Security Access

2002-04-11 Thread Mark Leder


Building a secure access screen to an admin area on a site. I have a
login screen on a public template which is then passed to a Cfcheck
template.  Both of these templates are "controlled" by an
application.cfm template.
In this CFCheck template, if the Username and Password match what's in a
db, the following code is run:


  








But, I want to pass the valid user on to a starting page in the admin
section, which is "controlled" by a different application.cfm.

In this second application.cfm I have the following code:

   





Thus, the problem, can a Session, which is created in the Cfcheck.cfm
template be passed intact to another page, which is controlled by a
different application.cfm.

Whenever I run the login sequence, and I know it is successful, the
second application kicks me back out to the login screen (meaning that
its NOT IsDefined).

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Mark

What does DigExt mean ?

2002-04-11 Thread Vishal Narayan


We are logging all our application level errors to a database using the 
error collection.

When I look at the values of the error.browser field, it sometimes shows 
'DigExt' in the description. For example :

Browser: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows 98; DigExt)

Does anyone know what DigExt means ? I remember reading somewhere about it 
being related to one of the IE features of making a bookmarked page 
available offline, where it crawls all linked pages as well. Can anyone 
confirm this ?

Vishal.

RE: CFINCLUDE tag and relative paths

This is a problem I've encountered too and a real pain. I've just used 
attribute="#GetDirectoryFromPath(GetCurrentTemplatePath())#\foo.cfm"
which is rather unsightly.

I'd like to see that UDF!

Subject: CFINCLUDE tag and relative paths


I have a display template, called as a custom tag through CFMODULE. The
caller tags pass it an attribute called "navigation", which is the path
of a navigation template to display. The custom tag displays it using
.

I want the caller to be able to pass a path relative from itself (for
ease of use) - so the value you pass for the "navigation" attribute
would be the same as the value that a CFINCLUDE right inside the caller
template would use.

However, since the display template is in a different folder, just doing
 does not work, since it
expects the path to be relative from the current template, NOT the
caller template.

I wrote some UDFs that convert the value of attributes.navation so the
path is instead relative to the display template, allowing the CFINCLUDE
tag to work correctly. This solution is not very elegant, though. Nor is
it efficient.

Am I missing an easier way to do this? To summarize, I want a CFINCLUDE
tag to correctly find a path that is relative to the caller template,
instead of the current [custom tag] template.

Note: For reasons unknown to me, we aren't allowed to use the Custom
Tags folder on our server. So this display template I'm talking about is
actually below the wwwroot folder. I don't know if that makes any
difference in my problem.

This brings me to my second question: Do custom tags actually in the
Custom Tags folder behave differently concerning tags such as CFINCLUDE?
In this case, would the CFINCLUDE tag look for a template relative to
the caller template instead?

sql stored procs-need help

2002-04-11 Thread Langford, Bryan


Hello,
I am trying to create a stored procedure in SQL that will build a
trigger only so far I have been completely unsuccessful due in part to my
inexperience in the matter.  I was hoping that anyone who has some
experience in this matter might be able to help.  Here is what I have been
trying.
 
Procedure TRIG_DTA

(Trigtablename IN varchar,

Tablename IN varchar, Seqtablename IN varchar) AS

BEGIN

CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER Trigtablename

before insert on Tablename

for each row

begin

select Seqtablename.nextval into :new.FLDUNIQUE_ID from dual

end;

END;

Can anyone lend me some guidance on the matter?

What you want to do is trim off the time...

Try this:

Cast(floor(cast(getdate() as float)) as smalldatetime)

That'll trim the time off...

RE: Odd can't log in behavior

2002-04-11 Thread Shawn Grover


If it's a caching issue, then why not just turn off the caching?

These lines of code will do it:





They will prevent caching (in most cases) at the client browser, and at any
intervening proxies.

hey Janine,

i didn't see if anyone responded to your question, but in case they
didn't, my guess is it's a browser cache issue; for all our sites that
use forms which post commonly repeated information (like login
and lookup forms) we use javascript to generate an additional value
(usually in a hidden form field) when the form is submit, (usually
just a random number or a timestamp) to ensure that the
browser is always requesting a new page -- because browsers will
sometimes not actually even re-post information if it matches a cached
result.  if you can't use javascript for whatever reason, i would
suggest that you don't do cflocations for login errors, because that
process is often the culprit in these kinds of affairs.  hope that
helps you!

