export excel charts - COM and CF

2000-11-16 Thread Rich Wild


Has anyone tried the following:

Connecting to an instance of excel thru com, inserting data, running a macro
on that inserted data which creates a chart based on that data, then exports
the chart as gif - then tidying up (close com connection, use cffile to move
gif to webroot and serve).

I'm not particulary worried about the first bit or the last bit, but the
firing off the macro and exporting is the bit that I'm seeking help about.
Nate Weiss had some handy tips about ensuring that the macro security is set
to the proper level for the NT account that CF runs under, which wasn't
something I had considered quite frankly...
Are there any other things I should be aware of? Opinions on the efficiency
of such a task to serve up a few dynamic gif reports? (I've looked at the
various graphing tags and none of them are suitable (read limited) , and
cfx_graphicsserver is too pricey an option)

Help appreciated.

I disagree with this statement. GOOD web design is not easy and the way in
which you dismiss HTML design as somehow inferior to application design
smacks of snobbery. It takes a great deal of knowledge about visual design,
technical HTML issues, browser foibles, and usability design. to produce a
good website.

In my experience most programmers are poor web designers and vice versa. It
is a rare find when you come across someone who can do both well.

Sure you can whack out a quick site with Frontpage but it will not be a
*good* site.

There are very many poor web sites out there.

RE: export excel charts - COM and CF

2000-11-16 Thread Rich Wild

Aha.

If anyone is interested, I wrote a macro to handle the data  chart creation
and gif export that runs whenever a certain cell's value changes.

Through CFOBJECT I'll see if I can insert data - hence triggering the macro,
exporting the gif. Then free the connection, move the file using cffile (or
set the macro to save the gif in the webroot) and serve the gif using
cfcontent or something similar. 

Just got to get it working now, but the theory is so far sound unless anyone
can spot any glaring holes. ;)

More locking

2000-11-16 Thread Tage Widsell

Hi,

Adding to the recent discussion on locking application and session 
variables.

I just got mail from a friendly Allaire employee that pointed out that a
stability issue I've been having with Advanced Security may very well be
related to the fact that I don't lock the session variables and this may
cause some troubles, especially since my site uses frames and the
simultaneous requests may cause writing and reading of the same variables.

Now, please enlighten me someone who knows more about this (I'm a web dude,
Jim - not a programmer). I never explicitly set any session variables since
Advanced Security is handling this for me. Does that mean that I have to set
the cflock around the cfauthenticate tag?

Also, I use a bunch of server variables that _never_ changes. I only use
them to keep track of server paths etc that I use in my apps. Do I need to
lock these variables too?

Thankful for help

Word mail merge and SQL Server 7

2000-11-16 Thread Aidan Whitehall

We're trying to do a mail merge in Word using records from a SQL Server 7
database on one network and a PC on a different network.

The network admin doesn't want to install any SQL Server components on the
PC with Word.

The solution we're trying at the moment is triggering a ColdFusion template
to query the database, generate a tab delimited file which then gets
e-mailed to the person doing the mail merge.

I thought if we could set up a DSN using the Microsoft Text Driver on his
PC, he could save the attachment to the same directory every time and get
Word to snag the records from it.

I thought it would be a doddle but I'm really struggling to set up the text
DSN.

Initially, trying to set it up displayed the error "Cannot insert attribute
values (null) into (null)".

Somehow, that stopped and the set-up seemed OK, with the schema.ini file
containing the details of the basic text file in the same directory:

==
CONTACTS.TXT
Contact Company Address1TownOrCity  Postcode
Aidan Whitehall The Net Profits 116 Ledburn SkelmersdaleWN8 6TX
Paul Halliday   NetshopperukInnovation HouseRainfordWA11
8LZ
==
SCHEMA.INI
[Contacts.txt]
ColNameHeader=True
Format=TabDelimited
MaxScanRows=1
CharacterSet=OEM
Col1=Contact Char Width 255
Col2=Company Char Width 255
Col3=Address1 Char Width 255
Col4=TownOrCity Char Width 255
Col5=Postcode Char Width 255
==

But, when you query the data source via ColdFusion, you see this error:

=
ODBC Error Code = S1000 (General error)

[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open
the file '(unknown)'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or
you need permission to view its data.

Hint: The cause of this error is usually either (1) You have used an
incorrect data source name, or (2) You have changed the location of your
data source either by moving it or renaming one of its parent directories.
After moving a data source make sure you update its attributes using the
ColdFusion Administrator.
=


Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this? And does anyone know
whether the CharacterSet should be OEM or ANSI?

And if this solution is *completely* the wrong way of doing it, please say
(skinning cats 'n all that).


Thanks muchly.

RE: Caching CFHTTP results

How about storing the cfhttp.filecontent variable in a database (which you

 Subject: Caching CFHTTP results



 I would like to use CFHTTP to pull an HTML page from one server to another
 (we own both servers ... one Unix, the other NT -- I'm pulling from the NT
 to the Unix -- too complicated to explain why.) and have the output cached
 so that we cut down on the number of actual requests passing from the Unix
 server to the NT.  We really need to cut the load to the NT.

 As far as I can tell, using cfcache at the top of my cfhttp
 page doesn't
 do the trick.

