Re: PostgreSQL database size
Office wrote: I have a large 60GB data set of land parcel and related information for NZ which has to be imported from some kind of txt files. One table is apparently 5 GB. The data then needs to be transformed and then accessed via cold fusion on an in house server. PostgreSQL should be able to handle this without a problem on suitable hardware. Don't forget to check out the PostGIS project, it plugs GIS features right into PostgreSQL. I've seen reviews claiming that MySQL and PostgreSQL fall over at the 100GB limit Links? so kind of curious about the truth in that. There are hundreds of people running terrabyte databases on PostgreSQL. I notice that Macromedia don't include PostgreSQL as a supported database fof Coldfusion MX6.1 Server but Bluedragon do. http://www1.oli.tudelft.nl/jochemd/index.cfm?PageID=16 Jochem ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:185498 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

RE: Mx hanging no available threads
I have a couple machines with high load like you mention. I have just updated them all the latest jvm 1.4.2_6 And the new drivers mm suggests. 1 machine has run flawlessly for about 1 week, before it was tanking like every other day. The other had one blip after 4 days and now is looking good. I suspect from reading a lot of messages about this it is not an easy fix. I would try the updates and if you still have trouble its time to start the jrun logging and garbage collecting logging and get greasy under the hood. I have seen a lot of people tinkering with the jvm arguments, it appears that depending on your application they might be able to be optimized to fit your load.

yeah, it's pretty slick. i've been a long-long time user of commercial
GIS database products (mainly arcSDE) and to be able to use cf to run
spatial queries is pretty freaking fantastic:
!--- find the province this point lies within ---
cfquery name=findProvince datasource=postGIS
SELECT provinceName
FROM provinces
WHERE CONTAINS(the_geom, GeometryFromText('POINT(100.65 13.85)')
/cfquery
and to top it off it can output results as SVG.

Re: CF and Gantt charts
Gantt charts are a bit beyond what you can do with CFCHART. I've recently presented about (at mini MAX) and written a prototype Gantt chart custom tag API.

Due to the cost and time requirements, I implemented SVG for the API. I would have prefered Flash Gantt Charts, but there was no time to develop a generic Flash SWF to render them.

Re: Opening files on your system
Christian Kavanagh wrote: Yeah? So is there a native way in CF for the user to browse to a file on their machine (or LAN), and select it? Try using an INPUT TYPE=FILE, and use some javascript to copy it's value to an INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN on submit. You could also clear the file input with javascript, and that might avoid the unnecessary file upload. Also, loading the file on click: is there a way to do that in CF, or should I be looking at that as a browser function? a href=#related_file_1##related_file_1#/a Just tested that, it works quite nicely in IE, which converted it to a file:// url. However, Firefox did not. Perhaps you could manufacture a valid file:// url somehow.. I tried a few different things in firefox but they didn't work. Or maybe you don't care about non-IE browsers.

RE: Mx hanging no available threads
You can always do such things, but without extensive testing of your total setup you might end up with two machines being collapsed. That mentioned dual Xeon 2.8 and those 2 gigs of ram should be sufficient for the average medium volume website unless it contains a lot of crappy code. I don't think you end up happy with an extra instance, I'd suggest you look at the logs and performance counters to see what happens with your server.

Re: MX Methodologies (Mach2?? Fusebox??)
It might help to note that many of the same principles of OO development with CFCs can be applied using Fusebox 4 as well as Mach-II. People are starting to build fully abstracted object models with CFCs. When they're built correctly, you can take that object model and use it with Mach-II or Fusebox 4 (or both) without much effort. The only thing that changes is the bridge between the framework and the object model. In Mach-II, this bridge is the Listener. In Fusebox, it is often a set of application-scoped manager CFCs that take calls from the framework and feed them to your business model CFCs. I guess the point is, you can start honing your OO skills within Fusebox 4 and then whenever you feel like it give Mach-II a try.

Re: MX Methodologies (Mach2?? Fusebox??)
Simon, Thanks for your input. I do believe you are right. However, the company I work for is looking to adopt a widely used methodology, so that we can implement some sort of best practices and maintain consistency amongst our developers and applications. Since I was familiar with Fusebox that seemed the natural way for me to go, and then I took a look at Mach-II and that seemed even better. Then my next logical step was to get familiar with them as much as possible and see which one to adopt and then start converting our CF5 apps over. So I turned to my respected friends an colleagues on this list to aid me in this endeavor :) So far I am quite pleased at how this discussion is turning out. Cheers!

The .asp filter in CF is catching it everywhere, even on the site without the mapping in IIS. You'll have to disconnect CF from the site that uses real ASP.

So I went to /opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/jre/lib/i386/ and libjava.so is there, along with all of the other java related files. So then I checked /opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/bin/jvm.config for its java.home setting, and that is set to java.home=/opt/coldfusionmx/runtime/jre And that appears to be fine.

