Known MX bug or have I found one? URL.threadID in CFLOCATION
I'm in the unenviable position of trying to get the forum system from www.stickshiftsolutions.com to work on MX. (It's for my brother's racing site, www.grapeaperacing.com). I'm not pleased with it (many bugs, some outright omissions and really poor, I think, code). However the thing that I just struggled with doesn't seem to be the fault of the author. There's a CFLOCATION formatted as: cflocation url=thread.cfm?tID=#Form.threadID#forumID=#URL.forumID#confID=#url.co nfID# addtoken=No Which results in something like: http://www.grapeaperacing.com/GrapeApeRacing/OpenForums/thread.cfm?threa dId=165forumID=21confID=1 The weird thing is that this link produces a completely blank page - as if the browser was never given a response (you can't éven view source - it's just nothing). I tried passing the parameter with no variables (just copy/paste the actual URL) and this completely fails in the same way. However if you remove the threadID parameter the Cflocation works (you get an error, but at least you get something!) Add it in, blank page, remove it - error page (correct). Again this was even with a hardcoded value and even if the parameter was alone on the line. It happens only with a CFLOCATION. Now for the fun part. Take ANY CFLOCATION and add threadID=1 (or any number) to it and it seems to have the same behavior. I've tried this on the two MX servers that I have and both showed the same behavior. It doesn't exhibit the behavior on 4.5. Is this old news? By the way. What I did to fix this was change the param to TID and add the following line of code in the page: cfif IsDefined(URL.TID)cfset URL.threadID = URL.TID/cfif Not pretty but it works and means that I don't have rewrite any more of this app. Jim Davis ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Thanks for the test. The pasted threadID link worked some of the time, but the tID should always work (thats the fix).

Re: Please help me achieve this with CF and Coldfusion please
Hi Bob Thanks that would be great if you could show me an example if I could see an example. Was your code generated from your database table like the one at webtricks? The three related selects I have used and although very good, I would rather use this approach as only one table can be used where in the three selects related related you need 3 tables to populate each select. Also you get a lot of unnecessary JavaScript in the final code as you may not be using all of the features. - Original Message - From: Bob Haroche [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 4:23 PM Subject: Re: Please help me achieve this with CF and Coldfusion please I am using a piece of code for 2 related selects shown below.

Is Cold Fusion REALLY multi threaded?
Please, someone tell me that there is a configuration option I have wrong. If I execute a killer query (one that takes, say 2 mins for the database to return the result set) from a coldfusion page, then all other cold fusion users are left hanging until the query has returned it's result set.. If, however, I execute the same query from the database client, it still takes the same amount of time to return the result set, but has no discernable effect on the response times of the coldfusion users. This suggests to me that CF only executes one DB query at a time - please tell me I'm wrong. This also explains why our system response times are so lame when there are more than about 20 people on line For the record, the applicable CF Admin settings ara: - Single Threading: not checked - Variable Scope Lock settings: all set to no automatic checking or locking Is there anything else I need to set?

Not sure I'm totally understanding problem, but sounds like you may be trying to use some settings that apply to all the *sites*, such as for a parent business. Since you are defining application as unique to each site, don't think you can mix parent and child in application variables. In this dynamically-set application, all is tied to the BusinessID. To accomplish what I think you're trying to do, I'd suggest you include your *common* variables as part of the application. In a similar situation, I do the followinig: 1. Have a script on application.cfm to get the appropriate BusinessID. 2. Run a series of queries and/or other routines to set up an application structure for site settings. This can include some portions that are global (will be same for all sites under this parent app) and some/most that will be unique to the called site. (I've not done this, but guess you could have a couple levels: application.stSettings.Global and application.stSettings.Specific, such as application.stSettings.Global.InfoEmail; application.stSettings.Specific.BusEmail) (I even cache some of the larger queries so the routine is faster the few times it is needed.) 3. In application.cfm, if the application.stSettings exists and is a structure, duplicate the application.stSettings into request scope. If not, run the earlier #2 routine and duplicate to request scope. 4. All the queries in establishing the settings structure most likely will only be run once. After that, since the application structure does exist, what is run with each page call--I think--is just the duplication of that app structure to request. 5. Note: need a method that will rerun the template that sets the application structure anytime you change any of the global or site-specific information, so that app structure is always current. 6. Now all your settings variables are available on any page, called through the request.stSettings sturcture. For info on how this site works, contact #request.stSettings.Global.InfoEmail# Contact MyBusiness at #request.stSettings.Specific.BusEmail# I've tried to extrapolate what I've done in something similar to what I think you're trying to do. Don't know that all is totally correct, but should get you on a workable road. As with most such things, there are probably several ways to accomplish the goal. I guess you could have two structures: one that is for the global stuff and one for the unique, but the global would still have to be tied to the specific site application. application/request.stGlobSets and application/request.stSpecificSets. Then on output you just call whichever applies. Seems though that makes sense just to make them all part of one settings structure.

