RE: CFMX crashes with high load on cfwddx

[Buckland, Ramon]

Thanks Joe,

I've googled and searched a good deal, and only found this relevant one
http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/cache/4/19/19054.htm
Is this it ?

As far as I can see, what i am experiencing
is very simlar, though slightly worse as this actually
stops the server from responding altogether
not poor performance, rather no performance ;).

bit of an opener for Denial of Service attacks no ?
ie:  If I know a webserver uses a cfwddx and runs CFMX
 then .. a constant hit, and down it comes.

As an example, one of the pages being converted from 4.5 to MX
has 3 CFWDDX calls on the one page. I only have to generate
a burst of 3-5 seconds on a freshly rebooted server 
and MX dies. 

If there is no fix, we are a bit worried
about this as the site has over 250 references to 
(was a fundamental design to the site).

?help :-)

RE: CFMX Updater 3 Released

[Joshua Miller]

We don't all have the luxury of that kind of bandwidth. I've got
satellite internet - I get > 200kbps downloads, but my uploads are <
10kbps. I certainly don't have the time to wait while a 40MB file
uploads over a 10kbps connection.

Really now, with all of the marketing data you've been collecting about
your user base does it really come as a shock that people want this file
without jumping through hoops to get it? I realize it's important to
collect marketing data and that's why you need to go through a login
process to get the updater, but if you actually use that information you
would know that not everyone has Flash installed on their server and
that not everyone even has the option of installing Flash on their
server.

I've been a big defendant of the new site and your push to RIA, but you
do have to have SOME consideration for Non-Flash users when it comes to
software updates. In this case, it's more important that users get the
updater quickly than it is for you to know who gets it. 

Put the file up someplace we can ALL get to it and then begin working on
a way to track who's getting it without Flash. Don't make your community
wait while you come up with another solution - that will only lead to
folks helping each other out by posting the file for download somewhere
else.

This is certainly an issue, and as I posted earlier, I have submitted 
the problem to the web team and they are aware of it.  However, it 
doesn't seem that difficult to work around.  I have ColdFusion running 
a couple Linux servers that do not have any type of graphical interface 
or browser installed, so I just downloaded the updater to my 
workstation and copied the updater to my servers.

CFX_WAIT & Crystal (Urgent)

[JAIME HOI]

has anyone used CFX_Wait before? i'm tryin to hold the page for say 100 
seconds before the data in the table gets deleted. 










DELETE FROM TABLE 


Is this way of doing correct ? Actually i needed to load the report .. AFTER 
loading the crystal i will need to delete the data from the table. However there are 
no return parameters from crystal that allows us to know when the report was loaded. 
Thus i use a cfloop to hold the processing to hundreds seconds later then run the 
delete request. However, no matter how long the duration was, the table was always 
deleted before the report was loaded. Does anyone knows how i should go about handling 
it?

If I get what you're saying, 

try form[field] instead of evaluate(field)

It's better than evaluate() anyway.

Another Challenging question

[Ezine]

Ok..   lets say that I have a HTML form with field names from the database..


Like..  ShoppingItem_ItemCode

Or a better example..   :   'ShoppingItem_' & database.itemcode

so..as people add items to their shopping cart..   this list gets
longer..



This works all good and well in the recalculate quantity processor by
getting the second element in the list with delimeter, _ to know what
product is in the cart and evaluating the full variable to know the new
quantity..  and using the string 'ShoppingItem_' to distinguish a field
containing the items quantity  in the fieldnames variable(skip all of the
rest).

The problem occurs when someone makes a item with a '-' in the product
code..

Ex:  someone makes a product with the code; goober-pokerman
The form field looks like this;


But when the processor goes to evaluate the form field..  for the quantity..
it looks like this,  (evaluate(field)) which translates to
(evaluate(ShoppingItem_goober-pokerman))..   and Coldfusion treats it as a
math equation..
(ShoppingItem_goober - pokerman) = Error:  ShoppingItem_goober(missing
'-pokerman') is undefined.   I tried using the DE function and it returns
the fieldname instead of the value of the fieldname

Any Ideas on how to get around this Dynamic Evaluation quandary? I'm looking
for the value of the fieldname..

It is stored two layers deep here...

First..  the field name is stored in a variable(currentitem)..
then evaluate(currentitem)= Item quantity in cart.
This works unless the field name contains a '-'. If it does..  the
evaluate statement treats it as a math equation and can't find the value of
only part of the variable name.

I'm assuming there's a reason Erika doesn't want to install flash, not
just that "I don't like flash!".  So I'm prepared to make the updater
available to her from my web site.