Browser Session spawn
Application: An application where you can administer a number of companies and their users. The issues: You login to Company1 and click on User1 opening a different window. Now you need to open User2 from Company2. So in the Company1 browser you go to Company2 while leaving User1 window open. Now you open up User2 with its own set of session variables. So you now have: Original window has Company2 session variables. AND User1 window has its own session variables AND User2 window has its own session variables. Should I not be able to use any one of those windows sessions independently of each other? User1 window is of course trying to use User2 session variables. And we cant have User1 accessing any of User2's session variables. Can someone let me know how I can get CF server to dole out another session to a spawned window that will allow 2 even 3 sessions on the same box. Is this at all possible?

Re: updater versions

In the system information I have: Server Product ColdFusion MX Version 6,1,0,hf54464_61 Edition Standard Which would indicate 6.1 with a hf 54464_61 (which I cannot find on the MM site). I'd like to know what updater (if any) has been run and what hot fixes (if any) have been run post updater. Is there a log somewhere? Well, the latest version is 6,1,0,83762 (officially: ColdFusion MX with Updater 1). You can log in to the Administrator and click on the System Information link along the top navigation bar to get more details. Your version has a hotfix in the classpath. Before we upgraded to U1, we had a version like yours (because of a session replication hotfix that was distributed to us). However, if you install U1, then you should remove all previous hotfixes from your /servers/lib directory and any other places in your classpath because the rollup contains them. After that, you should check out the URL below to apply the 3 new hotfixes issues since the U1 release (though I would be extremely careful about the 10/19 hotfix -- it only applies if you're using JRun 4 Updater 3): http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn17883.htm Hope this helps?

Licensing a CF app
Hi, I have a client whose application we have developed over the past three years. It operates as a web-based services for his customers, taking data entry and displaying calculated analysis of the data. He now has a customer who, for security reasons, wishes to have a private installation of the application running on the customer's own network. My client has asked me if there is any way we can secure his application, meaning Can we make it like a compiled desktop app that can't work without a license key, and can be timed out after a year -- both so it cannot be copied and so, if the customer does not pay his yearly licensing fee, the application could be disabled. Since this a ColdFusion app, I know that there is no way to truly secure it in the manner he wishes. But I wondered if anyone on the list had any similar experiences, or any thoughts on securing it to some extent. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool A Marketing, Creative and Construction Company for the World Wide Web 530 Means St NW, Suite 110 Atlanta, GA 30318 404-589-0560 FAX 404-589-0510 http://www.mediumcool.com ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:185549 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

But I though FuseBox 4 and FuseDoc files were supposed to make your apps faster, particularly because you put your queries in a file that ends with .QRY.

Re: Best way to access CFC's?
CFINVOKE and createObject are very different beasts.

Re: Error page when CFMX is down?
You can replace the Could not connecto to JRun page with your own page by editing the wsconfig\#\jrun.ini, uncomment the errorurl line and point it to an HTML page. Other than that, if your server is not responding, you can probably have it running through some sort of hardware load balancing device and output or redirect on errors. -nathan strutz http://www.dopefly.com/ Damien McKenna wrote: Is there any way to have the ColdFusion MX server or IIS display a generic error page if the ColdFusion task is not started or is not responding?

CF and Databases
I have a client that has access backend for his cf application, when trying to run a query for a report that checks for item status the page always times out never will load. The query works on other reports with no problem. There are about 1500 products in the field and the status id is numerical from 1-10. Now myself personally I would never use an access database for this type of work I would prefer to use mysql but I don't have that choice. So if anyone is familiar with cf/access or know of any issues that have to do with access indexing not working correctly under a cf app please let know.

Re: Licensing a CF app
A suggestion: depends how open that client's network is, but you could include a couple of well-placed CFC calls to your own server that validate the license information you also incorporate into the code. If they remove the CFC calls, the app can bomb out - ie make the CFC do some action/return some result that is useful. You could also deploy a CFX tag (hence compiled) that processes the result, allowing you to hide any decryption / processing logic from prying eyes.

Re: MX Methodologies (Mach2?? Fusebox??)
I'd call Fusebox a framework more than a methodology (FLiP is the methodology commonly used to support Fusebox projects). And while the framework code itself is not OO (where Mach-II is), you can easily build CFC-based object models that fully follow OO principles and leverage them in a Fusebox application.

Re: Best way to access CFC's?
We started off writing all our component method calls inline -- ie: component.method(argument1, argument2), but we quickly found that 1. It was sometimes hard to follow what was going on due to the squished up nature of the code. 2. Having to maintain the proper order of argument declaration was a pain in the neck. So, we switched over to using cfinvoke for almost all of our method calls. It lends a little flexibility to the developer, and helps to make the code self-documenting. We do still have some component method calls done the inline way, but they are typically argument-less methods used in cfif tags, etc.: cfif server.hcpro.isCustomerSubscribed() DO STUFF /cfif Matt Matthew Drayer Web Development Coordinator HCPro, Inc.

