Re: cfimage error

2013-01-16 Thread Dan Baughman

many, many times.

I've tried several permutations of accounts and unsubscribe options
after being logged in.

The best guess is my email address is somehow double entered into the
database and its too complex for Michael D. to solve.

I've emailed him and the website contact us form several times.

When i started this endeavor the forgot password link didn't even
work, and i was excited when that was fixed, but alas, I continue to
receive emails even after selecting unsubscribe.

Truly, the manager of this list is a lesson in the bad CF programmers
you hear about who give us all a bad name.

 I think you're on the right track, although it ultimately still fails to
 register the CFC. For instance, if, in the Application.cfc, I use the
 absolute path (or relative path) to the directory in which the REST CFCs
 are located:

 this.restSettings.cfcLocation = C:\inetpub\wwwroot\API;
 this.restSettings.skipCFCWithError = true;

 I get this error when I try to register the REST Directory in the
 Administrator:

 Error registering REST service. Please ensure that you have entered a
 proper mapping and path.
 Application restApp could not be initialized.
 Reason: Missing dependency for method public java.lang.String
 api.Connector.connect(java.lang.String,java.lang.Object[]) throws
 coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFCInvocationException at parameter at index 1

 However, if I use a path that I know doesn't have any REST-enabled CFCs
 (C:\fnord), I get a very helpful (if a little verbose) error message with
 exactly what I expect to see:

 Error registering REST service. Please ensure that you have entered a
 proper mapping and path.
 Application restApp could not be initialized.
 Reason: The application does not contain any rest enabled CFCs.
 The application does not contain any rest enabled CFCs.

 What this says to me is that CF finds exactly what it's looking for
 traversing the directory I give it, but there's something deeper that's
 interfering with the proper registration.

 And, finally, I tried one other thing - I copied the /API directory and
 called it /siesta, and changed the references to the directory in its
 Application.cfc. I then tried registering the REST services through the
 Administrator as well as programmatically, but received the same Missing
 dependency... error above.

  Hi all -
 
  I've got some very strange errors in CF10, and I'm not sure what's going
  on. Basically, it's like this... I'm writing a REST API using CF10's
 native
  REST functionality. No significant problems at all during development
 over
  the last couple of weeks, but an hour or so ago, it stopped returning any
  data whatsoever.
 
  The paths resolve if I request them from a browser (no 404s or 500s or
  other strangeness), the underlying functions and data structures are
  working and available; one function returns some info from an
  application-scoped struct - dumping that struct in a CFM works fine.
  Various restarts (service, webserver, applicationStop()) don't fix
  anything. I'm running CF 10.0.7 (as of this morning!) on Win7/IIS6. I
 don't
  think the OS/Web server are contributing factors, though, because,
 looking
  at exception.log, I see this dump from when a REST request was made (full
  error stack follows, continued afterwards):

Re: cfimage error

2013-01-15 Thread Dan Baughman

cfimage is really quite buggy... it has file locking issues.
you have to fiddle with the tag and function version until something
works reliably in a high demand environment.  It is truthfully only
marginally better than the native java stuff.

Re: form-post to SQL-insert creates double-entry

2013-01-15 Thread Dan Baughman

the better approach is to go ahead and keep the cfparam, and then
during your logic to action something on the page validate it in some
slight way.

EG.

cfparam name='form.value' default=
cfif len(form.value)
TAKE SOME ACTION
/cfif

 Hello All,

 I appreciate everyone's help on my other posts and think I'm coming to
 understand CF a lot better than I did before I started posting here a few
 days ago, so kudos to you, friends!

 My latest issue w/ my burgeoning new website is the input.cfm page, where
 an end-user may (in theory) enter a donor's information into a webform,
 click submit, and the data will subsequently be inserted into the SQL
 Server (2005) table dbo.DONOR, which while it's under development, has only
 six fields: kcid (auto-incrementing PK/UID for the database) and the other
 five which you see in the code below and are probably pretty
 self-explanatory.  I have tried creating an empty structure called 'form'
 before applying the code and finally settled on a block of cfparam
 statements to set the vars to a default.  I can't see a way around this
 because NOT doing so causes the form to indeed show at the top of the
 webpage, but it is followed by a CF error page.  INCLUDING the cfparam
 tags or cfset var =  or form = structNew(); causes the error output to
 go away but results in TWO recordsets being sent to the DB, one blank
 (except for the PK which is set up to auto-increment in SQL) and one with
 the correct info, and taking the next PK number.  I also tried setting the
 fields to NOTNULL = TRUE in SQL but to no avail, apparently  translates
 into something besides null on the server-side.  Here is the code, I would
 greatly appreciate your thoughts on what I'm doing wrong and how to rectify
 it:

