CF7 instances and server memory
Hi all, I am wondering if there are some values on how much ram and memory to the number of instances of jrun or cf server? For example if we have a w2k server with iis and jrun4, with cf7, this machine has say 2gb ram how many cf instances with 500mb heap are we limited to? 3 given that windows need some ram as well?

Thanks for the explanation, Joe...
Can you expand your explanation to include
the code that accomplish the constraint?

Hey Rick,
A "constraint" does just what it says - it enforces a rule.
A "foreign-key constraint" refers to a type of constraint that, when
placed on a column in one table, makes sure any values in that column
reference a value in a column in a second ("foreign") table.
Basically, if I had the following:
User
-
UserId
FavoriteColorId
Color
--
ColorId
I could place a "foreign-key constraint" on User.FavoriteColorId that
referred to Color.ColorId to make sure no values were ever entered
into User.FavoriteColorId that weren't in Color.

Hey Dave, Oops!...I in no way meant to imply that Ruby on Rails uses Java, just that they seem to be targeting the JSP market as their main market of Ruby on Rails converts. There's no reason, though, you can't be a member of both sets. Sorry if I caused anyone any confusion - I brought it up as an example of plural tables being an accepted convention as well.

When you build a logical data model, you define entities by giving them names and properties, and you define the relationships between those entities. As far as your logical data model is concerned, you don't have a set of entities within a collection, just the one representational entity. It's only when you get to your physical data model that entities become tables, and properties become fields, and relationships become DRI.

Re: CrystalTech does not like negative comments!
If it was your intention to hurt CT, then I think you are accomplishing it. People are really jumping on the anti-CT bandwagon here at CF-Talk, but you might want to read the CT forums where they have been very open and honest and refer to this CF-Talk post. http://www.crystaltech.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=10915 In reading some of the forums here, there have been MANY posts, by only a FEW, making some pretty wild accusations. It’s just a little strange since CT has been one of the leading providers for Windows and Cold Fusion hosting and the first company suggested by many of the vendors we use. I was also very interested to see Tim Buntel (from what I read is the Project Manager of Cold Fusion server) discuss that they were looking into CFMX7 and the session issues in this thread http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/messages.cfm/threadid=38982/forumid=4#198807 It seems that CT must have a pretty good relationship with Macromedia and the moment CT saw the issue reported the problem from day one as a CFMX7 or JRUN issue. It seems that most of these comments started at the exact same time people were seeing the session issues in CFMX7 and associated them with service level issues by CT. In any case, I just wanted to post some of these links as I have been a customer for over 5 years and have been very satisfied with the service and the communication they have provided. I would like to commend Macromedia. There was a technical support person from Macromedia whom I forgot their name who was posting in the CT forums confirming the issues and gave updates on what things they were attempting to do. On top of that, we got to see some posts Tim Buntel and getting that level of communication from a company like Macromedia is amazing. In my perspective, I am pretty pleased with all the communication from CT and the ability to get Macromeida involved. Again, only my 2 cents. >Beware that if you post anything remotely negative in the CrytalTech forums, >your post will be deleted!

I use foreign-key constraints consistently in my own work but always handle them in an automated fashion, so I never have any real need for a naming convention, since I'm not hand-coding the create or drop statements generally speaking. I am of course, assuming that you know the difference between a foreign-key constraint (which ensures data integrity by producing an error if an insert/update/delete statement would create a conflicting state in the data - in other words it doesn't allow the database to ignore errors in your code), and simply having two tables which are joined in your ad-hoc queries.