Re: Is Cold Fusion REALLY multi Threaded?
Stephen Richards wrote: Limit connections is not checked, however the value is 0. OK, next step is to check the number of database connections you actually have. Easiest is if you are only using one datasource on that particular server, just run a netstat and check the number of TCP connections to port 5423. Else, start working from the database side, use the standard tools to determine the number of backends and their status. Alsomake sure you are not running with a default transaction level of serializable, which would make all transactions run pretty much after eachother.

Re: CFX_Image - Quality of images not good when rotating
Man, this is the never-ending, and ever-recurring, thread...but I have to try and ask a summarizing question, because after all these posts and replies I still don't have a solution to my personal problems. The perfect tag/function I'm looking for needs to be able to: 1) Get dimensions from an image (Height, Width, Size, etc.) 2) Be able to resize a GIF or JPEG with (almost) the same quality as PhotoShop 3) Plug and play ability with no need to configure anything in CF Administrator (So a Java JAR would probably be best) 4) Adding text or a watermark would be icing on the cake, but not necessary And that's about it. The closest I'm come is ImageJ (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/) using some of www.benorama.com implementations along with some edits. I can just place the JAR file in the same directory and access it there, but the quality on JPEGs is not so good.

Re: Please help me achieve this with CF and Javascrip please
I have used the three select related tag and agreed it works quite well,
nate has done a good job.
However there is a lot of code bloat with that tag i.e. there is a lot of
javascript product that you do not use, and the control you have over the
page is not as great as if the webtricks version had 3 selects as you can
see exactly what is going on.
Also with the three selects tag you need 3 seperate tables to speicfy each
select value, where as the other approach will let you get away with 1 table
which is what I have to work with.

RE: Is Coldfusion REALLY multi threaded?
OK, next step is to check the number of database connections you actually have. Easiest is if you are only using one datasource on that particular server, just run a netstat and check the number of TCP connections to port 5423. Else, start working from the database side, use the standard tools to determine the number of backends and their status. Alsomake sure you are not running with a default transaction level of serializable, which would make all transactions run pretty much after eachother. We have 24 connections at the moment, as reported by the database. (can't use netstat because the CF server is running on the same machine as the database, so it's a unix socket rather than port 5423. Not running with serializable transaction level. - Stephen Richards 020 7903 3226 --
Re: Please help me achieve this with CF and Javascrip please
I was more suggesting that you could learn from the code in the
ThreeSelects tag and apply it to what you have now. I initially looked
at slimming the code down and then decided it would be good to go stock.
I also have a small amount of HTML to put between the selects for my use.
As for the driving query, you don't need three separate tables. You
need better SQL in your select for the query. What's the query that
you're using for driving your selects?

So from what has been suggested. Yes I have a field called views in the documents (itdocs) table. When they add the document through a html form there is a select box field with 3 options the user has to select option value=teamaAvailable to Team A/option option value=teambAvailable to Team B/option option value=allAvailable to Everybody/option The value they select populates the views field in the documents (itdocs) table. When you state you can set up a session variable. Where would this value come from? In the user table holding their profile information there is a field called division. This contains either Teama or Teamb for each user. So could this be used? And is the above the most efficient way of creating as Ben Forta calls it Explicit Personalization ?? or are there better more elegant approaches of achieving the above?

RE: Is Coldfusion REALLY multi threaded?
..with regards to the long query...we have an app that has several queries that run quite long, a couple in the 3 or 4 minute range. These do not bring my CF server to a halt at all. We average almost 200 users per hour on busy days on this box. Have a look at all your CFAdmin settings. You may need to raise the 'limit simultaneous requests'. We have it set to 40 for a four proc machine. I have found through research and experience that if your app is very DB intense, raising this helps. Also look at lowering the 'restart at x unresponsive requests' We have it set at 5. Also make sure you have 'timeout requests after x seconds' checked and set reasonably. note that my experiences are with winblows boxen. on Linux boxen, this may very.

Yes, I agree with you, we are denormalizing like mad and retuning the database, and am confident that we will get the two minute query down to something more manageable. yes, the CPU maxes out at 99.9% while the query is executing. However, that doesn't alter the fact, that if the query is executed from a CF page, then all other CF activity comes to a halt; if it is executed from the db client command line, then other CF activity (includeing Db accesses) work just dandy. - Stephen Richards 020 7903 3226 -- - Original Message - From: S V [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 3:11 PM Subject: Re: Is Cold Fusion REALLY multi threaded?

