RE: MM Priorties? (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready to dump CF!
Vernon, We were seriously looking to go to CFMX in the next month or so...with all these issues being discussed here...dont think we can afford to sacrifice our development time... fighting CFMX issues The base of this Thread is some kind of acknowlegment of problems/issues by MM which would help us plan a safe transition into CFMX. We are running about 5000 transactions a day through CF Apps and we have a NEED to explore additional functions in CFMX, we were also looking to run CFMX for IBM Webshpere.. dont think any of the above is going to happen in near future with all these issues. Flash has never been a priority for us eventhough we have the software.

RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready to dump CF!
I ran into a couple of hurdles, yes...but I haven't rushed into porting old apps yet 'cause I follow the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" motto. I've been using cfmx extensively for new projects with great success minus those hurdles. I've also found my share of bugs and workarounds...and I get frustrated whenever Apache releases a new version but...that's life...I've voiced my opinion and that's that...hopefully they opt for a more flexible model. >From a product management perspective u gotta take into account the effects a 1.0 release can have on your timeline...Expect the unexpected...and if don't have the bandwidth to handle roadblocks...then wait till the product matures before jumping in head first and promising management the stars. This goes for any product.

RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready to dump CF!
Joe, I don't want to sound overly defensive, but, to respond to your points... The development teams are two different groups, so, addressing both aren't mutually exclusive, and could very well happen concurrently (but not necessarily). and... The subject was brought up here, so I thought it would be good to reply here. Additionally, it looked like a great opportunity to emphasize why it's important to use the feature request and bug report form, even though Macromedia personnel watch this list. -Vern > -Original Message- > From: Joe Eugene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 10:24 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready > to dump CF! > > > Vernon, > Doesnt it sound logical to clean up bugs in CFMX before > thinking of new > features? > Priorities...?

RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready to dump CF!
Without getting too deep into the details, Flash Remoting is implemented with an EAR that captures requests with a specific servlet mapping. Since you can only have one of these servlet mappings per container, you can only use one Flash Remoting EAR per container. If you use the EAR provided with CFMX then you can't use Flash Remoting with Java. If you use the EAR provided with JRun 4 or Flash Remoting for J2EE you would need to overwrite the EAR supplied with CFMX. Changing/overwriting any of the supplied Java classes is a violation of the license agreement and thus can't be done.

RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready to dump CF!
Guess my question wasn't clear. Two scenarios we were discussing. 1) Remoting on CFMX on J2EE. Accessing CF and underlying java (Can't do) 2) Remoting on CFMX on J2EE + Remoting for Java installed on same box. (offering two flash gateways) My question was in regards to scenario 2. I can't see how it can be disabled for the Remoting for Java unless it's JRun specific. Anyway thanks for your input.

RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready to dump CF!
Thanks Stace, Not to split hairs, but all feature requests and bugs are product management issues in the big picture. =) So that product management knows the scope/numbers of folks wanting/needing remoting available to both CF and Java at the same time, it's important for each person to file the request. I'll include this issue in the information I relay back internally - but, it really helps make whatever I say have more punch, if it's backed up by customer filed feature requests (and bug reports for those issues). I mean, they like my reports, but they like my reports even better, when other data backs up what I'm reporting. =) Thanks (really!) -Vern > -Original Message- > From: Stacy Young [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 9:48 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready > to dump CF! > > > Hi Vernon, > > Sounds like more of a Product Management issue though...If > I'm understanding > it correctly, running CFMX on J2EE should make Remoting > available to both > the CF environment and the underlying Java... > > I'll toss that in the request form anyhow. :-) > > Stace > > -Original Message- > From: Vernon Viehe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, October 09, 2002 12:42 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Flash Remoting (was: LONG time CF Supporter - > About ready to > dump CF! > > Matt, > > > it is > > impossible for one to build an application that using Flash Remoting > > with both CF and Java. > > This sounds like a great feature request, have you sent it to our > development team yet? > > http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/wishform?6213=23 > > Vernon Viehe > ColdFusion Community Manager > Developer Relations > Macromedia, Inc. > Online diary: http://vvmx.blogspot.com/ > > Macromedia DevCon 2002, October 27-30, Orlando, Florida > Architecting a New Internet Experience > Register today at www.macromedia.com/go/devcon2002 > > ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm

While I haven't used Remoting for Java to any great extent. Could you not operate two flash gateways? (CFMX and Java) Although even if it is possible it's kind of ridiculous from a cost perspective. If you buy CFMX for J2EE you should be able to remote to both CFMX and Java objects. Considering it's priced per processor I don't see that being much of a stretch for MM's product offering.

Flash Communication Server is a server (like a web server or an application server) that allows multiple Flash clients to shared objects and exchange text, images, video - for example you could write a multi-user video-conferencing application with it. Flash Remoting is technology that allows a Flash client to communicate 1-to-1 with either a ColdFusion server (built-in to CFMX), a JRun 4 server (built-in to JRun 4), other J2EE servers (Flash Remoting for J2EE) or a .NET server (Flash Remoting for .NET). > I have a project for a client coming up where the front end/UI needs > to be > done in Flash... and a "desktop" version of the app (data itself) > needs to > sych with the core web system upon request when it comes back "online".

Yes, that additional functionality would require the Flash Communication Server (as well as CFMX w/Flash Remoting).

Book Review: CFMX and Flash Integration - B.Forta and D.Baldwin & co.
Think this book has been discussed already on the list but...well I'm bored so I figured I give a little review in hopes that'll give a good notion as to what to expect. Overall. Excellent book. Well written and in an interestingly new format...hence the "reality" title. In a nutshell the book takes a handful of projects and runs through them as a "real world" scenario. From basic project planning and management to the design and coding. What this book is not! Anyone looking for a hardcore reference for either CFMX and/or FlashMX...this is not the book. While it does dip into specifics on occasion, the book assumes a certain skill level...guess that's why it says intermediate to advanced on the back. Who should buy it? CF developers looking to extend their skillset into the realm of rich clients. In my opinion, there are a few prerequisites though before diving into this book. (to avoid flash culture shock). A) Learn how to get around the Flash environment. Best place to start are the tutorials...you don't need to be an expert but a few weeks of tinkering with small projects should do the trick. B) Go through all the Flash MX / CF integration examples on DesDev FIRST. They're all straight forward and give you the required basics on the whole CF/Flash thing. You may still get a little lost on the Actionscript portion but for the most part it's approachable for a CF'er...All in all a Flash MX basics book would be a great primer. In conclusion, the format of the book is great because it provides solutions to a whack of obstacles you're most likely to run into when making your first rich client app...and more importantly how to tie them together. My only criticism is that I think it would have been nice to include a coding task-list on each chapter for easy reference. (e.g. Chapter 1: Covers authentication, form validation, custom skin component etc..)...Not the end of the world but I've been spoiled since the days of BF's classic Appendices. As well as some deeper detail on the more advanced "phase II" features mentioned after each project...maybe this is to make room for a second edition, who knows!

RE: Reading MSSQL 2000 FOR XML AUTO data
Tyler, I've done this successfully in CF 5 (not tried it in CFMX yet). There's a simple trick to it. The problem is that the column name (a uuid) has characters that are invalid as a CF variable. You can't output them without throwing an error. For example, an XML Auto query might return: XM_3jfa-343-bbb as the name of the column. CF will choke on the dashes in the variable name. However, you CAN determine the name of the column using the "queryname.columnname" syntax. You can aslo serialize the query into WDDX (don't ask me why THAT works) - so here's my kludgy work-around example: ..run the query SELECT * FROM myTable FOR XML AUTO ... only one column is returned so this statement gives you the offending string ...Serialize the data inot a WDDX string Replace the offending string with a valid CF variable name that represents the column of data.

