[cfaussie] Comsume https webservice
Hi Everyone, I have been trying to get this to work for the past few days and have finally decided I should ask for some help. I have a service that runs on a server using the https protocol. Sunsequently - when I try to use that service I get the folling error; Unable to read WSDL from URL: blah/blah.cfc?wsdl. Error: javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: peer not authenticated. All the items I read seemed to say that all I needed to do was to add the certificate to java keystore. Which have done using this; http://certman.riaforge.org/ I even tried using the command line - just in case there was some "odd" issue with the Certificate Manager extension to CF Admin. But still no dice. I have added the server cert and also tried by adding in the client cert too - but I still receive that error. Interestingly enough - I can successfully see the WSDL via the browser and https. If I place the code on a non-ssl connection - everything works as expected - so I know that my CFCs/code etc is working correctly. If anyone has any ideas - I would be most appreciative. Gavin. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group. To post to this group, send email to cfaus...@googlegroups.com.

[cfaussie] How good is the lock on Access databases?
I need to prevent people uploading an access database for a few minutes at a time, and I want to know if locking it while using it as a DSN will do that. And it has to happen without human intervention. Here's my scenario ... I have users uploading an access database from legacy systems, containing update information for my online database. Their systems gather the changes, put them into the access database, then automatically FTP that to a central server (Yes, i know but for now I'm stuck with that - rewriting their legacy systems is on the agenda but it's a big job with LOTS of ramifications so for now it's not an option!) So my CF9 system has to read that access database, and use the data contained within to update my SQLServer2005 data that serves the online database. So far so good. But there are updates that need passing back the other way too. So I have to gather updates for the remote systems from the online database, package them up into an access database and put them into the FTP Folder for the remote systems to download when they get round to it. Here's my issue ... how to make sure that while I'm processing the updates, and preparing the package for download no one can upload a new access database that will be over-written when I complete my processing. I need to lock the FTP Folder (ideally i'd like to lock out all FTP access while this is going on but since i am using shared hosting i dont have access to that) or in other ways prevent people uploading while i'm processing (shouldn't be more than a minute at a time) then write a new Access database for them to download, then open access to the FTP again. At the moment the only way i can think to achieve this is to programmatically make the database a dsn, then unlock it again when I'm done processing. That doesnt seem very elegant to me, but then this whole scenario isnt very elegant. But does anyone have any better ideas? -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion 9 Enterprise, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.

Re: [cfaussie] Re: Coding Standards
I have to disagree on that one Robin :) I personally think Adobe pushed cairngorm because it was the only available framework at the time, and it died because it's over complicated and doesn't really play to Flex's strengths. Frameworks like Mate etc that use an event bus and cater for use of modules etc are much more appropriate, and require less development effort. While I believe that the prejudice against cairngorm is correct :) I think some of it also came from the fact that a lot of people started looked at cairngorm and started building flex apps as if they were J2EE apps. I'm working on one now for example that was built incredibly inflexibly with enormous amounts of inheritance and J2EE style architecture when it's both completely unnecessary and actually detrimental to the ongoing development of the application. Of course it all comes down to personal preference, but I loathe cairngorm because it takes too much work to get anything happening, and lends itself to very bad architecture. These are of course my own heavily opinionated views ;) Toby On 04/08/2010, at 7:06 PM, Robin Hilliard wrote: On 04/08/2010, at 2:56 PM, Steve Onnis wrote: "that's like saying that the manufacturer of a rivet gun should determine airworthiness standards for aircraft assembled with their products."

Re: [cfaussie] CFObjective ANZ
and to back you up in what you say, Gavin, a classic case is formal study. When I was teaching, I tried to impress on the students, that although all the info was - in theory - out there ready to tap into, what was lost was structure and context. Sometimes it needed the expert to deliver it in a way for people to have the epiphany. and of course, there's the followup questions that are sometimes invaluable. I heard a story of a guest lecturer traveling around giving guest spots, who had a driver/PA on "tour" with him. After a while the driver said "what you do is easy! I reckon I can do that - I've heard the same lecture enough times". so they made a pact that the next stop they would swap roles and the driver would give the lecture. Sure enough the driver did a good job regurgitating the same script ... until someone in the audience asked a pointed question. The guy kept his cool, trying to hide he wasn't the guest lecturer. "what a silly question" he said. "So, silly that, in fact, I'm going to let my driver answer that question!" context, and expert advice, is everything.

So, Anyone here planning on going to any of the pre-conference workshops? I'm still trying to get the powers to be - to agree to send me to Charlie's CF Server admin workshop. While most of charlie's information is available on his website and on the mailing lists he loiters upon there's nothing quite like being able to ask specfic questions and get specific answers on the spot.

After all they are > the ones distributing the platform. Don't you think a coding standard for a language should be written by people who program in that language? Adobe's ColdFusion product team have historically been Java developers (well, since it switched from C++ to Java) and they don't write much CFML. That *may* have changed recently but last time I talked to the CF team (at CFUnited, last week) they still seemed to be hard core Java guys (and gals). The coding guidelines on livedocs were written by my Web Technology Group team. We programmed macromedia.com in CFMX 6.0 / 7.0 and that was our day job, every day. I'm disappointed Web Team didn't keep the document up to date after I left but I definitely feel that CFML coding standards should be written by CFML developers :) Should Adobe pick one set of guidelines out there and promote them? I don't think so. People didn't seem to like the idea of Macromedia 'picking' a single framework and promoting it (Mach-II... and, to be honest, we did *not* promote it but people still complained). Or has the mood changed and people really do want Adobe to tell them the "One True Way"? Back when I was developing C++ coding standards for companies for a living (yup, really, back in early 90's that was big business in Europe - about £10,000 a pop), there was a certain amount of commonality across all the standards I developed but most companies had different needs and wanted different rules enshrined in their standards. Even "performance" stuff depended on what they were doing with data (and which compiler they were using). And in my opinion, coding standards shouldn't be based on performance concerns since those change with every product version as well as being very dependent on the type of application and the type of data being manipulated. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://getrailo.com/ An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
