Re: Error - Invalid Parameter with CFUPDATE - while uploading a file
James, My code is converting the data into Base64 first and then only trying to insert it into the DB for LONG data type. This is working perfectly fine in our production sites But not in our local test sites. I am not able to get this behaviour with CFUPDATE? Thanks Sunil R James Holmes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: First, good luck getting the binary back on one piece, since putting binary directly into a character datatype is asking for trouble. If you must use LONG in the DB, convert the binary data to Base64 first. Then you can use LONG or CLOB or whatever you like. If you are using CF Enterprise, use the CF_SQL_BLOB type for this and insert the binary in there directly. If you are not, perhaps the above Base64 conversion will fix things.

Application variable not getting set on page
Hi, I'm having a problem getting an application variable to be set when it's followed by a cflocation. MX 6.1 is the version we're on. Here's the code: cflock scope=application type=exclusive timeout=10 cfset application.global.query_cache_times.flush = true /cflock cflocation url=some url addtoken=no I've been using CF for years and have seen this behavior with session variables but I thought that was older versions than MX 6.1. Can anyone shed some light on this? Just FYI - If I put in a cfabort after the cflock, then the appliation variable IS set properly, so it apparently has something to do with the cflocation If this bug is still in MX 6.1, then is there any work around other than a javscript relocation?

Internationalization Question
Hi, How is everyone handling internationalization in your CFM applications. I have an application that the users what to be able to be displayed in English, French, Italian, German and Japanese. They want the HTML text of the page displayed in the user native language and the also want to be able to handle keyed (say textarea or input) in data in their native language. Currently the application allows the end-users to input text in any language, except for Japanese as I just getting around to setting up my Oracle database to handle double byte charaters. Basically is there a way to determine what the native language is and then have the html text of the page appear in that language. I know that there are internationalization routines in Java and i18n resources but I am unsure how to use them correctly. I am using BlueDragon of the this application so I hope that there is no difference between it and CF. I hope I am making sense.

Unfortunately, I haven't gotten my hands dirty enough with it to give you any good pointers...but at my office we're relying heavily on ICU4J for all of our i18n stuff.

cfcollection action=list It will return all collections. Although I've heard this can be a slow operation. You will want to cache the result.

Re: multiuser CF blog app?
Pretty much the only customization a blog owner can do without having access to the template and css files themselves is override the default CSS with their own CSS (it's an option in the admin). But you'd really have to be a CSS guru to make changes like that. Ok, thanks for the info. I've been hoping to find CF based blog software that is easy to upgrade, but I'm not sure if there are any out there. I'm on BlogCFC right now, and it's cool but upgrading to new versions takes a while. If you want, take a look at AVBlog. It does not still support multiuser blogs but it's full featured, easy to upgrade, all XHTML + CSS driven (and skinnable) and near to the 1.5 release (with some imports wizards too).

Dave, In general, if you can't find a specific function that returns exactly what you want, your best bet for these sorts of things is to use exception handling to try something, and see if it works: cftry cfcollection action=create name=foo ... cfcatch ... Collection already exists? /cfcatch /cftry Of course, if there's any other reason why creating a collection might fail, you'd need to account for that. This actually no longer throws an error--or didn't in the original CFMX 7. However, you can attempt to do a cfsearch / on a collection. If it doesn't exist, it'll throw an error.

I would imagine so.
You want to be able to say more complicated things, rather than just:
if (doICareAbout(this.name){
if (reFind(variables.regExp, fileContent)){
return variables.match;
}else{
return variables.nomatch;
}
}
Although, writing that, I can see how you could easily have a way of
registering tuples of (name,regExp,ifMatches,ifNotMatches) into a parser
module, that would loop over all files, for all registered regExp. doing the
above code.
And that would probably do.
Can anyone think of more complicated tests that *wouldn't* be covered by
that ?
Though, of course, you just then write a parser for that sort of test, and
have a parser runner run all the registered parser types, which run all the
tests registered in that type.
I claim dips on this method :-)

