Re: CF7 Enterprise Manager timeouts
>You need to switch the timeout off to be guaranteed of it definately >completing. Obviously on a more powerful machine you won't get this >issue. Thanks, that did the trick! I'd set the timeout to 900 seconds initially and it seemed to timeout well before that which is a little strange. I unchecked the box and tried to add the instance again and it completed in about 7 mins (420 seconds). A little strange that it didn't work the first time but no biggie. >Being that you're not supposed to use the default "cfusion" instance >in production this "shouldn't" cause you any problems :) This is just a laptop for presentations and only has 256 MB of RAM.

CF7 Enterprise Manager timeouts
I have CF 7.01 in JRun multiserver mode running on an older laptop that we use for presentations. I'm trying to create a new CF instance using the Enterprise Manager in the CF admin. It runs for a while and then errors out somewhere during step 3 out of 4 (Deploying). This is the error message I receive: "" The request has exceeded the allowable time limit Tag: cfoutput "" Is there any way to increase the timeout for this operation so that it can complete successfully? I increased the request timeout on the settings page to 900 seconds but this particular page doesn't seem to respond to that threshold anyhow... I'm assuming it might have the request timeout manually set in the CF code running it. Thanks so much for any help/suggestions. -Cliff ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:229506 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Client side encryption (like CF7 Admin) in CF6.1
I noticed that on the admin login page for CF7 that there is some nifty client-side Javascript that encrypts your string using the SHA-1 algorithm. Presumably after the form posts to the server CF is using one of the new encryption algorithms available in 7.0 to decrypt the information and check against the admin password.

Re: flash forms don't show
I don't believe that ColdFusion actually writes any of those files to the filesystem. Rather, I think the embedded Flex engine that generates these SWFs are routed through a Servlet that grabs the request based on the file type requested and "streams" the SWF directly to the browser. Can you post the full HTTP headers from each response to the ColdFusion template you're calling? What I want to see is what URLs the browser is requesting based on the URL that you're actually invoking from the browser itself. -Cliff On 5/7/05, Alexander Appleton IV <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > so far.. that hasn't worked.. the http requests are dif.. one returns > a 410 (the bad one..) > > BAD: > > http://localhost/projects/horatio/1034593532.mxml.cfswf > GET /projects/horatio/1034593532.mxml.cfswf HTTP/1.0 > HTTP/1.x 410 Unknown > Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.1 > > GOOD: > > http://localhost/projects/horatio/includes/941399296.mxml.cfswf > GET /projects/horatio/includes/941399296.mxml.cfswf HTTP/1.0 > HTTP/1.x 200 OK > Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.1 > > I do have the debugging for flash on.. but do not really see anything > relating to it in the debugging output... > On 5/7/05, C.

This should be a rare thing in the session scope, but if its > there you *will* have to lock the writes (only) to the session scope. (Slightly OT) This is something I've wondered about for a while. It's obvious why you need to CFLOCK writes to the application scope since there are likely to be many users accessing application scope variables all over the place. I've heard that locking session variables is important if you use frames or if a user were to repeatedly hit the refresh button on a page where session variables are written to unlocked. My question is, does CFLOCK scope=session type=exclusive impact performance significantly? Or for that matter, would a type=readonly impact it as well? I don't know enough about CFLOCK and whether it's locking just that users' spot of shared memory or the entire area of shared memory where session vars are stored. If it's the former I'd guess the performance impact is negligible, and in the case of the latter I'd guess it's significant. I've gotten in the habit of locking session variables EVERYWHERE because of the serious concerns pre-MX, but if this is having a negative impact on performance I'm not aware of I'd appreciate it if someone would let me know - thanks :) -Cliff ~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:205970 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Re: flash forms don't show
Are the HTTP request headers generated identical when you call it the normal vs. SES way? You might be able to use the HTML BASE tag to help you out here.

This one raises a red flag to me. If I'm not mistaken, the client variables get updated (at a minimum) once per page view, since there is a "last visited" variable that would presumably get set each time. And then of course the client variables need to be read into memory each time as well. I'd say this might be a quick and easy fix that you could make right off the bat to see if it helps out. Ultimately, we should try to find a way to get your mean CPU and memory usage higher if possible. ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

Re: flash forms don't show
Maybe you can check your web server logs (or HTML source) to see what URL is actually being requested by the browser when it tries to pull in the Flash form?