Erika, please email me and I'll let you know where you can get it, since

which says you have to have JS1.2 and Flash 6.0.65.0+.  Tons of fun for

RE: Help with import of data from Oracle to SQL Server - SOT - I know

[Kazmierczak, Kevin]

Take a look at DTS in SQL Server.  It's fairly easy to get started with it
using Enterprise Manager.  You could create a new package and create two
datasources, one being your oracle database and the other as SQL Server,
then create a Data Transformation Task between them where you could either
select tables of data to move or by query.  Then you can massage the data
into your SQL Server tables.  Once you have your package done you can
schedule it as a job using the SQL Server agent. Two things of note, first
thing is you are using ODBC drivers instead of the native drivers to connect
to Oracle which might cause problems (not totally sure, just might be
slower) and I have heard if your tables are fairly large the jobs tend to
take a long time.  I have created some jobs that dump data from our
mainframes to SQL Server using DTS and it has worked out nicely.

Subject: Help with import of data from Oracle to SQL Server - SOT - I know

Hi can anyone help me with a question.  I need to export data from my Oracle
9 database and import it into my SQL Server database.  The Oracle database
is setup as a datawarehouse in theory and I need to provide a feed and the
code to import the required data into SQLServer. 

I could run a CF scheduled job to query Oracle and then load the MS SQL
tables every night but I really do not want to do this and put the extra
load on my CF servers.  I would prefer if there is a why to do it thru SQL
Server - maybe DTS, BCP or a pass thru query - I am not sure.  This would
also need to schedule to run nightly so the new data is pick
I am not sure exactly what DTC or BCP is, but I will be reading up on it,
but if anyone has any quick info that I can read that would be great.

Sorry for the non-CF question, but it is sort of CF since CF will be reading
the data later.

Thanks

Mario

That's actually a typo.  There's no CD-ROM, but you can download the

Re: Retrieving CFMX code from a db

[jonhall]

By SQL, do you mean MS SQL Server? If so, forgive me if this seems a
bit unnecessary, as the database allows you to return a recordset as XML,
and apply a style sheet natively, and transparently...

While doing what you want would be technically possible, it goes
counter to the concept of separating your applications into distinct
layers. What happens if you need to change a bit of code later on, or
a bug is discovered? Bugs in code is one thing, but bugs in the data is
another...

CFMX crashes with high load on cfwddx

[Buckland, Ramon]

Hi,
 
Found I can bring down our MX server where cfwddx is used.
 
In a nut shell, 
obtain wddx string and convert it.
 
 
 
We use WDDX all over the site as our data layer
by retreiving through cfhttp.
 
I tested the cfhttp connections but it all came down to this example.
(no cfhttp at all)
 
-

 

-
Put that in a cfm file and ...
 
Stress testing pages by holding down ,CTRL-R in a browser (IE)
the server stops resonding.
 
+ From a fresh restart it takes about 5 minutes to bring the server down
+ From a page with many wddx conversions, I am able to bring the server
down in about 5 seconds.
 
* WARNING * This crashes my Dev MX Server on IIS
PIII 1.4Ghz , 1.3G RAM
IIS5 Win2k All latest patches from MS as of 10 hrs ago.
MX Updater 3
 
Please tell me I can fix this with config changes :-)
 
Symptoms of the crash are:
MX stops responding, IIS keeps purring
  Restart MX a few times and eventually, IIS stops as well
(I even had inetinfo hang and not die until I restarted IIS Admin Service)
 
suggestions ?

RE: Retrieving CFMX code from a db

[Barney Boisvert]

You can't parse CF code in a variable, it has to exist as a file on the
server.

That being said, I've heard of various people creating a ramdisk on their
server, pulling the CF code from the database, writting it to the ramdisk,
and then CFINCLUDEing it into their app.  However, that was before CFMX and
it's precompilation cycle, so that won't work anymore (unless you like
waiting for the java compiler to spin up every request).

You could probably write your cf code, compile it, and the write the .class
file to the database and extract that and write it to the CF cfclasses
directory after computing the appropriate filename and including it that
way, although that'd be a messy proposition.

Bottom line, I think you're out of luck, at least with CF.  I know you can
embed SSI commands in your CF code and the web server (if it supports it)
will process them in the returned content.  You might be able to leverage
that to some degree, depending on what you're doing, but no dynamic CF.

RE: Retrieving CFMX code from a db

[Matthew Walker]

Assuming you want CF tags and things in there, there's only one way to do
it: write it to a physical file. What we do is write that file every time
the data is edited, as well as write a copy to the database table.

Admittedly... somebody decided to disable CFCONTENT on our shared servers for reasons 
I've never quite been able to unravel.. and they still haven't approved my 
reccomendations to support the bloody thing, so I may well have missed it ;> None of 
my apps are particularly CFCONTENT intensive. So that may well be wher eI've missed it.

The default has been as an extension every time I've run it up to date. That may be 
tied into server conditions or the fact that its mostly upgrades from CF5.0, but my 
experience has been extension only thus far. 

ISAPI filters and I have a history of abhoring each other. So I'm not frothing at the 
opportunity to run off and try it. But in my admittedly biased opinion (ISAPI filters 
are just a sadism exercise to torment server admins, they serve no actual viable 
function beyond that, I don't care what anybody else thinks ;>)

As for Win2K, I'm not sure what the default settings for application
isolation in IIS are; I thought it used "Medium", in which case it would use
DLLHOST.EXE to run ISCF.DLL. At any rate, when I configure a server, I
always make sure it's set to "Low".