RE: Can we help? (was RE: LONG time CF Supporter - About ready to dump CF!)
I personally think.. alot of the problems are due to making CFMX very backward compatible with older versions of CF. Why did MM claim CFMX backward compatible? Why not .NET Strategy? Again i think its the responsibility of developers to test their code on a totally different product(CFMX)..Load Test..etc. before going into production. Well MM should have already done this... and documented rules of new coding in RED rather than have developers waste time fighting issues. Hopefully we will see some better standards from MM.

RE: Problems with CFMX?
Rob, I get it that cfinclude is a pointer to other files - but I can't see that this is not relevant to CFMX (is it?) since it compiles the code into Java byte code. Does each file become a separate class file? - or does the whole request get compiled into a single class file? I'm having trouble reconciling what I know about how CFMX works internally with this idea. What if - for example - I did this: ... Inside the myIncludefile.cfm file I reference the "somevar" variable. How is this handled? Since there is an external dependency in the included file, is the file still compiled individually? Or is the whole request - root page and includ - compiled together. I find it hard to believe that each file is compiled separately as if it were a java class. I rather suspect that each unique sequence of files would be compiled as a separate class.

CFMX wipes session vars after Verity update?
Just had a curious glitch in an app (running CFMX with updater on my local WinXP Pro desktop): Using the developer tools interface I've built into my app, I went and created the Verity collection for indexing a directory of files. Fine. Then I selected the option to update (i.e. index) the collection. There was the usual pause while it indexed, then I was promptly thrown back to my login form. Apparently, my session vars no longer existed. The code I running was a plain CFINDEX: I don't know *for sure* that the session variables had gone - I've logged back in now and the indexing worked OK. But, to my eyes, it seemed that my session had just been wiped.

I'd start by removing the interval attribute -- it's not required and without it, the tag just flushes everything in the buffer at the point the flush is reached -- the interval is intended for something like this: #some query variables here# The idea being that the page will load faster overall if it flushes only after every 1kb of display instead of after every iteration of the loop, since each flush takes some time away from the CF thread which is processing the page. hth Isaac Certified Advanced ColdFusion 5 Developer www.turnkey.to 954-776-0046 > I am trying to flush a very small amount of data on mx but > don't seem to be > able to get the following to flush: > > > > Processing. > > > processing > > > I would like it to flush immeadiately--its a payment page > and I want to let > users know something is happening.

RE: 2nd question - Run MX as nobody? - Solution
Seems my email is acting wonky all of a sudden. Hopefully this hits. The problem you guys are running into is that the "nobody" user does not have a defined shell. You need to run CF as a user with a valid shell on solaris, solaris does not allow SU to define a shell for temporary command-running use like Linux. Therefore, simply create a user on the system with a valid shell, and set CF to run as that, and you'll be fine.

But, in the same breath the client is interested in future modules that allow utilize online communications, such as chat, streaming media, audio conferencing and even "application remote control" or the "multi-user cursors" that come as components of Flash Communication Server.

RE: Problems with CFMX?
Yes sometimes but sometimes it will just crap out all together. Not completely blank if you view source it would be a fully formed html page but that's it. In a support call with macromedia they actually recreated the problem inhouse and have identified the problem that I was having as a bug in Linux kernel & JVM -- see http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4650839.html and http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4654490.html. Not to say that I could make much sence out of those too links, I am not a java or linux kernal expert by a long shot. They are working on a fix. I did switch to the IBM jvm of my own accord and have had 2.5 days of up time which is a very good showing so far. My hopes will not up until I see something like 12 or 22 days of up time. The reason that I posted was to get more info about how large cfm pages cause problems mainly because we have a lot fo large cfm pages. I had told macromedia about the large files and they didn't make a big deal out of it. -d- >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/08/02 12:15PM >>> When you get the outofmemory errors, are your cfm pages displayed blank in the browser? ~~ Stephenie Hamilton Macromedia Certified ColdFusion Professional CFXHosting > |-Original Message- > |From: Devin Callaway [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > |Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 1:40 PM > |To: CF-Talk > |Subject: RE: Problems with CFMX? > | > | > |Could someone comment on the large .cfm files issue.