RE: Database Model Suggestions - Elections
I'd also say that any programming framework which relies on a not-configurable database naming convention (as opposed to allowing db naming conventions to be configured in the framework if not ignored) has a significant limitation if not an outright flaw. The onTap framework uses database meta-data reported by the database to determine such things as column names, foreign key constraints, etc. to provide a number of its more powerful features -- working in reverse, gathering the data which actually drives the database from its engine, rather than relying on naming conventions to provide schema information. It's really the only way to be certain the information is correct. >> Ruby on Rails, a framework gaining popularity quickly in >> the >> Java set, respected by zen-coder bigwigs, relies >> extensively >> on database tables being plural. > Since Ruby on Rails uses Ruby, not Java, I suspect that > once you become a > Ruby on Rails user you're more a member of the Ruby set > than the Java set. s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/p49777853/ http://www.sys-con.com/author/?id=4806 http://www.fusiontap.com ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

I personally prefer singular table names because the form of plurals is inconsistent. contact(s)/address(es)/octop(i)-us/pe(ople)-rson/addend(a)-um ... and because when the column names are written out it more closely approximates natural language. I don't say "fetch me that addresses label" (addresses.label) I say "fetch me that address label" (address.label). I don't say "I want to know this people's name" (people.name) I say "I want to know this person's name" (person.name). While the system tables for SQL Server are plural that doesn't really say much (if anything) for or against using plurals in your table names... The system tables for Oracle iirc are singular. "select * from col". The fact that the pdf you cited is on the Cornell server doesn't impress me much. The author provides no justification for the decision one way or the other, so there's no way to evaluate from the document whether he has a pragmatic reason or is merely making the decision purely as a flight of fancy. Personally I suspect his reasoning is similar to the reasoning behing not splitting infinitives. p.s. I read your other post after this one and was realising this could be construed as somewhat confrontational.

Why would you drive on the right side of the road? I can give many reasons why you should drive on the left side of the road, but that aside, how does one drive in England? On the left side of the road. How you name your database tables is a convention, and as such, doesn't really matter as long as you are consistent in your application of the convention. That said, the justification for naming tables using singular entity names is that the tables represent collections of singular entities. Let's say you have a set of products. You want to describe them within a table, so you name it "product". You can then talk about how you have a many-to-many relationship between "product" and "category", which makes more sense than using the plural in that a single product is what has the relationship to a given category, not the entire set of products. But again, it really doesn't make any difference, as long as you're consistent - there's nothing more annoying than having a database with some tables using singular names and others using plural names.

Re: Database Model Suggestions - Elections
Ruby on Rails, a framework gaining popularity quickly in the Java set, respected by zen-coder bigwigs, relies extensively on database tables being plural. In the end, I think it's an old argument, and that it's probably more important to be consistent than anything else. -Joe On Tue, 29 Mar 2005 20:14:48 -0400, Will Tomlinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > That's strange! > > I could swear my "database design for mere mortals" book said table names > should always be plural. > > That's how I've always done them.

RE: CrystalTech does not like negative comments!
That could be the case with my many issues over the past two days, but this just reinforces what several have said before...

Re: Is this campsite available
This is the same scenario as a concert or sports ticketing system where you purchase reserved seats. In most of these systems they reserve the ticket as soon as you indicate you wish to buy it. If you don't complete the transaction then it becomes available once again after X minutes - usually something like 5 to 15 minutes, whatever is reasonable for completing the checkout process, but also depending on demand. For a campsite ticketing system, I doubt you'd have to worry about making the time period too long. Go to ticketmaster.com and begin the purchase of some tickets - I believe the system shows you how long you have to complete the purchase before the tickets are released. - Original Message - From: "Parker, Kevin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2005 5:32 PM Subject: Is this campsite available > I'd be most grateful for a little bit of advice from this list please. > > I am working on a campsite booking system.

RE: Is this campsite available
Do like Ticketmaster and allow 10 minutes to complete the transaction or the site goes back to the available inventory list. Dell does something similar with their refurb computers.

I am working on a campsite booking system. The main issue of course is that unlike an item in a shop, any given campsite is only available once on any given day. Here's a likely scenario... User A indicates that he wants Campsite 1 for Day X. He is then moved through to the payment system and payments is processed and the booking is recorded in the system. Campsite 1 is now not available for Day X to anyone other than User A. That works fine. However, along comes User B who also picks Campsite 1 for Day X before User A's payment is processed. We could deal with this by placing a reserved flag on Campsite 1 as soon as User A indicates he wants it which precludes User B from selecting it. If User A's payment is rejected then we unreserve Campsite 1. However, what happens if User A does not actually complete the transaction (as opposed to it being rejected) We now have a campsite sitting there with a reserved lock on it but no booking.

