Re: CFDirectory on mapped drives
Thanks Russ. I'm not sure what you wanted me to see in that link, maybe the fact that you can have multiple admin logins now? If it's a totally dedicated box and we only have 1 developer's code running, is it still a security risk? I tried running it as a limited account and even set full permissions on every file in the webroot but still got an immediate IIS 500 error until I flipped it to either the local system account or an admin. Thanks!

RE: Verity Collection CF 9.0.1
Hi there. I haven't had that exact problem, but we have used verity a lot over the years. One thing that is typically helpful is looking at the various log files. Verity seems to have a lot of log files but here are some that I have noted over the years (note - these paths are from CF7 but perhaps they are similar in CF9): \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_server1\log\status.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_server1\diag\diag.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\log\staus.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\log\diag.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\host\log\audit.log \CFusionMX7\verity\Data\host\log\status.log Here is one from CF9 that I have used recently: E:\ColdFusion9\verity\Data\services\ColdFusionK2_indexserver1\log\status.log Hope that helps!

Re: CFDirectory on mapped drives
sorry I didn't read all of your post, I see your final paragraph asking if you must do this, and the answer is yes. however do not run CF as an administrator as this will open up your security and allow every cfm page to run with administrator access, you need to run it as a limited user that can only do what you need it to do. see this security white paper http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/pdfs/coldfusion_8_product_security_brief.pdf Russ On Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 6:11 PM, Russ Michaels wrote: > > If you are just using the default installation and running cf as "system" > then you will have problems access network paths. > You need to set CF to run under a user account that have network access. > > Russ > > > On Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 5:40 PM, David McGuigan > wrote: > >> >> I've triple checked that an empty folder on a 2nd server in the same >> datacenter allows full write permissions for any type of user, and have it >> mapped from the CF server.

Re: CFDirectory on mapped drives
If you are just using the default installation and running cf as "system" then you will have problems access network paths. You need to set CF to run under a user account that have network access.

CFDirectory on mapped drives
I've triple checked that an empty folder on a 2nd server in the same datacenter allows full write permissions for any type of user, and have it mapped from the CF server. But when I run cfdirectory calls, for lists it returns an empty query even if there are subfolders or files there, for rename calls it claims that the target subfolder doesn't exist, and for create calls it simply errors: the specified directory could not be created. Is there some best practice way to set this up with CF? Do I have to configure the windows service of the CF box to run as an identical user to one on the recipient box? If so other than making sure it's an administrator is there anything else I need to do?

Re: Clearing session vars and cookies from subdomain
I believe the problem is that when you call the page with cfhttp it is not run in the user's context, but a new context as the server instead. This means that the cfcookie won't work either, since it is trying to send the cookie to the server instead of the user. You could try hidden iframes or maybe ajax calls to update the other domains. ~Mahcsig On Fri, Jul 8, 2011 at 12:00 PM, Gerald Weir wrote: > > Hello, > > We have 3 sites.
