RE: sql2k vs mySQL vs postgresql (for win2k)
Answer to the original question: yes it makes sense to ditch Access. I moved from Access to mySQL maybe two years ago and never looked back. The only compatibility issues I faced related to problems with cfinsert and cfupdate, which I used extensively at the time. I have since reformed my slacker ways and write real SQL. When I write stuff that has to work on both mySQL and Access, most of what I do is fix() numeric variable output. Access has an annoying habit of outputting a numeric value of 123 as "123.0" which can be trouble under some circumstances. Not much else that I can think of offhand... In other words, its Access that's the problem child in the equation, so if you're used to working with it you should be nothing but happy with mySQL, on balance. FYI I have a server running CF 4.5 and mySQL 4.0.x with about 40 small/medium, heavily db-driven CF domains on it. mySQL eats around 15mb of RAM, never coughs or hiccups. That wasn't the case when I was using Access on the same box. Got another one running CFMX and mysql 4.0.x and it runs just dandy as well.

I said you cannot use session *replication* if you store CFCs in session scope. It's not really a case of "sharing" sessions across a cluster - it only affects failover (if one server instance goes down and you have buddy servers configured). Sessions 'stick' to the server instance that created them. Session replication and buddy servers are optional - they increase network traffic, the tradeoff being that sessions are not lost if a server instance goes down unexpectedly. If you want that functionality then you do need to avoid storing CFCs in session scope, a tradeoff. Note that application and server scopes are never shared between server instances. If you're confident enough that your server instances won't go down then session failover may not be worth the increased network traffic or the CFC restriction (or at least, won't go down often enough to matter). Alternatively, if you program your application to recover session information if a user's session fails over to another instance, you don't need automatic session failover. Hope that clarifies?

RE: CFMX and long integers
*slaps head* Thanks Joe.
Yeah that does it well, then I use LSParseNumber on the other end.
Not sure why it didnt work before...
LSParseNumber will also work on "1.0461E+015" so I just pass that through
the form variable.

What do you have on the other end?
cfml2wddx/wddx2cfm convertion back and forth between client scope and
local vars?
> client.cart
You cannot put complex(structure) variables in client scope UNLESS
you use wddx to serialize/deserialize, if thats the case you would
deserialize from client scope to variable/request scope.

The first is "all > element rule nodes which have a name attribute" while > the second is "all name attribute nodes belonging to a > rule element node" You are correct, but the problem stems more from the way Macromedia decided to implement returning of XML data. Since all XML functions are supposed to return the data in the same format, the xmlSearch() function should return the information in the same manor (since they've decided not to return specific information, but return the entire node instead.) You are correct in pointing out that syntax is important and you should use the correct syntax to avoid problems with different XML engines. If you supply the correct syntax, then there should be no confusion on what to expect back. I still think I'd classify this as a bug, or at least CFMX should throw an error stating this is an invalid XPath expression for this function (since xmlSearch returns entire nodes.) -Dan ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

RE: sql datasource
What user is CFMX running as? I've found that I have to run CFMX as a named user (rather than the default which is SYSTEM) to get it to work with Trusted Connections using the JDBC:ODBC brigde driver. You still have to supply the username and password (make sure you preface it with DOMAIN\username). Caveat is that this is the only account that CF will be able to connect as. The username/password fields in CFQUERY are worthless at this point. All in all, you are much better off using SQL Server logins over trusted connections for CFMX... If you need more help, drop me a line off-list and I'll see what I can do.

Re: query of query error -- works on cf5 bombs on MX
Okay, so I tried using val() both when values get added to the query and in the query of query -- I currently have this code: SELECT nick, message FROM history WHERE msgid > #val(attributes.cleared)# AND ( nick = '' OR nick = '#trim(ucase(attributes.nick))#' OR sender = '#trim(ucase(attributes.nick))#' ) I also tried WHERE val(msgid) > blah... and the server didn't like that... After getting to the point above, it worked on CF 5 and on MX it loaded and then I got a message from the flash movie this page returns data to saying that a script had caused it to run slow and asking me if I wanted to abort it. So I fiddled with it a bit with the same results every time. Then I restarted the MX server and now it no longer does this, but again produces the invalid datatype comparison error with the val() in the query. Error Executing Database Query.Query Of Queries runtime error. Unsupported type comparison. The specific sequence of files included or processed is: C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\dev\talkontap\index.cfm damn this is frustrating. >> So I'm guessing that MX is creating the msgid column as a >> varchar column > and >> it's complaining about "msgid > #attributes.cleared#" ... >> So does anybody >> know how to set the data type on a query column created >> using querynew() > in >> MX? > I've had success with this problem by putting putting > Val() around the > values to be "cast" as a number.