Low will consume all process requests in the inetinfo.exe... I think you actually 
mentioned that earlier in the thread... But anyway doing that makes it a royal pain in 
the neck to troubleshoot if you're running multiple site instances on the same slot. 
The performance hit is negligable IME. Since I generally stack two or three sites at 
least on a server, I generally run medium by default, or high for servers that I'm 
worried about isolating.

When you set high isolation, IIS will attempt to balance out excessive memory usage. 
The exact process is either poorly documented or just not documented, (IE I can't find 
the damn thing) ;>

In 2003 you can set up the processes to drop at resource consumption markers, and all 
valid session/client management data will be transfered to a new instance of the 
process, the old process will be terminated. Effectively an automated purge of 
racheted memory with customization. I presume 2000 has a simmilar, if less intelligent 
and more automated control.

I've admittedly got a high portion of ASP spread out across the server farm, heathens 
that I work with and such, but its quite literally our biggest pain in the neck with 
CF on shared servers - trying to identify which slot on a share is consuming server 
resources. I would truly adore being wrong, but with CFCONTENT disabled admittedly, 
I've seen one of our CF 5.0 boxes pushing 90% availible system resources (RAM and CPU) 
devoted to cfserver untill the server decides to take a small vacation and stop 
playing, while 40 slots are isolated and running sepperate dll's that are between them 
consuming a rounded off 0% of anything.

If anybody does have any suggestions on how to isolate the site instance responsible 
for server resource consumption   on IIS 5 with cf 4 onwards, I'd deffinetly be keen 
to hear.

When you say "same test folder" what do you mean?  The CFC should be in the
C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\test directory

here's what I would use:
cfServer =
NetServices.createGatewayConnection("http://localhost:8500/flashservices/gat

// set categoryService  to the CFC
categoryService = cfServer.getService("test.category", this);

You're correct that CFSERVER itself isn't run as an ISAPI filter or
extension. However, CF receives requests from IIS through an ISAPI filter or
extension. With CF 5, IIS communicates with CF through the ISAPI extension
\CFusion\bin\ISCF.DLL. With CFMX, IIS communicates with CF through
\CFusionMX\runtime\lib\wsconfig\n\jrun.dll (where "n" is the number
corresponding to the order in which CFMX was configured to talk to IIS - for
example, if you configure Apache to talk to CFMX first, then later configure
IIS to talk to CFMX, "n" would be 2). With CFMX, the DLL can be configured
as either an ISAPI extension or filter.

If the IIS application settings for a specific virtual server are set to
"Medium" or "High", and the ISAPI extension is doing a lot of work (handling
CFCONTENT requests is the only thing I can think of offhand), then you may
see significant resource consumption by DLLHOST.EXE. If the IIS application
settings for a specific virtual server are set to "Low", and the ISAPI
extension is doing a lot of work, then you may see significant resource
consumption by INETINFO instead.

CF 5 doesn't let you use an ISAPI filter, only an extension. CFMX lets you
use either one. To be honest, I'm not sure what it uses as the default, as I
haven't yet let CFMX do a default web server configuration during install.

As for Win2K, I'm not sure what the default settings for application
isolation in IIS are; I thought it used "Medium", in which case it would use
DLLHOST.EXE to run ISCF.DLL. At any rate, when I configure a server, I
always make sure it's set to "Low".

Most of the servers I've worked with have only been running CF applications
- and typically, only one of those. I've seen the DLLHOST.EXE thing a couple
of times under those circumstances.

RE: DLLHOST.exe woes. Part of ColdFusion MX? IIS Connector?

[Sean]

As a thought.

CFSERVER on win2k isn't run as an ISAPI filter afaik. Its called as a DLL, but process 
execution opperates under the Cold Fusion processes. As aprt of debugging site 
instances, we fairly regularly have to attempt to track the source of server resource 
consumption on a shared server. I can say with a fairly monsterous ammount of 
confidance that on win2k with cf4.0/5.0/MX DLLHOST processes are typically not 
associated with Cold Fusion consumption. With CFMX the Jrun.exe, and in CF5.0 
CFSERVER.EXE will normally be the process with resources consumed in relation to CF 
code and cfexec will be running, but typically not consuming many resources. This is a 
pain in the arse cause you can quite easily associate a dllhost with specific site 
instance (set hight/isolated, match the process ID for the memory consuming dllhost 
with the process ID listed next to slots in component services and play join the dots.)

If you're running CF as an ISAPI filter through some stretch I'm not aware of? I'd 
probably reccomend against it given how ISAPI filters behave. Just a default install 
tiein with CF and win2k thought will not be running through the DLLHOSTS.