That would be very curious if that worked.  As I recall, the client
variable
database doesn't have a field for recording the ipaddress.  I'd suspect
that
cookies are not being set properly, or that they don't match the token
being
passed around in the url/forms.

I forget, are you running clustered / balanced db servers, or cf servers?
I
know this is a dumb question, but your not trying to balance client
variables across datasources, right?  Multiple cf servers pointing at a
single client variable storage works, but I have no idea how one could
possibly use multiple db servers for client variables.  Again, probably a
really dumb question.

RE: Client Variable Scrabble


That would be very curious if that worked.  As I recall, the client variable
database doesn't have a field for recording the ipaddress.  I'd suspect that
cookies are not being set properly, or that they don't match the token being
passed around in the url/forms.

I forget, are you running clustered / balanced db servers, or cf servers?  I
know this is a dumb question, but your not trying to balance client
variables across datasources, right?  Multiple cf servers pointing at a
single client variable storage works, but I have no idea how one could
possibly use multiple db servers for client variables.  Again, probably a
really dumb question.

2002-04-11 Thread Owens, Howard


All of the great suggestions from yesterday ... check the storage,
setdomaincookies, etc. etc.  ... we ran through all of them today.
Everything checked out.

We've still got a problem

If users are logged on at the same time, working in tandem, the client
variables get jumbled -- one user gets another user's variables showing up
on their stuff.

I'm baffled, frustrated and out of ideas.

Any suggestions?

RE: Pausing using CF

2002-04-11 Thread Rick Osborne [mojo]


Michael Tangorre asked:
> Can anyone think of a way that I can achieve a pause for like 30 
> seconds to a minute between iterations in a loop?

This question gets asked quite a bit, so I figured I'd forward my
alternative.

  
  
  
  


  
  
  
  
  
  Elapsed: #Elapsed#ms

It's nicer points are:

1. It doesn't require anything external to be installed (CFX tags, Java,
etc).  (It does, however, require that you have session management
enabled.  If you don't have session management enabled, then the code
doesn't sleep.)
2. No spiking the processor.

The drawbacks are:

1. It will hold up all locks in the *Session*, so don't use it if you
expect the user to be doing other things while the thread sleeps.
2. Since it uses Session-scoped locking you'll need CF 4.5.

If what it is doing is non-obvious, here's a quick explanation:

- The first CFLOCK statement creates a Session lock.
- The second CFLOCK tries to get a lock, but it can't because there is
already a lock.  (CF doesn't seem to care that the thread owns the lock
it is waiting on.)  Classic deadlock.
- It sleeps (actually a WaitForSingleObject() call, I assume, which is
basically the same thing) until the TIMEOUT has been reached, at which
point it throws an error.
- The surrounding CFTRY/CFCATCH statement traps the error, ignores it,
and the thread continues on.

This leads to drawback 3:

3. If MacroAllaire ever gets around to making the locking mechanism
smart enough to realize that a thread already has a lock and just throw
it out, this trick will cease to work.

In case you are wondering if this would work with Named locks (and
therefore 4.0 and not tie up Session locks), I don't have a definitive
answer for you.  I messed around with it a bit, but couldn't get it to
work consistantly.  However, since normally if you want a Session thread
to sleep you don't tend to mind if the Session locks, I haven't bothered
to do much testing.

HTH,

Help !! IIS 4.0

2002-04-11 Thread David Green


Hello list

We had a server running CF5  and IIS 3.   Loaded Q319733i Hot fix.  Hot fixed crashed 
IIS 3 grr,   Could not get IIS to restall was getting errors,  I unloaded IIS 3 
tried again failed again.  Moved to IIS4 installed fine have it seeing a couple of 
webs domains.   My problem now is I cant get it to see any web pages in sub 
directories of the virtual domains web sites root.   The only way I have gotten any 
pages to work is by making the sub directory a virtual directory in IIS.   I have lots 
of sub directories g.   I have not even gotten to deal with CF yet.   Man this 
sucks, all this loading security patch.  
I'm not an expert I just do this stuff in addition to my normal job.

Any Idea's or things am setting up wrong ?