 html
 head
 titleInput form for new donor/title
 /head

 cfparam name=form.first default=
 cfparam name=form.last default=

Re: Coldfusion 9 certification

2012-03-29 Thread Dan Baughman

I guess everyone has their own experiences In mine, and for those I
know and have spoke with, certifications don't get you the job offer
directly, but they definitely help in two big ways towards getting the job.

1) getting through HR and/or the hiring manager onto the desk of the person
who makes the decision
2) getting into the interview with the same



 I think I've found that certifications tend to have more weight in
 organizations that do not have the ability to judge your skill level
 themselves. These are folks like HR departments, recruiters, and middle
 manager types who don't really understand how to measure your abilities
 themselves. I also tend to see it more frequently in larger organizations
 (since they are more likely to have those folks).

 At the end of the day, certifications usually won't hurt you except for the
 time and money that may be required to study for and take the test. They
 might help you a lot, a little or not at all.

 ...but the OP's stated reason for getting the certification wasn't for
 employment reasons, it was for self education.  So, for that, I think it's
 a fine goal.

Re: sartis

2012-03-02 Thread Dan Baughman

The easiest and least obtrusive way i can think of  would be to build the
pagination into the page, as if you wanted it to function like it was
paging without ajax.

Then, use a jquery load call for the link, here is the doc for jquery
load:  http://api.jquery.com/load/

The key javascript call looks like this:

$('#result').load('page.cfm?page=2 #result');

This basically says go get page.cfm and find the container with ID result
and load it into the div with ID result on this page.  Then result needs to
be the wrapper around the table / content you are paginating.

  Analytics for monitoring CF servers kick some serious ass. I've been a

  in the same class as the Fusion Reactor/Analytics Products.  This pair

Re: Solr Summary Text

2011-09-19 Thread Dan Baughman

You can change solr's configuration through editing its text file to include
the context when the entries in that collection are updated.

I can't recall off the top of my head how to do this, but I can you can dig
around on google for adding context to solr coldfusion 9 or something.

They say the reason they excluded that is because it makes the index much
smaller to omit the context and only include the title. I guess I see
their point but in my experience it would save me tons of time if they would
just enable it by default.

cf enterprise quad cpu box

2011-08-15 Thread Dan Baughman

With the one jrun.exe process running, I can never get coldfusion to really
utilize multiple processors.

Is there a way in enterprise mode that you can set it to spawn multiple
jrun.exe processes, one per processor to work collaboratively serving one
web site?

Re: cf enterprise quad cpu box

2011-08-15 Thread Dan Baughman

So what you are saying is that threads will use different cpu's
automatically?

Well in my case, I have quad quad cores, so its 16 cores. I do this on a
bunch of servers and it just doesn't seem like one core is utilized a lot
more than others by the jrun.exe.

While each request should use or re-use a separate available worker thread
it is my concern that this threads execute predominantly (or entirely) on
one CPU.

 That said you can break certain parts of code off into separate threads

 performant by prioritizing or simulprocessing code chunks, not to try to
 balance workload across multiple cores or processors.

Re: CSS Conditionals Question

I am aware of one technique that internet explorer employs in order to
achieve something like what you are looking for, but this doesn't help you
for other browsers.

You alsmost have to have some logic and then include different css files if
you really want something extravagant.

Check out this blog, rule #2:

   - *IE8 or below*: to write CSS rules specificially to IE8 or below, add a
   backslash and 9 (\9) at the end before the semicolon.
   - *IE7 or below*: add an asterisk (*) before the CSS property.
   - *IE6*: add an underscore (_) before the property.

SOT, JSON web services

2011-07-29 Thread Dan Baughman

Hi List,

I know there are tons of tools out there that will take a WSDL and spit out
soap packets that you can simply plug your actual variable values into, but
doesnt anyone know of anything like that for JSON?

I've got a handlful of schema XML's which are part of a WSDL for a JSON web
service and am loathing the idea of manually typing out JSON objects for
each complex type.

