RE: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
1. Security Says Who? Once you have a decent sized user base with people testing for security weaknesses, I really don't see how you can claim this. Just because you and your limited user base hasn't found security holes doesn't mean they don't exist. I also bet that almost every CFer in here will say that Coldfusion is very secure, I've never had any issues. 2. Performance What's that saying on stats, CF8 is supposed to be much faster again so lets do a comparison in a few months. 3. Pricing Seriously, I looked at the pricing, it aint all that great, just like BD's if it was significantly less expensive you might have a case, but it's marginally less expensive with less features.

Hi all together, I read all the posts from you guys saying that there should be no reason to host Railo since it is only compatible to version MX 6.1. And you know you are absolutely right, if you do not care for: - security - performance - price Why do people still start new hosting on Bluedragon? Easy. Because it is well known and a lot of people use it. I am sure that Railo will make it's way too. Since with the architecture, performance, features and everything else even better in Railo 1.1 the gap to MX 7.0x is not so large anymore. In fact the gap would have to be closed in some cases by the other vendors. But you are definitely right. Railo needs to gain the trust of the users and programmers. I guess we are on the way to do this. At the moment we have a lot of happy customers :-) But it takes time. Allaire hasn't won the market in one day.

In a month or two I'll be getting a dedicated server, and I've had a thought: maybe I should go for the next server spec up, get Railo Enterprise, and offer Railo hosting. (for those unaware of what Railo is, it's a really excellent CFML engine, better than all other CFML engines in nearly every way) Obviously, it would only be useful doing this if there was sufficient demand. So, is there anyone here that would potentially or definitely be interested in such a service? What level of hosting would you need and are there any specific features that you'd want? The server would be in a UK-based data centre, and be running on Linux. As well as Railo it would have PHP5 and MySQL5 - possibly other stuff depending on demand, feasability, etc. If you are potentially interested, or know anyone that might be, please let me know (either here or on cf~bpsite.co.uk) so I can decide how viable it is, and if there is sufficient interest I will work out in more detail what would be on offer and at what cost.

Hi Neil, i can easily post why this is: Railo, for a good reason which I will post down below does not support the following. 1: cfset a = structNew() 2: cfset a[sub.subkey] = John 3: cfset b = a.sub.subkey --- this throwhs an error since a does not contain a key named sub. It just contains a key named sub.subkey. And all the texts in CFFM are defined like this. So I had to write a function for converting the keys into real structs. In fact in the above code in line 2 the statement does not insert a key named sub in the struct a and in the key sub a subkey named subkey. The struct really contains a struct with one single key named sub.subkey. You can easily check this by dumping it out in CFMX. In order for our blog to work I adapted CFFM for Raymond Camden's blog as well, which did not work out of the box as well since it contained some syntax errors which Railo mentions and MX ignores.

Well, this is by no means an indicator of how well or bad CF/Railo performs on the whole with components/structures, there are far too many factors not accounted for and in the authors own words, should be taken with a pinch of salt and are not scientific.

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
Hi Dale, here my comments to your concerns: 1. security Railo does not claim to be absolutely secure in terms of weaknesses or security holes. Nor do we claim to be more secure than other engines in this terms. But just give me your thoughts about these matters: How do you prevent users from different webs in one instance of: - accessing other datasources (without having different db-users etc) - accessing all mappings - accessing all customtags - accessing all cfx-tags - allowing some webs to access the file system and others not - allowing some users to use java objects and others not this is the type of security i addressed. 2. performance I agree on that. I just compared Railo to the existing engines. And we will look for ways of improving performance if MX8 is faster than Railo 1.1 3. pricing I do not know what pricing you relate. Since the enterprise version is much cheaper than the ones of BD and MX. For those who just need the professional version it is the same. And there in addition is the free community version. And yes, we can argue about the features. In fact i see it the other way round. But in addition I have to say that, since I am from Railo :-) Gert Dale Fraser wrote: 1. Security Says Who?

Yes Neil, you are absolutely right. That's what I wrote myself in the comments.

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
Indeed, so if I said ColdFusion was faster than Railo at everything then there would be just as much basis in that - this is my point. I am not putting Railo down in any way, I will never use it, but to say it is faster just on observation is just wrong unless backed up by proper tests and metrics.