If you are after, all the attribute values (example "type") in an xml doc like xRes=xmlSearch(odoc, "/Books/Book/@type); I dont see a reason to use xmlSearch(), cause you want "ALL" attributes values. Havent done any testing but i would think searching for "ALL" would be slower than looping through the array with xmlAttributes (Book[1-len].XmlAttributes["type"]) Thats my logical way of doing what you are tying to accomplish. Yes, this (xRes=xmlSearch(odoc, "/Books/Book/@type) only gives the array length and no values. If its a BUG, its needs to be fixed:) and thanks for bringing it up.

disappearing client scope
Ok, my form submission goes through this little scrpt (on an on-click
event):
function updateSubmit(itemID,qNum) {
document.cartform.action = "index.cfm";
document.cartform.method = "post";
document.cartform.saction.value = "update_cart";
document.cartform.CFID.value = "#URL.CFID#";
document.cartform.CFTOKEN.value = "#URL.CFTOKEN#";
document.cartform.ITEM_ID.value = itemID;
document.cartform.QUANTITY.value = qNum;
document.cartform.submit();
}
Submission is working fine, but on the other end is a WDDX tag that
expecting to read a Client.object, but I'm getting an error that the the
client.cart does not exist.
Now, I've seen client vars get dropped before when I haven't maintained
state (such as in a URLTOKEN), but as far as I can tell the CFID and CFTOKEN
are getting passed. Here's what I'm seeing in my debug:
Form Fields:
CFID=1678
CFTOKEN=46234445
FIELDNAMES=SACTION,CFID,CFTOKEN,ITEM_ID,QUANTITY,ITEM_ID,QUANTITY
ITEM_ID=6,6
QUANTITY=1,1
SACTION=update_cart
So, where is my client var?
Why am I seeing this: Error resolving parameter CLIENT.CARTITEMS

I've had success with this problem by putting putting Val() around the values to be "cast" as a number.

Sean, point of clarification about the above statement. According to your blog (01/01/2003), if you are using MX for J2EE, you *cannot* use the underlying J2EE session mechanism if you store CFCs in the session scope and would like to share the sessions across a cluster because they are full-blown Java objects. Assuming I have not misread your blog statement, I think that's an important disclaimer for those who are looking to use the underlying J2EE session mechanism on MX for J2EE servers. Please correct this if I'm wrong.

FYI: Above and beyond the call of duty
>> I was on the phone to Mike (long distance) for quite a while - never thought to tell him to install CFMX as standalone (I'm running it fine with MX). Once again Dave Watts has saved someone's sanity... << I'm sure you're all pretty well sick of my problem, and to tell the truth, so am I. But you'll be glad to know it's finally ended. Not solved, but with the amazing help of Dave Watts from CF-TALK, we've made a workaround and its no longer a problem for me. The problem: Jrun is just not doing what it should. When I try to get CFMX to connect to IIs the jrun server (which is definitely running) can't be found by the gui to connect to it. Everything I've tried, Chris Kief has tried, and Dave Watts has tried has failed to make this jrun connection work. The Solution: Last night, for about 4-5 hours, Dave Watts from Figleaf Software connected to my desktop in a VNC session and we tried one thing after another. Or more accurately, he did one thing after another while I watched. Dave is an extraordinarily generous man, and apart from the obvious expert knowledge and problem solving skills that are so familiar on CF-TALK, he gave up time to help me, and when it got difficult, he didn't give up. When I gave him the chance to get out and say "Good luck" he persisted and kept on helping. I am very indebted to him and we are very lucky to have such a person in the ColdFusion community. The answer was staring me in the face the whole time, and I was too close to it to see. IT seems really stupid now, but it was like a light going on. Suddenly, in a burst of inspiration, a question arose ... DO I REALLY NEED TO USE IIs? I know it seems stupid from this perspective but it had never occurred to me before that I mightn't need IIs, and it didn't occur to Dave to ask why I needed IIs. But I can't think of a reason why I need it. SO the solution: Don't use IIs. LOL!!! Yes, the CFMX web server isn't as sexy, and can't use WinXP authentication, and to create virtual directories I have to edit a xml file, but it works fine. So I'm doing without IIs, and the problem, while it hasn't gone away, it doesn't matter any more. One day I'll rebuild my WinXPPro and I guess I'll have another go at installing it all then, but in the mean time I'm past the obstacle and moving on. Thanks everyone for their suggestions, help and advice, and for giving a damn. Now I'll shut up for a while.