Suggestions appreciated,

Thanks,
Dan

Re: SOT, JSON web services

2011-07-29 Thread Dan Baughman

Well its kind of an odd scenario.

I've been given a schema and WSDL for a web service, but the schema and WSDL
are in XML, but the web service is expecting to receive request in JSON.

So, given a more typical web service, you'd get a WSDL and then a tool, like
Altove XMLspy (or an Eclipse plugin) could generate example soap packets for
each of the interactions the web service provides, albeit with place-holder
variables where your data would actually go.

In this scenario, I'll have to look at the WSDL on the left monitor and
manually type in JSON code into the editor on the right, versus having the
tool create example data packets.

Re: SOT, JSON web services

2011-07-29 Thread Dan Baughman

Thanks for the suggestions. I searched down a similar path - perhaps just
converting the XML schemas to JSON or something would avoid the typing.

But I heartily disagree with you about the WSDL being in XML and the service
itself dealing in JSON being common. I would expect the service to
be described using JSON Schema instead of a soap-style XML WSDL - that is
just odd ball.  With the JSON schema you could at least use something from
DOJO to easily create the example data packets given the service
description.

 Not odd at allWSDLs are in XML, but don't confuse WSDL format with

 It's like saying because CF is Java that it must output Javawhich of
 course is not true ;-)

 So any webservice will be in XML and it's inputs could be queries/XML
 strings/JSON strings/structures/strings/numbers/etc.

 Not sure if that helps you with your test packet issuebut hopefully
 it helps regardless ;-)

 Any chance serializeJSON() would help you make those test packets
 without typing it out the hard way?

Re: Automated File Deployment/Replication

I work in a similar environment and use three general techniques.

1) an ftp tag that replicates files that need to immediately replicate that
are uploaded through the admin, it basically figures out which server its
running from and copies to the other two synchronously using cfftp
2) install cygwin and run WGET in a mirror mode ftp configuration
3) bestsync isn't so bad, but I found for some reason it would just ignore
some files

SOT: SEO, schema, microdata

2011-06-07 Thread Dan Baughman

Hey list,

I'm looking for some concrete examples of where microdata or RDFa or similar
has directly boosted seo on a site.

I'm literally looking for a reference to a live page that uses one of the
aforementioned and then a link to how the appearance on a search engine has
been improved/altered.

This is because there has been some significant noise lately with
bing/yahoo/google converging on the new html5 data schema (schema.org) and
I'm looking for any justification to actually start using this other than I
think its cool.

Anyone had really good experiences with that yet?

Re: SOT: SEO, schema, microdata

It's so meta that its hard to find on the search engines themselves.

The correlation between results and microdata/seo schemas just isn't 1:1,
from what I experience.  In general having your location in the proper
schema does seem to really help your establishment attain proper placement
on gmaps though.

On Tue, Jun 7, 2011 at 9:29 AM, Mark Drew mark.d...@gmail.com wrote:


 One of the interesting things about SEO is that it's largely snake oil.

 If you look at how search engines now work, it's with personalised
 searching, so what you might get, will be very different from what I might
 get for the same search term.

 So when you say you will be looking for pages with microformats, Google
 (for
 example) will return (for you) more pages with microformats than if I did
 it.

 Just a thought.

Re: What's everybody using?

2011-04-13 Thread Dan Baughman

I like the flot's because they are more interactive the user can zoom on
regions, hover over points to see more details, etc.  The user can also turn
on and off various graphs in the same chart - so you can chart ten lines and
then the user can turn off the ones that dont matter to them, and it
automatically readjusted the scale.

The charts4j seem more static.

9.01 updater - the nightmare relived

2011-03-25 Thread Dan Baughman

Hi List,

I recall back when I installed 9.01 - its basically like playing russian
roullette with your server with the possible outcome being that you have to
reinstall your entire ColdFusion setup.

Its this error (and some of its variants) that start occuring on every CFM
file:
The tag handler application does not have a setter for the attribute
datasource specified in the Tag Library Descriptor.

Does anyone have the final solution/fix for this?  Why  hasn't adobe fixed
this god awful patch?

I have a live site down any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks
Dan

Why doesn't the updater do that then? I've never heard of that before.

I guess I must be living under a rock because I've upgraded many, many
servers starting from coldfusion 6 up through 9.01 and NEVER had to clear
any class-cache - nor I have heard this mentioned by anyone as a solution
for this problem.