Just in the name of scientific experimentation, since I realised I hadn't actively 
gone looking on CFMX as yet, I've just fired a perpetual loop across my dev box just 
dumping CGI and calling the same page again. Jrun pushes to about 60% cpu usage and a 
higher then usual ram consumption, DLLHOST's don't bat an eyelid.

I'd suspect if your DLLHOSTS are consuming ASP resources out of hand, you probably 
need to check into your ASP applications rather then CF.

When you use CF (MX or any other version) with IIS, within IIS you have an
"Application Isolation" option for each virtual server. If you choose "Low",
the CF ISAPI DLL will be run in-process by the IIS process (INETINFO.EXE, I
think). If you choose "Medium" (in IIS 5) or "High", the CF ISAPI DLL will
be run out-of-process. Since it's a DLL, not an EXE, it has to be run by
something else, and that something else will be DLLHOST.EXE in this case.

So, if you have "Application Isolation" set to "Medium" or "High" for the
virtual servers running CF, it's not unusual to see high memory usage by
DLLHOST.EXE. Macromedia recommends that you run the CF ISAPI DLL in-process
for better performance, in which case you wouldn't see DLLHOST.EXE using the
memory, but rather INETINFO.EXE. There's nothing necessarily wrong with
seeing high memory usage by either, though, as long as your server remains
responsive.

well, not the login "form", but the login prompt that is thrown by the 
web server.  I do log on as B, and the browser seems to know I'm B (the 
cgi.auth_user variable has changed), but it looks like the query to 
check and see if B is in my database never actually ran... which kind 
of makes me think that somewhere, something that I can't see is hanging 
onto A.  And since I can stop the behavior when I nullify idleTimeout 
by setting it to 1...

Sorry. I was just speaking in general terms in the first instance and 
getting specific in the second.  The main point stays the same, though. 
  IdleTimeout=1 is Good.  IdleTimeout >1 is Bad.

I don't have a logon form.  I'm letting the server do the 
authentication.  All I do authorize after that.  No HTML login at all.  
This is why I think what I'm experiencing is loads different from much 
of the advice I've gotten before, because I'm using server auth NOT 
home-grown-HTML auth.

Auth = server window prompt
Authorize = coldfusion query that matches the cflogin.name value to my 
database.

As it is I gave you all of the code that deals with the login, but 
here's the entire application.cfm for what it's worth.

Help with import of data from Oracle to SQL Server - SOT - I know

[Ciliotta, Mario]

Hi can anyone help me with a question.  I need to export data from my Oracle 9 
database and import it into my SQL Server database.  The Oracle database is setup as a 
datawarehouse in theory and I need to provide a feed and the code to import the 
required data into SQLServer. 

I could run a CF scheduled job to query Oracle and then load the MS SQL tables every 
night but I really do not want to do this and put the extra load on my CF servers.  I 
would prefer if there is a why to do it thru SQL Server - maybe DTS, BCP or a pass 
thru query - I am not sure.  This would also need to schedule to run nightly so the 
new data is pick
I am not sure exactly what DTC or BCP is, but I will be reading up on it, but if 
anyone has any quick info that I can read that would be great.

Sorry for the non-CF question, but it is sort of CF since CF will be reading the data 
later.

Thanks

Mario

So, even if you logout - you can't login as someone else? Does your
logon form show up if you close your brower and return? Ie, the system
_at least_ know that you need to logon, but when you logon as B, it
thinks you are still A?

I'm confused. You said the situation was bad if idleTimeout was not 1,
yet 500 is not 1 either.

Can you post the entire code block? Not everything of course, I don't
need to see the HTML of your logon form, but you get the idea.

Re: Application Security using cflogin and cfloginuser

[Patricia G . L . Hall]

Well, I posted a message here about a month or two ago that didn't get  
much play, and then I proxied my message to the CFGURU list through  
another member there.  You tried valiantly to help there, but the end  
result was me giving up in frustration.

I find that it is EXTREMELY difficult to summarize the problem in  
print.  Everybody's first reaction is that I'm doing something wrong  
(which I am open to, except that the specific things that have been  
mentioned I haven't done wrong), or that I don't understand how cflogin  
and the cflogin scope works, or that I don't delete the right cookies,  
or that I'm running cflogout at the wrong time.  Charlie Arehart  
actually came by to visit me and see my problem in person.  He hung  
around for four hours and the most we got accomplished was sort of  
agreeing on what was going wrong behind the scenes.

I'll try to summarize it though.

When my users pass server authentication, I run a query to see if the  
auth_user is in my database (using cflogin.name to do so).  If they  
are, I set some session variables and use cfloginuser to set their  
roles.  If they are not, I display a "you failed" template.  When they  
logout, I delete the session variables and the specific cflogin cookie  
set by cfmx.

I am aware that after they logout the auth_user is still being passed  
by the browser.

What I found happening wrong, is that when the idletimeout was set to  
anything other than 1, I could not log in a new user... even if I  
closed the browser and entered in brand new information in the server  
prompt.  In my application.cfm I transfer my session variables to  
request variables and these lines of code would throw an error...  
because the session variables were never set.