Re: Scheduled Task Listing
Michael, Since you're on a shared server, the CF server is going to treat your scheduled task just like anyone else's. If you use a consistent naming convention for your tasks you could do some filtering after the fact. It's not bullet proof but maybe it'd work for you. Ex: If you have scheduled tasks in the CF Admin named like so... mike - task 1 mike - task 2 mike - task 3 Then just modify your code like this #allTasks[i].task# HTH, Cliff On 5/5/05, WebStop Internet Services <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Is there a way to show the scheduled task for a particularly named task? > > Say, I name all my tasks "Scheduled Task (variable number)" > > How would I display all of the tasks with the name that started with > the words "Scheduled Task"? > > I have this so far, but I am on a shared server and other people's tasks are > showing up and I only want to display the ones for the application I created > that names them "Scheduled Task 1, Scheduled Task 2" etc... > > Here is what I use to display currently scheduled tasks: > > > > How do I discriminate between mine and everyone else's on the server? > > Michael Pool > Lowcountry Computers > http://www.LowcountryComputers.com > > ~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:205805 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

OT: Connecting Flex with Databases
Matt, There are three ways to connect to "data" in Flex: 1. HTTPService 2. WebService 3. RemoteObject (Java only) An HTTPService call is as simple as specifying a URL that returns XML data. This could be any kind of page... a CFM, JSP, ASP... even a flat XML file. WebService can use any SOAP or REST web service. These can be implemented in any language that supports web services... Java, .NET... and of course oru wonderful CFCs. :) RemoteObject is used to directly call a compiled Java class that sits on the same server as Flex. It's very powerful because you're not using web services as at, it's actually a binary protocol called AMF and it's supposedly a good deal faster than web service calls as well. However it natuarlly imposes a lot of limitations and it's basically worthless if all you do is write ColdFusion. Whichever of the 3 methods above you choose, they have to connect to your DB, pull out the data and return XML to the Flash Player client. WebService and RemoteObject essentially handle this for you, but if you aren't comfortable working with them then you *could* set up CFM pages that would spit out XML... but the power there is a lot more limited. If you're interested in Flex, check out the Flex book by MM press and "Essential Actionscript 2.0" by Moock. They're both solid. Also tomlink.net has some good resources for some of the nuances you'll run into when working with Flex. And if you can afford the training from MM... go for it. I just finished the 3 course last week and learned A LOT! Also there is a useful mailing list called "Flexcoders" over at Yahoo Groups. Good luck :) -Cliff Subject: OT: Connecting Flex with Databases From: Mark Drew <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2005 08:29:39 +0100 Thread: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm/method=messages&threadid=39940&forumid=4#205044 Sorry for the off-topic I have been playing with flex, and one thing that is missing from my brain is how I can connect it to a database.

adminapi and j2ee packaging
Steve, I suppose now that I've thought about it more it does make sense: using Ant to build the .war files from .cfm template collections should work fine provided that you give Ant the correct classpaths it needs to find all the Java libraries that implement the CF runtime. Although it violates my sense of a truly "clean" deployment where each ..war takes exactly what it needs, I'm not too worried that there are extra datasources and such in the .war file. We'll likely be doing sourceless deployment anyways which means that if anyone were to try and edit code on our test, QA, stage or production servers that they'd have a heck of a time :) In the end I think I'll be very happy to use Ant. We are a pretty large shop with many, many Java developers that have expertise in these sorts of things. We're in the process of shifting all our developers over to a local CF developer edition and then using Subversion for version control (finally). The new features available in CF7 gave me an opportunity to find a more regimented technique for building out of SVN.

