RE: Restarting CF from Web
Starting and stoping CF will generally require root/administrator access in default install. If you take the following suggestions make sure you're aware of how to exec system commands safely in a web accessible script. *NIX: - If your under *nix w/ Perl or PHP support; change to a user w/ permissions to control the CF process then run $CF_root/bin/start and stop (default is /opt/coldfusion). WIN32: -- Under NT w/ Perl, PHP, or ASP support; change to a user w/ permissions to control the CF process then run: NET START Cold Fusion Executive NET START Cold Fusion Application Server NET START Cold Fusion RDS I think I have the correct order, there's a cycle.bat or something under %CF_root%\bin\ that will provide the correct order if I'm mistaken. Reverse order for NET STOP. If you don't have knowledge of these languages and you'd like a Perl or PHP script for *nix/NT I can whip you up one on request, or if you run Webmin I've made a quick module for it (nothing fancy at all, purely for my own use when no SSH is available). If you're IIS on NT someone w/ more knowledge than I could probably make a quick ASP script for you. -Original Message- From: Tim Painter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: May 11, 2001 08:31 To: CF-Talk Subject: Restarting CF from Web Hello!

RE: Harpoon Release is Final Available
Heh, Could have saved myself some time by simply RTFM! Never mind, its always useful to see how someone else architects things: (From componentkit.pdf) Two mechanisms were evaluated for passing information from Macromedia ColdFusion to Macromedia Flash. One involved passing variables in over the URL to the Macromedia Flash object. The other involved using the Macromedia Flash loadVariables command to have each component read information through a separate HTTP request. Depending on the browser and operating system, there may be a limit to the number of characters that can be strung on the end of a SWF's URL, ranging from 2K to 4K characters. Because of this limitation, our design uses the Macromedia Flash loadVariables command to pull information from a separate Macromedia ColdFusion file. When a Component Kit component is instantiated, Macromedia ColdFusion holds the parameter information in the Macromedia ColdFusion server scope, loads the Macromedia Flash movie for the component, and passes a callback URL into the Macromedia Flash movie. This callback URL, which points to fetchdata.cfm, allows the instantiated Macromedia Flash movie to retrieve its specific information using Macromedia Flash loadVariables. --- Rich Wild Senior Web Designer --- e-mango.com ltd Tel: 01202 587 400 Lansdowne Place Fax: 01202 587 401 17 Holdenhurst Road Bournemouth Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] BH8 8EW, UK http://www.e-mango.com --- This message may contain information which is legally privileged and/or confidential.

RE: using WDDX for next 'n' style browsing
Dick Thanks for your advice, its funny but my boss just said the same thing (about using flash) My main goal was to not make another trip to the server (hence the use of javascript and wddx) Only the neccesary fields would be sent to the browser. I suggested using an applet but my boss pointed out without a java enabled browser with the correct version this functionality would be useless,I would have thought the same went for using flash as well. The two goals i was aiming for were not to perform another query and not to make another trip to the server. Is this possible with a cached query and Flash?

It clogs the net with [largely] unnecessary traffic. Further, the verbosity of WDDX packets only exacerbates the problem by increasing the amount of the data sent (over and over and over...)