But.

If my idletimeout was set to something "normal" like say 500 seconds,  
and after logout I closed my browser, entered brand new information in  
the server prompt and the user was not located in my database, they  
would see the "you failed" template as expected.

This was very confusing, because if they could see the "you failed"  
template, there was no reason why the session variables wouldn't be  
set... it was all happening in the same block of code.  It's one simple  
 statment, you see?  The  condition worked perfectly when the  
original  condition obviously was not.

Again, I only see this problem when the idletimeout attribute of  
cflogin is set greater than 1.  If I set the cflogin timeout to just 1,  
my flow works like I expect.  Of course, the problem then is that my  
login authorization is happening every time that a user requests a page.

I'm posting the code (cause I know someone's gonna ask).  I hope it  
shows up.  And yes, I did pretty much take my structure from the docs  
on cflogin.

IIRC it has been documented somewhere on the site that Macromedia finds 
it important to know who downloads the updater (or maybe somebody said 
so in an email). So the issue is not so much the link, but creating a 
complete new login page.

Christian,

We know the work arounds.

Which you duly noted, thank you VERY MUCH!

Seriously though, why antagonize us all day?
How hard can it possible be, that all day today, you guys couldn't
release a non-flash link to the updator?

Please, a non-flash solution is duly needed and wanted, no matter what.
And I'm sure WE will ALL thank you when we get one.
Well, maybe I speak for myself.

Thank you for listening to our concerns as always,
A pleasure to know you guys are there

Downloading and reuploading is a pain with a 40MB file, unless you've got a
fatty pipe to your desk, and you already have the latest version of Flash on
the workstation.  Running over commercial DSL would still take a decent
amount of time (let alone a modem), and then uploading it takes that much
time again.

All it would take would be for the signin screen on MM.com to have a
non-flash version like every other page I've found on their site.  After
that point, everything is plain HTML again.

RE: CFMX Updater 3 Released

[Chris Kief]

For those of us managing remote servers over a not so fast connection,
downloading the updater to our local workstation and then uploading to the
server becomes quite a time consuming process.

This is certainly an issue, and as I posted earlier, I have submitted 
the problem to the web team and they are aware of it.  However, it 
doesn't seem that difficult to work around.  I have ColdFusion running 
a couple Linux servers that do not have any type of graphical interface 
or browser installed, so I just downloaded the updater to my 
workstation and copied the updater to my servers.

I certainly appreciate you trying to help, and I fully understand the 
issue.  I only mentioned it in case you and others did not know that 
redistribution is not permitted.

I run ColdFusion on several machines that I can't even physically get 
to, much less open a browser with the Flash plugin.  My approach has 
been to download the updater to my workstation, then copy the updater 
to my servers.

RE: What on earth? I don't even know where to begin Troubleshooting this error...

[Justin Hansen]

When faced with the errors you described, I would 1st tweak the copy of index.cfm so 
it has a different modify date, 2nd search for the class files that contain "index" 
and just delete those. This will forcing any index.cfm's to recompile. 

If you delete all class files, it will have to recompile everything. You only need it 
to recompile the index files so it doesn't think it's the same file.

Can I just delete all the files in that directory? It's a lot, and I imagine
all that will happen is that those class files will just have to be
recompiled, right?

The terms that you agreed to when you downloaded the updater explicitly 
forbid redistribution, so please do not do this.

Updater3 breaks Studio odbc?

[Matt Robertson]

This is driving me nuts.  I tried installing over top of my existing Studio 4.5.2 
install and no luck.  Then I uninstalled Studio, deleted the folder it was housed in, 
rebooted and reinstalled.  The new install still has most of my old settings and RDS 
servers... and still no connection.

Can anyone tell me what registry entries I need to delete to totally flush a Studio 
install from win2k?  

Or better yet, why would installing Updater 3 cause this problem in the first place?  
Is there a fix for *that*?

Subject: Problems with MS03-007 and Cold Fusion MX

All,

This is my first post to this list, so please don't be too harsh.

This is just a "heads up" and maybeof  help to others in a similar
situation.

We have applied MS03-007 on two of our servers running Win2k and Cold
Fusion MX. On subsequent testing we were getting strange results where
the 1st or default web server on an multihomed system gave us 404 errors
on everything except the default page. Other sites responded fine.

We removed the patch, both through an uninstall and through the Recovery
Console method described by Russ. In neither case was the problem
resolved.

We have not done thorough testing on this to determine exactly what
happened, but have resolved the problem by using the following procedure

Stop the WWW service
Stop the IIS Admin Service (if its running)
Run the Remove_ALL_Connectors batch file in CfusionMX/bin/connectors Run
the IIS_connector batch file in CfusionMX/bin/connectors Restart the WWW
service

One on of the servers we then had IIS grinding to a standstill that was
fixed by a restart, we are still investigating what may have gone on
there.