This says that the result of ictx.lookup() is (Java) null. As far as CF is concerned, that indicates the variable (ejbHome) is not defined. So it sounds like the developers' machines are not able to reference the EJB remotely. Time to consult the Java docs and see what it says about debugging context lookups.

If I can't use client > variables how would I then scale the web service? Potentially this web > service will be used by a large number of people. First a note about scalability of session variables in CFMX: With CFMX you can rely on the underlying J2EE session mechanism and use session scope variables in CF. macromedia.com uses this approach and our peak traffic typically creates about 15,000 active sessions - plenty of scalability. Second, the caveat about web services: Web services calls are typically stateless so you will not have / maintain session data because there is not necessarily a uniform way to maintain that session on the client. It sounds like you will be creating a service that can support all sorts of clients, not just CF? Perhaps the approach to take is to have the login / authentication method of the web service return some magic token that is then passed back in to each subsequent web service call (you may not be able to rely on cookies if you are supporting all manner of clients). You could then maintain a server-side mapping from the magic token to the user details or pseudo-session.

OT: NTLM Authentication
If I enable Basic Authentication for an IIS 5 web site protected by NTFS ACLs, will Internet Explorer still use NTLM to authenticate if its able to? In other words, does enabling Basic Authentication keep IIS from using NTLM, or does it only enable Basic Authentication as fallback method?

What's the general approach for a cookie powered splash page?
I was wondering what the general approach would be for doing the following in MX: 1. go to site 2. if cookie exists, go to the main page 3. if cookie doesn't exist, show the "splash" page, with a link to the main page, then set the cookie when the link is clicked Another question I had about functionality was the idea of somehow embedding whether or not you've got a name that can be displayed. At some point during the visit, the opportunity will present itself with the option of submitting your email address and a name. I'd like for the cookie to somehow indicate that the user has been here, signed up or submitted their email address, and display their name on the main page. If the user has the cookie, but hasn't filled out the form and submitted a name, just display a greeting with a link to "sign in" by using their email address. It's not a huge security thing, just a real effortless way to incorporate a little feedback and interaction, so overwhelming security and obtrusive passwords aren't required really. First things first though, I was really just wondering what the general approach is to doing the simple splash page redirect above in CFMX. Which code to put in the index.cfm (the default document for the site) and what code to put on "main_page.cfm" (the second page, that would be seen if you had the cookie). I know I'd probably have to put the "is there a cookie?" code on all the pages, since there's always the possibility of someone bookmarking any of the pages, which makes me think a good portion of the code would be placed in Application.cfm in the root of the site. On the right track? Do a lot of people disable cookies as a general rule? Could you try to set a cookie, and if it wasn't possible, do a to a page explaining that "there's nothing bad here, but you're gonna need to set cookies in order to fully experience the interaction of the site"? ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.

CFX for CFMX
Hi I am having a problem with the CFMX implementation of C++ CFXs. The CFX is not retained in memory even though I have ticked that option in the CF MX Administrator. In order to make sure this was the case I created a simple CFX that initialises a variable in memory to 0. On subsequent calls the CFX increments that variable. On each call it returns the number to CF. Now if the CFX was in memory you would see the number going up - this works in CF5 with the same CFX but in CFMX it doesn't appear to work at all, the number initialises and returns 0 on each call. Is this a known issue? Are other people experiencing this too? I have tried checking on the MM forums and site but can find nothing relating to this. I've updated my CF MX server with updater 2.