Re: adminapi and j2ee packaging
Does Ant have the "awareness" to take a directory full of .cfm's and bundle it into a .war file? What about things like datasources, custom tag paths, mail server settings, etc etc? I'll admit I don't know a lot about the Ant tool, but it just doesn't seem intuitive to me that it would be able to do that on its own. I know that the entire CF app server is a J2EE app, but the process that MM uses to build that tool must have some intelligence as to the Java libaries that CF uses to do its thing, etc. If someone from MM can yell at me and tell me I'm wrong, I'd be thrilled! >Cliff, I'm interested why you want to use CFCs to automate this process when >there are already other powerful tools that will do this for you.

adminapi and j2ee packaging
(I posted this on the MM forums too... very curious if anyone has an answer) I want to access the Packaging & Deployment area of the CF Administrator programatically so that we can automate the building of CFapps into .war files.

cftransaction behavior
I've noticed some behavior from CFTRANSACTION that I wouldn't quite expect. Here is some pseudo code: """ CFSET transactionSuccess=false CFTRANSACTION action=BEGIN CFTRY many CFQUERY tags CFSET transactionSuccess=true CFCATCH CFTRANSACTION action=ROLLBACK /CFCATCH /CFTRY CFIF transactionSuccess CFTRANSACTION action=COMMIT /CFIF /CFTRANSACTION """ If I comment out the "CFTRANSACTION action=COMMIT" tag and the query completes without errors, the data is still written to the database. Shouldn't I have to explicitly use COMMIT in order for the data to be saved? At first glance it seems that the only time I'd want to ROLLBACK is in the event of an error, but if this is the expected behavior I'm not sure why I'd ever need to use CFTRANSACTION action=COMMIT. Anyone have any ideas? I'm using CFMX 6.1 on Solaris 9 with Oracle 9i Release 2. -Cliff ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

Re: CFCs and webroots

Thanks for responding! So just to make sure I'm clear on what you mean, going
back to my prior example...
(vhost) http://www.test.com -> /sites/site1
(alias) http://www.test.com/othersite -> /sites/site2
If I make a call like:
createObject("component","SomeFramework.SomeComponent")
from within the context of "/othersite" it means that ColdFusion will be "smart
enough" to look here for my CFC?
/sites/site1/SomeFramework/SomeComponent.cfc
I can drop MachII in my custom tags folder and (as you'd expect) CF can always
find it, but if I want to write two separate apps and have them share CFCs
between the two it'd be convenient to if CF did have the functionality I
described...
Thanks again!

cfchart and cfchartdata question. Kindly help!
You should be able to accomplish what you're looking for just by adding 3 data series to the chart you're building. The most straightforward way to do it would probably be to modify your stored procedure to take another input parameter called "status" so you could view the results for a particular status type. Then drop all 3 sets of results into the chart as their own series. The attribute for CFCHART you'll want to play around with is "seriesPlacement" which can have values of "default, cluster, stacked, percent." That will control how the different data points get displayed.

Guys, Another option is to find a tool that can map a remote site (via FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, etc) to a mapped drive on Windows. I found one called WebDrive which does the job nicely. Unfortunately it costs $40 but if you have a little cash to drop it's a nifty tool: http://www.webdrive.com I just create a CFML or Simple Project with Eclipse, and then when it asks me where to save the files, I just browse to the network drive. If you're on Linux or another OS where open source protocol tools are more readily available you probably wouldn't even need WebDrive. -Cliff ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.

I tried varying the type in CFCONTENT as well and continued to get the same result over and over. It's maddening... this behavior only slows up when you mix Windows IE, SSL and IIS. For cripe's sake, it works on the *Mac* flawlessly! Can anyone recommend a good tool (either standalone or plugin for IE) that will allow me to see the HTTP response headers for a particular request? That way I could at least compare the headers generated for a "regular" file download and then tweak my CFHEADER statement(s) to match. Thanks a bunch. -Cliff ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - New Atlanta http://www.newatlanta.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187342 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
REPOST: CFHEADER/CFCONTENT over SSL on IIS with IE
Hey guys, I posted this on Friday, didn't get a response. Figured I'd try it again. I have a simple text file that I want to force-download for users of a web application. I've set up the following code: When I run the code in IE, I get the "File Download" dialog box as you'd expect. When I either try to open or save the file, I get this error message: "Internet Explorer cannot download act_download_key.cfm from www.anyhost.com. Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site... blah blah" This site is being served over HTTPS. When I adjust the IIS configuration to allow requests over HTTP, the code magically works without issues. Furthermore Firefox can open/save the file without problems over either HTTP or HTTPS. I'm assuming this is some idiosyncrasy with IE when using CFCONTENT/CFHEADER over an SSL site. Thanks for your help. -Cliff Meyers ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - CFDynamics http://www.cfdynamics.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187295 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

