RE: DSN-less connection to a CSV file?

2002-10-28 Thread Michael Kear
Well I have the CFX_CSVtoQuery  tag,  I've installed it, and I can read in
comma delimited text files but not these CSV files I needed to use in the
first place.  It reads the file but says zero rows processed.  When I open
the .csv file in my trusty UltraEdit, it asks if I want to convert it to DOS
format, so I took a look at the .csv file in hex and the line endings only
have 0A not  0D 0A.  (in other words a line feed, not carriage return line
feed)   So I think the tag only recognises the file as a single line.

Anyone know what I can do about this?   I can't have the information
supplier make any change to the files - its' created automatically and FTP'd
into our site anew every day.

Cheers,

IF you're interested here's some extra data - the first few lines of one of
the files concerned (can't post more for copyright reasons), plus the code
I'm trying to use to access it.

First the file:

Cash Management Accounts - $1,000.00
"Institution Name","Account/Product Name","Effective Rate","Nominal
Rate","Website Link","Customer Service Phone"
"Institution Number One","Youbeauty
Account",4.8025,4.70,"http://www.institutionone.com.au","1800-666-666";
"Institution number two","Cash Management
Account",4.3337,4.25,"http://www.institutiontwo.com.au","1800-555-555";


Now the code:






Rows Read: #CSV_RowsProcessed#
Bad Rows: #CSV_BadRows#
ReachedEOF:   #CSV_ReachedEOF#
StartRow: #CSV_StartRow#
  



And this results in a page that shows the following:

Rows Read: 0
Bad Rows:
ReachedEOF: YES
StartRow: 1

Brook,

Yes, yes, yes, and yes. ;-)

Although, I'm not sure about deleting the connection. When I've used it I've
never considered or addressed this. Do you need to? D'uh I dunno.

Not sure if you're still in need... I wrote a CustomTag at work to do a 
nested tree in a select form field. If you want, I'll toss it your way 
tomorrow (Tuesday) morning when I get to work. You can pass a few things

RE: DSN-less connection to a CSV file?

2002-10-28 Thread brook
Mathew,

So this allows you to query the CSV directly? Would this method work for 
importing data into an existing table by looping over the resulting query 
and doing the insert?  Can you then delete the file and the connection?

If the csv file contained field names in  the first row, is this what you 
get back as columns?

RE: [OT] FlashCom Server High CPU Utilization

2002-10-28 Thread Anthony Wong
opps .. i need to add something. This high utilization only occurs when i
connect my webcam to the flash comm server. Else, it's working fine even
with the chat. I think this issue is quite different from Joachem's post
earlier with regards to chat.asc which had to be re-written. I find patching
the communicationcomponents from MM site solves the problem and along you'll
get the CommsComponent for FlashMX.

Someone took away my web cam now and i couldn't test exactly which service
that gives me such a high CPU. I reckon it could be FlashCom.exe service.
Otherwise, others are functioning normally.

thanks.

I'm trying out Flash Comm on my laptop and noticed that the CPU utilization
level stays above 95% average all the time when the app is running off the
browser.
Might have occasional dip but it didn't last for long as it shoots up right
away. When the browser is closed, the CPU simply goes back to normal (1-3%)

Here's my config:

Pentium III 500
Windows 2000
IE 5.5 SP2
256 MB RAM (I read that's the minimum for Flash Comm)
CFMX server service is off

Anyone else experianced the same thing? It's burning my laptop too. I can
feel the heat through the keyboard while running the flash comm app even for
a short period of time.

interested to know what the Persist Security Info parameter does.  I presume
that is what makes the server hold on to the connection or not but it'd be
nice to be able to know for sure.

The company that I am working for, is periodically, bombarded with the
following error message:

Coldfusion Error Type - DATABASE
Coldfusion Message - Oracle Error Code = 0
Timeout while obtaining an Oracle connection lock

They are running CF 5 with Oracle 8i on the backend and are using the native
drivers to connect to Oracle.  I have searched high and low, but have not
been able to find a definitive solution.  Has anyone run into this error and
found a solution?

DSN-less connection to a CSV file?