Presentation on March 27, 2003 in San Antonio
| It is my pleasure to announce a presentation of IVIS Blueprint, the application | framework for ColdFusion. | Product details may be reviewed at: http://www.ivis.com/products/blueprint.cfm | | The location will be in Room 120 (auditorium) of the Visual Arts and Technology | building, on the beautiful campus of San Antonio College, in San Antonio, Texas. | Directions and location maps may be found on our group web site at | http://samcfug.org. | | Who should attend: Anyone interested in or actually developing ColdFusion web | applications, regardless of experience or skill level. | | Now that we have installed our new dedicated Server, we will be able to | broadcast this presentation via Flashcom starting at 7:00 PM Central Time. This | installation ended a seven month saga attempting install of the FCS software on | a shared (multi-homed) server on which the default web site was NOT activated. | By going to the dedicated (single-homed) server, the installation and set up | took approximately 20 minutes to get up and running. | | Connectivity to the server from the presentation location will be via an OC3 | connection, and from Server to client a T-1 connection. | | A big thank you to Michael Dinowitz (HouseofFusion) for his assistance and tips | in creating the flash app for the front end. | | Due to the limited connections on our FCS license, we will publish the URL and | password to join in this exiting presentation to those who RSVP on a first come, | first serve basis. Group members will receive priority. | | One full copy of the software will be raffled off to meeting attendees, and | another copy will be raffled off to a Flashcom participant. Each is a $1499.00 | value. | | Refreshments (Southern Fried Chicken, all you can eat) will be served. | = | Douglas White | group Manager | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.samcfug.org | = | | | ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

objects in application memory
We have an application which uses an object in generating page output every request. eg: cfset somevar = myobj.function(param1, param2, param3) I have rewritten it just now as a CFC (originally Java) and plan to invoke it via CFObject. It is generally called upon about 5 times within a page request to do some processing My question is, We will be calling it within the application.cfm so should it be 1) invoked once and loaded into application memory 2) invoked once per session and saved into session memory 3) invoke and use each page request Just wondering if using / storing an object in memory vs invkoing it upon each request has benfits. Dos MX do object caching behind the scenes? Im am assuming depending on Java vs some other type of object .. it should be done differently? Does anyone have any war scars in this area ? What if the CFC was instead a Java Object ? (the current 4.5 site is a Java Object, thread safe and invoked each request) (3 years ago, it was written as a singleton class but CF4.5 didn't like that / didn't seem to work that way so we just made it thread safe.) I know this is broad as Im scoping avenues for the MX way :-) cheers Ramon - NOTICE - This message may contain confidential, proprietary or legally privileged information and is intended only for the use of the addressee named above.

Re: CF and PhotoShop
More then likely he's trying to generate images on the fly... The only way I could even imagine achieving this would be to see what type (if any) of COM connections Photoshop has. I use Photoshop extensively, but have never really tried to integrate the two. The best thing you can do is to download the OLEView application: http://www.microsoft.com/com/resources/OVI386.EXE and install it on the machine that had Photoshop, then see if Photoshop has COM connections available.. (Not even sure it does, or that it will allow you to do anything useful..)

RE: Apache 2.0.44 and CFMX Server HELP!!
Hi Juan, I just installed CFMX + Apache 2.0.44 on Windows 2000 Server yesterday. It worked fine. (I've also installed Jrun4 SP1a + CFMX for J2EE + Apache 2.0.44 on WinXP Home, it also worked fine) Steps : - install CFMX with the default integrated web server, - check your CFMX installation (access CF Administrator), - run the updater 2, - install Apache 2, - check you Apache installation (access the default index.html page), - edit c:\CFusionMX\bin\connectors\Apache_connector.bat and change "..\program files\apache group\apache\.." to "..\program files\apache group\apache2\.." - run the Apache_connector.bat file, - check your CFMX installation with a test.cfm page in Apache htdocs. It should work... If you need to remove any connectors (IIS or Apache), you can run Remove_ALL_connectors.bat. Good luck. Benoit Hediard www.benorama.com PS : FYI, the .bat file should add the following lines in your httpd.conf # JRun Settings LoadModule jrun_module "C:/CFusionMX/runtime/lib/wsconfig/1/mod_jrun20.so" JRunConfig Verbose false JRunConfig Apialloc false JRunConfig Ssl false JRunConfig Ignoresuffixmap true JRunConfig Serverstore "C:/CFusionMX/runtime/lib/wsconfig/1/jrunserver.store" JRunConfig Bootstrap 127.0.0.1:51010 #JRunConfig Errorurl AddHandler jrun-handler .cfm .cfc .cfml .jsp .jws > -Message d'origine- > De : Juan Nava [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Envoyé : mercredi 12 mars 2003 22:19 > À : CF-Talk > Objet : RE: Apache 2.0.44 and CFMX Server HELP!! > > > Ok.