 What happens is that if the NT is overloaded with requests, this page
 outputs a "connection failure" error.  I thought if I could cache a good
 clean output then the page would then display the output on the Unix box
 even if the NT isn't responding.  This isn't happening.

 Any suggestions?

I need a specific tree control for use with CF...

2000-11-16 Thread Jablonski, Adam, MTC-DCLCx

Hello,  

What I do is trying to show a hierarchical structure of data that I
extract from database. My client want it to be done using a tree control (a
good choice anyway). Then after selecting an item it should be editable in
other frame ...etc, so it's kind of editor. My problem is that using CFTree
is not a proper solution for my needs because the database is quite big and
populating the tree all at once is a nonsense, especially that the editor is
an online tool. What I need is a tree control that behaves like for example
Windows Explorer tree control. I mean that I want only the first level of
objects to be displayed and the children to be loaded on the fly after
clicking the 'plus' sign and so on. Can anybody point me to such a control
or give me any kind of advice, please ?

Thanks in advance for helping me,
Adam

RE: export excel charts - COM and CF (vs MSChart?)

2000-11-16 Thread mark_wimer


Rich,

I'm interested in seeing the macro, especially the gif export part. I am
also wondering if people are using the MSChart object for this task,
without Excel. Wouldn't this be less overhead than opening excel? Or does
that not factor in if excel is already running on the server?

Aha.

If anyone is interested, I wrote a macro to handle the data  chart
creation
and gif export that runs whenever a certain cell's value changes.

Through CFOBJECT I'll see if I can insert data - hence triggering the
macro,
exporting the gif. Then free the connection, move the file using cffile (or
set the macro to save the gif in the webroot) and serve the gif using
cfcontent or something similar.

Just got to get it working now, but the theory is so far sound unless
anyone
can spot any glaring holes. ;)

 Subject: export excel charts - COM and CF



 Has anyone tried the following:

 Connecting to an instance of excel thru com, inserting data,
 running a macro
 on that inserted data which creates a chart based on that
 data, then exports
 the chart as gif - then tidying up (close com connection, use
 cffile to move
 gif to webroot and serve).

 I'm not particulary worried about the first bit or the last
 bit, but the
 firing off the macro and exporting is the bit that I'm
 seeking help about.
 Nate Weiss had some handy tips about ensuring that the macro
 security is set
 to the proper level for the NT account that CF runs under,
 which wasn't
 something I had considered quite frankly...
 Are there any other things I should be aware of? Opinions on
 the efficiency
 of such a task to serve up a few dynamic gif reports? (I've
 looked at the
 various graphing tags and none of them are suitable (read
 limited) , and
 cfx_graphicsserver is too pricey an option)

 Help appreciated.

 :)

Yes. In CF 4.5.x, you can use the CFEXECUTE tag. Here's an example, which
will add a user to the local NT account database:

cfexecute name="c:\winnt\system32\net.exe"
   arguments="user testme testme /add"
/cfexecute

If you're using an older version of CF, you'll need to install a CFX tag to
run command-line programs. You can get one from Lewis Sellers' site
(http://www.intrafoundation.com/).

RE: Certification Exam

2000-11-16 Thread Tristram Charnley

Have a look at the Brainbench CF exam. - http://www.brainbench.com 
The questions cover most advanced CF topics with the odd no-brainer
thrown in. I can't remember the pass mark but I passed easily after 
about 9 months CF experience. Because its unsupervised you can use 
reference material(like the real world) but your completion time 
is factored in.

I'd say its a good dress rehearsal for the CF exam - and its free!!!

  The test is easy enough, especially considering you only 
 need 60%.  Many
 of
  the questions are ambiguous so if you are not sure you can 
 get a decent
  amount wrong.
 
 Hopefully they'll change the questions soon.
 
 One thing to note is that they have a large bank of questions, so you
 shouldn't get the same exam if you sit it twice (some people 
 were at the
 Conference)
 
  If you've been coding for about a year or two and are
  familiar with the majority of CF tags you'll be fine.
 
 As an ammendment to Andrew's comment - be familiar with the 
 majority of the
 CF4.5 tags, knowing CF4 will get you by, but they do ask some 
 CF4.5 specific
 questions
 
  Look over the tags
  and functions, as well as error processing and how cf 
 handles copying from
  one variable to another (remember cf is pass-by-reference).
 
 Also brush up on how CFScript works - it's fairly important... oh, and
 knowing HTML, JavaScript and how a website basically works is 
 a damn good
 idea g
 
  Brush up on your queries
 
 A decent, but not amazing, knowledge of SQL is (pseudo) 
 required, so knowing
 only "SELECT * FROM TABLE" won't cut it...
 
  and last but not least... get a good night's sleep.
 
 Erm, I took it on 3 hours sleep over 40 hours... running on 
 coffee, but
 having sleep is a DAMN good idea g
 
 Overall, know as much about CF as you can - pretty bleeding 
 obvious, but
 there were some people at the Conf who took it after using CF 
 for only a
 couple of months (from those I chatted to and what I heard), 
 which is a very
 bad idea - you can't just know the manuals parrot fashion - 
 you MUST know
 the material!
 
 BTW, 60% isn't a difficult target to hit, it was annoying 
 when a question
 has multiple answers but the system only allows one!