If this patch introduces a new requirement of clearing the class cache, it
should be mentioned in the docs or the patch should do it automatically.

Just saying thats a piss-poor patch.

 I'm pretty sure the release notes for patches often recommend this.
 But in any case, this is a common issue with patches. I've run into

 In many (most?) cases, I'd recommend not storing compiled classes to

Re: Solr Summary Text

2011-03-16 Thread Dan Baughman

They work you just have to adjust ur settings.  You have to edit the xml
files that configure solr so that they retain the text and thus can present
the context passage.

Follow these instructions and then rebuild your index and you'll have
context passages:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSe9cbe5cf462523a0-5bf1c839123792503fa-8000.html

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Developing/WSe9cbe5cf462523a0-5bf1c839123792503fa-8000.htmlI,
for one, found that solr was immensely more powerful and graceful than
verity once I got it grokked.  Solr has a wiki that breaks down their query
syntax, as well, so check it out. You can do almost anything.

To really get soem of the good stuff for ecommerce and heavy category
searching ( facet counts, facet queries, etc) you have to directly interact
with the solr web service rather than going through cfsearch, but its
generally worth it.  There are some cfc's out there that do it, check ria
forge.

On Wed, Mar 16, 2011 at 2:42 PM, Dean Lawrence dean...@gmail.com wrote:


 Thanks Gabriel,

 Unfortunately, the contextPassages does not seem to work with Solr.
 When using it against a verity collection, but the summary and context
 columns are populated with the same text which is properly being
 controlled by the contextPassages setting. However, when I try the
 exact same settings against a Solr collection, the summary column
 still has very limited information in it and the context column is
 empty.

 You are correct that I would prefer to keep it in CF, as this would
 allow me to perform per-collection tuning. However, if there is a
 config file somewhere that affect all Solr collections, then I am fine
 making the change there as well.

Re: CFSearch and SOLR

2011-01-17 Thread Dan Baughman

What I ended up doing is using CFINDEX/CFCOLLECTION to create and index the
collection but then using a manually cfhttp request to the localhost solr
index to get the facet counts.

In my scenario the 4 custom fields wasn't a limitation as much as not
getting the facet counts was.  This thing is easily 5% of the run time that
its Verity counterpart was - its amazing.

Plus you can optimize/search/index all at the same time and your SOLR
collection doesn't get corrupted like verity!

For anyone else interested, it seems there have been a few works like
Dominic's here where someone got some of the way into it, the example code
is pretty simple though once you get the solr query syntax down.

Here is a coldfusion object for interacting with solr
http://solcoldfusion.riaforge.org/

I had to tweak it to fit my collection, and local port ( eg.
http://localhost:8983/solr/collectionamne/action )

This page was also invaluable, but its a shame they don't give examples of
the dataset, its not until you run one of these quries and see the output
that you realize how powerful it is:

 What Solr offers is quite a departure from the cfcollection, cfindex and

CFWDDX Serialization and Deserialization

2010-12-06 Thread Dan Baughman

It has recently (and very painfully) come to my attention that cfwddx
serialize doesn't encapsulate strings in CDATA markers.

This removes your ability to have HTML/XML markup in a string that is part
of a struct you are trying to serialize/deserialize with out paying special
attention to each string at serialization and deserialization time.

Is there something I'm missing?  This would seem to be an incredibly useful
feature that would save tons of work and make the serialization feature tons
more useful.

Re: Really odd problem - cpu utilization at idle

2010-09-22 Thread Dan Baughman

Ok I got this taken care of, it was the registry values!

I wasn't using Client variables, but I had client management set to yes in
the application.cfm

I disabled that, and cleared that reg key that stores the client variables
and like magic the server is 100%

Clientmanagement=yes is basically a time bomb just waiting to go off if you
are using the registry for client variables.

Why in the world would Adobe not use something like SQLite or Derby for
this, by default?

Thanks all for the help.

Video analysis

2010-09-22 Thread Dan Baughman

Hi List,

I'm kicking around allowing users to upload videos directly to my site
rather than using a 3rd party like youtube or vimeo.

Does anyone have any experience with a coldFusion friendly video analysis
tool?

I'm hoping for something I can run on the uploaded file to verify the
fileformat, video codec, etc.

Regards,
Dan

My hesitation on cookie is adding the un-necessary bandwidth to every

I think the best move is a hybrid.

1) disable client vars using clientmanagement=no in your cfapplication
2) set it to database or cookies.

