I've used ffmpeg for transcoding and appending videos to one another so if you're requirements are to transcode and append then ffmpeg will work nicely in my experience.

Your getting a different error, which is actually the same one I get on my production server. However, I don't have to modify any filenames or ANY code to get this error.

Re: Webservice error after CF 8.01 update
Grrr I've pretty much exhausted all my options now, this is driving me batty.. Brook, I think this is a bug in CF. I've made a small testcase on which I can reproduce the error all the time: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15688335/wstest.zip 1. Put the files in a wstest folder in your root. 2. create a file to test the web service : cfset ws = createObject(webservice, http://SERVER/wstest/ws.cfc?wsdl;).function1() 3. run the test file once. It should work properly. 4. rename wstest/result/function1Response.cfc (adding 1 at the end of the file works just fine) 5. run the test file. It should complain about function1Response.cfc not being found. 6. rename the cfc back to function1Response.cfc 7. run the test file. On my server (9.0.1) it alternates between 'java.lang.LinkageError : loader (instance of coldfusion/xml/rpc/SkeletonClassLoader): attempted duplicate class definition for name: wstest/result/Function1Response' and 'java.lang.ClassNotFoundException : wstest.result.Function1Response][java.lang.NullPointerException : null' The error is cleared temporarily by: - changing ws.cfc (adding spaces at the start for example); - using the clearTrustedCache function like in your code.

Actually neither of those would work because I'm not checking to see if the links are valid, I would like to return a list of all .cfm files that are used within a website. Maybe that's a better way of stating what I'm trying to do. Depends on how much time you want to dedicate to this you can: - find out what .cfm files are access from the logs; - find out what CF files are access by parsing the compiled CF classes after starting with an empty cfclasses directory (each compiled class contains the name of the CF source file - .cfc or .cfm) Creating a list of all the files and the removing the ones that are present in the above 2 lists will give you hopefully a much shorter third list of files that you can check manually to see if they are used. -- Mack ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:339915 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Memory Usage Question
Java byte code - that is what is going to be in memory. I expect a CFC etc would relate to a particular Java object however while I can dump what is in RAM have not learned how to understand the output and join a CFM to an object. I might be wrong but I don't think you can dump the permanent JVM space so you don't have access to the actual bytecode. I think you can use jmap -permstat to see what classes are loaded and that might give you an idea of what CFC are loaded, etc I wish I could see WHAT was taking up the ram, i.e a specific array, cfc instances, etc etc I think JVM logging or even Java Dev Kit programs like Jconsole and Jvisualvm will perhaps show which Java memory buffer (New/Tenure/Perm) is being consumed. CF monitor will probably help you see what CFM CFC etc is running. So once you know which buffer is being consumed perhaps you can allocate more to that until your able to short out which CFM etc is taking the RAM. Jvisualm is a good suggestion and gives you some of insight into the JVM. -- Mack ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:339806 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

When I click 'clear template cache', I can watch the threads stack up (via seefusion) and the server eventually hang. I am not using trusted cache. I do have the 'save class files' box checked. Anybody have ideas about why this would happen? I've seen this a lot on CF9 while developing web services with complex return types, I haven't seen it in production though. The fix was to clear the template and component cache (I think in CF8 you only have the button to clear the template cache). Does it happen even if you don't touch the CFC's that are part of the web service ? -- Mack ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:339721 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Find duplicated contacts (and typos)
Hi! I have a contact application where I need to display possible duplicates within the existing contacts. Possible duplicates means different contact entries that refer to the same person and might have the same or slightly different information (typos). What I currently do is search for different levels of duplication (it's a single union of 3 queries): - the first query searches for exact duplicates (exactly the same name, address, email, phone, etc); - second query searches for matches using the soundex algorithm on a restricted set of fields and is given a lower matching score; - third query applies soundex on more fields and is given an even lower matching score. Is there a better algorithm or way to do this fuzzy duplication search over multiple fields (firstname, lastname, address, etc) ? Pointers to wikipedia, books, etc appreciated. -- Mack ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:338354 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Sadly I don;t think soundex is going to help you as this finds words that
sound like other words (there, their, they're), which isn't going to pickup
typos.
In my testing soundex works reasonable well if I allow the 2 values to
be within a distance of each other (I'm not searching for exact
soundex matching but for the 2 numbers to be close to each other).
For example select soundex('Morris'), soundex('Moris'); returns the
same value M620 and that is ok for me.
I think comparing each contact field on an OR basis is a sufficient way to
find dupes, if none of those fields are the same then it is not really a
duplicate. Even if you have a typo in the same, the other fields are going
to have a match surely.
Unfortunately I get very little duplicates that way because of small
differences, especially in the address (East Drive vs East Dr.).

Jay, From the log file it seems for some reason CF cannot find the K2Encrypt class. On a standard install the class should be in #cf_home#/wwwroot/web-inf/lib/verity.jar. Do you have that file ?