2002-10-28 Thread Michael Kear
I have an information provider FTP'ing a series of .csv files into my server
every night, and I need to use these files to create dynamic tables for
users.   Since they are updated every day, I can't have them locked and in
use when the provider's automatic ftp dumps them into my site.

So what I wanted to do was set my calculator up so that when my site user
calls the information, the page connects to the .csv table, does the query
then disconnects again.

Is this (a) possible?  (b) the best way to access (only read - not write or
update) the .csv files so that they are not locked when the ftp program
comes to drop new ones on the server?   If so, can someone please give me
the code to connect to the .csv file?

(we're using CF5)   There's no documentation at all about dsnless connection
in the docs, and I haven't been able to find any thing in the  archives of
this list or any other.

RE: Replacement for CFX_fMAKETREE

Hi Mike,

Unfortunately that's just a typo, made while I was pasting code and
rearranging it for the msg.

Same error w/the code below (I renamed the tag to match up w/my own
filing system).  I'm using CF 4.5.1SP2.  Is that an issue, I wonder?
The tag blows up on Line 11, which is the cfparam for the query var.


SELECT 
cm_topics.ID AS ItemID,
cm_topics.ParentID AS ParentItemID
FROM cm_topics
WHERE 0=0



#GotEm.ItemID#_#GotEm.ItemID#, #GotEm.MakeTreeSortLevel#

Matt, what I can see is your query nmae and query output name are different.



Query="myQuery"

Maybe I'm mis-reading the code and I don't know CFX-Maketree but I think
those names should be the same.

Replacement for CFX_fMAKETREE

If I instead use QueryNew, QuerySetCell etc. to build a query and try and feed the

Well, even with enforced locking turned on it does NOT throw an error

We do not use any session vars and only a handful of application variables

Actually, you're incorrect about this.  Application.cfm and OnRequestEnd.cfm
are respectively called at the beginning and end of a REQUEST, not an
INCLUDE.  They are not called every time a new CFM file is used internally
(i.e., by inclusion via CFINCLUDE, CFMODULE, UDF, CFC, etc.).

You can actually make a very good argument for including headers and footers
from Application.cfm and OnRequestEnd.cfm instead of having to repeat the
code at the top and bottom of every file.  For example, all of the extra
code placements can result in bugs (typos, etc.).  Or, what if you change
the filename or path to the included files?  With App.cfm, you change the
path/filename in one place.  Granted you can do a global search and replace,
but the point is, there are benefits to including the global files in the
App.cfm et al files.

Even more so, BTW, versus putting it in a Custom Tag.  Custom Tags require
extra overhead for processing.

I might be misreading you, but this doesn't seem right. Application.cfm only
gets called for every HTTP request, not for every file processed by the
server during that request.

I do agree that it's probably not best to use it for headers and
OnRequestEnd.cfm as a footer, though. It seems to be one of the first
"hints", even in good CF books, regarding these tags, and it's not a great
idea. For me, I use index.cfm as a gateway to every page in my app, and it
starts with a DOCTYPE and ends with . It's the bare template for
every actual HTML page that gets generated. Any output in Application.cfm or
OnRequestEnd.cfm would be outside the document - not good!

Re: [OT] FlashCom Server crashes (the Community Suite Broadcast) [resolved?]

2002-10-28 Thread Jochem van Dieten
First of all, thanx for all the response (including the off-list 
response from Macromedia).

It turns out I hadn't applied one fix from the release notes
http://www.macromedia.com/support/flashcom/releasenotes/mx/rn_mx.html
Apparently this can cause a lockup of a shared file object when there 
are a lot of people chatting, which would cause FlashCom to crash.

A crash like that has happened twice, once on Saturday during testing, 
once earlier today. The first time nothing really bad happened, server 
was restarted and everything worked again. But today, during the crash 
the FCChat.chat_fc.history.fso file was damaged. This resulted in 
FlashCom crashing whenever 6 lines were entered in the chat (I presume 
because after 6 lines the log cache is flushed to the disk). After 
renaming the log file FlashCom stayed up. So about an hour ago I 
restarted the service for, hopefully, the last time to implement all the 
suggested fixes and rthe change from the release notes. Since then it 
has been stable, and I hope it will remain that way.