 UD4 is awesome.  The Server Behavior builder will let you fill in your own
 code snippets with your own parameters so the next time you want to insert
 the code, a custom dialogue box will pop up and let you fill in all the
 parameters.  It also does generation of some basic code so that you can
get
 basic database-driven pages up there quickly.  UD1 was a little limiting
for
 CF, but UD4 is great.

hmmm - MSChart... to be honest and expose my utter lack of knowledge - I
didn't know you could - I can't seem to find an example of anyone doing it
through CFobject, but there's an asp version (which you could translate) at:


http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/MSChartExample.shtml

By the way, has anyone used Cold Fusion Graphlets (
http://forums.allaire.com/cfo/graphlets.htm )?? or are they the
icky-spare-5-minutes java applets that they look like? (examples weren't
working)

 Rich,
 
 I'm interested in seeing the macro, especially the gif export 
 part. I am
 also wondering if people are using the MSChart object for this task,
 without Excel. Wouldn't this be less overhead than opening 
 excel? Or does
 that not factor in if excel is already running on the server?

 Aha.
 
 If anyone is interested, I wrote a macro to handle the data  chart
 creation
 and gif export that runs whenever a certain cell's value changes.
 
 Through CFOBJECT I'll see if I can insert data - hence triggering the
 macro,
 exporting the gif. Then free the connection, move the file 
 using cffile (or
 set the macro to save the gif in the webroot) and serve the gif using
 cfcontent or something similar.
 
 Just got to get it working now, but the theory is so far sound unless
 anyone
 can spot any glaring holes. ;)

  Has anyone tried the following:
 
  Connecting to an instance of excel thru com, inserting data,
  running a macro

  the chart as gif - then tidying up (close com connection, use

  I'm not particulary worried about the first bit or the last

  Nate Weiss had some handy tips about ensuring that the macro

  Are there any other things I should be aware of? Opinions on

fusebox problem

2000-11-16 Thread sebastian palmigiani


I understand that each directory is to have its own index.cfm page which
acts as a switchboard for that directory.

What I don't understand is how to access them from the main home page and
have the main home page display the different actions from each sub
directory.

Example of what I have.

--

home page: index.cfm
cfparam name="action" value=""

a href="index.cfm?action=MemberUpdate"Member Update/a

cfswitch expression="#action#
cfcase value="MemberUpdate
cfinclude template="MemberUpdate/index.cfm
/cfcase
/cfswitch

--

MemberUpdate/index.cfm

cfswitch expression="#go#"
cfdefaultcase value="ChoosePhoto"
cfinclude template="dsp_ChoosePhotoForm.cfm"
/cfdefaultcase
cfcase value="UpdatePhoto"
cfinclude template="dsp_UpdatePhotoForm.cfm"
/cfcase
/cfswitch

How do I get the different actions of MemberUpdate/index.cfm to display in
the main home page?

Sebastian

RE: Certification Exam

2000-11-16 Thread Mark W. Breneman

Don't take it too lightly.  I took it three times and failed.  I always
thought of my self as a good (better than average) cf programmer.  Only
missed it by one question the last time.

I will not complain until after I pass it.  But, I knew that the result was
not going to be pretty when I guessed on five or six CFSCRIPT questions.  I
have never used cfscript before.

Note: The 61 test questions are pulled from about 100 to 150 questions
(guessing).

Study:
CFscript
Array (pay attention to the names of the array tags)
Anything related to Structures. (and looping over them)
Application tag
SQL insert and wildcard selects

Hope this helps

Hi,

I'm pretty new to this thread. Not knowing what's transpired, I'm just
wondering if anyone who's taken the certification exam could comment on the
following:

1. What sort of familiarity are you expected to have with each CF tag and
function? Are you supposed to know every attribute that you can use with
each tag?

2. Can anyone recommed any exam preparation material or books? I found it
really disappointing that compared to the more established exams (eg
Microsoft's or Novell's) there aren't a lot of published materials or sample
exams (not questions) you can refer to.

3. When you're taking the exam, can you return to previous questions or must
you answer each question there and then? (I guess I'd have to admit that I'm
not sure if its computerized or paper-based).

  The test is easy enough, especially considering you only need 60%.  Many
 of
  the questions are ambiguous so if you are not sure you can get a decent
  amount wrong.

 Hopefully they'll change the questions soon.

 One thing to note is that they have a large bank of questions, so you
 shouldn't get the same exam if you sit it twice (some people were at the
 Conference)

  If you've been coding for about a year or two and are
  familiar with the majority of CF tags you'll be fine.

 As an ammendment to Andrew's comment - be familiar with the majority of
the
 CF4.5 tags, knowing CF4 will get you by, but they do ask some CF4.5
specific
 questions

  Look over the tags
  and functions, as well as error processing and how cf handles copying
from
  one variable to another (remember cf is pass-by-reference).

 Also brush up on how CFScript works - it's fairly important... oh, and
 knowing HTML, JavaScript and how a website basically works is a damn good
 idea g

  Brush up on your queries

 A decent, but not amazing, knowledge of SQL is (pseudo) required, so
knowing
 only "SELECT * FROM TABLE" won't cut it...

  and last but not least... get a good night's sleep.