Re: Access Data Source Problem with ColdFusion 9 on 64 bit Windows 7
Thanks. That solved the problem. I installed the 32-bit version of ColdFusion 8, then set Enable 32-bit Applications to True for the Application Pool in IIS. Bob Mack I'm having trouble creating Access Data Sources in ColdFusion 9 (same issue with CF8) on a 64 bit Windows 7 box. Two questions: 1) Does anyone know when a 64 bit version of ColdFusion 9 will be released that is compatible with Windows 7? The current version is compatible with Windows 7. 2) Does anyone have a workaround for this issue, apart from installing ColdFusion on the XP Virtual PC? If you want to use 32-bit stuff, use the 32-bit version of CF. It'll work fine on a 64-bit OS. There will be some issues if you want to hook it to IIS, but those issues are documented and pretty easy to fix. On the other hand, maybe this is the divine hand of Providence pushing you away from Access and towards, well, anything else.

Comcast SmartZone Incompatibility With CFMAILPARAM
When there's a space in the name of an attachment placed in a CFMAIL message by CFMAILPARAM Comcast SmartZone doesn't display the correct attachment name or type. SmartZone shows a random file name and an unknown type. The attachment can be downloaded from the web interface and is intact other than being misnamed. The attachment has the correct name when the message is popped from the Comcast mail server instead of being downloaded from the web interface. This issue affects attachments sent using CFMAIL but not attachments sent directly from my PC through Comcast, so I don't know whether the issue is at Adobe's end or Comcast's end. The workaround I'm using is to change spaces to underscores in the names of all attachments until either Comcast or Adobe fixes this incompatibility.

My boss's daughter has a boyfriend.. (can you smell the trouble already???). He is bent out of shape over the fact that I did not recommend that we hire him (I interviewed him and gave his skill sets an honest, thorough exam). He is good at A/V stuff, but his web experience/database experience is null. Anyway, back to the situation.. He has convinced the boss to pay him 2 grand to attempt to hack the system I built. He claims to be a super hacker, blah, blah, blah. I am not too confident that he can do it, but there is a small chance Multiple minds are better than one. I have gone over and over all the stuff I know, but I am more than likely missing some stuff. Anyone care to share their CF/NT/IIS security checklist or other advice? It's escalated into all-out war. He is going to stop at nothing to make me look bad, and I will stop at nothing to prevent him from succeeding. Thanks in advance. I will custom print 5 free T-shirts with your logo (in one color) on them if you give me advice that plugs up a hole that I didn't know about. Thanks in advance.

RE: Who Said netscape is dead as for People dressed in black we aring berets.....
One reason to not use Netscape is the mailto links will only pull up Netscape Messenger unless you find an Outlook Express dll so that Netscape will use OE instead of itself. I agree that the page needs to "work" in both browsers, it's just that a major annoyance with the email will prevent people from using Netscape. I personally use them both, because I still run across pages that only one or the other browser will display properly. I also use Mozilla, but I don't recall the messaging being any more robust than the 4.x versions. I will have to look at it again.

Well, that's no reason to not use Netscape as a browser since Outlook Express has nothing to do with IE. Plus, the new Mozilla Browser (Netscape 6.0 when it's released) will have multiple mail accounts, and from the alpha version, it looks like it'll handle them even better than OE. But the fact remains that you need to use both browsers if you're a good developer ;) Gotta make sure all your compatibilites are in place. hehe - Original Message - From: "lsellers" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 28, 2000 10:49 PM Subject: RE: Who Said netscape is dead as for People dressed in black wearing berets. Wonder how many people switched to IE/OE just for the fact they could handle multiple email accounts / newsgroups in the same sign - on. Netscape blew that one too! Duoooh. Shut down browser | Login as a new User just to check another email account, bad move NS. I would be one. That was _THE_ reason I switched. --min -- Archives: http://www.eGroups.com/list/cf-talk To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. -- Archives: http://www.eGroups.com/list/cf-talk To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. -- Archives: http://www.eGroups.com/list/cf-talk To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.
RE: Search Engine Friendly Variables (?)
There's an article about the entire process in the January 2000 issue of Cold Fusion Developers Journal. The code can be found at www.coldfusionjournal.com. Here is the link to the forum thread: http://forums1.allaire.com/DevConf/index.cfm?Message_ID=18401 For those of you that don't read it, I have found every issue of CFDJ to be very informative and well written.

Allen, I'm not sure about the internetsoccer link you have there, but the first link is from a Vignette StoryServer. I've actaully got a friend who just landed a job at sportal, and they're teaching him TCL, the lanague that StoryServer is based upon. Each set of numbers between the comma's mean something to Story Server, but I don't have a clue ;-). The major problem, as I understand it, with search engines not indexing ColdFusion based urls is that they don't visit and URLs that have a question mark in them. IE, Altavista wouldn't spider something like www.yoursite.com/order.com?a=1234b=5345867. Many moons ago, there was a long thread about how to create search engine friendly links on the Allaire Forums. The gist of it was to create a link using /'s rather than question marks, equal signs and ampersands. IE, to make that URL above search engine friendly, you link to www.yoursite.com/order.cfm/a/1234/b/5345867. A URL like this will still get executed by the CF server, you just have to create a list, using the / as a delimiter, and then set your vars using the list. Sorry I don't have any specific code examples. This topic was discusssed long ago and I never go around to implementing it into any of my sites. - Jay Hello, I've noticed some URL's set up in ways like these two. Could someone please explain them for me? The little understading I have it is so that the search engines will index the pages. Is that correct? How the commas function? As "="?