Re: Screwy Excel Query Result

2002-10-28 Thread Steven Durette
Ian,

I have seen this behavior before.

It seems that sometimes when you use excel even if you declare a field text
and you then enter a number into it excel will convert it to a number
instead!  Before I get flamed stating that this doesn't happen, it has
happened to me.  The easiest way to fix from your point of view should be
that when you call in the zip column add some code to check for the length
of the zip and if it is less than 5 characters long, keep adding zeros to
the beginning until it is 5 characters long.

If this were sql I could come up with some really slick code to do the
trick.  I usually don't do this kind of stuff directly from CF.  Normally I
would pull the data into my SQL server and work on it that way.

RE: CFMX & med-high traffic sites

2002-10-28 Thread Brook Davies
Well it's honestly hard to say because my server has had issues under a 
light load and medium load. This could be between 5,000 page views per day 
to 20,000 page views (all CF). There are definitely issues. Thats why I 
posted. I want to see if any body is having great success with med-high 
traffic. Most others in the forum, mentioned in the previous post, seem to 
think the server crashes are attributed to load. I'm not so sure any more 
after a strange crash yesterday.

For me, and I think the others in the thread, the symptoms are always the 
number of running requests growing until the queued requests also starts to 
grow and this just goes on until the server completely stops server cfm pages.

I've cut and pasted something I posted to the forums this morning. This is 
what happened when the server crashed yesterday. On my day off...

I was uploading some new pages that had been tested on the development 
server and worked fine. The pages were very, very short and basic pages 
with not a single query or anything more advanced than a . The 
page was a feature tour for the publicly accessible part of our site, and 
it only contains an image and a next | back button. After uploading it I 
tried stepping through the tour using the next back button. Every time I 
got to the 4th slide, it would not return anything and would just spin (the 
browser). I tried other pages on the site and everything worked fine. But, 
each time I went back to this particular page (which is an EXACT duplicate 
of the previous slide only with a new pageID passed to it), it hung. After 
trying this about 10 times and not yet realizing that the threads were 
never dying on the server, the server was officially dead. All of the 
available threads were filled and the queued requests began to grow. The 
time out unresponsive threads setting in the cf administrator does not 
always work for some reason.

Re: Application Framework problem

2002-10-28 Thread Patti G. L. Hall
No, It's not.  Though you may be keeping your code in includes, you're still
using Application.cfm and onrequestend.cfm to call the includes.  You might
as well be writing the code directly to application.cfm and
onrequestend.cfm, because coldfusion processes the contents of an include AS
IF THEY BELONG IN THE PAGE THAT CALLS THEM (sorry for the shouting, it was
for emphasis only). So, after the server has done its work, calling the
includes from these pages amounts to the same thing.

What you need to do, in order to be consistent with how application.cfm and
onrequestend.cfm are supposed to be used, is to write a custom tag that
contains your header and your footer and call the tag specifically around
all of your display templates.


For example:

Mylookandfeel_customtag.cfm

















Myactualpage.cfm


This is the actual code on my page.  Yay, aren't I all pretty and
formatted!



Obviously this is just a toy example, but it illustrates the point. You
store the formatting in mylookandfeel_customtaglcfm.  You split the look in
feel in half, determining where the body of the page will lie and everything
above that point is in the fist case statement while everything below that
point lies in the second case statement.

On the page where your acutual content lies, you use a cfmodule tag to call
the wrapper.  Make sure the path you use in the template attribute is
correct.  In my little "toy" example I assume that I've saved the custom tag
in the same directory as the page that will call it.  This may not be the
best site design, of course.  If you store your tags in a separate central
location, use a coldfusion mapping to create a path to the folder where it's
located and call the mapping in the template attribute.


Now you may ask, why is it such a bad, horrible thing to use application.cfm
and onrequestend.cfm like you are?  After all, it's so much easier to put
the header and footer includes there ONCE rather than having to specifically
call that pesky custom tag everything you want to put a table and some
buttons around things.

Well, the thing is if you put that kind of code in application.cfm, you'll
be calling it EVERY time youc all ANY template.

For example, lets say that in your page you are calling a couple of
includes... Maybe one has a udf library.  Maybe another has a whole bunch of
queries.  Maybe another has a calendar or something reusable like that.  In
that case you will be calling application.cfm 4 times... Not just once,
because every time one of those includes gets called, the application.cfm
file is run first.  All The Time.