RE: best search
OK - verity searches *best* on text files - and I gather you will be creating a collection of text files - but you have to consider the display of the content (i.e. to send the searcher to the correct page with the correct formatting) - what we have done historically is this five stage process: 1) create a verity collection in the server administrator 2) write a local indexing page that takes the collection and compiles it with the correct url/ path functions. (in this case we usually have our website road mad in mind - with section1.cfm text files in section1 folder, section2.cfm text files in section2 folder, etc.) 3) create a search assist table with the following variables in: a) id - unique ref b) front - any front path you may need (e.g. section1/section1.cfm?var=1 would be held as section1/ here) c) middle - the search/clipped variable - used for cross checking with verity url results - (e.g. section1/section1.cfm?var=1 would be section1 here d) end - any end variables or includes you may need for that page (e.g. section1/section1.cfm?var=1 would be .cfm?var=1 here) e) title - title of page to show in result output 4) write a search/results page which takes the search query and passes it through the verity collection - to bring back the #url# variable - strips the last 4 characters and everything before the last / which gives you a clipped variable - then select content from the search assist table which holds the clipped variable in the middle column - output this result (using the full #front##middle##end# as the path) 5) write a cfschedule that re-indexes the collection at 2am (usual down time for server) This above methodology allows you to (for example) use JavaScript pop-up in your output (e.g. href=javascript:(displayPopUp('section1/section1.htm',400,600) where front var = javascript:(displayPopUp('section1/, middle var = section1 and end var = .htm',400,600), etc. - it's by no means the fastest method - as you have to query the verity collection AND then query the sql table (use blockfactor=100 here though) - but it's the most comprehensive if you have a complex structure to your website - as it allows for pre/and post variables to be added to the result url path (which other searches won't allow). We use a similar methodology on a collection/site of 40mb and the average results page would come back within 1265 milliseconds (which is chuggy) In answer to your other query - yes the AltaVista is a server based search.

Re: best search
My problem is that I'm already have 300mb of textual content. The Verity Connection to CF really rocks and can help significantly in design, but I don't think it can handle the amount of data. Are you familier with Microsoft Solutions for this? (i.e MSSQL Full Text Search?) As for your project, I don't see no reason why should you even connect to SQL every time to get the unique ID or anything else, why don't you use the KEY,CUSTOM1 and CUSTOM2 fields to better process (with minmial milliseconds costs and risk that the SQL would be down...) also, I don't see the real use in spliting the full address into 3 parts (can you please exaplain and give an example on why this is of use?) I use verity on another site (http://www.imvamp.com) without no need to go to the database. ofcourse, the data was exported to sql, but only to be arranged more efficiently into a Verity collection. In your case of 40mb, I would consider doing the same. Any help on MS SQL Full Text Search would be great!!!

RE: 2 simpl q's about locking
The timeout value repressents how long the process will wait to obtain a lock of the type specified. If throwontimeout is set to Yes it will raise an exception if a lock can not be obtained, if it's No then the code will skip to the end of the block (not executing anything in the block).

Re: catalog.wci filling up hard drive space?
Yes, that is the index for the index server. It's been a while, but I believe the space that it takes up is roughly 40-50% of the amount of space taken up by what it is indexing. If you are running newsgroups on the same server and indexing those, it can skyrocket. You can go into IIS and look up each directory and on the Home Directory tab, uncheck the Index this resource box.

RE: best search
Sure - for v. big sites I have used AltaVista (www.dfee.gov.uk for example) and this is coolio - if I was to do it again though I would probably use Atomz.com stuff - for various reasons. Rationale for splitting full address into 3 parts: 1) Holding one url field means that you may as well use the default verity url param - but this does not allow for the inclusion of template page build variables. 2) Split the url into file name and variable includes means that if you have variable includes on a template you can include them (e.g. you have everything in you site coming through index.cfm with a menu variable and a content variable) - so index.cfm would default to the base menu and content, while links from this page would include alternate menus and content - e.g. index.cfm?menu=searchcontent=sitemap would use the base template, pull in the search menu (with relative sub-section options) and the sitemap content (check out www.connexionscard.gov.uk for an example of this) 3) there are some cases however when you may need a pre-variable (such as the javascript example I gave earlier - hence the 3 way split We are familiar with MSSQL Full Text Search, but it did not rock our world Key, custom1, etc is fine, but the pages/text content do not hold the relative include variables we need when building a nested template site (see above break-down). sorry I can't be of more help though J -Original Message- From: Michael Lugassy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 15 May 2001 11:59 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: best search My problem is that I'm already have 300mb of textual content.