I've found that SQL Server 2000 handles dates in this format: 'm/d/' It treats it like a string (not a numeric type) so you have to enclose it in single quotes within the query itself. Typically I create a ColdFusion date object using CreateDate(), then convert that to a string using DateFormat(mydate, "m/d/"). -Cliff ~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Silver Sponsor - RUWebby http://www.ruwebby.com Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:187068 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Re: Preventing users CFINSERTing duplicate records
CK, ALTER TABLE jobs ADD CONSTRAINT myuniqueindex1 UNIQUE (co_id, co_name); That should do it. It creates a unique index across those two columns so that no row can have identical values. The database will throw an error if you attempt to insert a non-unique row. Alternatively, you could declare the PRIMARY KEY across both columns since it implies unique values. -Cliff On Fri, December 10, 2004 2:35 pm, Chris Kavanagh said: > Hello list! > > Well, that's it really.

Re:CF on Linux
The install process on Linux is very painless especially on RedHat since the cfinstaller will automatically build your Apache connector for you. I'm not sure if the cfinstaller will do that on the other distros. I've been running CF on Linux for 3 years and the platform is rock solid and noticeably faster than on the Windows systems I've used. I just upgraded to CFMX 6.1 (making a big jump from 4.5) and things seem to generally be running rather well. However the lack of Verity support is a major disappointment and has actually spurred me begin to looking at migrating to Tomcat or JBoss instead of CF. The nice thing about open source app servers is that the generally work on any Linux distro. -Cliff >Hi all, > >I'm a long time CF on Windows user who's thinking of dabbling with >Linux as a possible future server platform. > >While my Cold Fusion skills are quite high, I'm a pretty basic Linux >user.

Re:How to deal with RH 7/8/9 EOL [was: CF on Linux]
We've been running RedHat (since 6.2) with ColdFusion (since 4.5) for about 3 years now. There are a few different paths I've been investigating lately for Linux: >From what I've read the first core release of Project Fedora was a disappointment and had quite a few bugs in it. Since Fedora isn't likely to be supported by any major applications (including CF) it's probably not a viable long term option anyways for anyone who wants apps that are actually supported. I've been looking into purchasing a license for RedHat Enterprise Linux ES but the 349 USD price tag coupled with annual costs for a subscription is somewhat daunting, at least when you're used to using a free OS. SUSE Standard Server 8 is another option but their price is 449 USD. RedHat's main partnerships look to be Dell and Oracle whereas SUSE has a strong IBM partnership and is now owned by Novell (who also owns Ximian). If you have a preference towards any of those companies' hardware or software it might be something to consider. Of course there are plenty of other Linux distros but very few of them have much enterprise support. I'm commited to Linux more than anything else. MM's commitment to Linux however seems to be wavering. Although the Verity support isn't maintained by MM that entire suite of tools in unusable on any modern Linux OS. I'd like to see MM consider offering the Lucene engine for Linux users in place of Verity. Ultimately I'll probably stick with RedHat and pay the fee or find a suitable Linux distro that works well with the rest of my open source stack (Apache, MySQL and PostgreSQL). As far as the app server is concerned it's likely that I'll be making a migration to Tomcat with 6-12 months and converting our existing code base (about 50% CF and 50% PHP) to a unified Java code base. The issues I've been having with Verity since upgrading to CFMX 6.1 have left a very bad taste in my mouth and a far less positive view of CF and MM that I previously held. -Cliff [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
Verity problems
Hello, I'm having some problems with Verity that I thought perhaps someone may be able to shed some light on. I'm running CFMX 6.1 on RedHat 7.2 (with the compat-libstdc++-6.2 RPM installed for Verity compatibility). I indexed about 20 text files using the CF Admin and that appeared to be successful (there were no errors in the sysinfo.log file inside the collection). However, when I run a search (type = simple) against the collection I am always getting all 20 records returned. No matter what I put in the cfsearch critera attribute - even if it's a total nonsense string - I get all 20 records back. Furthermore, the result set has an empty string under the score column for each row. Can anyone offer some assistance here? I posted on CF-Linux also but it doesn't seem like I'll be getting a response on this one. Thanks so much for your help.