 Erm, I took it on 3 hours sleep over 40 hours... running on coffee, but
 having sleep is a DAMN good idea g

 Overall, know as much about CF as you can - pretty bleeding obvious, but
 there were some people at the Conf who took it after using CF for only a
 couple of months (from those I chatted to and what I heard), which is a
very
 bad idea - you can't just know the manuals parrot fashion - you MUST know
 the material!

 BTW, 60% isn't a difficult target to hit, it was annoying when a question
 has multiple answers but the system only allows one!

What are you using to build the application?

If you're using Director, I'm pretty sure you can accompplish something like

If you're searching files, you'll have to consider the different

 For reasons not worth going into, I'm trying to run a CF template via a
 SQL Server trigger doing an "exec master..xp_cmdshell batchfile.cmd"
 where the batchfile invokes cfml.exe to run the template.
 
 My problem is that I need to feed the template a query string with
 multiple parameters.
 
 I know that, theoretically, the way to do this is to set the
 QUERY_STRING environment variable to the query string I want (e.g., "SET
 QUERY_STRING=one=1two=2three=3") before running cfml.exe, but my
 problem is that the NT cmd interpreter is picking up the ampersand as a
 special character and terminating the SET at the first ampersand.
 
 Is there some special "escape" syntax that'll let me include an
 ampersand as part of the value for a SET statement?  There are no clues
 in HELP SET.  I've tried backslashes, double and single quotes, and
 other things, but I can't seem to find the magic combination, and I know
 there must be a way to do this.
 
 Anybody?

This is SQL server 7, Cold fusion 4.5.1 - on separate boxes..
There has been no change to the cold fusion templates on this website in 
about 6 months. These errors started popping up very infrequently a few 
weeks ago.. Maybe once every few days.  When the first error happens, I 
have to reboot the cold fusion server and it works again. The second one 
clears itself quickly and works again.
 The only change I see is a increase in the database size, as well as 
an increase in the number of visitors to the site.
When this happens, other databases still work.
That query takes only about 200ms.  How could it time out?  Any ideas?
I do not have any other programs opening it - the servers are co-located, 
and do not even have MS access installed.
I do use MTS packages to copy the database  to my home computer a few times 
a day.. would that exclusively lock the table and cause problems?

Re: Dynamic image display question?

2000-11-16 Thread Larry C. Lyons

Rick,

Here's what I do. 

First, I'm assuming here that the directory for your images is a
subdirectory of the current template directory. Given that I typically
set up a ColdFusion variable for the image directory as:

CFSET ImageDir= GetDirectoryFromPath(ExpandPath("*.*"))  "images\"

This allows me just to have the name of the image file in the database
without path information, as that may change at any point.

Then I run a query to get the image stuff:

CFQUERY NAME="ImageDB" DATASOURCE="#DSN#" DBTYPE="ODBC"
BLOCKFACTOR="100" CACHEDWITHIN="#CreateTimeSpan(0,0,30,0)#"
  SELECT ImageName,Caption,image_ID,Short_Desc
  FROM   Images
  ORDER BY   image_ID
/CFQUERY

Then I make sure that the image really exists in the specified
directory, and if it does, display the image, otherwise display a
default image:

cfset Image_Name = ImageDir  ImageDB.ImageName

CFIF FileExists(Image_Name)
 cfoutputimg src="#Image_Name#"/cfoutput
CFELSE
 img src="images/default.gif"
/CFELSE

hth,

larry

If the data does not change often, you can have the "tree" file re-built

This would ony be usefull if the data canges daily or so, not every ten

With native CF capability you'll have to use CFLDAP to query NDS' LDAP
interface directly. This doesn't allow you to use NDS as your AS
repository
but, it's better than nothing. You could try hand building the schema
in
NDS. Another option is to use native OS authentication/authorization
but,
have that redirected to NDS. Like using Client32 for NT.

Don't take it too lightly.  I took it three times and failed.  I always
thought of my self as a good (better than average) cf programmer.  Only
missed it by one question the last time.

I will not complain until after I pass it.  But, I knew that the result was
not going to be pretty when I guessed on five or six CFSCRIPT questions.  I
have never used cfscript before.

Note: The 61 test questions are pulled from about 100 to 150 questions
(guessing).

Study:
CFscript
Array (pay attention to the names of the array tags)
Anything related to Structures. (and looping over them)
Application tag
SQL insert and wildcard selects

Hi,

I'm pretty new to this thread. Not knowing what's transpired, I'm just
wondering if anyone who's taken the certification exam could comment on the
following:

1. What sort of familiarity are you expected to have with each CF tag and
function? Are you supposed to know every attribute that you can use with
each tag?

2. Can anyone recommed any exam preparation material or books? I found it
really disappointing that compared to the more established exams (eg
Microsoft's or Novell's) there aren't a lot of published materials or sample
exams (not questions) you can refer to.

3. When you're taking the exam, can you return to previous questions or must
you answer each question there and then? (I guess I'd have to admit that I'm
not sure if its computerized or paper-based).

  The test is easy enough, especially considering you only need 60%.  Many
 of
  the questions are ambiguous so if you are not sure you can get a decent

 Hopefully they'll change the questions soon.

 One thing to note is that they have a large bank of questions, so you
 shouldn't get the same exam if you sit it twice (some people were at the
 Conference)

  If you've been coding for about a year or two and are
  familiar with the majority of CF tags you'll be fine.