(i.e MSSQL Full Text Search?) As for your project, I don't see no reason why should you even connect to SQL every time to get the unique ID or anything else, why don't you use the KEY,CUSTOM1 and CUSTOM2 fields to better process (with minmial milliseconds costs and risk that the SQL would be down...) also, I don't see the real use in spliting the full address into 3 parts (can you please exaplain and give an example on why this is of use?) I use verity on another site (http://www.imvamp.com) without no need to go to the database. ofcourse, the data was exported to sql, but only to be arranged more efficiently into a Verity collection.

RE: 2 simpl q's about locking
Sorry, it's late and I had completely forgetten about 1 by the time I finished reading 2.. hehe. I'm going to go a bit out on a limb here and say no. As you're only checking the symbol table to see if the name is defined -- not trying to get a coherent value from it or access the same memory address from possibly multiple simultaneous threads -- it should be thread safe. I personally don't lock on isDefined() checks but I may err in that practice (nor IIRC have I ever seen it mentioned in articles). If someone has more information on exactly how isDefined() works internally in regards to multi-threading it would be interesting to know. -Original Message- From: Michael Lugassy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: May 15, 2001 05:02 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: 2 simpl q's about locking Got it! and what about the isDefined(question) ? do you know the answer to it?

RE: CF and custom stylesheets
Hi Scott We did exactly the same thing - the trick seemed to be that the style.cfm page has to have a CFCONTENT tag in it, otherwise the browser just doesn't get it. By the way, we found that it killed performance by an incredible amount, so we switched to doing it by writing the stylesheet to a .css file (with CFFILE) once the selections had been made, and just putting link rel=StyleSheet TYPE=text/css HREF=#CSSFilename#.css into subsequent pages. This lowered CPU DB load by almost a third - i'd HIGHLY recommend you try it like this.

Aidan, I'm afraid this is a negative one as well, but on the strength of Amazon ratings I bought a very expensive M$ Press book called something like SQL Server 7.0 Database Implementation Kit which did include a 3-month eval of the DBMS but was very superficial. The only use I've found for it is that my 3-year-old daughter (4 tomorrow now I come to think of it) keeps some treasured belongings inside the box cover.

RE: SQL Server 7 book(s) recommendation
Personally, I think the M$ books are too vague (rendering them useless), and a waste of money. The best book I've come across (and has since been referred to as the bible) is Transact-SQL Programming from O'Reilly. It covers MS SQL 7 and certainly has more than just T-SQL.

If you want people to be able to download it, you'll have to specify a URL, and if someone wants to tinker around enough, there's nothing you can do to prevent them from downloading the file itself. You could make it slightly more difficult by using JavaScript to build URLs on the client - a sort of obfuscation - but that's about it. Since you're using IE-specific stuff like HTC files, though, you might be able to encode some of the logic using the MS script encoder.

RE: 2 simpl q's about locking
I'm going to go a bit out on a limb here and say no. As you're only checking the symbol table to see if the name is defined -- not trying to get a coherent value from it or access the same memory address from possibly multiple simultaneous threads -- it should be thread safe. I personally don't lock on isDefined() checks but I may err in that practice (nor IIRC have I ever seen it mentioned in articles). If someone has more information on exactly how isDefined() works internally in regards to multi-threading it would be interesting to know. According to an email I received quite a while back from Sim Simeonov at Allaire - the guy who was, at the time, the lead developer of the CF engine, I believe - IsDefined reads of memory variables should be locked.

SQL Joins.
Hello folks, I ma having a spot of bother with joining tables in a query and could do with some advice. There are 4 tables: company_table, slow_stream, medium_stream and fast_stream Company table holds: company ID, name. The other tables also have a company_name field.

Slightly OT: Informix DB
Hi, We have a client who has a Informix database hosted on a unix server. We are working on a set of applications that will require us to tie into it via ColdFusion and Visual Basic. While I know ColdFusion has native support for Informix, we will need to setup ODBC for the other applications - does this require any changes on the server, or is it simply a matter of installing the client ODBC drivers?