Thanks
David Green

Uh, yes, that's analogous to using

SELECT lastid = @@IDENTITY

The issue was that Tony had suggested storing the identity value in an SQL
variable, rather than returning it as a query column.

I ran the code and got the following error.  So, I guess the answer is yes.

-
The JVM library path is empty. To use Java objects or Java CFXs, you need to
install (if not already installed) the JDK or JRE and specify the path of
the JVM in the ColdFusion Administrator. Please read the release notes
regarding the version of the software that is needed.

The only problem with that is that for as long as you want cf to sleep it
will loop and loop and loop and loop and loop and loop. It would be like

RE: Help! How can I extract a form from a webpage?

2002-04-11 Thread Mario Martinez R.


 Ernie :
After CFHTPP the page content is gonna be in
#cfhttp.filecontent# as an string.
After that you only have to use regular expresion and
some string functions like REFind to get the data you
want.
hint:You can see html code of the page you want to
retrieve in advance in your browser.
I hope this help friend.

RE: Sending Message Alerts...


hidden frames are the best way to do this. just a query that run in the
hidden frame and everything say 30 seconds or so, retireve the information
from the server and then you can use javascript to paste the message to
another frame.

RE: Pausing using CF

2002-04-11 Thread Brad Roberts



function sleep(timeMillis) {
var thread = createObject("java", "java.lang.Thread");
thread.sleep(timeMillis);
}


This was from Robert Everland III a few posts back: (Multiple CFMail
Problem).  I included the original post below.

The only problem with that is that for as long as you want cf to sleep it
will loop and loop and loop and loop and loop and loop. It would be like
telling a taxi driver to drive for 5 minutes while you get your bags instead
of telling him to shut off the car to conserve gas. Here is a UDF I found
that uses a java com object to sleep. Works beautifully.


function sleep(timeMillis) {
var thread = createObject("java", "java.lang.Thread");
thread.sleep(timeMillis);
}

Re: OT: Payment terms

2002-04-11 Thread Dirk Sieber


Thanks Jeffry - I've gone ahead & subscribed to cf-jobs talk as well, and 
I'll watch the discussion over there as well.  This should be my last 
comment about this on the CF-Talk list, unless others want it to continue 
here.

To offer some additional data points:
-Yes, this is an hourly project.
-We're probably talking limited hours - to start, at least - For example, 
the first two things presented to me will probably take, at a rough guess, 
only about 10 hours.
-I don't think the retainer fee is too likely for this project, but I'll 
keep it in mind for the future.

Thanks for all your comments, and the comments of others.  This is 
definitely giving me a lot more information to think about before I put 
anything in writing. :)

Does anyone have a copy of a rather generic contract that I might be able 
to modify to fit?  I realize that this won't be as good as talking to a 
lawyer, but it's bound to be better than anything I  come up with.

That's a good way to peak out your processor at 100%.  If you do this a
lot, it's gonna kill your performance.

I'd imagine a better way to do it would be to invoke the native "sleep"
function in the win32 api - there's a cfx_sleep (freeware on tag

RE: Help! How can I extract a form from a webpage?

2002-04-11 Thread Shawn Grover


The Form names are URL parameters, if the form is submitted with the GET
method.

So, you can just scan through your Query_String for the name/value pairs.

This can be done by looping through the URL elemetents (in cfscript
something like "for( field in url )"), or by parsing the parameters as a
list.

I think it's worth pointing out that, when you say: 

query="#getProductList#"

you are passing the query by reference. Queries and structures are passed by
reference, while arrays and simple types are passed by value. When something
is passed by reference, there's only one object, but multiple names that
point to the object.

It's also worth noting that you could reference the query from within the
custom tag without passing it at all, so if you did this:

query="getProductList"

you could reference it within the custom tag like this:

Caller.getProductList

However, I prefer the first approach myself.

NET 30 seems to be the most common, if you're working with larger
companies.  (for invoices to cycle through management, A/P, etc)  Just
make sure you have the payment policies defined in your contract.

(for example, NET 30, 1% of aggregated balance for each day past 30)

nothing is reported in that week, the client is assumed to have signed
off

OT Domain register/DNS host

2002-04-11 Thread Joseph Thompson


Apologies for the OT..