That is interesting. However, I wonder just what effect it will have in this case, because the long page is executing a SERIES of 6 long queries (it is producing a page of stats), and all CF activity stops until all six queries have been executed. If the blockfactor was going to release the CF server to work on something else for a while, you would also expect a change from one query to another, no?

Re: deadlock errors
This has nothing to do with CF, so locking your queries and sp calls won't help you. The deadlocks are probably occuring because a user is trying to read at the same time someone else is trying to write, or vice versa, or two people are trying to write to the same record at the same time, etc, etc. If you're really lazy, use SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE in your sp calls, etc. This entails a performance hit however.

This is classic me. I've promised myself into a corner and demoed something hard coded without thinking about how to construct an elegant query to feed it in production-mode via a database. Query 1. 5 separate ads that run for a week each and rotate each Monday morning. I need to run ad 1 for a week, then ad 2 for a week, ad 5 for a week, and then recycle to ad 1 for a week again. These are actually meal menus that progress forward a week with each cycle. Query 2. I need to feed a scroller with this week information from a db with the table columns itemdate, itemdetail. I've thought of some kluges (particularly for number 2, which has resulted in some truly epic, Byzantine queries), but I'd like something elegant. Any ideas?

RE: Is Cold Fusion REALLY multi threaded?
Subject: Is Cold Fusion REALLY multi threaded? Yes, it really is. If I execute a killer query (one that takes, say 2 mins for the database to return the result set) from a coldfusion page, then all other cold fusion users are left hanging until the query has returned it's result set.. If, however, I execute the same query from the database client, it still takes the same amount of time to return the result set, but has no discernable effect on the response times of the coldfusion users. This suggests to me that CF only executes one DB query at a time - please tell me I'm wrong. This also explains why our system response times are so lame when there are more than about 20 people on line. This may be a problem with your specific database drivers. I'm not especially familiar with PostgreSQL, but I've seen similar things in the (relatively distant) past with Oracle ODBC drivers - they were essentially single-threaded, so all queries were queued - which, as you've discovered, is very bad for performance!

RE: Is Coldfusion REALLY multi threaded?
At the moment, limit simultaneous requests is not ticked - perhaps I should and set it to 40. I'll try it and let you know. Setting it to forty would probably not be an especially good idea - that's an extremely high value. CF is designed to take advantage of queuing requests - some number get simultaneously processed and the rest go into a queue, and are serviced when free threads are available for them. This is supposed to be faster than simply processing all the requests at once (at least in Windows) and it's been my experience that it is, in fact, faster. As Christine Lawson noted, the recommended number is somewhere around 3-7 threads per processor. I'd add the caveat that to find the optimal number, load testing is required, and that you can see significant performance differences between the optimal number and the others.

Strange characters appearing in emails?
This may not be cfmail, but the issue is hard to diagnose, so I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this before I start digging. Using MX, I am seeing to the string   appended to one line in one particular html email. Here is where it gets strange though. When I look at the email in the cfmail spool folder, the characters are not there. When I open up the message in the mail servers outbound queue, the characters are not there, however if I open the email up in IE from the queue, the characters are there, but they are not in the source. When the actual mail gets to the end user, the string is in the source! I think this is the weirdest bug I have ever had the displeasure of battling...anyone have any clue what might be going on? -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 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

Re: SQL Database Decimal problem
Creating a Decimal data column types take two arguments: precision and scale. Check to make sure that you have declared your column properly... More.. CREATE TABLE FOO( myDecimal DECIMAL(5,4); ) Would generate a column that stores data like so 1.2345 From the SQL SERVER Books OnLine: p (precision) Specifies the maximum total number of decimal digits that can be stored, both to the left and to the right of the decimal point. The precision must be a value from 1 through the maximum precision. The maximum precision is 38. The default precision is 18. s (scale) Specifies the maximum number of decimal digits that can be stored to the right of the decimal point. Scale must be a value from 0 through p. Scale can be specified only if precision is specified. The default scale is 0; therefore, 0 = s = p. Maximum storage sizes vary, based on the precision.

RE: Is Coldfusion REALLY multi threaded?
Fully agree with you there Dave, like yourselves at Fig Leaf we are often involved in load-testing big web apps and that setting should be nowhere near 40 unless this is 6 processor box. You are totally right the actual number per processor is determined by the results of controlled and monitored load testing.