You can imagine how horrible the resulting page would look if you ended up
with four headers all nested inside one another.

This is kind of an exaggeration, but I hope it illustrated the point as to
why you never put anything other that application *logic* in an
application.cfm or onrequestend.cfm.  It's a gross abuse of the system and
before long, as soon as your sites get any kind of complexity to them, it
will cause many more headaches that it seems to solve.

Not a sermon... Just a ... Well... Ok, maybe it was a sermon.

Re: What in the world is this?

2002-10-28 Thread Adam Churvis
I just posted this to the forum thread on this topic:
---

Folks,

It seems like this continues to be a problem, so I thought I would share a
couple of ideas on where the underlying problem might be.  While this won't
get
any of you _directly_ closer to solving your problems, it might be of some
help
to Macromedia in narrowing down the problem.

Understand that this is all just theory offered to try and assist an
eventual
solution, so please don't attack me if I'm off base.  Here goes...

1) The client.properties file is performing the same function as an Oracle
Sequence object declared with CACHE = 100.  This is a very efficient model
for
high transaction systems, as the requester simply queries a lightweight
object
pinned in memory that simply gets the next pre-cached value from an array,
increments the index into the array, checks if the new index value is equal
to
the CACHE value (or directly tests the issued value against the value at the
end
of the array), and if so updates the persistent "placeholder" for the
sequence
value, which is in the form of a text file.

2) I assume that the LastID is "forward-looking" to the beginning of the
next
sequence series being cached, rather than "backward-looking" to the start of
the
current sequence series cached, since after a restart the mechanism must
enable
CFMX to pick right up where it left off without having to check anything
other
than this one persistent file.  Anything else would cause overlapping values
to
be issued from the sequence, which would in turn overlap CFMX client IDs and
throw everything off.

3) Since the sequence object pinned in memory must modify internal values
every
time it is called, all access to it would be synchronized through an
exclusive
lock on the object.  If the system must suffer the mechanical bottleneck of
an
exclusive lock with each request, it must do so in the least
resource-intensive
manner possible.  This is the main reason why this whole
client.properties/sequence object mechanism exists in the first place: to
prevent the performance bottleneck that would occur if the system had to
exclusively lock and manipulate a file each time an ID request was made.  So
instead, CFMX just locks an existing object in memory that already contains
100
requests' worth of data and one simple index value that must be modified.
Simultaneous requests of the object are queued, but not for very long (in
terms
of nanoseconds).  Except for the request that gets the last value in the
array,
as this triggers the modification of the client.properties file.

4) Because access to the client.properties file is managed by the OS,
OS-level
mutex objects (locks) handle sequential I/O from this file, which is
certainly
slower than a mutex on an object pinned in memory.  If CFMX has a problem
with
its "acquire lock/read file/write file/release lock" procedure on the
client.properties file, then that would cause one of two things: either an
empty
client.properties file, or an unchanged client.properties file.

5) This is where their internal exception handling model comes into play,
because what do you do if the modified file cannot be written to disk?  What
if
CFMX couldn't acquire an exclusive lock in the time Macromedia's programmers
allotted?  Everything pivots on the two critical steps of acquiring an
exclusive
file lock and writing a properly-formatted file while the lock is in place.
Keep this in mind as we discuss the subject further.

6) There is an anomaly in the system that causes the ID to return a value
that
is not one but _two_ more than the previous issued value.  This makes me
focus
on the exact mechanism used to trigger the modification of
client.properties.
Is the test a match of the index value to the size of the array, or is it a
match of the value retrieved to the last value in the array?  If the former,
this anomaly will cause some of the next batch of sequence values issued by
the
object to overlap those it had already issued from the previous batch.  If
the
latter, we need to ask another question: is the test an equality test, or a
"greater than or equal to" test.  If a strict equality test, this anomaly
might
cause the test to sometimes fail.  What happens to the next ID request after
this "end of array" test fails?  Is the result a NULL value, perhaps?