Re: Announce: Advanced ColdFusion Contest
Having already built something exactly like this for anti-spam work, I can say that just about every rule I have is a Regular Expression. The only rules that aren't are the len(from), len(to), len(subject) rules. The issue of Regular Expressions is control. How can you check if there are pound signs in a CFSET or CFIF if you don't know what the boundaries of those tags are? You can do a find to get the start, a find to get the end and then search between those two points, but that's so much extra work where a single, elegant Regular Expression would do. On that note, do you think some of the rules for the engine would need to be something other than regular expressions? Steve And just so it's clear - I'm more than cool with folks talking about the contest. The point isn't to win the prizes - but more to attempt to solve the problem,and to share your results with others. Then my readers and I slowly pick apart the entries. ;) Seriously though - the point is to share so we can all learn. I think a lot can be learned by seeing how other people solve problems. ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:243214 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: Creating links (drill down) within cfchart
I think we lost some features going from cfgraph to cfchart. With the older tag, you could attach urls to each bar individually. Now it seems that you can only attach it to the entire graph, making the tag a bit less useful. When you want to drill down on a specific data set, you shouldn't have to have a page that then lists all of the drilldowns...you should be able to hit them one at a time.

You will probably get better help on the svn-users list.

OT: Best Practices - Source Control and Hotfixes
I actually have two questions, here. The first is fairly specific, the second a general request for advice: 1. How do you all handle source code labels for hotfix files? Are there any so-called best practices? I have a large application which occasionally requires hotfixes (I know, I'm shocked too) for certain files, but rarely to entire projects. What frustrates me is that I can't label those files that are included and then select a top level project for that label and have *only* those files returned. It seems that I have to label the entire project in order to query the project for a label. I can't query the project for descendant files with a given label. That means that hotfixes have to be compiled in a *very* manual way. 2. I think I've finally convinced the powers that be to let me invest the time/money/energy to move away from VSS and to SVN (which appears to be becoming the industry standard for source control). Can SVN handle the problem I'm having with #1 and, second, can anyone suggest any good reference material that might get me started with understanding SVN, its differences from VSS, etc.? I know this is probably *way* off topic, but any suggestions, advice or reference material suggestions would be much appreciated. -- Rob Wilkerson ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:243221 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: Server firewall software
I find that having both covers area where both are weak and takes advantage of both of their strengths. I didn't see the original posting...what OS are you using? What about Black Ice? I think that comes in a format for the server versions of Windows...not sure if it comes in Linux/Unix vers. -Original Message- From: Bryan Stevenson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 12 June 2006 12:16 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Server firewall software Personally, I think all software firewalls are a POS. If you want a decent firewall grab a hardware firewall, or set up a linux server and use ipchains. For a dev server, it really depends on where you're hosting and what you're trying to protect it from. Most shops will be fine with just using the firewall that comes on your DSL router (i.e. NAT). Russ Thanks Russ...and we already have it behind a D-Link Router...but I like extra protection. FYI ZoneAlarm catches ALL KINDS of stuff (including not allowing info to leak out or viruses/trojans etc to phone home) that the routers never catch. Unfortuneately Zone Labs don't make a server OS firewall software. .and now a note to all others that may feel the way Russ doesI respect your opinions but I don't want to hear them as I'm after answers to my question ;-) I am asking specifically about server OS firewall software.

Re: Server firewall software
I realize you're after an answer for a software based firewall, but what we're trying to tell you in a not so helpful way is that it isn't recommended to put a software firewall on an OS. It adds overheard, can cause instability, and if you're that worried about malware sending things from your box then you have a bigger issue than a firewall will help. The recommended method is a hardware based firewall, put the server in a DMZ behind the firewall and it's not allowed to be touched with anything besides the approved upon open ports, and put antivirus on the computer. Keep up with updates and patches and your server will be just fine. Also if you can try to move different services to different servers so if there is a 0 day vulnerability it will only affect one server.

Looking for server OS (specifically MS 2003 Standard Server) firewall software recommendations.

RE: Server firewall software
Zone alarm is definitely better. I thought they had a server version though that you had to pay for or something like that. The only software firewall I have right now is the windows one. I am not too overly concerned about hacking...but then I am not running a server for business either hehehe. I was using Zone alarm for a while on my machine at home, but ended up taking it down as it was more trouble than it was worth at the time...it didn't seem to like World of Warcraft too much hehehe.. The only server I admin now is my dev server in my home office ;-) I do also have to agree that overall...hardware firewalls are much better and much more reliable, they also do miss a few of the features that software ones provide. I have not had the instability issues that people have mentions and well any software you install adds overhead...that's a no-brainer. If you have a machine that can handle the extra overhead, why not take advantage of the extra protection ;-) Speaking of firewalls and NAT and all this good router stuff...I am sure this is a simple solution (jinxed it huh? hehehe): I have port forwarding on my router so my dev server is available to the web...how do I make it so that when I enter the url to it, local machines behind the router can access it. Right now if I enter it, I get my router login. If anyone else were to hit it, they get the index on my dev box. I tried adding the domain with the local IP to my hosts file (WinXP), but that didn't have an effect.