Lol, mainly due the fact that as a company we would never move from ColdFusion (too much corporate issues). We looked at BD.NET when we thought we would use more .NET stuff but in the end, there was no need to move and far too much risk.

Yes Neil, you are absolutely right. That's what I wrote myself in the comments. Tests have to be done by independent companies and in addition they have to test a lot of stuff, not only on single issue. And I can not publish such a test as well since an independent company is objective. I would encourage such a test, but I won't do it myself. My quote about performance is just something our customers and as well we seem to see.

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
Gert Franz said: I read all the posts from you guys saying that there should be no reason to host Railo since it is only compatible to version MX 6.1. And you know you are absolutely right, if you do not care for: - security I don't care about security as long as my part in the whole picture is far from the weakest link. And realistically, every CFML runtime is far from the weakest link: users are. - performance I don't care. I really don't. No CFML runtime is magically going to make a database faster. No CFML runtime is magically going to make a remote webservice faster. And those are the types of resources I have performance issues with. - price Not an issue in the market segment I work most of the time. But that is not to say that Railo doesn't have good stuff. The one thing that really stands out is the concept of a site that immediately is a security container for file access. Perfect for shared hosting. I love it. I have even asked Macromedia to copy it. But is simply not relevant in my current work. I think that once Railo 1.1 is out I will put it in the buildfarm again so our applications run automatic regression tests against it. I like having applications that work on more then one runtime so if it is feasible, I will keep an eye open for portability issues. But realistically, I think that it will be years before anything we work with will be deployed on Railo even if we officially support it.

Re: JVM / JRE update
we have cfmx 702 ent running over a newer JVM (-07 or _11) As I understand it, each application has it's own java_home so they should all be able to co-exist When messing around with the java settings, it is wise to back up the xml config files (can't recall which ones) So you can swap them back in if CF doesn't start up again On 2/7/07, Gareth Hughes [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I need to update a customers windows 2003 server to 1.4.2_11 JVM (currently 1.4.2_05 / CF 7.01).

The combination of a open source shared hosting optimized CF runtime is where I see some possibilities. Perhaps if one of the big hosting companies (HMS or GoDaddy seem like likely candidates), would put some resources into developing such a beast, it might have a chance. I'm not sure the community at large has enough momentum to develop a general purpose alternative to CF or BD.

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
A huge difference!! Number one is that you have the entire community helping to develop the project, so bug fixes and features are done in record time instead of waiting on a few developers to bring you the things that you need the most. Why has mySql done so well? Gee I will answer that myself. MySql offers an open source product and were able to grow their client base while at the same time having the people that downloaded their software also develop their software and reduce their costs. Free and closed source simply means that we have to wait for you to implemnt things and that it takes longer for community acceptance.

I'm thinking along the lines of the install adjusting system variables for example. My guess it is should be fine but I'd appreciate other's opinions before I go ahead. It'll be fine.

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
Jim, You might be right, but I also think that if something is open source that the people with the right skill set could very well push along the development of project. Say Joe Blow has been a java developer for ten years and also uses coldfusion, he could very well implement new features and bug fixes that the core dev team did not have time for and allow them to work on other areas. Now depending on how many Joes are out there would decide how fast a product progresses.

Re: FLEX Questions
I use it to make games for my daughter. She doesn't have a game system. When she wants a game she asks me to make it. I'll admit the games I produce are nothing like what you can get for your xbox or PS3, but they tend to be more educational and she gets to help design them. It's also a great feeling for us both to work together on them. We've made games for memory, matching, spelling, counting, math, and Sudoku. Historically I've built the games in CF.

upgrade: custom tags and verity trouble
We upgraded from MX 6.1 to 7 last night, running Linux (Fedoracore 6) and Apache 2.2. Most things went pretty smoothly, but our java CFX's aren't being found. The tags are listed in the administrator as being registered Java CFX tags (I deleted and re-registered one, but it didn't help) and the directory is listed under Custom Tag Paths (the other custom tag directories were still there from before the upgrade. This one was not. I added it and restarted CF. It didn't help.) I verified that the jars are where I say they are, and have correct permissions. I checked the spelling and capitalization in the file name, registration, and calling page. Any idea what I'm missing?