7) So now we're back to updating client.properties.  With what value?  If I
were
the engineer, I wouldn't take the time to read the file, parse the contents,
extract the string containing the LastID value, convert it to an integer,
and
increment it.  I would simply take the value I have in hand (issued by the
object), increment that by 100, construct the new string contents of the
client.properties file, and overwrite the file.  So, if this issued value is
NULL, and you try to concatenate that NULL value with any other value, the
result will be NULL, right?  So the file that is written to disk (if not
checked
for empty content) is empty.

8) Or what if an error _is_ th

Re: Cached Queries

2002-10-28 Thread jon hall
Nothing wrong with a cfc having access to persistent data...I'd say an
app variable is the best way to do this. Just make the cfc test to see
if 24 hours have passed between refreshes. Application variables
aren't the only way to make data persist...you could use a db, or the
filesystem.

Some skeleton code I did for something similar in CF5.

















If doupdate equals one, run your query, otherwise don't. I can imagine
putting the above check in the constructor code, and setting a
obj.doupdate property...

RE: CFMX & med-high traffic sites

2002-10-28 Thread Rob Rohan
Hi Brook,

I was reading your posts about the server crashing and the missing client
variables. What kind of load is your server under right now?

We are in the process of moving to MX and are using it on our development
server only. There are 4-5 of us hitting it every day, making code changes,
testing, etc. Our server has been up for a couple weeks now with no problems
(we had missing client variables, but that was an application tag problem -
which I already offered to you as a suggestion for your problem).

We have a ridiculously light load, but your posts have us a bit nervous as
our live site gets a lot of hits. If you could, would you give us an idea of
what kind of load we can expect the severs to barf under - if we get the
same problem?

Thanks
Rob

RE: Application Framework problem

2002-10-28 Thread Rick H Kennerly
|o| your development in due course. You might not want to put your
|o| header and
|o| footer on application.cfm and onrequestend.cfm respectively. Though it
|o| works, its not meant to put templates or any visual display
|o| items. It's not
|o| a standard practice either.
|o|

Guess I didn't make it clear, or atleast don't understand.

the files header.cfm and footer.cfm are actually called by CFINCLUDE in the
Application.cfm and OnRequestEnd.cfm.  The graphic elements are not actually
in the Application file.  Is still not a good idea?  I'd gotten the idea to
that from a guide I was reading.

OT Tracking a CFMX bug

2002-10-28 Thread Dick Applebaum
I have a situation where i create and save a simple cfm template, then 
access it with a browser

The following takes place:

1) the template is parsed

2) the Java source is generated

3) the .java file is saved.

4) I get an error before the.class file is saved

The error is below -- just a single line stack trace.

The question: How do I determine what portion of CFMX is in control 
when the error occurs?


TIA

Re: Cached Queries

2002-10-28 Thread Byron M
The problem seems to be that none of the query information is available
until the line in the code where the cfquery statement is.  Therefore, I
can't figure out a good way to skip over all the code.

I would use an application variable to flag weather the query is current
cached or not, and the time since it was first cached, but all this code is
in a .cfc and I want to keep it portable as possible.

Lee, when I run this bat file, the cfserver continues to respond and 
service requests but if I look in the services control panel, it says that

Cached Queries

2002-10-28 Thread Byron M
I have a bunch of code that I don't want to execute if a query is cached.

I tried this


... whole lotta code, then the query occurs



... skip all that code


and it still doesn't seem to skip over the code.

Basically all the code does some cfhttp calls and creates a query, which I
then do a query of a query and cache that one.  I only need all the code to
run once a day (because it takes some time).  I don't want it to run every
call to the page.

I guess the question is, is there some variable in the server scope that
lists the names of the cached queries?

fyi, make sure you set the app to your connection setting (it defaults
to modem). there is a drop down box at the top that lets you do this.

i believe this was all done with the flash communication server
components, so it may have required no actionscript code (i am not 100%
sure how they implimented it though).

We seem to be making progress. More testing revealed that the server 
consistently went down after 6 lines were entered in the chat 
application. So I got the hunch that some history file was corrupted. 
After renaming the old history files, it stays up longer now.

This sounds suspiciously like some CFMAIL code was borrowed .