I am guessing this is a one to many relationship between company_table and the remaining tables. select * from company_table t1 left outer join slow_stream t2 t1.name = t2.name left outer join medium_stream t2 on t1.name = t3.name left outer join fast_stream t4 on t1.name = t4.name However, you may encounter problems joining on text fields if the data type is char and not varchar or if the values have not been trimmed.

RE: @@identidy in sql server 7 (What is SET NOCOUNT)
From the SQL Server BOL: SET NOCOUNT Stops the message indicating the number of rows affected by a Transact-SQL statement from being returned as part of the results. Syntax SET NOCOUNT { ON | OFF } Remarks When SET NOCOUNT is ON, the count (indicating the number of rows affected by a Transact-SQL statement) is not returned. When SET NOCOUNT is OFF, the count is returned. The @@ROWCOUNT function is updated even when SET NOCOUNT is ON. SET NOCOUNT ON eliminates the sending of DONE_IN_PROC messages to the client for each statement in a stored procedure. When using the utilities provided with Microsoft(r) SQL Server(tm) to execute queries, the results prevent nn rows affected from being displayed at the end Transact-SQL statements such as SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE. For stored procedures that contain several statements that do not return much actual data, this can provide a significant performance boost because network traffic is greatly reduced. The setting of SET NOCOUNT is set at execute or run time and not at parse time.

CSV file;CFFILE;Sybase IQ12
Hi all. Hoping someone who has BEEN THERE, DONE THAT can help. Have to create a csv file from a cfquery resultset which can then be imported into a number of programs that do statistical analysis. Approximately 5000 rows/records with a final size of 1730 kb. A sql count and the display of the first 10 rows to screen is only a matter of seconds. Using CFFILE to covert query to CSV was VERY SLOW (intranet: approx. 1 min/1000 rows). NOT ACCEPTIBLE. Downloading the file to the client machine is a matter of seconds (approx 1 sec/1000 rows). Using SQL and concatenating the fields per record, much, much faster. Easier, in SQL SYBASE IQ12 is to add the following after the last clause in the WHERE statement: ' newfile.txt'. The query WORKS in Interactive SQL, but when the SQL statement is wrapped in the CFQUERY, it BOMBS out. Can't read the as a piping command. SoThe question: what is the OPTIMAL process for generating the CSV file. Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks, in advance, Carol Carol L.

RE: @@identidy in sql server 7
SET NOCOUNT - determines if SQL returns the number of rows affected by the SQL command. So for an insert ... SQL would return a 1 (if successfully insert one row) or 0 (if the insert failed due to unique constraint or something) for the number of rows affected vice the SELECT @@identity. CFQUERY expects a single return set and drops the others ... first one back wins. Note that if the INSERT was wrapped in a stored procedure and you used cfstoredproc, you could return multiple result sets and in one have the number of rows affected and the @@identity value in another etc. Bill In a message dated Tue, 15 May 2001 1:21:17 PM Eastern Daylight Time, Mike Kear [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: What does the set nocount on do?

CF-Notes database connection
I investigated the CF-Talk archives and found a very brief mention of this last December, but am wondering if anyone else has had any experience with getting data into or out of a Lotus Notes database. I downloaded Lotus' NotesSQL driver, installed it, created a DSN, and verified it in CF Administrator. Only problem is that after the verification, CF Server was dead. I had to stop and restart CF Server. I created a simple query, which gave a NotesSQL error message, and CF Server was dead again.

Re: Scientific Notation Formatting
You can do something like: cfset num=26000 cfoutput#numberformat(num / 10^(len(num)-1),9.9)#e#evaluate(len(num)-1)#/cfoutput Just bear in mind that this works for numbers =1 HTH, Howie Hamlin - inFusion Project Manager On-Line Data Solutions, Inc. www.CoolFusion.com 631-737-4668 x101 inFusion Mail Server (iMS) - The Intelligent Mail Server - Original Message - From: Corina Moore [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2001 1:03 PM Subject: Scientific Notation Formatting Anyone have any ideas on how to format a number using scientific Notation?