 As an ammendment to Andrew's comment - be familiar with the majority of
the
 CF4.5 tags, knowing CF4 will get you by, but they do ask some CF4.5
specific
 questions

  Look over the tags
  and functions, as well as error processing and how cf handles copying
from
  one variable to another (remember cf is pass-by-reference).

 Also brush up on how CFScript works - it's fairly important... oh, and
 knowing HTML, JavaScript and how a website basically works is a damn good
 idea g

  Brush up on your queries

 A decent, but not amazing, knowledge of SQL is (pseudo) required, so
knowing
 only "SELECT * FROM TABLE" won't cut it...

  and last but not least... get a good night's sleep.

 Erm, I took it on 3 hours sleep over 40 hours... running on coffee, but
 having sleep is a DAMN good idea g

 Overall, know as much about CF as you can - pretty bleeding obvious, but
 there were some people at the Conf who took it after using CF for only a
 couple of months (from those I chatted to and what I heard), which is a
very
 bad idea - you can't just know the manuals parrot fashion - you MUST know
 the material!

 BTW, 60% isn't a difficult target to hit, it was annoying when a question
 has multiple answers but the system only allows one!

Re: How To Determine Logged In Users

2000-11-16 Thread Jake Hileman - Patmos

Actually, the way I do it is set a cookie.  Then at the top of all the pages
that are "login" protected, I check for the cookie.. if it exists I know
they are logged in since the cookie can't be set unless they are
successfully login.

  UD4 is awesome.  The Server Behavior builder will let you fill in your
 own
  code snippets with your own parameters so the next time you want to
 insert
  the code, a custom dialogue box will pop up and let you fill in all the
  parameters.  It also does generation of some basic code so that you can
 get
  basic database-driven pages up there quickly.  UD1 was a little limiting
 for
  CF, but UD4 is great.

RE: I need a specific tree control for use with CF...

2000-11-16 Thread Hayes, David

Write the query on your page to include on the appropriate records.

For example, the default query could return a subset of records.  The tree
control can show those items as clickable links, calling the same page and
passing a url parameter which is then used in your query to get some
next-level subset of records.

Subject: I need a specific tree control for use with CF...


Hello,  

What I do is trying to show a hierarchical structure of data that I
extract from database. My client want it to be done using a tree control (a
good choice anyway). Then after selecting an item it should be editable in
other frame ...etc, so it's kind of editor. My problem is that using CFTree
is not a proper solution for my needs because the database is quite big and
populating the tree all at once is a nonsense, especially that the editor is
an online tool. What I need is a tree control that behaves like for example
Windows Explorer tree control. I mean that I want only the first level of
objects to be displayed and the children to be loaded on the fly after
clicking the 'plus' sign and so on. Can anybody point me to such a control
or give me any kind of advice, please ?

Thanks in advance for helping me,
Adam

CFFTP - CFLOOP Prob.

2000-11-16 Thread Richard Ramos

I can't see what I am doing wrong.  I have the index page where the user
types in the name of the directory, chooses the file to upload finally
selects which servers to send it to via checkbox.  Since there is a
possibility of multiple servers, I use CFLOOP to loop throught the
delimitered list.  This works fine and all.  But if I select any server
minus the first one, I get an error with CFFTP.  I know that the CFFTP code
works and that the list is understandable.  Any clues here?

Thanks in advance.

Sal:

Sure there is. try this for instance:

cfset numvar = "2"
cfset "Edname#numvar#" = "test"

cfoutputEdname2 is #Edname2#/cfoutput

How's that?

Subject: append variable to a variable??


Is there anyway to do this?

I have six variables in my database they are called:

EdName1, EdName2, etc.

It would be awesome if I could set a variable that could dynamically change
the number of each variable for me so I don't have to hard code the
variable.

For example (I know this doesn't work but it will get my point across:

cfset numvar = "2"

#EdName#numvar## = EdName2

Thanks for your help

RE: Locking while deleting

 directly analogous to constants; I like to use the Request scope for
 constants, though, as it's not stored in memory and avoids 
 the need for locking.

Where are they stored then?

Re: Certification Exam

2000-11-16 Thread David E. Crawford

One thing to keep in mind is that everyone who has taken the exam is under a
non-disclosure agreement with regards to the exam.  While a high level
overview of the areas to study is reasonable, going much further than that
is not appropriate.

This is SQL server 7, Cold fusion 4.5.1 - on separate boxes..
There has been no change to the cold fusion templates on this website in

about 6 months. These errors started popping up very infrequently a few 
weeks ago.. Maybe once every few days.  When the first error happens, I 
have to reboot the cold fusion server and it works again. The second one

clears itself quickly and works again.
 The only change I see is a increase in the database size, as well
as 
an increase in the number of visitors to the site.
When this happens, other databases still work.
That query takes only about 200ms.  How could it time out?  Any ideas?
I do not have any other programs opening it - the servers are
co-located, 
and do not even have MS access installed.
I do use MTS packages to copy the database  to my home computer a few
times 
a day.. would that exclusively lock the table and cause problems?

Suggestions on Allaire Tech Support problem

2000-11-16 Thread Erik Retz

Hello,

Our company is having a difficult time getting an issue resolved with
Allaire tech support.

We initially called Tech support on Oct 9th and did the whole credit card
thing  talk to someone.  Left a message waited... waited...  called back
left another message...  still nothingFinally 9 days later we got
some communication from Allaire.  It turns out that our problem was in fact
verified to be a bug (Bug # 19980).