GROUP BY Clause and Aggregate Functions

2002-10-28 Thread Cedric Villat
Here is my query:


SELECT MAX(Th.dateReceived) AS dateReceived, T.ticketID, Q.queueID,
Q.queueName, TS.statusName
FROM((Tickets T
LEFT JOIN Queues Q
ON T.queue = Q.queueID)
LEFT JOIN ticketStatus TS
ON T.status = TS.statusID)
LEFT JOIN threads Th
ON T.ticketID = Th.ticketID
WHERET.ticketID >= 1 AND
T.ticketID <= 400 AND
T.owner <> 0 AND
(TS.statusName = 'New' OR TS.statusName = 'Open')
ORDER BY T.priority desc, T.ticketID



This works as is without the MAX(Th.dateReceived) select. When I include
that I get the dreaded "Column 'Q.queueID' is invalid in the select list
because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY
clause." If I include all the other fields in the GROUP BY clause, I get:

"The text, ntext, and image data types cannot be compared or sorted, except
when using IS NULL or LIKE operator."

The field in question is the T.Subject field. Is there anyway of performing
this query? Any help is appreciated.

Hello,
 
I'm writing a web application that uses a WebService for a weather feed

of some database data. The site loads quickly except for the page
calling these two functions and I'd like to put up some kind of loading
screen (x% completed) maybe using FLASH or whatever ... just so I can
incrementally show the status to the user so they don't think it's
broken and keep clicking "HOME" over and over.
 
Anyone have any suggestions or ideas how to do something like this?

Hi all,

I am having a bit of a problem with FlashCom Server. Default server 
install on Win2K SP3, running the sample_panel_presentation example

just maybe 5 lines of chatting amongst 2 or 3 participants in about 2

Any suggestions? Are there any updates available that I missed? Problems

OT: A Developer that owns a Science Site

2002-10-28 Thread Dowdell, Jason G
Hi Guys,

This is off topic but, a while back one of the guys responding to a question
posted here owned a science website.  At least I think it was a science
website.  As I remember it had articles and news about the scientific
community.
He ran the site himself but did offer some advertising options with detailed
demographic data on his users.  If anyone knows the url to this site I'd 
appreciate it.

Sorry for the OT post.

RE: ie mac problem?

2002-10-28 Thread Kevin Graeme
This is a common problem. I can't recall all the permutations, but yes IE on
the Mac will drop form data.

One way around it is to set all the form variables into a structure. Then
when the user goes anywhere, the structure data either exists or doesn't. If
they come back to the form and there is data in their structure, then
prefill the form with that data.

Hello,
 
I'm writing a web application that uses a WebService for a weather feed
and that is also, on the same template, generating a chart using CFCHART
of some database data. The site loads quickly except for the page
calling these two functions and I'd like to put up some kind of loading
screen (x% completed) maybe using FLASH or whatever ... just so I can
incrementally show the status to the user so they don't think it's
broken and keep clicking "HOME" over and over.
 
Anyone have any suggestions or ideas how to do something like this?

Re: db query problem

2002-10-28 Thread Gyrus
It's confusing to see what you're trying to acheive because you can't tell
from the query code you posted which fields refer to which table. It would
help if you assigned table aliases, e.g.

SELECT a.field, b.field
FROM tableA a, tableB b

and posted the code again.

Beyond that, maybe UNION would do the trick?


 SELECT mls, type, asking_price, address, city, state, zip
 FROM Commercial
 WHERE listing_office #Request.App.Idx# AND agent = '#Request.User.Idx#'
 UNION
 SELECT mls, type, asking_price, address, city, state, zip
 FROM Multi_Family
 WHERE listing_office #Request.App.Idx# AND agent = '#Request.User.Idx#'
 UNION
 SELECT mls, type, asking_price, address, city, state, zip
 FROM Land
 WHERE listing_office #Request.App.Idx# AND agent = '#Request.User.Idx#'


UNION cobbles all SELECT statements together, as long as each has the same
fields. Check documentation depending on your DB.

We have a form that people submit information, after submitting the info
we confirm the info back to the user. If the user is on IE on the Mac
and clicks back enough times to get to our homepage then clicks forward
to go back to the confirmation page all of the values are missing. It
appears that when IE goes from an SSL (input and confirmation) site to