The servers now have the patch installed and are working with Cold
Fusion MX.

Best Regards


James Downes

RE: Unique random number?

[Joshua Miller]

There are several ways to do this. The first thing that comes to mind:

1. 

It will never be this day, year, month, hour, minute and second again -
you're safe here. The possibility of your server generating more than
1000 at the exact same split second is very unlikely.

OR

Using the database would be ideal, but if you truly need to generate the
random number without aid of db just use a few different random strings
of random length and randomize their order - just to make sure it's next
to impossible to have a match.

Something like this:

1. Generate a random number (3-6) of random strings each a random length
(8-15 chars) using my RandString() function at CFLib.org
2. Use my ListJuxt() function at CFLib.org to "shuffle" the 3 strings
together.
3. "Cut the deck" using left and right string functions with random
lengths and then reassemble before inserting the string.
4. If you want the string to always be the same length then use MID()
with a random start point that gives the correct length.

Alternatively you could first grab the recordcount of your table,
generate a random string and then append the recordcount+1 to the end of
the string.

Yes, that's convoluted, but it would put probability on your side.

Best bet is to let your database handle it though.

Nobody said the initial logic was good ;-)

That's a good point.  Why does the unique ID have to be random?  Why
isn't your DB automatically generating a new unique ID (sequence,
identity, or auto numbering depending on DB)?

RE: How do I stop losing my cookies and stay logged in?

[Ezine]

Dave

This type of error is usually caused by a Date/Time issue for cookie
expiration.

this may be solved by a number of methods..   depending on the issue..

Ex:  one time my user login script was doing exactly what yours is doing..
and it ended up..   the system clock was incorrect..   one of the admins had
set the timezone of the server to their timezone at home..  and then another
admin noticed the time was incorrect and set it to the correct time in a
different time zone ..   and the majority of the cookies expired
immediately.

Check your system clock..  and server system clock to make sure that it
is correct..
You may also want to check your server variable timeouts.

Hi Guys!

I am running CF Server 5. Everything was working fine until a few weeks ago.
Now sometimes when I click on a form link, I lose my User_Info cookie that

Why not just make the number the next number in sequence?  Just find the 
highest number used as a W/O and increment it by one.  That way you don't 
have to worry about hitting a used number again and again.

  SELECT count(job_number)
  FROM openjobs
WHERE job_number = #job_number#
   
   
  SELECT count(job_number)
  FROM closejobs
WHERE job_number = #job_number#
   
   
  
   


In english:
start an infinite loop
pick a number
see if it exists in open
see if it exists in closed
if it exists in neither, we've found a winner, so break, otherwise start the
loop over again.

Keep in mind that this will work fine for the first few thousand records,
but after that it'll start to get increasingly slower, as more collisions
occur.  Is there a good reason you can't just use the DB to create an
auto-increment (identity) field on openjobs, which you'd then copy to close
jobs when it is closed?  that'd be a LOT more efficient.

when renaming files,   be careful of the case..

Lets us this scenario:

You have a Index.cfm that you are editing..(notice the capital 'I' in
Index.cfm)
ColdFusion already Ran the Index.cfm and made an Index3939493.class
You then rename Index.cfm to index.cfm(lower case 'i') and save the page..

The CreateUUID() might be usefull if you don't need it to be an int.

Otherwise I would create an other table to produce your key

[index_table][key]

/\
[table1][key]   [table2][key]

Need to set a job number to a unique number, based of creating a number
using the RandRange function, but then I need to take that number and
bounce it off two access tables (called openjobs & closejobs) to see if
that random number is already used, then loop back if it is to start over,
but if it isn't, then use it to create a new record in openjobs table.

What I don't know how to do is the loop structure if  the number already

Yes, you can just delete them all. That would be a bad thing to do on a
production server, though, as the compilation process takes a relatively
long time.

Not to be an ass, but if MM doesn't provide a means to get the updater

Can I just delete all the files in that directory? It's a lot, and I imagine
all that will happen is that those class files will just have to be
recompiled, right?

When you use CF (MX or any other version) with IIS, within IIS you have an
"Application Isolation" option for each virtual server. If you choose "Low",
the CF ISAPI DLL will be run in-process by the IIS process (INETINFO.EXE, I
think). If you choose "Medium" (in IIS 5) or "High", the CF ISAPI DLL will
be run out-of-process. Since it's a DLL, not an EXE, it has to be run by
something else, and that something else will be DLLHOST.EXE in this case.

So, if you have "Application Isolation" set to "Medium" or "High" for the
virtual servers running CF, it's not unusual to see high memory usage by
DLLHOST.EXE. Macromedia recommends that you run the CF ISAPI DLL in-process
for better performance, in which case you wouldn't see DLLHOST.EXE using the
memory, but rather INETINFO.EXE. There's nothing necessarily wrong with
seeing high memory usage by either, though, as long as your server remains
responsive.

Unique random number?

