Re: Upgrade From 7.0.2 Standard to 8.0.1 Enterprise

2008-09-28 Thread Matt Quackenbush
Adrian,

Thanks for the info.  The license.properties file tip was brilliant!  Worked
like a charm.  :-)

One note for those who might be doing such an upgrade later

After doing the new install, be sure to copy your CFIDE directory **before**
you uninstall the old version.  After the uninstall, copy the CFIDE
directory back to its desired location.

 install to JRun in production.  Hence my iffiness on the topic.  ;-)

 You can leave CF7 on the server and install CF 8 (multi-instance) without a
 problem. When you first access the CF 8 Admin, it should find the CF7
 settings and import them for you. You should be able to remove CF 7 after
 that since they don't share Windows service names at this point.

 Another option is to find your CF7 license.properties file, remove the
 serial number and restart CF. CF should be running as the developer version,
 which has full Enterprise functionality including the ability to export a
 CAR backup of your admin settings. Export, install CF8 and import the CAR
 file through the CF 8 admin.

 HTH,

Re: Using session variable data to create a chart?

2008-09-28 Thread Azadi Saryev
what Rob, i guess, has implied is: you do not need a query to make a chart.
you can use cfchartdata tags to provide your session data for the chart.

SMS gateway not returning acknowledgment

2008-09-28 Thread Fawzi Amadu
I am using SMS to receive and enter data into my database. After successful 
processing of the data, I send an acknowledgment of receipt of the data sent to 
the recipient. My problem is that the acknowledgment is not being received by 
the simulator even though the data sent through it is properly registered in 
the database.

I am new to ColdFusion and I am having trouble understanding what is the 
Difference between onApplicationStart method and onRequestStart method other 
than the Scope. For Example what does it mean by Application? First time a 

onapplicationstart() runs when the first cfm or cfc is executed in your 
application. onrequeststart() runs every page request. 

Yes, you can set application-wide variables in onapplicationstart(). 

cfset application.dsn = someDSN'

You can use that variable throughout your application, on all pages. 

index.cfm should be able to use:

cfoutput#application.dsn#/cfoutput

Remember, you MUST prefix the scope to the variable name when it comes to 
application variables. Same goes for session variables and some others.

Whenever you're in doubt, dump the whole application scope on a page, like so:

cfdump var=#application#

Check it out and see what's there.

Re: onApplicationStart Vs onRequestStart

2008-09-28 Thread Steve Nelson
OnApplicationStart runs the first time ANY user hits your site. It's
commonly used for setting application variables that rarely change. Things
like datasources are a good place for that or initializing a ton of
cfobjects. I commonly put a cfif statement in my onRequest event to reset
the application variables. like this:

cffunction name=OnRequest
  cfif isDefined(attributes.resetVars)
 cfset onApplicationStart()/
  /cfif
/cffunction

That way if you can rerun the function from any request.

Hi Sherif, 

Welcome to the community. :)

The onApplicationStart and onRequest start events are simply events
which occur at a given time and aren't actually tied to any variable
scopes, other than the fact that onApplicationStart executes immediately
after the application scope is created. But you can do whatever you want
to in that method. For example, you can create request variables in the
onApplicationStart method, even though it executes before onRequestStart. 

So the lifespan of an application looks like this: 

1. onApplicationStart 

2. onSessionStart 

3. onRequestStart 
4. index.cfm
5. onRequestEnd 

6. return to 3 (onRequestStart) and repeat 

7. onSessionEnd - user timed out 
8. return to 2 (onSessionStart) and repeat for other users 

9. onApplicationEnd - application timed out 

10. return to 1 (onApplicationStart) the next time the site is visited

You can use application variables in index.cfm -- they need to be
properly scoped, but if you set them in the onApplicationStart method
they should be available. Your onApplicationStart method may not be
executing if you haven't specified a name for your application. So your
Application.cfc should look similar to this: 

cfcomponent
cfset this.name = myapplication /

cffunction name=onApplicationStart access=public
  cfset application.ds = myDataSource /
/cffunction


/cfcomponent

You can also look to see what variables you have in your application
scope from your index.cfm template by dumping the structure like this: 

cfdump var=#application# /

RE: (ot) Best development laptop

2008-09-28 Thread Andy Matthews
@all...it's a foregone conclusion that I'll be getting a 17 screen.


@Aaron Rouse - I'm 6' 4 and 270 pounds. An extra pound or 4 on my laptop
isn't going to phase me. Especially when I'm already used to lugging around
a Dell Inspiron 6000 at almost 8 pounds.


@JJ - I didn't say apps, I said features. For example, I use these dozens of
times a day.
- Open the standard file dialog box from within any app (on the PC).
+ Click any file, now that file's name appears in the file
name box.
Useful when multiple files need the same base name.
+ Click any file, then hit F2 to rename a file inline.
+ Click any file, then CTRL + drag to duplicate that file.
+ Click any file, anywhere else on your computer (desktop
for example),
drag it into the file dialog. That file now has a
new home.
+ Click any file, CTRL + drag it to your desktop.
You now have a dupe file available to you.

- I don't like the keyboard. I have big hands and I can reach nearly
all the way
  across the keyboard on my PC with my hands in a normal typing
position. Because
  you have to use your thumb to toggle the Apple key, it cuts my
reach (in a
  normal typing position) by about 1/3.

Those are the big ones. Really they're little ones, but they're hugely
impactful to my workflow.

I used to say this all the time until I got a Dell M90 a little over a year

 The weight of it along with its power adapter and any other misc. stuff one
would carry does not seem too bad at first but if you end up having to
travel or walk between a lot of places you quickly realize how heavy the
thing is.  I do not mind the machine as far as how it performs, I think the
only option they paid for was 4GB of RAM but unsure what speed machines they
bought.  After having it for so long I'd rather have a beefy workstation and
a slimmer laptop for when I go to meetings.

Re: onApplicationStart Vs onRequestStart

2008-09-28 Thread James Holmes
The whole point of putting variables into the application scope is to cache
them so you don't have to set them on every request.

The reason your variables didn't get set after you added new ones was that
your application had already started; OnApplicationStart doesn't run on
every request.

Re: Windows 2003 + CF8 = 401.3 Error

 task is to individually connect IIS site definitions to CF 8 as needed which 
 I assumen can be acheived
 by simply changing the application extensions associated with CF 6.1 to the

Well, not exactly. By default, CF 6.x and CF 8 use a combination of
ISAPI filters and wildcard extensions; it's not as simple as changing
file extension mappings. However, assuming that you want to have CF 6
work with one IIS virtual server and CF 8 work with another, you can
certainly do that. Just run the web server configuration utility for
each, and map it to one IIS virtual server. You might find it useful
to turn off CF 8 while you're setting IIS up with CF 6, and vice
versa.

 I have to say the Adobe documentation could be more clear on the differences 
 between standalone
 and multiserver which I do not really understand.. but here is my stab at it..

 Can I assume that you use multiserver when you want multiple instances of CF

There are lots of reasons why you might want to run multiple instances
of CF. Here are a couple:

1. You can run different versions of CF simultaneously.
2. You can map different CF instances to different applications or
virtual web servers, providing isolation so that if one fails the
others keep running.
3. You can work around the memory allocation limitations of 32-bit
JVMs to more efficiently use the physical memory on your servers.
4. You can cluster multiple instances to provide failover within a
single physical server.
5. You can build applications for deployment as EAR files, which is a
nice Java standard for web applications.
