End of an era
Reply from 206.180.224.36: bytes=32 time=21ms TTL=119 Request timed out. Request timed out. I shut down a very faithful NT 4 Oriellys Website Pro Cold Fusion 4.01 MS SQL 7.0 server today..its been amazingly rock solid and moving large amounts of data without a glitch for many years now. It went over 16 months without a single reboot, pretty amazing for Windows server. This box is from before the cftalk era when ColdFusion was supported on the WSPRO list and Denny used to field many of the questions, then Tak at smokescreen.org ran the list during the WSP breakup. Dinowitz then seemed to spring up out of no where and here we are...Those were fun days. I still have the T-shirt that came with Dennys WSP, never worn. Its good to see some of the original group still here fielding questions. Cheers to you all!

CFFILE and spaces in file name (Not Upload)
I am cleaning up an older site that has grown a bit out of control with all images being dumped into a single directory. Almost all the filenames have a space in them. I am trying to use CFFILE action=move to clean things up but apparently CFFILE does not like the spaces in the file names. Any clever ways around this? As I type this I am thinking I could use CF to write a CMD script and then just run it in good old DOS prompt since its a one time thing. I would rather not do this as I plan to update a DB field as the script process's so I know where I am when it times out.. ManCF has come so far since the Bob Denny days, but then the simplest things choke it. ~Adrian ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:353916 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
processing within modal window
I have a summary type page and I would like to drill down into detail of a record using a modal window. What is the preferred method not to reload the summary page but open the modal window that possibly cfincludes another template that I pass a few parameters too? The way I see it now modal windows are just hidden and all the processing is done upon the first load of the page. I need to do some processing within the loaded page almost like an old school popup.

cfobject
Can multiple connects to the same object within a single template cause any problems? I use try/catch to determine if the object is already created, then connect as needed, but in a particular template I may be connecting more than once to the same object depending on a few variables.

CF sniffer
In CF 4.01 is there anyway to see what templates the engine is processing.? I have a situation where CF starts queuing requests and is stuck processing the max requests (3), it never finishes and the requests keep queuing until I restart CF. Based on all the logs it does not appear to be any particular template, there is basically no DB access at that time and the CPU is practically idle. I cant figure out what the heck the thing is doing or waiting on. Adrian __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com. The place for dependable ColdFusion Hosting.

Server Settings
Ive been trying to isolate some CF lockups that we have been receiving since I rolled out a new application. The new app uses CFOBJECT to call a custom COM which I believe is the culprit. Im curious on the following settings: Limit simultaneous requests: 5 Ive always had this set to 5 and seemed to work well prior to the new app being rolled out. Restart at 10 unresponsive requests: I guess this is actually defaulting to 5. It appears my COM is stalling (based on server.log). Usually when the unresponsive thread count reaches 2-3 I need to manually stop and restart CF, then all is ok. Sometimes I see that CF restarts itself (Unresponsive thread threshold reached. Restarting Service). When CF restarts itself it appears to be transparent as I dont receive the Server is busy blah blah message as when I manually stop/start CF, is this true?. Until I can resolve my COM problem is it recommended to set the unresponsive requests to say 2, what would a recommended setting for this be.? Additionally, if I receive the A request exceeded the timeout. The unresponsive thread count is up to 1. message, do I now only have 4 possible threads to process under or is the stalled thread released? When I receive the A request exceeded the timeout. The unresponsive thread count is up to 1. message, this it is not logged in the application.log and I dont receive an error, it just appears to be a runaway task. If this is the case would it be useless to wrap the process in a CFTRY/CATCH module?

must be a better method
Im generating a summary report but the current method Im using could result in up to 100 queries or more...so this is what Im trying to achieve. Basically dealing with two fields, Carrier and Date. The user selects a date range, I need a count all the records for each day within the range grouping by the Carrier. Currently I create a list of Carrier's then loop thru, within the loop I CFQUERY and get counts for each carrier for that single day (inner loop), well this results in tons of queriesand could potentially be really slow depending on the date range although I limit to 31 days. Output needs to look like this: CARRIER DATE1 DATE2 DATE3 carr1 n n n carr2 n n n carr3 n n n carr4 n n n Any recommendations on how to speed this up with perhaps a single query? and if thats possible how would I CFOUTPUT to get the above results.

RE: must be a better method
Thanks, this seems to be working well although the output format isnt really what I wanted but I can work around that. The other issue I have now using this method is the grouping is also including the times from the date field, I only want to group on the mmdd portion. I know I need to use DatePart but cant seem to get it to work with the GROUP BY. Any tips This is basically the query Im using... SELECT carrier,mydate,count(mydate) AS totals FROM mytable WHERE mydate BETWEEN '05/1/2002 00:00' AND '05/15/2002 23:59' GOUP BY carrier,mydate ORDER BY carrier,mydate Thanks,Adrian -Original Message- From: Jeffry Houser [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 24, 2002 1:06 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: must be a better method At 12:47 PM 5/24/2002 -0700, you wrote: Im generating a summary report but the current method Im using could result in up to 100 queries or more...so this is what Im trying to achieve. Basically dealing with two fields, Carrier and Date. The user selects a date range, I need a count all the records for each day within the range grouping by the Carrier. I'm not sure if you want: A single count for the specified date range. So, if the range is June 1st through July 1st, you will get 1 count per carrier. Or A count for each day in the specified range. So if the range is June 1st through July 1st, you will get 30 counts per character. This might take some experimentation, but.. something along the lines of: SELECT Count(CarrierTable.DateField) as DateCount, Carrier, DateField FROM CarrierTable WHERE DateField BETWEEN StartDate and EndDate GROUP BY CarrierTable.Carrier, DateField Something like this (off the top of my head ) should give you the output you need: table cfoutput query=MyQuery group=Carrier trtd#MyQuery.Carrier#/tdtd tabletr cfoutput td#MyQuery.DateCount#/td /cfoutput /tr/table /td/tr /cfoutput /table But this could potentially cause problems matching up carriers with date columns if it is possible that a single carrier will have no entries on a date. __ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists

Ive never used triggers, wouldn't I still have to write some SQL code to do the INSERET? -Original Message- From: Andrew Scott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Is this SQl 2000, then why not use a trigger? -Original Message- From: Adrian Cesana [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] I have 2 tables with the same structure, I need to duplicate (INSERT) a record from table1 to table2 using CF. Only way I know of would be to SELECT * then write an INSERT that contained every field. These tables have almost 200 fields, is there some better method of doing this?

pausing
I have a template that updates a few records then a backend process grabs the information and also performs an update. The backend process usually takes between 5-20 seconds. Whats the best method of pausing? I want to pause for 5 seconds issue a message and then after 5 seconds run query to see if the backend process completed, if NO issue another message, pause again for 5 etc.. Ill do this up to 30 seconds if no response than I will end the pause/loop and issue a message. I was thinking about just running a cfloop but I am told this will pin my CPU at 100%.

RE: SQL UPDATE

And I would also run Dave's example, (SELECT LEFT(123456,3) + '1' + right(123456, len(123456) -4) as test) to see if the problem is specific to your table, or if it's the syntax that's bombing.

On some users PC the form gets cleared on other PC's it does not. I also use some of the CF built in validation (_required) so the user has to use the browser back button, same thing happens on some of these peoples browsers. Of coarse it does not happen on mine. I setup a few test forms for the problems users and it things work ok.

The reason why it returns 1 is your date mask; all your outputting in that instance is one digit of the year; "" will return "2001".

RE: JOIN and SUM
I need to select multiple fields from the master, here would be a better example: SELECT m.pon,m.podate,m.carrier,SUM(d.qty) AS TotalPoQty FROMmaster m, detail d WHERE m.podate BETWEEN 12/15/2000 AND 12/30/2000 AND m.pon = d.pon GROUP BY m.pon This I know doesnt work and I get the same type of ODBC error. Is this something that needs to be done in a Sub-Query? Thanks,Adrian -Original Message- crap. of course i forgot that part. you should/can group by them. it will select all the ponumbers in master. what do you mean by "select multiple items from master as well"? chris olive, cio -Original Message- The problem with this is ODBC says m.ponumber is invalid in the select list because it is not part of the aggregate functionI guess I could use GROUP BY but I really need to select multiple items from the master as well -Adrian -Original Message- are you sure you want sum? or just a count of the entries in detail that are for PO number? try SELECT m.ponumber, sum(whatever field you are summing) as thecount FROM master m, detail d WHERE m.ponumber = d.ponumber if you DON'T want sum, replace it with count(d.ponumber). chris olive, cio -Original Message- Im joining a master and detail table, the relationship is a PO Number. The Detail table contains quantities that I need the SUM of for each instance of the matching PO in the Master table. I know how to do the JOIN but how do I get the SUM portion, can this be done within the JOIN query? Example: - Master Table PO A123456 B123456 - - Detail Table PO QTY A123456 2 A123456 5 A123456 6 B123456 8 - Output needs to look like this: A123456 13 B123456 8 Thanks,Adrian ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: JOIN and SUM
Ok, this is working. I thought that if I GROUPed on all those fields I would end up NOT getting ALL the master records but after testing it appears to be working ok. In my summary report I will be dumping out about 15 fields from the master table, it seems like alot of fields to be GROUPing on, is this not a good thing to do? I guess it also depends on the data.. Thanks,Adrian -Original Message- From: Christopher Olive, CIO [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] no, you can group by all those fields. this will give you a list of all ponumbers, their dates, the carrier, and the quantity shipped for each combination of these three. chris olive, cio ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

floating heading
I have several pages that dump out summary reports in a table, I place the headings on top and every x amount of rows based on what the user selects..This seems to work well when your scrolling thru a few hundred records. One of our larger customers does not like this and wants "floating heading", I thought about using frames but that could get ugly. Ive seen some JavaScript that floats things usually on the side of a page and thought that may be usable. Also thought about CFGRID, how does it handle several hundred records and can I config it so it will do next nn type of thing? If there are some browser specific features I can probably lay the law down on whats supported. Looking for ideas on this. Thank you,Adrian ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: ColdFusion to make bar codes
It sounds like you want to roll your own code on this but I just wanted to let you know in case you were not aware, there are a few barcode Custom Tags available. Ive used two different ones and they both work excellent. The two Ive used both use images, one of the tags even lets you display the BC vertically. -Adrian ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: OT: Mac images won't open on a PC
If the problem end up being because the disk is MAC formatted then there is a great product from DataViz.com for this type of thing. They have a few products that can help you with opening MAC formatted disks etc...MAC Opener will do it or the more expensive Conversions Plus can do it and more.

ver 4, 0, 1, 0 upgrade to 4.5 ?
I am running CF ver 4, 0, 1, 0 and all is well. I dont really currently have a need for any features in 4.5 that I am aware of and all is running well. Is there any reason I should upgrade to 4.5 ?

RE: Automatic repair and compact
To use the "batch" method you will need to HAVE Access installed on the server. The CF_EXECUTE/CFX_ConsoleCommand just allows you to execute the batch file. Depending on your envirnoment you may have neither of these available to you as well. -Adrian -Original Message- From: monika kon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2000 7:46 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Automatic repair and compact Hi, I don't have DAO installed.I was going to install Access on my server.Can you please guide me how to use CF_EXECUTE or CFX_CONSOLECOMMAND.So that I won't have to install Access.
