competent in it very quickly. In our shop, we have ArcIMS set up with ArcSDE to generate maps dynamically based on layered data. Specificially, we are displaying regional maps containing business locations, congressional districts, state lines, roads, etc. Nothing too fancy. The biggest challenge has been learning ArcSDE administration - ArcSDE itself was fairly easy to set up, but the process of adding / taking data out of various mapservices was difficult to work with primarily because it uses command line tools for most of its data-loading functions. While we found we could get by with just using shapefiles, we really needed a spatially enabled database to handle the constantly changing data in our output files (and we needed ArcView to make the shapefiles, which meant updates to the mapping services were done by a human operator). Oh yeah, and we were not going to use the java browser for our Web sites even if it meant more work, nobody was really fond of it too much around here and XP users were having to download the JDK. But we were able to build out a fully automated system. It took about six weeks. One tutorial I found helpful was from the NOAA, I think this was the link: http://hypernews.ngdc.noaa.gov/HyperNews/get/geospatial.html?inline=-1nogif s NOAA is big into ArcIMS but they like to automate it with Perl. Nonetheless, the syntax for ArcIMS is the same.

Does this sound like something that Mapserver can handle? How about plotting based on physical address? Or is there another database somewhere that I could use to lookup lat/long points for a physical address?

OK...now I get: FIELDNAMES NEW.X,NEW.Y NEW.X 11 NEW.Y 11 FORM.fieldnames: NEW.X,NEW.Y How can I check just for new? If you're using CFDUMP to dump the Form scope, and something doesn't show up in there that you're expecting, well, it's not in there, so there's nothing else to check for. CFDUMP shows you everything in the Form scope, when you dump that scope. If new corresponds to an INPUT field with TYPE=IMAGE, you won't have a variable called new in the Form scope - you'll just have new.x and new.y. That's just the way image fields work in HTML.

RE: Securing XML files...
I've started to put some config and other data in XML files for our applications and have no idea how to secure the information, especially on a shared server. Has any of y'all come up with a good way to do this? There's nothing inherently different about securing XML files, as opposed to any other sort of files. They're just text files. If you're concerned about people being able to download them from your web site, don't put them in a public web directory. If you're concerned about people with filesystem access being able to read them, use filesystem permissions to prevent that if possible. If you're concerned about people with the ability to write programs in CF that could read your files, and who can store those programs on this shared server, your server administrator will need to use the security sandbox functionality provided in CFMX, or the Advanced Security functionality in CF 4-5.

Why does this never actually work. I am running a query on an ODBC datasource. The ODBC is connecting to an informix database. I don't want the query to take longer then 30 seconds. Not that coldfusion cares what I tell it the timeout value is. The main question is: Why does the timeout not work. The second question is Is there any way to wrap things with a timeout value as to say if what is inside of here take more then x time throw an error. Also is there a way to run a query in what would be like a seperate thread similar to doing a callback so that while the query is proccessing other things can run and then set a wait point or something?

Nested Query Loop Bug/Issue
I don't know if any of you have run into this before or if it's even been mentioned (couldn't find it at mm technotes either), but I've run into a situation where the values of an outer loop referred to in an inner loop are not what you expect. I was burned on this recently and remember vaguely it happening to me before. I've written some demonstration code to illustrate: http://www.simplemessageboard.com/loopbug.cfm The solution as shown in the code is to set a local variable BEFORE you begin the inner loop to hold the value of the outer loop you want to refer to within the inner loop. Anyone had this happen? Or is this expected behavior that I can't see? BTW, this is CF5, I don't know about MX.

I tried removing the Select one text and it still didn't catch the lack of selection!! It shouldn't. If it does it's broke. It should only recognize Select one if there was no value attribute at all. optionSelect one And cfselect isn't used that way. You pass a query to it. I believe the minimum is below: cfselect name=field name query=query name value=field to be passed as value display=field to display /cfselect You can also add required and message as with cfinput. That said, javascript validation has never worked on cfselect for me. I hate cfselect also.