Nestd loop bug with a twist
Hello Forum, I am aware of the bug in regards to an inner loop not being able to access the values in an outer one. It most cases I'd drop a temporary variable right before the inner loop begins so I can reference it inside. What I'm doing now is creating a report from a configuration table that may have additional columns in the future. I run a query from syscolumns to get the list of columns when the report is ran. For the output, is there a way to output a column's value based on the position of the column in the recordset (like an array's index)? The only way I know to output a value is to say #queryName.columnName#. This leads me to cfoutput over the value query, and cfloop over the column query asking for #evaluate(qValues.#qColumns.name#)# where qColumns.name outputs the column's name and the evaluate() outputs the value. The code would work fine if it weren't for CF's nested-loop bug. What happens is the first row's values are repeated for each record which is not the stored data in the database. Any ideas how to either drop a temporary row from the qValues query to reference in the inner loop or access qValues' columns using their ordinal positions? Below is the code: !--- goofs only because of CF bug in nested loops --- table border=1 width=100% tr cfoutput query=qColumnNames td#qColumnNames.name#/td /cfoutput /tr cfoutput query=qValues tr cfloop query=qColumnNames td#evaluate(qValues.#qColumnNames.name#)#/td /cfloop /tr /cfoutput /table Any workarounds appreciated. ~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 MX7 integration create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:268993 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
I did not make your point :) You have to have some sort of niche in order to get your product to be seen as a viable solution/alternative. Who cares if Adobe adopts some of your code if they are still charging $6000 per cpu for enterprise licensing. Your product would be open source and you could still have a enterprise edition that you charge for albeit at a lower price.

CFHTTP and SSL Troubles
I have, what I think is a pretty unique situation that is causing me to rip my hair out. I am working with trying to import a KEYPAIR into CACERTS. To explain a little further. I have a private key file that I created using openssl, then generated a cert request for the company that I am dealing with, to which they gave me a generated cert file back. (Both p7 and crt file) This contains their cert but not my private key. the crt file will import into cacerts, but the privatekey PEM file will not. Ok, fair enough, I tried to create a combined p12 cert with both my private key and then tried to import, to with keytool tells me Unknown key Spec: Invalid RSA modulus size. I also heard somewhere that there is sometimes issues with p12 files importing properly into JRE keystores, so I converted to a DER file and it still won't import to the CACARTS file. Basically, all I am trying to do is make a SOAP request using CFHTTP to a certain WSDL. This particular WSDL needs to have a trusted cert and my PRIVATE KEY to function correctly. Can Coldfusion MX7 handle private keys to handshake a cert? Is there some other way to do it if Coldfusion can't. The kicker is I can get this pairing to work in internet explorer 7 to test the WSDL that I am working with. I even tried to export the cert using internet explorer and tried to import it into cacerts but get the same modulus size error as above.. Sorry if I was a little vaugue about details as I am under an NDA. If you need more detail, just ask and I will do my best to post up. I am at wits end here. Any help would be very appreciated.

RE: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
I think ASP/PHP do have cheaper hosting, and the whole selling point is that it's free. The fact that it will take longer to develop an app is not immediately clear, and neither is that fact that ASP/PHP code is more complicated and therefore will have more bugs. ASP also probably performs better then CF. From what I hear, Bluedragon ..NET performs better then CF, and doesn't have the memory problems that CF does. Also if you want to have any sort of load balanced environment, I believe ASP has it built in somewhere (haven't really looked into it), and it's free, while for CF you have to shell out $12000 (2 Enterprise Licenses). Even if you have a fairly low traffic site, but you would like to have a load balanced environment, it's going to cost you a lot of money to get there. (If you need session replication at least). Also, from what I've been told, session replication doesn't work reliably with CF, although I have not experienced problems myself. Another issue is that it doesn't scale easily. Not that CF can't scale, but if I have an a CF App that cost me $x to develop, and a ASP.NET app that cost me $2x to develop, if I need to scale it out with multiple servers, at some point the cost of the licenses for the new servers outweigh the cost of developing the app in the first place. The fact that you can run CF on linux and forego windows licensing costs offsets this somewhat, but there's still a significant difference. This is most likely why MySpace is moving towards .NET. I don't think PHP has any sort of session management, so it's not even a contender in the enterprise world. Personally, I don't know PHP or ASP.NET, but I should probably start learning them.