 You can remove the Registry manually from the XML config file and restart

 registry as the storage mechanism, so this could cause you other issues.

Really odd problem - cpu utilization at idle

2010-09-15 Thread Dan Baughman

Hi list,

I have an issue where after sitting idle for a while JRUN spikes to 100% of
it's cpu usage and just sits there.  I ran it and did some stack traces and
it wasn't even serving any web pages. Process monitor yielded that
Jrun.exe's only IO activity was rescanning some XML files in the ColdFusion
install folder.  We pulled the server from production and this issue recurs
if its just sitting there by itself.

Any suggestions on how to figure out what JRUN is doing ??  I've never had
this problem before.


Thanks
Dan

 values every time, and the examples I've seen suggest that you should only
 get the one that was pressed.

 Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or what I need to do to get a

 input name=Choose value=Full type=submit class=EditButton /

Solr versus Verity

2010-04-26 Thread Dan Baughman

Hi List,

Anyone used Solr much?

Does it fix any of the problems verity had?

Has anyone used it with really large collections with categories?

Does Solr corrupt itself really easily like Verity does?

My biggest beef with Verity is the random collection corruption,
specifically the categories seem to basically scramble themselves every so
often despite my liberal use of locking.

The inputs appreciated,

Dan

Re: cfoutput query within cfoutput query

2010-03-19 Thread Dan Baughman

Hi Brandon,

1) Use a cfloop in place of a cfoutput tag for the inner loop.
2) in situations like these I recommend also scoping your variables, eg. the
pets in the inner loop would be #pets.pet#
3) in general your approach should be revisited, mainly because it will
create and execute a new query for each row returned by query person,
consider performing a join operation and reducing your approach to have only
one query.

Hope that helps,
Dan

Re: Throttling CFMail

2009-08-25 Thread Dan Baughman

It's much more than just sending that many at once. Most recipient email
servers will kick you out for sending too many, too fast, as well.
ie. yahoo will ban you for 48 hours if you try to delivery too many emails
in a short period of time. To delivery effectively you also need
domain-specific throttling.

 You may have better luck just paying for SMTP services from a company
 who doesn't mind you sending that many emails at once.  You might even
 open that conversation with your ISP and ask them if they would be
 willing to allow you to pay a little extra for the privilege of using
 their outbound SMTP a little more.  Some ISPs have a business account
 or some other type of email accoutnt hat would allow you to do this.

 First thing to try:
 Use a browser that will actually show you the error message so we can
 actually help you figure out what the problem is.  Nothing against IE
 here,
 but when the server returns an error code IE just throws up it's garbage
 error page instead of showing you the message the server returned.
 
 Next you may consider changing coldfusion to stand alone mode, where it
 listens on port 8500 without having to interface with IIS.
 
 Let me know what the error is and I'll let you know what I think is up.

Re: Excel File Parser for ColdFusion

2009-08-07 Thread Dan Baughman

I have a function that will do just that, its only like 22 lines of code.

You have to be careful because if you don't close the resource and the
connection you have to restart your coldfusion services... so you may want
to throw in a try/catch that does that.

With this code you don't have to install any additional software or
anything... its all built-in coldfusion.  I would copy/paste the code but it
would likely mangle some characters so just copy/paste from the blog site.

However, it doesn't fit the order for this site. I need something ADA

Re: Another excel file reading question

2009-06-18 Thread Dan Baughman

Excellent observation. I've altered the code to close the connection as well
as the resultset and will respond back to confirm that change does allow
another dynamic odbc connection to be opened without restarting coldfusion.



 I do not use dynamic odbc excel connections much.  But one thing that jumps
 out at me is you are closing the resultset, but not the connection object.
  Always close both, and use error handling to make sure the objects are
 properly closed in the event of an error.

 But you might also consider using a fixed datasource instead. IIRC, you can
 read excel files dynamically using a single MS Access or Excel/odbc
 datasource.

Re: Coldfusion Date format question

2009-05-11 Thread Dan Baughman

I believe the issue may be with your cfqueryparam tag.

You are using cf_sql_date, which to me implies only a date, not a time.
According to livedocs the CF_SQL_TIMESTAMP cfqueryparam is what maps to the
Microsoft SQL datetime type.