Strange problem (or still asleep)
Hello, i'm running the code below and i'm not getting the expected results. i'm passing in a variable with the length of 5 so i would expect that the errorString would not be appended, but in fact it is. The same thing happens when i pass in a variable with the length of 9. I can't seem to figure out why this is happening. Can anyone help?

CFLOOP and multiple variables
I have a shopping cart system (part of the one that came with CF Server) and i would like to have users be able to order multiple items with different quantities. IE a user could order 4 red hammers, 2 blue hammers, and 5 green hammers in one click of the button. When they hit the submit button i get these Form variables. FORM.SKU = 12,34,23 FORM.QUANTITY = 1,3,2 Here is my existing code to add the items, but right now it is setup to add only one item at a time with one quantity. How can i loop over this code with the proper SKU, and Quanity for each part of the form variables list? If i use cfloop INDEX=loopingSKU LIST=#form.SKU# then all i can loop is the SKU, the Quantity does not loop. !--- If the item is already in the basket... --- CFIF ListFind(Session.StoreItems, Form.SKU) NEQ 0 !--- Find where in the basket it is --- CFSET ItemPosition = ListFind(Session.StoreItems, Form.SKU) !--- Find out how many of the item are already in the basket --- CFSET CurrentQuantity = ListGetAt(Session.StoreQuantities, ItemPosition) !--- Now we add one to what's already in there --- CFSET Session.StoreQuantities = ListSetAt(Session.StoreQuantities, ItemPosition, CurrentQuantity + Form.Quantity) !--- Otherwise, just add it to the basket --- CFELSE CFSET Session.StoreItems = ListAppend(Session.StoreItems, Form.SKU) CFSET Session.StoreQuantities = ListAppend(Session.StoreQuantities, Form.Quantity) /CFIF Any help would be appreciated. Hopefully i explained this without making it super confusing. Thanks, Chad ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

CF 4.5/5.0 ORACLE stored procedures - how to cache results??
Folks, A key aspect of our site is a search function that allows users to specify criteria in several categories for a DSS-type query against the database. Since use of this feature is expected to be heavy, response time is critical. To optimize performance, we've designed this section to dynamically generate the SQL based on the user's selection. By dynamically generating the SQL, we can eliminate unneeded joins and tailor the criteria for faster throughput. To further improvement performance, we've designed the module that generates the SQL as an Oracle stored procedure that is called from the search page within a CFSTOREDPROC tag. To return multiple rows back to ColdFusion, we use an Oracle REF CURSOR from the stored procedure. While the stored procedure call from the CFSTOREDPROC tag works, we need the ability to cache large result sets (to allow paging through results) in the same way that the CFQUERY tag provides caching through the CACHEWITHIN option. we have tried the following two options unsuccessfully: (1) Add the CACHEWITHIN option to the CFSTOREDPROC tag (apparently not supported) (2) Call the stored procedure from within the CFQUERY tag - (REF CURSORS not supported) What are the options in achieving this functionality? Our platform is CF 4.5.1 (SP2) on Solaris against ORACLE 8.1.7 (Solaris) utilizing native drivers, but we're in a position to move to CF5 since we'd like to test that with Spectra 1.5.1 Release Candidate anyway.

E-commerce Dilemma
Hi! I need to implement an e-commerce package for one of my sites, but I haven't worked with e-commerce before. What they want is fairly simple, just the ability to buy items on-line. This in mind, I think AbleCommerce would be over-kill. The two I have researched are CFWebstore and Cartease. I'm torn between the two...does anyone have reasons to go with one or the other? What I need is a solution that I can add on to an existing site or build a complete store from scratch. Ease of implementation would be nice too :) Thanks, Christine ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