RE: Easy Len ?
Spaces are often considered characters for such totals. Do you want to get rid of all spaces? Do you only want to get rid of big huge swaths of spaces that throw such totals off? Do you need to get rid of all non viewable characters? Do you need to get rid of anything that is not numbers or letters? If the first, it looks Matthew's solution is the simplest. If you need something more complex, try to describe what you are shooting for (why you want the spaces gone) and Ben Doom or I will see about a regex that could possibly help. What version of CF?

RE: XPath in CFMX
Uh, "//[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and "//rule/@name" aren't equivalent XPATH expressions. The first is "all element rule nodes which have a name attribute" while the second is "all name attribute nodes belonging to a rule element node" Running this with your example gives: text here text here for "//[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and the corresponding 2 name attribute nodes for the "//rule/@name". The first should return an array of two element nodes and the second should return an array of two attribute nodes. I suspect what is happening is that when you do a cfdump, only the content of the node is displayed. Technically, the content of an element node is all the "text" between its enclosing tags (ignoring its attributes), whereas the content of an attribute node is nothing (but it has a value of "firstRule"). Or, in XSL terms, you're expecting behavior while xmlsearch is exhibiting behavior. So anyways, I would not recommend a rewrite as the two expressions are not equivalent. --- "Dan G.

You need to run the wsconfig utility, which is described in the "Configuring web servers" section of the "Installing ColdFusion MX" documentation book, available in PDF or HTML form from the MM site. Briefly, though, you should be able to run \CFusionMX\runtime\bin\wsconfig.exe or \CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig.jar, which will give you a GUI interface for configuring your web server.

RE: XPath in CFMX
Yeah, we've already considered option 1, and we may in fact do that. We also may end up re-designing our XML structure at some point down the road, which could obviate the need for this particular Xpath call. But, those points aside, it's still mucho annoying that this doesn't work. -Original Message- From: Dan G. Switzer, II [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 2:45 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: XPath in CFMX Oh yeah, to workaround the bug, you could write a UDF that you'd run before passing the xmlSearch() function that would format it via an XPath statement CF likes: So, you'd look for strings ending in: /@attName and replace with [EMAIL PROTECTED] You might also just consider writing your own "xpath()" function to use to replace the xmlSearch() function. You could then either choose to use a Java-based parser, or just reformat strings to make them CFMX "friendly." -Dan > -Original Message- > From: Dan G.

Re: Com and CFMX
Updater 2 fixed alot of issues but there's still one for me where it doesn't release the object from memory for a few seconds. Not a real issue if your object is multi-threaded but a problem for me as the object I'm using is not. So ASP it is for the COM stuff. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 3:39 PM Subject: RE: Com and CFMX > there is info on this in the known issues lists at macromedia.com > > D > > >-Original Message- > >From: Robert Bailey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 3:12 PM > >To: CF-Talk > >Subject: Com and CFMX > > > > > >So running the same scripts under CFMX and CF5 server, they do not work > >under CFMX.

As an addendum to this thread, I've just run Remove_ALL_connectors.bat on a second machine also with CFMX and Updater 2. Again, it removed all ISAPI filters in the Master Web Site Properties, not just the JRunConnector Filter. Having replicated it on a different machine, I'm now confident this is a bug. -- Aidan Whitehall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Macromedia ColdFusion Developer Fairbanks Environmental Ltd +44 (0)1695 51775 ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=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 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