 Hello All,

 I have an issue inserting date and time together into a database table from

 Right now, I am using cfquery to get records from a particular table, in
 which one of the field is date, and its value in the database is something
 like
 2/14/2007 9:10:12 AM. I am performing insert operation into another table
 which has to insert this date field into the column of new table. I am doing
 currently as follow:

 cfquery name=getDate datasource= maxrows=1
   select date_field from table
 /cfquery

 cfif getDate.recordcount is not 0
  cfquery name=insertDate datasource=
insert into table2 (date_field1) values (cfqueryparam
 cfsqltype=cf_sql_date value=#getDate.date_field#)
  /cfquery
 /cfif

 The problem with this is only the date is getting inserted but not the
 time. How to format this.

 It would be great if somebody can reply, I am not sure if my messages are
 getting posted, as I posted couple of issues I had some time back, but never
 got any reply back.

 Thanks.

SQL Server Locks

2009-04-15 Thread Dan Baughman

Hi All,

SQL Server locks seem to cause problems that result in processes remaining
blocked until something intervenes in two cases: circular dependencies
between processes and application or when a query is cancelled but the lock
isn't released.

My question pertains to the latter. Has anyone really looked at situations
that ColdFusion, through the default JDBC driver to SQL Server 2000 will
obtain a table or row level lock and then not release it?  Or is this
possiblya function of some fault SQL.  Or is there some user behaviour that
causes the latter to occur?

Regards,

Dan Baughman

Re: AJAX Solution to Read database and load new Image

2009-03-29 Thread Dan Baughman

There are just a ton of ways to do exactly this, its a bit of general
question.
It sounds like maybe you are looking for some example code?  Are you using
any Javascript frameworks?

The general flow to the update is going to be this:

   1. A function is called via a page onload or something.
   2. This function creates an XMLHTTP request and sets the callback
   function that will get passed the data returned from the http request.
   3. The call back function receives this data, and does the javascript to
   set the image attributes appropriately, it then does a setTimeout back to
   the original function. (goto step 1)


Creating the functionality involves the server side programming. When I was
first learning Javascript and using the XMLHTTP request i was using a
serverside script that returned raw html or delimited strings that was
parsed as appropriate by the callback function. In this case the server side
script could simply return the relative path to the image which the callback
function could then document.getElementById('imageid').src = returnedText.

If you have time and are actually trying to learn JS, a better approach
would be to have the server side script generate a JSON object which would
make it easier to add more than one value to the data it returned to the
clientside JS, say the next step in improving this would be to return a
string that would serve as a caption below the image. JSON is a cake to
parse client side and is lighter weight that XML.

I have a ghetto xmlhttprequest object i use but I'd recommend you go get
jQuery and read 3 or 4 pages of documentation on their ajax object. It would
allow you very simply return the full img tag from the server side script,
and then periodically populate some arbitray div with the results.

 I am starting out with AJAX and would like to create a simple app to use on

 I have a database table setup (images) with image information in it of
 fields named: imageid, imagename, imageactive, and I want to have a
 client go to a url that displays the image using the img src= tag of the
 image in the database that is marked as imageactive. Then using AJAX to
 continuously check that database table from the clients page and when a new
 image it tagged as imageactive then I want the clients page to refresh,
 load and display the new image that is tagged in the database as
 imageactive without them having to click on anything.  The client just
 sits there and watching the screen while I am talking to them over the
 phone.

 As the presenter on the phone talking to them I am controling from my
 computer what image in the database table that is being tagged as
 imageactive, toggling that image and the clients machine reads that
 database, loads the new image and refreshes the screen if it was different
 from the one that is currently displayed on their screen.

 Is there a simple AJAX solution that can accomplish this for me?

 Please let me know if I am unclear as to what I am trying to accomplish.

 V/R,
 Tom

Re: CF8 Enterprise worth the cost? Any experience with it in a virtual environment?

2009-03-26 Thread Dan Baughman

Durn hand-helds! I did mean to say better.  I know that the JVM heap size
only goes to 1.5 gigs, and you may end up fighting with other apps that
don't run well on the 32 bit emulation a 64 bit version of windows server
offers, but I have a couple of 64bit servers running 2k3 r2 and I don't even
have to restart coldfusion at all on them.