RE: Nested Query Loop Bug/Issue
On each loop, whatever values you want to use in your inner loops need to be set to a local variable in the loop. In fact, been burned so many times now I just dont bother using the loop count and alwasy set the variables I need straight after my cfloop ie cfloop query=qSomething cfset loop1Col1 = qSomething.MultiplyBy20 cfset loop1Col2 = qSomething.MultiplyBy30 cfloop from=1 to=100 index=tIndex cfset output1 = loop1Col1 * tIndex cfset output2 = loop1Col2 * tIndex cfoutput#tIndex# - #output1# - #output2#/cfoutput /cfloop /cfloop Trying to access it as... cfset output1 = qSomething.MultiplyBy20 * tIndex Doesn't work (well, i didn't test the code but I hope you get my drift) There is a tech support somewhere about this on the MM site but I can't find much (no patience with it) any more and prefer looking elsewhere This could be described as a FEATURE of cold fusionhehehehe -Original Message- From: Tony Schreiber [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27 March 2003 17:04 To: CF-Talk Subject: Nested Query Loop Bug/Issue I don't know if any of you have run into this before or if it's even been mentioned (couldn't find it at mm technotes either), but I've run into a situation where the values of an outer loop referred to in an inner loop are not what you expect.

Hi all - I'm following Macromedia's instructions to set up a secure FTP connection with PuTTY and PLink in Dreamweaver MX. Anyway, in the Site Definition dialog, I set the SSH checkbox (Advanced Tab Remote Info Access: FTP Use SSH ...), and got a pop-up reminding me I had to download the aforementioned tools. I already had them in the appropriate directory, and checked the don't remind me again box... now I can't check the SSH box anymore. Is this just a bug, or is there a config file someplace deep in DWMX's Configuration folders that I can edit to let me check the SSH box?

cflogin and IIS Integrated Windows Security
I have a real simple login framework where I use the ntsecurity CFC I got from Macromedia to get a list of NT user groups of which a user is a member. By setting the directory security in IIS to integrated windows security and turning off Anonymous access, cgi.auth_user is populated with the domain and user id of the person who logged into the computer. I can then get their user groups. This all works well and fine. But I have a question about the password. The password parameter of the cfLogInUser tag is required. With integrated windows security, the cgi.Auth_Password seems to be an empty string if you output it. Is this going to be a problem, passing a possibly empty string to the password parameter of cfLogInUser? Is cgi.Auth_User not actually empty in this scenario? The code below works in testing, but I don't want it to become a problem under load with multiple users. Would it be better if I used some kind a random and/or unique string for a psedo password (maybe a UUID), since I don't know what the user typed to log into the computer? Ben Forta's ColdFusion MX: Web Application Construction Kit book says The password that the user logs in with. This is used internally by ColdFusion to track the user's login status. I would appreciate any insights on this from the guru's, Macromedia insiders, and other experts.

Douglas, We're working on resolving unlocked session variables, as well as other known causes (culled from various sources), and there aren't any Access DBs on our servers, all SQL2000 and Oracle.

RE: Does anyone know where this error is generated?
Ah...I see... CF has a great error trapping schtuff you can use, but it is useless for server timeout stuff in my experience. I know unlocked vars can cause wierd stuff, but I have found long running SQL to be a culprit quite often too. Have you guys looked at upping the request timeout setting? perhaps raise the limit simultaneous requests setting? Have restart after n unresponsive threads on and all...lower this. Have you tried setting the locking to single threaded sessions? Sounds like you are looking at this stuff already. Filter for 'Warning' and 'Information' severity in your application log via the CFADMIN tool. This will show you all the long running requests, if you set the logs to log them that is. It will also show when CF labels a thread unresponsive. just my thoughts Doug -Original Message- From: Calvin Ward [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 2:04 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Does anyone know where this error is generated?

I have a feeling I am going to be working on this one for a while... One of my more demanding clients is asking for a name matching solution on the cheap.

In addition, I need to be able to eliminate false positives wherever possible, in order to come up with the most consise list of matches. I really don't know where to start.

The message is from CF, not IIS. If you've stopped the CF service, if you try to request a .cfm page, this error will appear. This isn't exactly the case. The message is from the CF ISAPI extension, and to the best of my knowledge there's no way to change it in CF 5. In CFMX with Updater 3, however, I imagine that you may be able to change it if you're using Apache instead of IIS, since I believe that the source for the Apache module is provided with Updater 3. No such luck with IIS, though, I'll bet.