Note the F5 BigIP in there --- lots of stuff you can do with that to obscure what's really under the hood. And just because Apache is in there, it doesn't mean it's doing the CF application serving per se -- a very common situation in the Rails world now is to use Apache 2.2 with mod_proxy to load balance between 3-10 mongrel web/ruby servers. So technically the request is coming/going to Apache, but Apache just balances the requests and proxies to what's really serving the pages. It's straightforward to do the same with CF/JRun on the backend.

No, it's quite relevant. From the docs: If you use a cfinvoke or cfobject tag, or the CreateObject function, to access the CFC from a CFML page, ColdFusion searches directories in the following order: 1. Local directory of the calling CFML page 2. Web root 3. Directories specified on the Custom Tag Paths page of ColdFusion MX Administrator Note #2 - if it doesn't find it in the directory of the calling page, it next starts at the web root and works from there.

RE: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
I think that cost is one of the biggest issues. Every other programmer I've spoken with about CF thinks that you have to BUY the server just to host a single CF site. It's like they don't even realize that there might be CF based hosting companies. I also think that while there's a decent amount of KICKING CF projects, there needs to be WAY more, and they need to be way better publicized. Look at the stuff that 37 Signals is doing. They're totally piggybacking on the popularity of Rails and offering up this fantastic software that just works. -Original Message- From: Doug Brown [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 9:30 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?

RE: jQuery??
I've been using jQuery for about 6 months now and I love it. It's got a VERY active community in and of itself, and lately, partly due to my (and Rey Bango's) efforts, it appears that many CF developers are picking up on it. Since you're on the CF-Talk list, you're obviously a CF developer of some level. I'd can't recommend jQuery highly enough.

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
I also think that while there's a decent amount of KICKING CF projects, there needs to be WAY more, and they need to be way better publicized. Look at the stuff that 37 Signals is doing. They're totally piggybacking on the popularity of Rails and offering up this fantastic software that just works. Well, since the guys at 37Signals *created* Rails, it's not a suprise they're piggybacking on it. One of their big talks is about extracting Rails (the framework) from Basecamp (the product). Hype serves them on both sides of the coin -- pushing their framework and their product(s) built on it. And as apparently will be my mission in the CF world, I'll just remind you Rails = framework Ruby = language I'd still say *ruby* is not as popular or well known as *rails* is, and that Ruby is probably comparable in popularity to CF in that it's *way* behind languages like C#, Java, and PHP. Of course *Rails* is probably one of the bigger *frameworks*, right up there with Struts. And finally, it doesn't take a *lot* of kicking ColdFusion sites to get it hyped -- it takes 1 popular, kicking, hyped site. There's a *lot* of Rails sites, but Basecamp is the one most folks know. CF needs a similar exemplar, but it will take the whole package of CF and a framework, etc -- the CF frameworks need a lot more work before they compare to what's hyped about Rails. Flex is far more likely to be able to generate hype IMHO. -- John Paul Ashenfelter CTO/Transitionpoint (blog) http://www.ashenfelter.com (email) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 MX7 integration create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:269018 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

What I'm doing now is creating a report from a configuration table that may have additional columns in the future. I run a query from syscolumns to get the list of columns when the report is ran. For the output, is there a way to output a column's value based on the position of the column in the recordset (like an array's index)?

Also if you want to have any sort of load balanced environment, I believe ASP has it built in somewhere (haven't really looked into it), and it's free, while for CF you have to shell out $12000 (2 Enterprise Licenses). Even if you have a fairly low traffic site, but you would like to have a load balanced environment, it's going to cost you a lot of money to get there. (If you need session replication at least). Also, from what I've been told, session replication doesn't work reliably with CF, although I have not experienced problems myself. Another issue is that it doesn't scale easily. Not that CF can't scale, but if I have an a CF App that cost me $x to develop, and a ASP.NET app that cost me $2x to develop, if I need to scale it out with multiple servers, at some point the cost of the licenses for the new servers outweigh the cost of developing the app in the first place. The fact that you can run CF on linux and forego windows licensing costs offsets this somewhat, but there's still a significant difference. This is most likely why MySpace is moving towards .NET.