2009-03-26 Thread Dan Baughman

and 99% of sites don't need any of that.  some of those are just nice to
have, and certainly don't merit spending five thousand.  Even larger sites,
that have enough traffic to need two servers don't need that stuff.  If you
are serious about email delivery you usually don't use cfmail, am i right?
 there are too many controls left out in cfmail that make it a bad choice
for mass marketing campaigns to hundreds of thousands or millions of users.
 But... I digress..
Anyways, all I meant to say (which was in response to the query here),
performance is NOT going to improve simply because you have purchased
enterprise.  Your much better off to take that five thousand bucks and beef
up your hardware if you are trying to improve performance.  UNLESS you are
going to start clustering servers. 3 clustered servers do typically
outperform one server.

Re: Delivery Report

2009-03-25 Thread Dan Baughman

have all the check boxes be named the same thing.

input type=checkbox name=items value=1
input type=checkbox name=items value=2
input type=checkbox name=items value=3

if all three boxes are check you will get a comma separated list  in the
form variable.

e.g. with all 3 checked you'd get form.items = '1,2,3' then you just alter
your query with an in statement

...
where item_id in (cfloop from=1 to =#listlen(items)#
index=icfqueryparam value=#listgetat(items, i)#

  ca_order_summary  holds the order summary information (one record)

 cfsqltype=cf_sql_integer value=#form.webID#/cfif
  ORDER BY ca_ordersum_id DESC
  /cfquery
  (please note .* used for example)
 
  I would like to produce a dynamic form which displays the orders one by
 one and also list the order items individually and have a check box next to
 the order items,
  so the user can decide which items from the order are included in a
 delivery report.
 
 
  Order #1: Contains 5 items P1,P2,P3,P4,P5 The user would only like P3 to
 be included within the report.
 
  I have handled dynamic forms before and have used the following format
 for my check boxes, and order summary id
 
  input type=hidden name=ca_ordersum_id#currentrow#
 value=#ca_ordersum_id#
  input type=hidden name=resCount
 value=cfoutput#get_orders.recordCount#/cfoutput
   input name=output#currentrow# type=checkbox class=boxes
 id=output#currentrow# value=yes  /
 
 
  And use this type of code to create a list of id's to pass to a query,
 however this obviously just gets the ordersum id which will still include
 items I do not want. I can't be very far from what I need, just need a
 little help tweaking it.
 
  Would I be better to build a 2d array i.e. order ID, product id if so
 could someone point me in the right direction with creating the array and
 accessing the array in the subsequent query to be produced.
 
  cfset myList = 
  cfloop index=i
  from=1
  to=#val(form.resCount)#
 
  cfif StructKeyExists(Form,'ca_ordersum_id#i#')
 cfset variables.ca_ordersum_id = form['ca_ordersum_id#i#']/
  cfif StructKeyExists(Form,'output#i#')
 cfset Variables.output = form['output#i#']/
 
cfset myList = listappend(mylist, variables.ca_ordersum_id)
 
 
  /cfif!---//end of variables output---
 
  /cfif!---//end of variables ca_ordersum_id---
 
  I hope this explains what I am trying to do, it does in my head anyway:-)

Re: Delivery Report

2009-03-25 Thread Dan Baughman

The number in the item checkbox would the primary key of the item in the
items table, if you always have this of items then that is the simplest
solution, your both over complicating, not the arbitrary order they appear
on the page.

You would join to the items table based on the order number, but your where
cause would select based on the item's primary keys, not the order numbers.
thus the order number would be contained in the result query as it is now.

Your trying to have coldfusion do too much work that SQL could more simply
do.  Also ANSI style outter joins are deprecated and would be better be
avoided.

I stand by my original suggestion.

  I have resolved my issue in the following way,
 
  I removed the group attribute from my initial form output which returned
 one row for each order item I added an orderitem_id#currentrow# hidden
 field, created two lists, one for orderid and one for the orderitems id, and
 used the IN operator on my query.
 
  Which now returns the desired results!
 
  I have one slight problem with the initial display, its a little messy.
 Lets say the customer has ordered three items, now that I have removed the
 grouping(so I can get at individual items) the customer name is returned 3
 times as well, can I use some conditions to stop this, or be able to group
 color the rows for the particular customer.

Verity collections/vspider in a shared environment

2009-03-11 Thread Dan Baughman

So to use a verity search that searches a site through coldfusion I have
always periodically updated the collection use a

vspider -cmdfile comands file

command line script that runs against localhost.

In a shared environment I can get them to run the script periodically but
the useless vspider is licensed to only hit localhost.. which obviously wont
work on a shared server.

Anyone have any good approaches for that?
