Coldfusion 9 standard license on Tomcat
Hi, I have a question about Coldfusion 9 deployed on a Tomcat server. Is it possible to install Coldfusion 9 standard on a tomcat server? The installation can be done with the enterprise edition...

Re: Coldfusion 9 standard license on Tomcat
I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong, but I am 99.999% sure that you cannot deploy a CF Standard license on anything but JRun, since it is installed as a standalone application server under the Std. license. Now then, perhaps one could rip apart the installer and figure out how to create a single EAR/WAR for deployment on Tomcat, Resin, Jetty, Glassfish, etc., but I would venture a guess that that would be in severe violation of the Standard license agreement. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:337249 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
RE: Coldfusion 9 standard license on Tomcat
No this is very spot on, the problem is that a multi-server instance is a J2EE application, and the license will not cover this in anyway shape or form. So even trying to deploy an instance on JRun it has to be deployed as an ear/war file, and this requires an enterprise license if you want to use it outside of developer mode.

Re: .NET DLL driving me nuts....
We were able to determine, that the calls to sample functions that don't work
on our development server, does in fact work on our pre-production server.
So far so good I guess, but now I am facing a new problem - it seems that CF
caches the functions in the DLLs, so that it doesn't reflect the changes when I
change a function and (re)call it.
Can you elaborate on goes awry ie What is the actual error message?
Example:
cfset obj = createObject(.net, MyLibrary.TestClass, ExpandPath('.
/MyLibrary.dll')) /
cfset result = obj.getValue(Foo) /
cfoutput#result#/cfoutput
TestClass.cs
=
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
namespace MyLibrary
{
public class TestClass
{
public string getValue(string Value)
{
return You entered: + Value;
}
}
}

RE: Using a CSV as a datasource (CF8)
Tim, Can you verify that the ODBC data source works using another client? Excel? MS Access? I would do that first. It could be that you used a path when setting up the datasource that caused problems... Cheers, Hugo Tim Claremont wrote on 2010-09-20: I have a badge reader that hangs on the network. It collects magnetic stripe scans to a CSV file located on the server. I need to get this into a SQL Server db ideally. I created the ODBC text data source on the server. When I attempt to add the data source in the ColdFusion administrator, it tells me: Connection verification failed for data source: BadgeScanner java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path.

I suspect my connection string for the data source in the administrator needs to be populated. Right now it is blank.

ORM and many to many relationships
I have posted about this on my blog, but if anyone here could give their
opinion I would very much like to hear it.
I am trying to understand if I am looking at ORM correctly in terms of a
many-to-many relationship.
blog post is here
http://www.cfcoffee.co.uk/index.cfm/2010/9/20/Head-Spin-Moment-ORM-manytomany-Help
for the sake of cftalk I have posted again below. thanks :)
Below I have two tables. Users and Monsters. A user can have many monsters, and
a monster can have many users. Therefore I have a many-to-many relationship.
Now I decide to include a join table called mostercollected to normalise the
table somewhat. So below is what I come up with.
/**
* user
*/
component output=false persistent=true {
property name=user_id column=user_id type=numeric
ormtype=int fieldtype=id generator=increment;
property name=user_name column=user_name
type=string ormtype=string;
/* link tables */
property name=monsters fieldtype=many-to-many
CFC=monsters FKColumn=user_id singularname=monsters
inversejoincolumn=monster_id linktable=monstersCollected;
users function init() output=false{
return this;
}
}
/**
* monsters
*/
component output=false persistent=true {
property name=monster_id column=monster_id type=numeric
ormtype=int fieldtype=id generator=increment;
property name=monster_name column=monster_name type=string
ormtype=string ;
/* link tables */
property name=users fieldtype=many-to-many CFC=users
FKColumn=monster_id singularname=monsters
inversejoincolumn=user_id linktable=monstersCollected;
monsters function init() output=false{
return this;
}
}
/* Join table */
component entityname=UserMonster persistent=true accessors=true
table=monstersCollected
{
property name=user_id
fieldtype=id,many-to-one
cfc=users
cascade=all
fkcolumn=user_id;
property name=monster_id
fieldtype=id,many-to-one
cfc=monsters
cascade=all
fkcolumn=monster_id;
}
Now if I dump a user to screen, yes I can see all the monsters that each user
has (cool), but the array continues down more, showing all monsters and all
users that belong to that monster, effectively repeating data (bad, right?).
My concern is that of performance. If every time I want to get a user and I
then get monsters + monster again and users that belong to that monster (head
spin, moment), this seems like a lot of overhead (or is it?).
Is this the issue I am making it out to be?