Re: Transact-SQL help
Query optimization didn't have anything to do with it. I was running getDistance(zip1,zip2) instead a WHERE IN clause. My getDistance() function, which was based on Russ' would actually do two selects based on the zip code arguments. For example select prospect, name, address, city, state, zip from prospects where zip in ( select zipcode from zipcodes where getDistance(prospects.zip,'27502') 25) Let's say there were 100,000 rows in the prospect table. My original solution would've caused the getDistance() function to be called 100,000 times, and each time it would run two select queries to get the latitude and longitude, and then calc the distance. Effectively running 200,000 little select queries. Indexes weren't going to help =) At any rate, I got everything working super fast and blogged all about it.

MX7+jQuery today versus the future in Scorpio (?)
Hello Folks, This has been at the back of my mind for some time now. Currently, I am investing a bit of time ajax-ifying my CF apps with (the awesome) jQuery library. Now that Scorpio is just around the corner, I am wondering if it (Scorpio) will come with some sort of native support to ajax. If so, I would only assume Adobe to integrate or have some built-in implementation of its own Spry into Scorpio. And if it is, I am just hoping to know to what extent is its implementation, so I know how it may or may not affect me on what I am doing today. I don't want anyone to break any NDAs, but merely trying to find guidance, comments, or suggestions. Much appreciated everyone.

Re: jQuery??
For those of you that are interested in jQuery, I might suggest that you take a look at DomQuery by Jack Slocum. http://www.jackslocum.com/blog/2007/01/11/domquery-css-selector-basic-xpath-implementation-with-benchmarks/ I like DomQuery better than jQuery and its 2 to 3 times faster than jQuery in every task. I wouldn't suggest that anyone rip out existing jQuery implementations, but if you aren't heavily invested, I'd give it a look. Jack's yui-ext library is really kicking some ass.

Re: jQuery??
Hi Judah. This is a bad comparison. DomQuery is a DOM/CSS selector which can be used as an extension to YUI. A true comparison would be DomQuery to jQuery's DOM methods, Dojo's dojo.query() or Dean Edward's cssQuery.

Re: Anyone interested in Railo hosting?
I don't think anyone is saying that PHP is more or less prone to bugs because it's open. PHP (the language) has its own bugs/CF has it's own, but I wasn't talking about the bugs in the language itself. I was talking about bugs in the code. CF is so simple, that a lot of non-technical people learn it and are able to create fairly bug free sites. I was talking about bugs in code too -- SQL injection, XSS, bad logic, etc. And I'd argue personally and professionally using dozens of sites I've been hired to work on as a basis, that since CF *is* so simple, it's more likely that there are deadly bugs in the code -- even now, years into the existence of CF, I see CFQUERY without CFQUERYPARAM around form or url variables. I also see plenty of files uploaded to web accessible directories through web forms. Wow, it sure was easy for the developer to add the capability to hose both the database and the entire server with those bugs respectively. Does that happen in other languages, sure. But easy doesn't mean a thing about bug-free. As I've admitted, I am not very familiar with PHP/ASP, but I do believe that CF does prevent inexperienced developers from making mistakes. Not one bit. There's no automatic type checking. There's no automatic database parameterization. There's no few options for input validation and cleansing built in, etc etc. I'm not arguing that those things are required by a language, but I *am* disputing the assertion that because CF is easy that it prevents inexperienced developers from making mistakes. Truthfully, I'd be more inclined to argue that languages like Java and Python _prevent_ inexperienced developers from making mistakes because many inexperienced developers simply don't understand them :) I don't think I've seen working SQL injection code for CF and MS SQL to date, but I could be wrong... CF auto escapes the query for you, so that the risk of SQL Injection is greatly reduced, if not eliminated. That's ridiculous. CF autoescapes quotes -- that's got *nothing* to do with SQL injection. And it's *easy* to demonstrate it in CF -- here's one from DevNet to get you started http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/cfqueryparam.html Plus If I feel that CF is better, and that PHP and ASP don't come close, that it must be true. And that's the truthiness of it. I appreciate and respect your right to your beliefs -- unfortunately I believe that you shouldn't propose that your ideas or beliefs are facts when it is clear that 30s of google would show them inaccurate. It wastes time, bandwidth, and adds data to the collective mailing list to sort through to get to the real, useful stuff.

Everything else (as far as I am aware) that is in the jQuery library can be found in other parts of the yui-ext library. So perhaps I should have said take a look at the yui-ext library as an alternative. I find that yui-ext really excels when it comes to data driven UI widgets like editable grids, tabbing, tree controls, etc. Enjoy, Judah ~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 MX7 integration create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:269043 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