Last year I asked if there where any Canadians here that did domain
registration and/or DNS hosting. (and then lost the info) I prefer Western
Canada but anywhere up here is fine, email me off list, I have a couple new
customers/sites to register :-)

Thanks!

In the past when I have done terms I have given net 15 and after 90days they
can move to a net 30 as long as there were no late payments. I do that just

Yes.  The trick is evaluating it before passing it, you can't pass it by reference.  
It becomes an attribute of the tag.

Re: Payment terms

2002-04-11 Thread nick


Dirk: I've tried several things.  The setup I eventually settled on was half
on delivery (basically, when they can start using it), and half after a
given time period. I NEVER upload or deliver code/graphics without at least
some payment at time of delivery.  What I have found is that 90% of my
clients think (or appear to think based upon actions), that the Internet,
and their web development/hosting, is a non-essential expense. And that
cutting checks for such work seems to come last on their list, even if they
are heavily dependent on their websites for income or important operational
data, etc.  I don't understand this attitude towards the Internet, hopefully
it's just localized and that the rest of you aren't experiencing this.

What I've also found is that even if I have a contract, that if I deliver
without pay, I will go 6 months or more before I see a check. So I have to
get at least some out of them on delivery.  No one will give me COD terms.
Everyone seems hessitant on this. They say they are scared that if they pay
all of it on delivery I will disappear and I won't support my product.  I
guess application developers have a bad reputation for this in these parts
for pulling disappearing acts. Again, I don't understand it, but it's the
general feeling amongst my prospect / customer pool, so I have to adjust.

So I am nervous that they will never pay, and they are nervous that if they
pay, I will magically stop taking their phone calls. So we meet in the
middle.

I would be curious what people in the rest of the States and around the
world have experienced in prospect / customer attititudes lately.  Are large
companies behaving differently than small companies?

This could be an interesting thread.

Good luck.

Nick

I deliver the bill after one week of no reported bugs.  All my bills are 
payment due on receipt, and I starting charging interest on the 31st day 
(however, I've never had to wait more than a week to get paid.)

Re: Payment terms


Well that sounds pretty good. I have a client that I do the same thing for, but
he pays me in advance!! (Consider that rare) Anyhow as most companies are net 30
you will most likely be dealing with that time frame. I would say that anytime
before the invoice becomes due, should be the debug period. This will help
alleviate any potential problems that the client may have in the future. In your
invoice, I would state that by paying said invoice you are agreeing that the
product supplied is satisfactory and that any additional work will be billed at
an hourly rate.

SQL Server 2000 and @@Identity

2002-04-11 Thread Rick Walters


Hi List,

I recently upgraded from SQLServer7 to 2k and the @@identity in the
code below now returns a null string.  Anyone know why this might be
happening?  

code block~~


set nocount on
insert into people 
(password, username)
values
('something', 'testuser123456')
SELECT lastid = @@identity
set nocount off







insert into people_detail
(peopleid, firstname, lastname)
values
(#thepeopleid#, 'firstname', 'lastname')

end code block~~~

Thanks for the help.

Good Fortune,

Re: how to tell if a session has expired


Yeah I guess it does make more sense to just use a longer period of time 
before it expires. Thanks for the help everyone.

Well for a shopping cart application, I would not set your timeout period for a
short amount of time. I would set it for like 1 hour and that should alot plenty
of time for them to finish they're shopping experience.

You could look for the SESSION variable. If the session has timed out
then it will not exist. ie


Send the user somewhere else.

Re: how to tell if a session has expired

2002-04-11 Thread Justin Scott


That depends on how you handle your session management.  If you're using
session variables, I do not think there's much you can do in the way of
detecting when they expire (I could be wrong, I don't use Session vars for
several reasons).

I use cookies for my session handling.  A combination of three session
cookies, one that stores their member id, another for a session hash
(security), and another with the date/time a page was displayed (encrypted
if you like).  On each page load requiring the user to be logged in, I check
the timestamp against the current time, and if X minutes have passed, it
resets the other cookies and sends them back to the login page with a
"session expired" message.

The timestamp cookie can also be used in conjunction with session variables
to achieve the same results as long as your users have cookies enabled.

You can just do an IsDefined('Session.SomeSessionVar') on a common session
variable you create for each user (usually a Session.LoggedIn or
Session.Authenticated).  At least that's been the technique I have used, and
it works great ;)