Re: ORM and many to many relationships
What you see in the cfdump is not what's actually called when you get a
user. When you cfdump an ORM entitiy, it tries to show _everything_. You can
control how many levels are displayed by using the top attribute.
PS. There is an CF ORM specific google group that you may find useful.

btw a backup is to also have a CFERROR or default error template so u can catch cfcatch errors We have a cferror on the application page and that is catching it at the end. what I did was I did not know that there was an option to set the timeout at the cfinvoke calls. ends up one of the webservice took forever!!! over 45 seconds to process sometimes so the page was timing out based on the cfadmin setting of 60 seconds.

Re: Shorter URLs - How?
If you are bound, bent and determined to do this in CF simply have a url parser in your app.cfc. However this is really best left to URL rewriting via the webserver.

The best approach for this would be to use a URL rewriting tool such as ISAPI_REWRITE. That's an IIS thing.

Re: Shorter URLs - How?
IIS7 has a built in url rewriter, so no need to isapi_rewriter. It works very similar to the mod_rewrite for apache in that the rewrite rules are store din a file within your website root called web.config, so it is portable between servers running IIS7+ If you want it to be portable betweeen any server\OS then you should do it in CFML. more info: http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/460/using-the-url-rewrite-module/ Russ On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at 4:32 PM, Michael Grant mgr...@modus.bz wrote: Doing it with pure ColdFusion, the best thing you could hope for is http://www.scribblar.com/index.cfm/k3ns5 Untrue.

Re: ORM and many to many relationships
When you cfdump an ORM entitiy, it tries to show _everything_. You can control how many levels are displayed by using the top attribute. I agree that writedump really can be problematic when working with ORM objects...but I've not seen that the top attribute helps. According to the docs, it sets levels for structures...not objects. And that's been my experience as well, it doesn't do anything for ORM objects if you are trying to dump them without converting to something else first (some of my objects just crash the server if I try to dump them due to this).

However this is really best left to URL rewriting via the webserver. I would also argue that it's not really bad to do URL rewriting within CF instead of in the web server. Sure, there may be high traffic situations where you're trimming miliseconds, but for most cases CF URL rewriting is a perfectly valid option. And many people would prefer to have all of their application configuration in one place, instead of needing to go to multiple places to maintain app level settings. Also, say you need to move the app to a different server or host. If you use web server URL rewriting, you'll need to set that up again on the new server.

Re: Shorter URLs - How?
Meh, the syntax is nearly identical between the different options. It would take anyone with half a brain all of about an hour to switch the rewrite rules over from apache to IIS or vice versa. Sure it's personal preference I guess but I generally try to use the right tool for the job. Data processing is best left to databases. URL rewriting is best left to the server.

Re: Shorter URLs - How?
Assuming your pages are in a database-driven system, then the custom 404 is largely just an extension of ColdFusion serving pages: which page? dunno, lemme check the aliases, ah, there it is ... this page. Web server rewrite is fine, too, but if the code is already running in CF to determine what gets served, as it is in any front-side controller framework, then it's not much different to have a custom 404 as a simpler version of the controller.

Re: Shorter URLs - How?
Not to argue, because you make good points, but just about every shared host I've ever used gives you a mechanism for url rewrite. In fact most offer really well documented steps on how to do it too. I think it's probably equally as hard for a new dev to understand url rewriting as it is to understand how to set up a custom 404 handler and then a url parser based off of the cgi scoped vars etc etc. Further I think you'd find that Google will return many many more walk throughs on web server url rewriting vs coldfusion rewriting. Six of one, half dozen of the other. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Using CF to manage ads shown on Blogger

Re: Shorter URLs - How?
If you are doing it in cf then that means you are using IIS (or *nix equiv) to return a cf page for processing when it determines the file is not there. If you do it right you return the proper response in the cfheader for the url (mydomain.com/tinyurl). If you don't do it right the spider gets the content of the url that it hit but gets 404 as the response from the server. That's bad. If you rewrite using the webserver you get the same result as the 'right' approach above. At least that's my understanding.

Re: Shorter URLs - How?
Well not to get to technical but cf actually sees the rewritten URL. The bots see the seo URL before it is rewritten You're right, I was thinking the wrong direction. :) ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:337292 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Using CF to manage ads shown on Blogger
Strictly speaking, a CF page that returns a JPG via CFCONTENT is a JPG from the client's perspective.

Struct for Applicaton Datasource setting
I posted this over on the CF-ORM list on google, but not much luck, so thought
I'd see if any of you smart HOF folks know. ;-)
According to the CF 9.01 release notes, you can now use a structure
for setting the application.datasource setting. I really would like to
do this for an ORM application I'm doing, as we use a single Oracle
database for our servers, and each application has its own
schemaso typically we just have one db and each application
has a specific username/password to connect to its own schema. But there
doesn't seem to be any documentation or example anywhere on how to do this, and
I'm not having much luck trying to figure it out. I tried this:
this.datasource = {datasource = 'oracle_db', username='schema',
password='password' } ;
And all I got was an error from ColdFusion that it couldn't cast a
struct to a string. So clearly that's not the way to do it.
So any idea how to do this?