No problems... any idea what might cause that error? You probably need to specify the username/password in the Advanced Settings in the CF data source setup.

Vern will probably cringe but... Y'all could stop bashing MM and focus on helping us help you resolve problems. Let's stop the whole "CF sux! Macromedia sux! I'm going to .NET if you don't solve my problems *immediately*!" thing. I know it makes people feel better to vent a bit but... really... these recent threads are a bit much! Yes, there are clearly issues that need attention and some of the ones we're hearing about through the forums (but not through the official channels, I would note!) are hard to track down, hard to reproduce and hard to debug. People seem to have accepted as fact - and best practice - that you have to zealously lock all shared scope variable access in CF5 and earlier even though that was really to work around bugs in the server itself. Hopefully, people will find a similar acceptance for the new best practices we may all have to adopt for this new release of ColdFusion. And remember that best practices often change with each language / product version - try to think back to some of the earlier CF upgrades!

All of this is in the docs for CFFILE, though it can take some getting used to -- p.s. unfortunately the variables returned from cffile during an upload are not in a structure in CF 5 and prior, they're all just individual variables -- which stinks, but what can you do. :) Isaac Certified Advanced ColdFusion 5 Developer www.turnkey.to 954-776-0046 > I am trying to upload a file using CFFILE.

RE: LONG time CF Supporter - suggestion!!
My experience... I was having a nightmare of a time until the updater came out.. but since then, mx has been working great for me. I haven't had to reboot since I installed the updater. I was in the beta program, and by the end of the beta program, all of my code was working fine on my test machine, even under load testing, but when it went live on a high volume site - the nightmares started.. java database connector problems which stopped all web pages from displaying until a reboot - sometimes restarting services weren't enough... I went back to cf 5 for my old sites, but had to keep MX for a site I developed using the advanced features. Note - my test machine didn't have that problem, which means I couldn't even reproduce the problem using my own code. My point: no matter how hard we test in a beta program, until you go live in the real world, a lot of these problems don't pop up. The best to hope for is to be able to have them fixed quickly when they are found. Which brings me to my idea: Obviously, there are way too many messages in cf-talk for MM to respond to. How about when a problem pops up like this one, Michael puts up a poll to see how many people are affected and how severe a problem it is for them. Once it hits a certain level - say 100 people with a minor problem or 5 people with a major problem, a MM tech support agent is assigned to help fix it over this mailing list - so the people it affects can help supply the code and answers to help the tech support guy figure out what is going on and fix it? And we get feedback on how the fix is coming along.

I have been on lists in the past where I have made comments that I later regretted making because I did not read all the information and jumped too soon and I have apologized for that. I have seen other people be overly hostile and later realized they were wrong so they apologized. There's no harm in that. There are a lot of apologies made even on CF-Talk. Everything from simple, "Oops -- I read that wrong," to a more formal, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have jumped down your throat." It's really more of a courtesy than anything.

RE: Web services question from a beginner
John,
We've all spent '8 hours' getting to square one, so don't get discouraged.
Here's some code that accomplishes what you are after:
ws =
createObject("webservice","http://www.ejseinc.com/WeatherService/Service.asmx?WSDL";);
getLocation = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getLocation();
getForecast = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getForecast();
getTemprature = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getTemprature();
getFeelsLike = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getFeelsLike();
getVisibility = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getVisibility();
getPressure = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getPressure();
getDewPoint = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getDewPoint();
getUVIndex = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getUVIndex();
getHumidity = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getHumidity();
getWind = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getWind();
getReportedAt = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getReportedAt();
getLastUpdated = ws.getWeatherInfo(98102).getLastUpdated();
getLocation =#getLocation#
getForecast = #getForecast#
getTemprature = #getTemprature#
getFeelsLike = #getFeelsLike#
getVisibility = #getVisibility#
getPressure = #getPressure#
getDewPoint = #getDewPoint#
getUVIndex = #getUVIndex#
getHumidity = #getHumidity#
getWind = #getWind#
getReportedAt = #getReportedAt#
getLastUpdated = #getLastUpdated#
I am using cfscript because I feel that it is a more comfortable code to work with
webservices.
A big hint: do a cfdump on 'ws.getWeatherInfo(98102)'
I hope this helps, and thanks for using webservices and CFMX!