Is this campsite available
I'd be most grateful for a little bit of advice from this list please. I am working on a campsite booking system. The main issue of course is that unlike an item in a shop, any given campsite is only available once on any given day. Here's a likely scenario... User A indicates that he wants Campsite 1 for Day X. He is then moved through to the payment system and payments is processed and the booking is recorded in the system. Campsite 1 is now not available for Day X to anyone other than User A. That works fine. However, along comes User B who also picks Campsite 1 for Day X before User A's payment is processed. We could deal with this by placing a reserved flag on Campsite 1 as soon as User A indicates he wants it which precludes User B from selecting it. If User A's payment is rejected then we unreserve Campsite 1. However, what happens if User A does not actually complete the transaction (as opposed to it being rejected) We now have a campsite sitting there with a reserved lock on it but no booking.

CFQUERYPARAM and NVarChar datatypes

Re: Database Model Suggestions - Elections
> Here are a few general db standards: > http://livedocs.macromedia.com/wtg/public/coding_standards > /database.html I agree with some of these but not all of them... My list: 1) singular table names - agreed (though I'm not too disturbed if I find one that's not) 2) descriptive primary keys matching a convention, preverably "tablenameid" -- agreed (I'm horribly disturbed if I find one that's not) 3) descriptive column names in general - agreed - (it seems like it's often tough to get people to agree on what constitutes descriptive unfortunately) 4) table names repeated in column names - yes and no - generally speaking I think that including the table name as a prefix in a column name is useful as I've frequently run into situations where the column name would otherwise appear in multiple tables in a view or ad-hoc query and prefixing the column with the table name eliminates the need to alias the column in the view or query - the tables can simply retain their existing column names 5) primary and foreign key column names - yes and no - a standardized naming convention can be helpful, although I don't consider it mandatory - I rarely access primary or foreign keys except in a very automated way, in which case the name is irrespective of the task - though if I were going to specify a naming convention for foreign keys, I wouldn't use a sequential number as part of the foreign key name, primarily because it takes the place of less arbitrary information (the name of the alternate table) but also because the number itself is just meaningless and prone to becoming "jigsawed" later -- that is, you create 3 foreign keys then later decide that the column associated with foreign key 2 isn't necessary so you now have fk1 and fk3 but not fk2 -- or you have to renumber your fk's... blech... 6) no surrogate keys in many-to-many relationship tables unless additional information is included in the relationship data - agreed - additionally, all tables must have a single-column primary key unless they are many-to-many relationship tables (and in most many-to-many relationship tables I would apply a multi-column primary key including all relevant foreign keys in the table) 7) related columns grouped together - isn't this more of a feature of the tool used to display the database than of the database itself? I tend to use inverted column names so that an alphabetical sort of the columns will produce this grouping automatically, so my guideline would probably be "namefirst" and "namelast" not "firstname" and "lastname". 8) created / updated columns in all tables -- agreed -- I'd only ammend this to say in all tables which have a primary key (see surrogate keys) or possibly in all tables which are not many-to-many relationship tables. s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/p49777853/ http://www.sys-con.com/author/?id=4806 http://www.fusiontap.com ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

Generating FlashPaper from PDF?
Is there a way to generate FlashPaper from PDF at the server?

RE: just noticed this when validating email
Thanks for the advice and encouragement, Rebecca! :o) Rick -Original Message- From: Rebecca Wells [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 29, 2005 1:01 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: just noticed this when validating email Start by picking up the Visual Quickstart Guide for Javascript that I told you about. It lends its self well to the kind of learning that you are asking for (called "just- in-time learning). Here's another tip from someone who is self-taught: when you see a web page that does something cool, check the page source and see how they do the javascript. You can learn *a lot* that way, not to mention copy scripts to use on your own web sites. You can search the web for javascripts for whatever you need and usually find something out there you can use, or adapt as a starting point. We all stand on the shoulders of those who have gone before us. As for working with customers with small budgets and large expectations: its up to you to help them to understand that a certain amount of functionality that you get from javascript is not really optional. You wouldn't build a house but leave off the door knobs because doors can be opened without them, right? No, that's not a good option unless you want to look really bad. And do you really want to be known for performing that kind of work? No, I didn't think so. It really won't help you to attract customers of a higher caliber who are willing to pay more. So, its up to you to educate your users that it's all part of the package, and be able to provide these amenities as part of your service delivery package. Then you must learn to go after the customers who do understand and are willing to pay a fair fee for these services. If you spend all your time on 2-bit jobs, you won't have time to market your services to higher paying customers.