[Robert_Myers]

Need to set a job number to a unique number, based of creating a number
using the RandRange function, but then I need to take that number and
bounce it off two access tables (called openjobs & closejobs) to see if
that random number is already used, then loop back if it is to start over,
but if it isn't, then use it to create a new record in openjobs table.

What I don't know how to do is the loop structure if  the number already
exists on one of the two tables.

Could someone direct me in how the code would look starting with this CFSET
statement?



...and as always, thanks in advance!

Could this be occurring because the file that's generating the error was
once another "index.cfm" file that I simply opened and saved to another
directory with the same name? I opened up "index.cfm" in the root, and saved
it as "index.cfm" in the /foo directory to use the same interface elements.

[webguy]

Of course this sort of stuff does expose you to hacking etc. Make sure your
webservice is secure. If its something like a credit card process cfx, there
could be issues with exposing it as a web service.

I bet there will be a lot of hacks in this area in the years to come. Why
try to do buffer overflows when you send a packet thru' port 80 in plain
text? :-)

Having said all that, you can code insecure code in any

Subject: RE: cfapplication and cookies


I may be misunderstanding your exact wants but just in case it helps here's
a quick  primer on cookies and CF applications...

First, cookies...

Cookies are basically stored in web browers two different ways, either in
memory or written to a file on the local drive.  If code instructs the
browser to create a cookie then it is always created first in the browser's
memory.  If you give that cookie an expiration value then the browser,
usually on close, will write that cookie to a hard file and add the
expiration date/time to the record.  If you don't set any expiration dateb
then the cookie never makes it to a hard file, it disappears when the
browser unloads from memory.  Because of this behavior you can work with
cookies that live *only* in memory if you wish, but in CF you have to do
some tricks to get that to happen.  In a nutshell that's pretty much how
cookies work.  You can do some fancy pants stuff and I can also imagine some
situations where this default behavior could be changed but for all intents
and purposes this is correct.

Now, for ...

When you add  to a page what it basically does is provide
that browser session with a server side memory area (this is changable but
it's the default) to store user variables and it links that memory area to
that specific web browser by way of cookies.  CF instructs your browser to
create two cookies, one called CFID and one called CFTOKEN.  Each one stores
only a number, pointer information that the server side uses to connect your
browser requests to your session data on the server.  When CF creates these
cookies it sets, by default, an expiration value for the cookies equal to
either the default timout value in CF Admin or else the timeout value set
manually using the applicationtimeout and sessiontimeout attributes of the
cfapplication tag.  Since an expiration value is defined, the cookies are
written to hard file and persist even after the browser is closed and then
re-opened later.

This is bad, at least for me, because I want the user's session to end when
they click logout, after a certain amount of innactivity, or when the
browser is closed.

To get CF to use session management and these cookies, yet only use them in
memory, you can use a little CF trick that's been around for a while.  Add
the following code to your page wherever you define your cfapplication tag
(usually in an application.cfm file at the root of your application
directory)...





What this does is re-write the session cookies created by the cfapplication
tag immediately after the cfapplication tag creates them, except the
cfcookie tag doesn't set any expiration value so they will only be memory
cookies.

In other words, on the server side... the cfapplication tag instructs the
cfserver to create session memory space for session variables, provide CFID
and CFTOKEN values that link to that memory space, create cookie headers
with expiration values, and get ready to send the cookies to the browser in
the cfserver response.  But then the very next tags, the cfcookie tags,
recreate those new CFID and CFTOKEN cookies before they are sent the
browser.  The new cookies will contain the same memory pointer values that
the first cookies did, but these new cookies have no expiration value.  If
there are no further changes later in your page code to these cookies, their
contents, or their expiration values, then they are sent to the browser
during the cfserver's response and subsequently get set with the proper
session pointers but only in browser memory.

Problem solved.  You get session management (server side session variables),
you get a timeout on the server side (the cfserver will kill the CFID and
CFTOKEN memory ocations after the CF Admin defined innactivity period, and
you get session termination when the browser is cosed because the cookies
are constantly re-written as memory cookies each page load.  The only
drawback is if the users don't ccept cookies, then you have to mess with
CFID and CFTOKEN as URL params.  I just warn everyone that cookies must be
turned on and it avoids all that, but it totally depends on your situation.
You might now be in a position to do that.

Hope this helps, and please forgive if I've missed anything important or
mis-stated something...I did this kind of on the fly :-)

This page has been running and working find up to a month ago. Last time the
reports were done.
We ran it now to start working on reports again and get this error.

Anyone know were to look,  what to check that might have broke it.

Have checked the CF service account/permissions have they haven't changed.

One thing that has come to mind:  does  use WebDAV?  I know with
the latest IAVA alerts this was locked down on the web server.


Thanks for any help
Rodney

DLLHOST.exe woes. Part of ColdFusion MX? IIS Connector?

[Ezine]

Hey there again

I'm wondering what part DLLHOST.exe plays in the coldfusionMX
implementation.

It would make sense that dllhost.exe is what is calling the coldfusion
connector...right?