Hence this list. Well, Allaire actually grew to almost the same size at one point that Macromedia is today so the "David & Goliath" comparison doesn't hold water and, more to the point, the community was complaining about this exact, same problem with Allaire once it grew 'big'. It's not a Macromedia problem per se, it's a big-company problem: in order to fairly support a large community of users, you need to put in place procedures and layers so that engineering doesn't get swamped with end user emails and calls. Besides, several people have commented that Macromedia's involvement today is greater than Allaire's was before the merger.

Re: QUestion about Input File and CFFILE
Brian,
Here is the code I am using:
function parseFileName(theFile)
{
var start = -1;
while (theFile.value.indexOf("\\", start + 1) != -1)
{
start = theFile.value.indexOf("\\", start + 1);
}
FileUpload.action = FileUpload.action + theFile.value.substring(start+1,
theFile.value.length);
}
Select your file
Upload
Then in fileupload.cfm I have:
It is working for me. I hope this helps.
Take care,
Robert

Is that CFMX? > Or do It could be user code, configuration or CFMX. There have definitely been examples of code that worked-by-accident on CF5 that doesn't work on CFMX - is that a bug? Not really... if the old code was never supposed to work, that was a bug in *CF5* and perhaps the rewrite fixed it. Now, if you built your application on that bug, thinking it was 'valid', then you'll be hurting with CFMX. Examples of configuration (to some degree): - The multiple SQL statements issue is a data source setup issue (use ODBC Socket instead of Microsoft SQL Driver or whatever it's called). It just happened to work with a particular CF5 driver but it wasn't intentional (despite Ben's 'hints & tips'). Change configuration and it solves the problem. Bear in mind also that the JDBC drivers are *third-party*, not Macromedia-developed. - Virtual site setup on IIS. It doesn't work out of the box, you need to run specific configuration to make it work. When you run the Updater, this also seems to be not covered by the standard install and you have to do additional stuff. Is this a bug? I'd say no but some folks will disagree. Are there real CFMX bugs? Of course. Were there real CF5 bugs? Yes. And 4.52 bugs and 4.01 bugs and so on and so on. This is why it's so critical to isolate a repeatable test that exhibits the questionable behavior. I know that's not always easy but it's a fact of life. As Jesse says, if we can't reproduce it, we can't debug it and if we can't debug it, we can't fix it! Case in point: my team has hit the Apache 1.3.26 process death problem. We couldn't reproduce it reliably, even tho' it happened regularly. We spent a lot of time trying to nail it down. No joy. Apache 2.0.39 does not suffer from this problem. Our solution: upgrade to Apache 2.0.39 and implement the two-tier Apache system (documented in my blog). Another case in point: my team hit a CLOB-related problem with the standard CFMX Oracle driver. Again, no reproducible test case. We moved to the 9i Thin Client and hit a different problem. We tried the 9i OCI driver and the problem went away. Now we have to finish rewriting the piece of code that actually relies on the base driver (it's Java, ironically). > I pay to have MM tell me I need to re-write code? See above. If we documented the change and you call it as a bug then, yes, sure you'll get charged (think of it as an "RTFM Tax") but if we didn't document it and you call it as a bug, it's free per Debbie's email. > This "connection reset > by peer" JDBC socket error that's been troubling us (notice I did not > say > "bugging" :) could well be the result of some server setting or SQL > config > option we have overlooked that ODBC/CF 5 ignores, but JDBC looks for. > If > that turns out to be the case, would MM charge for that? I'm with Vern on this - my feeling is that if you have to use one driver over another in order to solve this and WE DIDN'T DOCUMENT THAT, then it's a 'bug' of sorts and it should be free.