Re: Need 2 elegant Queries
Have a table with the fields, ItemID, AdBeginDate, AdEndDate, ItemDetail, AdDate (if needed) Then just write a query to check what todays date is and what Ad/item should be displayed depending on where todays date falls within the AdBeginDate and AdEndDate. Just be sure to that add dates do not overlap. This was you can map out however many ads you want into the future and potentially you could have a user admin screen where they can change their ad whenever they want and for however long they want. If it so happens more than one ad will run in a week you will just have to change your logic a little. This might not be the best approach if you know your only going to have 5 items no more no less and for 1 week periods infinitely, however, the approach I offer allows for flexibility and can put the ad maintenance in the users hands.

Re: Is Coldfusion REALLY multi threaded?
Checking the Limit Simultaneous Requsts box, and setting it to 10 certainly has no effect. One connection doing the query, everyone else just stuck. Interestingly, they make the connection to the database (I can see them attempting to log in, which they do as a different user), but they get no response from the login script until the query has finished.

RE: MX Server installs and Microsoft Security Toolkits
Microsoft provides a whole bunch of Security Toolkits to help lock down a server. For example there is the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer. Some of these tools blindly goes in and locks down a bunch of stuff that you are not aware of. You should be very reluctant to make blind changes with regard to security. If you want to administer a server, you need to understand the security ramifications of the default settings, and of the changes made to secure the server. Server administration is not a trivial matter. Has anyone had problems running CFMX after applying security patches to Windows servers running IIS? A common problem with CFMX, or any other application server, occurs when the URLScan tool is installed. This tool is an input filter for IIS, and may prevent .cfm requests from being handled correctly, or may prevent URL variables from being received by CF. Another problem may occur with the IIS Lockdown tool, which can remove all ISAPI extension mappings from IIS. ISAPI extension mappings that are set up by default in IIS are often vulnerable to exploits, and if you're not using them, you should remove them (which is true of anything on a server, actually). However, if you remove the ISAPI extension mapping for CF, IIS won't be able to process CF pages. As for anything involving security, it is a matter of degree. How much can you lock down a box before CFMX stops working? Exactly the right amount. What kind of answer were you expecting for this question? If anyone has any white papers or other documentation on this subject, it would be appreciated. I noticed in the Security Section of the Macromedia that the white papers that still have the Allaire Logo stamped on them with dates such as 2001. Hope Macromedia is a little more serious about security than this. It does not help the CF cause. As Jochem noted, very little has changed as far as CF is concerned, with regards to security. Most security issues that you face when running a CF server have little or nothing to do with CF, but rather with the security of the server itself, and of the other services running on that server (particularly IIS). The freshness of the logos doesn't make the information more or less valid. The only major items that are specific to CFMX, really, concern the sandbox security model introduced in CFMX, which is pretty easy to figure out and to use, and which is covered in the CFMX documentation, I think. There's plenty of documentation out there on all these topics, also. Unfortunately, it's not all in one place, really; CF information is provided by Macromedia, IIS information by Microsoft, general web application security information by others, and so on.

Re: Need 2 elegant Queries
- Original Message - From: Kennerly, Rick H CIV [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5 separate ads that run for a week each and rotate each Monday morning. I need to run ad 1 for a week, then ad 2 for a week, ad 5 for a week, and then recycle to ad 1 for a week again. These are actually meal menus that progress forward a week with each cycle. On a site I've just done, I rotate stuff like this: - Is application.stuff.timestamp undefined or older than a week (or however long)? - If yes, grab stuff that's not been used (indicated with Boolean 'used' field). - If nothing returned, clear all 'used' flags and try again. - Query this query to get one item randomly. - Flag it as used. - Store info about the item in application.stuff (structure). - Set application.stuff.timestamp to Now().

CFMX CFFORM page gets truncated
I found two posts at the Macromedias forums with the same problem (no solution) A page that works/displays fine on CF 5.0 gets truncated about halfway through the CFFORM. Replace the CFFORM with the humble HTML equivelant and the problem goes away. Leave the CFFORM and turn on MX Debugging and again no trouble. I looked through the code and although not optimal I didn't see anything obvious (like missing quotes, table tags etc). I don't remember seeing this issue pop through these lists either. Any ideas? Has this happened to anyone else?

A dump of the first query produces the desired results. The datatype of team in a varChar(30) string.

Re: Is Coldfusion REALLY multi threaded?
Jason Lees (National Express) wrote: It might not Be CF thats causing the problem, its most likley the DB thats escalating the Lock to a full table lock and thus preventing other users from running the queries until the table is free. Pretty much the only way to get a full table lock in PostgreSQL is to use a LOCK TABLE statement for PostgreSQL uses MVCC (a.k.a. better than row locking). Quite unlikely. Also try moving the DB onto another server, as we had a simular problem, with ingres and moving the CF app to a new server solved the problem. I am more thinking of a unixODBC issue (admittedly, I never was a fan of it). If you have plans to move to CF MX you might want to test if the concurrency is better with JDBC.