Unofficial ColdFusion Solution For Xstandard WYSIWYG Editor
Hey All, To anyone who uses the Xstandard WYSIWYG editor for XHtml in their content management systems (or what have you), I have created a ColdFusion version of their web-services. This would replace the ASP(X) or PHP version you might already be running. I know not many people out there are into Xstandard, but I think it's a great editor and I hope that this helps people who might not otherwise use it. This is NOT AN OFFICIALLY supported solution - Xstandard does not offer a CF solution.

Re: Unofficial ColdFusion Solution For Xstandard WYSIWYG Editor
Thanks Ben. I have been wanting to check XStandard out. Looks like a great editor if you are a Windows shop (we are). I'll check it out when I get a chance.

RE: Server firewall software
Enough of my smart comments... ;D I have tried Windows built-in firewall, Zone Alarm, and another software firewall (do not remember what it was) over the past year. All three tests told me that software firewalls on a server are nothing but a pain in the rear. So, I can not recommend anything that works on a server.

CFFile copy, bigtime permissions issue..
Man has this been driving me up a wall today Here is how it worked. CFFILE copy a file from webserver1 to webserver2 from webserver2. Just a plain windows workgroup, both running windows 2000 server, and mx6.1. Coldfusion running from the local account. \\srv-webserver1\whateverdirectory\file.txt type paths. Here is how its all screwed up. :) I replaced Webserver1 with a new windows 2003 standard webserver w/ all new hardware and renamed it differently. I also hooked both up to join our office domain. Now when I cffile copy over I get this The cause of this exception was: java.io.FileNotFoundException: \\srv-webserver1\I_DRIVE\Export\somedirectory\whatever.txt (Access is denied). I am guessing permissions. Here is the kicker. Can browse to that file and have it come up in a text editor no problem, but I get this permissions error with cold fusion. I have tried every which way but sunday to try to get this right and still it gives me this error. I am about to rip my hair out... ANyone else run into this and how did you solve it?? any help would be appreciated. Need more details, let me know.

We have run into this problem several times. I can't give you a concrete solution, but a way to test that Win2003 is the problem, turn off the firewall, or open it up completely, then try your test. I'm guessing it will work then. Then of course the trick is to find what exception you need to make so that you can have the firewall running and your process still work. -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA - | 1 | | - Binary Soduko | | | - C code.

I haven't had to try this with CF, but with SQL Server, we use Domain Accounts to run all the services and perform similar file copy functions. You can then grant the Domain account the appropriate permissions on all the servers.

RE: Server firewall software
Personally I would install a separate linux server (you can use it as a mail server, file server, or multitude of other uses), and use the iptables firewall on there to manage the connections to your prd (or dev) web server. Iptables is one of the best firewalls out there, and if there is an exploit for the OS (which might kill your windows server, whether or not it has a firewall on it), at least you have 2 levels of protection here. First they would have to root your linux server, and then hack your windows box. 2 separate OS's are more secure then plain old W1nbl0w$.

I think that, given the appropriate time and knowledge, it might be an important part of a complete solution for most people, especially given the nice Linux dedicated firewall distros like Smoothwall, ClarkConnect as Jim mentioned, Astaro, etc. But that still doesn't solve Bryan's immediate problem, which is protecting his host. Having a dedicated firewall is a good thing, but it is not a substitute for appropriate host-based security unless you have a very, very small network. And, if you do have a very, very small network, you can create an IP security policy for a host in a few minutes (if you know how) or an hour (if you don't), then wait until next week or whenever to build a Linux server. And, if you don't know how to install, secure and manage Linux, you might not be any better off than you were when you started. Many, many people who manage CF development servers running on Windows would fall within this category. Using your Linux server as anything other than a dedicated firewall (such as using it as a mail server, file server, or using any of the multitude of other services available) makes this quite problematic as well. Finally, there have historically been very few Windows OS exploits that couldn't be prevented using a host-based firewall (or even just shutting down vulnerable services that you don't usually need anyway).