Is it normal for DLLHOST to be using more processing power then the jrun.exe
process?

Does DLLHOST play an intricate part in the page assembly?

Zine

In CFMX you could make a webserivce wrapper for the CFX tag, but other than
that, im pretty sure you would need a copy of the CFX on the other server.

RE: CFMX client variables problem !!!

[Murat Demirci]

Another problem !!!

Have you encountered a problem with Client variables like "defining a
new
Client variable throws an error or does nothing *sometimes*"?

I cannot set a value for a Client variable RARELY!.

I don't want to believe that Client variables are unstable! :(

Any idea? Help?

Note: I'm using updater 2, and an Oracle db for Client variable storage.

Subject: RE: CFMX client variables problem !!!

I have had this problem since installing CFMX.  Rumor has it that
updater 2
fixed it, but my situation hasn't improved.  If I remember correctly,
setting 'setdomaincookies' to false is supposed to resolve the issue
(although that was not my experience).

It seems to be a subversive bug, because it only happens on one of my
apps
(there are two running on that server), and it doesn't happen at all on
my
other CFMX server.  The CF administrator (which uses cookies/client
variables) works fine on both.  I've spent hours examining the code and
I
can't find a difference between the apps that work, and the app that
doesn't, so I don't know whats up.

I eventually wrote my own client tracking system using URL variables
along
with some anti-hijacking code for the busted app.  Works pretty well,
and
had the nice benefit of allowing me to take care of WDDX serializing my
"client" variables behind the scenes, so I can transparently store
complex
data without having to think about it.

Creating custom chart

[John Stanley]

Problem:
I am developing a Gant type chart for a web application that displays the
current time in some sort of scale (either by 24, 12, 8,4,2, or one hour)

I have already looked at cfchart, but dont know if it can be applied to this
case, so I am attempting to develop this myself.

http://www.active.aero/testing.cfm


In the code attached below, specifically line 170 I compare the following
dates:

Date   Purpose
display_this   This is the date held as the "time value" of the current cell
flown_started  This is the date/time that the flight began
flown_endedThis is the date/time that the flight ended

so if the first comparison is 1, then that means the flight had already
started
and if the second comparison is -1, then that means the flight is still
going on

style="background-color:
red"


What I dont understand is why the hell does the red background stop and then
start again. The only thing I can think of is that the datecompare only
actually compares the minutes and not the date itself.








SEE CODE BELOW






































   



















cell width = #cell_width#%
use_this_time = #use_this_time#
this_display_time = #this_display_time#
minute_scale = #minute_scale#%




Joe bob flew from #flown_started# - #flown_ended#

minutes flown = #minutes_flown#

flown started | display this | flown ended








 









Crew


































































#this_display_time#



#TimeFormat(this_display_time, "hh:mm")#









Joe Bob



























































style="background-color:
red">

 














Flight Time
 


Service Time
 


Clock Time
 






Scale (hours)
24 checked onClick="document.location='testing.cfm?scale=' +
this.value + '&search_time=' + lookup_times.search_time.value">

As I wrote in my previous mail, this will not work if you have more than
one link in the text. Adding "ALL" when using a regexp that matches
start and end (^...$) is pointless, as you can have only one occurrence.
Also, this will replace the entire text by just the label between the
anchor tag. The remark about the parens is correct, but I already
corrected that.

I also added 'all' to the rereplacenocase() so that it will strip all

Re: Context root issues - an informal poll

[Christian Cantrell]

> Do you know of any issues with using "/" as the context root?

I don't know of any general reason why you should not use "/" as a 
context root, except if you have a unique situation like you and Sean 
(Sean is the expert on clustering, so I would certainly go with his 
advice).  On my development server, I use JRun 4 and CFMX for J2EE, and 
I switch back and forth between "cfmx" and "/" as a context root, 
depending on what I'm doing, and both work fine.  I don't believe there 
are performance advantages either way.

RE: Application Security using cflogin and cfloginuser

FYI, this is part of a 'feature' as well. The use of cflogin.* makes it
possible for your login to work over clusters. So - it's good and bad.
;)

However, if you use





It _should_ work correctly. (If you sync up cflogin timeout and session
timeouts.) I haven't tested it though. You may have to delete the
cflogin cookie as well.

Re: Context root issues - an informal poll

[Christian Cantrell]

Just to add to Sean's advice here, you also need a way to refer to  
non-cf resource in a way that excludes the context root.  For instance,  
of you click on a link that goes to...

/cfmx/path/to/my/file.cfm

... with "cfmx" being the context root, and that page tries to  
reference an image using...



... then your image will be broken because there is no actual directory  
called cfmx/path/to/my/images/.

Anyway, I put together a few UDFs which build appropriate paths using a  
technique similar to what Sean has posted here, and I'm trying to gauge  
how useful they are and how widely they should be used in applications  
that are intended to run with different configurations.  I will post  
them on my weblog once I'm done testing them.