When I tried to use Ron Pasch 's Flash "Slush Box", the code Sue Hove Simon Slooten Ron Pasch created a multi-select box, but did not populate the specified values. And to top it off, the cursor on the form is always the Clock- as if something else is trying to load, but can't. Which is leading me to believe that either something is misconfigured on the server, or just plain not installed, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what. What am I missing?

RE: .html files in cfmx7
Yes, but if you're in complete control over the server and you're handling the extensions that are on there, it's your call. It's just like any other decision you make. It could be nice and cute and the customer could love it and it could come back to bite you in the butt later, but that's your choice.

Re: IIS/CF Directory Security for images
iAuth can do this. The trick is to control the server content via an ISAPI DLL. iAuth is the only ISAPI DLL that uses CF, CFMX or BlueDragon as its logic and control. Basically, when a user requests an image the web server will query the authentication filter and the filter will either instruct IIS to serve the content or block the request in some way (with iAuth you can open a standard browser login on the broswer, redirect to a custom login or serve back alternate content). So, in your case you can authenticate based on the referer or a cookie or session to make sure that the user is on your site before serving up the image. In your iAuth template you can do something like: result=auth_reject response="301 content moved" http://www.example.com/img.gif"";>"> location=http://www.example.com/img.gif result=auth_accept You can download iAuth from our web site - http://www.coolfusion.com/downloads/index.cfm?id=4 It can be installed with a serial number of DEMO for a 60-day fully-functional trial.

RE: .html files in cfmx7
Sorry to keep this thread alive, but that last comment bothers me tremendously and I just couldn't let it die. I think you're 100% wrong. Keeping it simple is the easiest route. That doesn't have anything at all to do with "best". Hell, sometimes it's the simplest thing to run things on Windows, but that certainly doesn't make it the "best" thing to do. The simplest thing to do is to paint all of your customers' walls white, or at least one solid color, but that has nothing to do with what's "best". I don't know where the idea came from that the two concepts "simplest" and "best" are related. What is simplest to do is just that, "simplest", that with the lowest level of complication. What is best to do is that thing which will bring the most value to any scenario in the end. The only way one thing is better than another due to its simplicity is when you can do the exact same thing in a simpler manner. In this case, that means that if there were two equal ways to get alternate file extensions to work at the same level of performance, then the simplest would end up being better. If the simplest way to do things is the best, we'd all better go back to text-only websites. Now for the disclaimer: I actually do stay away from processing .htm or ..html files or any other known extensions in the app server just in case I ever need to use them for a bunch of stuff like you point out. -Original Message- From: Bryan F.

However our two environments differ enough to make me think that you may not be affected by the issue I'm experiencing anyway > I installed the JRun updater which included this patch on a dev box today, no issues so far. Running a JRun cluster even too. Again, this looks like our environments are sufficiently different for the issue not to surface on your environment Just as a FYI. I've just applied the patch to a second server to make sure I wasn't going totally mad and I got the same issues. Any page that has a cflocation in fails to force the redirect and the client seems to either sit on the page it was on or returns a 'Document contains no data' error... Again I backed the patch out of the second server and everything comes back to life again... Other than the fact that the first server was Windows 2003 Standard and the second server was Windows 2003 Web Server, it's worth saying that these two servers share and identical configuration and security policy etc. That is to say all registry settings are the same, all IIS lockdown functions are the same.. Everything. To all intents and purposes these boxes are identical and therefore there must be something (a config setting) somewhere that is causing this behaviour with the CFMX patch and IIS 6. Needless to say, its annoying that I cannot apply this patch as the problems it is causing for me are far bigger than the problems that it addresses But I am affected by the issues that it solves so I would like to get to the bottom of it...