2. If there is no Session.Auth structure, it makes one.
3. The session scope for the application tag in my application.cfm is set to

5. I cannot figuire out how to redirect the user by using code on the

RE: cffile vs. cfinclude
For question 3, the biggest difference is whether you can have CF processing in your files. Usually for config stuff, CF is not used, so either will work in this case. CFFILE does not have the overhead associated with the CFSAVECONTENT tag (minimal, but still there), nor the CFMX compilation cycle. However, CFFILE doesn't get the benefit of cached templates like the CFINCLUDE would from the CF server. Both will benefit from filesystem-level caching/buffers. I suspect that CFFILE is faster than CFSAVECONTENT/CFINCLUDE because there is no processing overhead, but you'd have to do some tests to see if that's the case (loop over each one a few thousand times and use gettickcount() to see how long it takes). To get to the final point though, if it's a config file that's static, just read it once, and cache it somewhere (probably the parsed representation, rather than the raw data), and then the discussion is moot. cheers, barneyb --- Barney Boisvert, Senior Development Engineer AudienceCentral (formerly PIER System, Inc.)

All I've been able find out about performance, is that extensive use of cffile will create a performance problem because of the slow nature of disk I/O. What is extensive? 2. As far as disk access is concerned, what's the difference between CF reading a file using cffile, and inculding one using cfinclude? 3. Which of the following (if either) is better? cffile action=read file=test.xml variable=foo -OR- cfsavecontent variable=foo cfinclude template=test.xml /cfsavecontent -Brad ~| 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 Your ad could be here.

CFMX Updater 3 Available
Just a reminder that ColdFusion MX Updater 3 is now available for free download from the MM website. In my opinion, this is very close to a full dot-release of CFMX, and includes all cumulative major fixes in all product areas, and adds over 100 fixes, mostly focused around server reliability and stability. If you've shied away from CFMX until now because of reported stability problems, this is your release. We're committed to supporting ColdFusion and you, the ColdFusion customer, and we're working hard to ensure you get the best ColdFusion products we can produce.

Re: Does anyone know where this error is generated?
Dave, Thanks, but that's certainly not the good news I was looking for... Ah well. I wouldn't have thought that CF would respond at all if it was... well, not responding, quite an interesting deal there. - Original Message - From: Dave Watts [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 2:42 PM Subject: RE: Does anyone know where this error is generated? The message is from CF, not IIS. If you've stopped the CF service, if you try to request a .cfm page, this error will appear. This isn't exactly the case. The message is from the CF ISAPI extension, and to the best of my knowledge there's no way to change it in CF 5. In CFMX with Updater 3, however, I imagine that you may be able to change it if you're using Apache instead of IIS, since I believe that the source for the Apache module is provided with Updater 3. No such luck with IIS, though, I'll bet.

Re: OT: SQL Name Sounds Like Matching
Search google for SOUNDEX. I have a feeling I am going to be working on this one for a while... One of my more demanding clients is asking for a name matching solution on the cheap. What it needs to do is find where a name 'sounds like' another name, even if it is in another language (including Middle Eastern and Oriental names). In addition, I need to be able to eliminate false positives wherever possible, in order to come up with the most consise list of matches. I really don't know where to start. SQL Server and Oracle both offer soundex support, which I suppose could be used to generate some values for comparisons. But I am not sure how this would work when different languages come into play.

Re: SQL Name Sounds Like Matching
You say on the cheap. Well that means they get whatever's standard with no customisation, right? That's what soundex is. It may not be great, but it's certainly easy. Demanding clients with a tight budget really need to be dealt with firmly. They're business killers. The thing is that phonetic tokenisation algorithms are language based, i.e. soundex is designed to work for English. However, it would be by far the easiest to implement. There's a udf here: http://cflib.org/udf.cfm?ID=39 . There are a few variations on Soundex which could be investigated. There's also metaphone which is a bit more complex to implement. I would store the soundex code for each name in the database, with an index on this column, and then use the soundex code of the input data as the search key. In this way it will be just as quick as a regular search and you can do it whether or not the dbms supports Soundex. Combined with regular searching perhaps with typo support from verity, and that would have to be way more than a budget client could expect.

RE: SQL Name Sounds Like Matching
Matthew; Yeah, I'd like to give them the standard with no customization, period. Something tells me that's not going to happen. Youre message is very helpful. I hadn't thought about using Verity for this, but typo support would be great. My only issue with Soundex is with foreign names, and I can expect over a million of them from over 50 countries. Is there a way (meaning, has anyone already worked this out somehow) of compensating for international variations in pronounciation? Do you know of a cyrillic version of soundex? Something that does Greek, Russian, Hebrew?