Re: PostgreSQL database size
Thanks Paul and Jochem
Thats the answer I was hoping for. We have a hosted server running
PostgreSQL/PostGIS/Mapserver running at www.gis.bush.org.nz hosting by
limelyte. But no inhouse experience with even installing PostgreSQL.
We use MSDE2 inhouse but it has a 2GB limit. Being able to integrate CF with
mapserver would be fantastic.
Paul - are you querying ArcSDE with CF directly. ESRI have donated ArcSDE so
where is the boundary between CF and mapserver and flash

yeah, it's pretty slick. i've been a long-long time user of commercial
GIS database products (mainly arcSDE) and to be able to use cf to run
spatial queries is pretty freaking fantastic:
!--- find the province this point lies within ---
cfquery name=findProvince datasource=postGIS
SELECT provinceName
FROM provinces
WHERE CONTAINS(the_geom, GeometryFromText('POINT(100.65 13.85)')
/cfquery
and to top it off it can output results as SVG.

Re: MX Methodologies (Mach2?? Fusebox??)
And you have hit upon the true issue: When it comes to CF, almost 100% of the maintanance problems with an app are a result of the people that wrote it. This is actually the case with many modern languages (I'll exempt C++ - it's a major knives and daggers language). Blaming a framework is rather short sighted. As an example, I once worked with someone that loved to name his JavaScript functions x, y and z. When he had more than three functions on a page, he'd name then x1, x2, xx, etc. Lovely. I especially enjoyed when he'd do stuff like: x = x(); y = z(); xx1 = x2(); Now then, is that the fault of JavaScript, or the idiot programmer (I use that word loosely in his case)? Obviously, it was him. To blame the language is disingeneous. Same with blaming certain frameworks. Idiots can make anything hard to change though. We have our own framework here, I hate dealing with it but I also understand the reasonings behind having it. There have been times when I had to go in and resolve something someone else was attempting to do and it took me hours or even days to get the task done and all because idiots were in it prior. -- Aaron Rouse http://www.happyhacker.com/ On Mon, 29 Nov 2004 13:56:37 -0400, Kwang Suh [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've had to add features to a regular CF app that took me DAYS, because the idiots that made it couldn't code to save their lives. ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:185586 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
RE: Best way to access CFC's?
Do you know that you can name your arguments in the compenent.method(arg2=1, arg1=2)? -Original Message- From: Matthew Drayer We started off writing all our component method calls inline -- ie: component.method(argument1, argument2), but we quickly found that 1. It was sometimes hard to follow what was going on due to the squished up nature of the code. 2. Having to maintain the proper order of argument declaration was a pain in the neck. So, we switched over to using cfinvoke for almost all of our method calls. It lends a little flexibility to the developer, and helps to make the code self-documenting. We do still have some component method calls done the inline way, but they are typically argument-less methods used in cfif tags, etc.: cfif server.hcpro.isCustomerSubscribed() DO STUFF /cfif Matt ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:185587 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

RE: OT: Scan Docs to Edit
Donna, Most scanners these days come with basic Optical Character Reader (OCR) software. Generally it does a very good job of converting scanned text from a page, back into editable text and corresponding images of things that can't be converted (for instance signatures or logos in letterhead). Once you have OCR'ed the document, you can add to it and then print it back out to a PDF file. (For which you'll need something like Adobe Acrobat Professional or even just one of the freeware software's around that do this sort of thing)... so the steps would be: 1) Scan the document 2) OCR it to turn it into editable text (Many scanners do this in one step) 3) Make changes 4) Print to PDF file Hope this helps -Original Message- From: dana tierney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2004 4:51 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: OT: Scan Docs to Edit you need to put text on top of the scanned image?

RE: Best way to access CFC's?
2. Having to maintain the proper order of argument declaration was a pain in the neck. You can pass arguments by name when calling UDFs and component methods using the dotted syntax: cfset myObject = createObject(component, test) cfset result = myObject.sayHello(message=Hello, name=ben) When naming your arguments, order is not important. In fact, you can build a collection of arguments and pass them in: cfset myObject = createObject(component, test) cfset args = structNew() cfset args.message = Hello cfset args.name = World cfset result = myObject.sayHello(argumentCollection=args) Ben Rogers http://www.c4.net v.508.240.0051 f.508.240.0057 ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - CFDynamics http://www.cfdynamics.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:185592 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

RE: MX Methodologies (Mach2?? Fusebox??)
https://sourceforge.net/projects/cfobjects/ Since we're on the topic, talk of cfObjects is rarely mentioned anymore. I still use it for every major web application I build because it works for me. Version 4.0 of the package was just released with a new Dreamweaver toolbar, class/method wizards, and some other performance enhancements. It certainly doesn't get the marketing blitz and big-name support that FB and MachII get, but it still delivers and is easy to set up and maintain.