Basically the bug is in the Linux versions of CF 4.51 (works fine in
windows, not sure about Solaris), that deals with a secure cfhttp post and
kills the server.  They've verified that it has something to do with ssl
version incompatibilities between the Linux cf server and the other server.

According to the Allaire bug system, it hasn't been verified as a bug, I
assume the developers must verify this also, and we cannot get any info from
Allaire as to an ETA for fixing this or if they even plan to fix it.  With
SP2 in RC stage, it's not looking good for that service pack.  This is a
very, very important part of a big application that we are doing (live
payment processing for an ecommerce mall) and is not something that we can
really work around without doing some sort of a hack with a windows box and
with our current configuration it would make things very ugly.

Anyway, the people that pay the bills around here are getting pretty upset
about this problem, and we haven't been able to get anywhere with Allaire.

Any suggestion?  People at Allaire that we can contact to get this resolved?
You can contact me off list if you'd prefer.

Thanks

-Erik

  UD4 is awesome.  The Server Behavior builder will let you fill in your
own
  code snippets with your own parameters so the next time you want to
insert
  the code, a custom dialogue box will pop up and let you fill in all the
  parameters.  It also does generation of some basic code so that you can
 get
  basic database-driven pages up there quickly.  UD1 was a little limiting
 for
  CF, but UD4 is great.

RE: Certified ColdFusion Developers

2000-11-16 Thread Robert Sarno

If we did not make it to the last CF Conference, how can we get certified in 
our local area.  My area is in Houston, Texas and how much is the 
certification test.

 Certification have adjusted their Sigs to say "Certified ColdFusion

RE: export excel charts - COM and CF (vs MSChart?)

2000-11-16 Thread Robert Sarno

I don't know what this is worth since I did not implement it myself.  A 
friend told me that he created an object that allowed him to mime the HTML 
data from the CF Web Site to Excel by creating a macro through the GUI and 
then using that MACRO with CFOBJECT to create a function that can take the 
format and color features between Excel and CF program intact.

I will be trying to implement this soon, so if this is asked again and you 
all are still stuck.  I will most my implementation.

  If anyone is interested, I wrote a macro to handle the data  chart

  Through CFOBJECT I'll see if I can insert data - hence triggering the

  exporting the gif. Then free the connection, move the file

  set the macro to save the gif in the webroot) and serve the gif using

  Just got to get it working now, but the theory is so far sound unless
  anyone

Re: Allaire CF Tuning Class

I didn't take the class, but I attended the DevCon2000 session where 2 
Allaire techs gave a presentation on how they tune.

They surprised me by saying they tested "Limit simultaneous requests" 
settings up to 30 or so.  I'd never before heard anyone go that high.

Another presenter at DevCon200 suggested the 3 to 5 we've all heard (with 3 
for CF-intensive apps and 5 for DB-intensive apps).

Howdy --

For reasons not worth going into, I'm trying to run a CF template via a
SQL Server trigger doing an "exec master..xp_cmdshell batchfile.cmd"
where the batchfile invokes cfml.exe to run the template.

My problem is that I need to feed the template a query string with
multiple parameters.

I know that, theoretically, the way to do this is to set the
QUERY_STRING environment variable to the query string I want (e.g., "SET
QUERY_STRING=one=1two=2three=3") before running cfml.exe, but my
problem is that the NT cmd interpreter is picking up the ampersand as a
special character and terminating the SET at the first ampersand.

Is there some special "escape" syntax that'll let me include an
ampersand as part of the value for a SET statement?  There are no clues
in HELP SET.  I've tried backslashes, double and single quotes, and
other things, but I can't seem to find the magic combination, and I know
there must be a way to do this.

Anybody?

OT: Java/ActiveX ComboBox, anyone?

2000-11-16 Thread Byron Stuart

Does anyone out there have a good Java/ActiveX ComboBox and an example of
how to use it on a page?  I need a ComboBox that allows you to type in the
edit control and sort the list items.  I already know about the custom tag
that creates the JavaScript "ComboBox" with query results, but I've got too
many list items to use it.  The JavaScript is way too slow, anyway.  I've
found a couple of ActiveX ComboBoxes, but they all suck.  I'd be very
grateful if you sent me a link, or example source for one that you like/use.
Thanks!

weird error

I have a form field on a site with two select boxes for month and year. For

The only odd thing I can see is the browser is listed as Cold Fusion 4.0...?

Error resolving parameter MONTH
ColdFusion was unable to determine the value of the parameter. This problem
is very likely due to the fact that either:

  1.. You have misspelled the parameter name, or
  2.. You have not specified a QUERY attribute for a CFOUTPUT, CFMAIL, or
CFTABLE tag.
The error occurred while evaluating the expression:

I just finished taking the test this morning.  Definitely know your
arrays and structures and some database knowledge is helpful as well.
Also don't be in a rush, I stopped in on my way to work with only about
30 minutes to run in and take the exam.  I passed which is what counts
but probably could have scored higher if I would have had more time.  

Oh and to answer your question number 3 on if you can go back at all,
yes it is computer based and they give you the option with each question
to come back at the end and review it to make changes.  You can also
mark it to add comments to.  Personally some of the questions where they
ask what is the "best" way to do things I found a little irritating.
Whats best for you might not be best for me. 

Just my 2 cents of course...

Don't take it too lightly.  I took it three times and failed.  I always
thought of my self as a good (better than average) cf programmer.  Only
missed it by one question the last time.

I will not complain until after I pass it.  But, I knew that the result
was
not going to be pretty when I guessed on five or six CFSCRIPT
questions.  I
have never used cfscript before.

Note: The 61 test questions are pulled from about 100 to 150 questions
(guessing).

Study:
CFscript
Array (pay attention to the names of the array tags)
Anything related to Structures. (and looping over them)
Application tag
SQL insert and wildcard selects

Hi,

I'm pretty new to this thread. Not knowing what's transpired, I'm just
wondering if anyone who's taken the certification exam could comment on
the
following:

1. What sort of familiarity are you expected to have with each CF tag
and
function? Are you supposed to know every attribute that you can use
with
each tag?

2. Can anyone recommed any exam preparation material or books? I found
it
really disappointing that compared to the more established exams (eg
Microsoft's or Novell's) there aren't a lot of published materials or
sample
exams (not questions) you can refer to.

3. When you're taking the exam, can you return to previous questions or
must
you answer each question there and then? (I guess I'd have to admit
that I'm
not sure if its computerized or paper-based).

  The test is easy enough, especially considering you only need 60%. 
Many
 of
  the questions are ambiguous so if you are not sure you can get a
decent
  amount wrong.

 Hopefully they'll change the questions soon.

 One thing to note is that they have a large bank of questions, so you
 shouldn't get the same exam if you sit it twice (some people were at
the
 Conference)

  If you've been coding for about a year or two and are
  familiar with the majority of CF tags you'll be fine.

 As an ammendment to Andrew's comment - be familiar with the majority
of
the
 CF4.5 tags, knowing CF4 will get you by, but they do ask some CF4.5
specific
 questions

  Look over the tags
  and functions, as well as error processing and how cf handles
copying
from
  one variable to another (remember cf is pass-by-reference).

 Also brush up on how CFScript works - it's fairly important... oh,
and
 knowing HTML, JavaScript and how a website basically works is a damn
good
 idea g

  Brush up on your queries

 A decent, but not amazing, knowledge of SQL is (pseudo) required, so
knowing
 only "SELECT * FROM TABLE" won't cut it...

  and last but not least... get a good night's sleep.

 Erm, I took it on 3 hours sleep over 40 hours... running on coffee,
but
 having sleep is a DAMN good idea g

 Overall, know as much about CF as you can - pretty bleeding obvious,
but
 there were some people at the Conf who took it after using CF for

Resolved: including ampersand in NT command line

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Howdy, folks --

For those of you who took time to think about my problem (how to include
an ampersand on the NT command line, so that I can pass (via the
QUERY_STRING environment variable) a whole list of parameters to a CF
template being run by a command-line invocation of CFML.EXE), thanks
anyway, but I finally found the answer buried in Microsoft's knowledge
base.

Since the ampersand separates multiple commands on the NT command line,
I knew there had to be some way to "escape" the character, but nothing I
tried worked.

Turns out the escape character simply is the caret (^), which is also
used to transform A through Z into Control-A through Control-Z.

Thus:

SET QUERY_STRING=one=1^two=2

will get you

QUERY_STRING=one=1two=2

Thanks again.

RE: CFFTP - CFLOOP Prob.

2000-11-16 Thread Andrew

Richard:
When using CFFTP the connection attribute is used so you don't have to
retype a lot of the other attributes over and over again.  It essentially
saves the connection data for you which is quite useful.  However if you try
to connect to another server and specify the same connection you'll run into
problems as it will try to use the old connection data.  I think an easy
solution to your problem is to make your connection attribute use a dynamic
name.  You could do this by tacking a random number on to the connection
name or by using the name/ip of the server itself as the connection name.
Let me know if this helps.

Subject: CFFTP - CFLOOP Prob.


I can't see what I am doing wrong.  I have the index page where the user
types in the name of the directory, chooses the file to upload finally
selects which servers to send it to via checkbox.  Since there is a
possibility of multiple servers, I use CFLOOP to loop throught the
delimitered list.  This works fine and all.  But if I select any server
minus the first one, I get an error with CFFTP.  I know that the CFFTP code
works and that the list is understandable.  Any clues here?

Thanks in advance.

Is there anyway to do this?

I have six variables in my database they are called:

EdName1, EdName2, etc.

It would be awesome if I could set a variable that could 
dynamically change
the number of each variable for me so I don't have to hard code the
variable.

For example (I know this doesn't work but it will get my point across:

cfset numvar = "2"

#EdName#numvar## = EdName2

How to tell between MS 2000, 97, 95, etc. with Cold Fusion

2000-11-16 Thread Jerry Tolentino


I wanted to allow users to upload various file of similar formats that
differ in versions. Is there a way to this. Most users
are not willing to do a "Save As" on file so I have to handle this on the
CF end... IF POSSIBLE!

Anyone know a way to distinguish between different file formats such as
word 2000, and 97.

Are there COM object that give this information?

Are ther e other ways?

Any help on this subject would help?

Does not have to apply soley to MS products (that was just an example)?

 missed it by one question the last time.
 
 I will not complain until after I pass it.  But, I knew that the result
 was
 not going to be pretty when I guessed on five or six CFSCRIPT questions.
 I
 have never used cfscript before.
 
 Note: The 61 test questions are pulled from about 100 to 150 questions

 Hi,
 
 I'm pretty new to this thread. Not knowing what's transpired, I'm just
 wondering if anyone who's taken the certification exam could comment on
 the
 following:
 
 1. What sort of familiarity are you expected to have with each CF tag and
 function? Are you supposed to know every attribute that you can use with
 each tag?
 
 2. Can anyone recommed any exam preparation material or books? I found it
 really disappointing that compared to the more established exams (eg
 Microsoft's or Novell's) there aren't a lot of published materials or
 sample
 exams (not questions) you can refer to.
 
 3. When you're taking the exam, can you return to previous questions or
 must
 you answer each question there and then? (I guess I'd have to admit that
 I'm
 not sure if its computerized or paper-based).

   The test is easy enough, especially considering you only need 60%.
 Many
  of
   the questions are ambiguous so if you are not sure you can get a
 decent
   amount wrong.
 
  Hopefully they'll change the questions soon.
 
  One thing to note is that they have a large bank of questions, so you
  shouldn't get the same exam if you sit it twice (some people were at
 the
  Conference)
 
   If you've been coding for about a year or two and are
   familiar with the majority of CF tags you'll be fine.
 
  As an ammendment to Andrew's comment - be familiar with the majority of
 the
  CF4.5 tags, knowing CF4 will get you by, but they do ask some CF4.5
 specific
  questions
 
   Look over the tags
   and functions, as well as error processing and how cf handles copying
 from
   one variable to another (remember cf is pass-by-reference).
 
  Also brush up on how CFScript works - it's fairly important... oh, and
  knowing HTML, JavaScript and how a website basically works is a damn
 good
  idea g
 
   Brush up on your queries
 
  A decent, but not amazing, knowledge of SQL is (pseudo) required, so
 knowing
  only "SELECT * FROM TABLE" won't cut it...
 
   and last but not least... get a good night's sleep.
 
  Erm, I took it on 3 hours sleep over 40 hours... running on coffee, but
  having sleep is a DAMN good idea g
 
  Overall, know as much about CF as you can - pretty bleeding obvious,
 but
  there were some people at the Conf who took it after using CF for only
 a
  couple of months (from those I chatted to and what I heard), which is a
 very
  bad idea - you can't just know the manuals parrot fashion - you MUST
 know
  the material!
 
  BTW, 60% isn't a difficult target to hit, it was annoying when a
 question
  has multiple answers but the system only allows one!

Re: RegEx help PLEASE hurry...

2000-11-16 Thread David Cummins

Firstly, I'm pretty sure you don't need to escape a space.

Secondly, no question mark is required, because I want to replace exactly one
character followed by exactly one space with just the character.

And thirdly, you don't have to specify that the character is not a space,
because a space gets turned into two spaces, remember, so also needs a space
stripped.

 This is the regExp syntax, but you would need to use this regexp to do the
 job properly:
 
 cfset blah=REReplace(blah,"([^\ .]?\ ?)\ ","\1","ALL")

OT: MS Access query

2000-11-16 Thread David Shadovitz

I'm trying to write an MS Access query like this:

SELECT Table1.Title
FROM Table1, Table2
WHERE Table1.Title = Table2.Title

The problem is that the Title fields' values may not be exactly equal.  Table2.Title 
may have additional text in parentheses at the end.  For example:

Table1.Title = "The cow jumped over the moon"
Table2.Title = "The cow jumped over the moon (really)"

I thought of using the LIKE operator, but it appears that LIKE only works when 
comparing a field and a string, not two fields.  If I'm wrong, please tell me the 
syntax.

Any other suggestions on how to do this query?

Thanks.
-David

Re: testing process

2000-11-16 Thread Gregory Harris

No formal test process that I know of, usually I just turn the Village idiot
in the company loose on my application and see what happens :-)

Seriously though, testing software is strictly proprietary based on what the
application is built to do, but answer the following questions when testing:

1) How well does this system perform under light load, moderate load, heavy
load, whatthehell load?
2) If I enter any out of bounds information into an application (through
either form or URL variables), what will happen?
3) Any security risks that you know of? High risk tags should be secured
very tightly against any such data, aka CFFILE, CFDIRECTORY, CFREGISTRY
(please on this one!), CFCONTENT and others
4) Broken links (duh)
5) Typos (duh)
6) Look and feel errors (ranging from as simple to a spellcheck to interface
or graphic looking wrong)

and on and on and on.

In short, pick what's appropriate and go crazyif your application is
live already, feel free to email me off-list with a URL, I love trying to
break ppl's apps and websites in my spare time and I'll charge my low rate
of 0$/hr (note this is a hobby, not a job...) :-)

 Does anybody know of a resource to help test code before releasing? Like a
 checklist or process?

 I need help learning to better test my code...

Re: rounding to first decimal

2000-11-16 Thread Kevin Miller


try this:

RoundedValue = Round(10 * Value)/10

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/16/00 09:17AM 
I thought this would be simple. How can round a long integer eg:
2.146752 to
the first decimal point?

Thanks,

Rick
