CFHTTP charset issue
We're using CFHTTP to query a java service. The system basically takes a piece of text and posts it via CFHTTP to a custom service written in Java. The problem is occuring because CF doesn't seem to be setting the character encoding correctly. Consequently special characters like smart quotes are becoming garbled. My cfhttp code is very simple: cfhttp method=post url= http://localhost/?userid=#session.user.id#type=ExtractClean; port=#application.SemxPort# charset=utf-8 cfhttpparam type=body value=#params.cleantext# cfhttpparam type=header name=content-type value=text/html /cfhttp On the java side, our dev is using getCharacterEncoding() to return the character encoding of the request, but it's coming back with null which according to the docs means: the request does not specify a character encoding But I'm specifically setting the charset as utf-8 :( What am I missing here? Has anyone seen similar behaviour with CFHTTP and if so how did you resolve it? Or it's possible that I'm doing something wrong with my CFHTTP tag but the code is so simple it seems unlikely. If anyone has any ideas I would be most grateful for your insight :) ~| 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:358593 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Frustrated and on a deadline please assist
Maybe a dumb question but are you sure your autoSuggest is handling the //
CF puts at the start of a JSON string correctly? I've encountered this
problem when using the jQuery autoSuggest plugin.

Your output looks like its being returned as javascript escaped JSON.
For example, the following using returntype=json, yields the correct
raw JSON array:
URL: http://localhost/tests/jsonTest.
cfc?method=giveMeJsonreturnformat=json
Component:
component displayname=JSONTest output=false{
remote array function giveMeJson(){
var a = arrayNew(1);
arrayAppend(a,Miami Area Geriatric Education Center);
arrayAppend(a,Miami Children's Hospital);
arrayAppend(a,Miami Research Associates);
arrayAppend(a,Miami University (Oxford, Ohio));
arrayAppend(a,Miami Valley Hospital);
arrayAppend(a,Miami, FL-546);
arrayAppend(a,University of MiamiJackson Health System);
return a;
}
}
Result (which is exactly what should be returned by the request):
[Miami Area Geriatric Education Center,Miami Children's Hospital,
Miami Research Associates,Miami University (Oxford, Ohio),Miami
Valley Hospital,Miami, FL-546,University of MiamiJackson Health
System]
Is the string your provided the response from Firebug, an echo of the
var in javascript or what you see as the browser source when you
navigate directly to it? If so, are you using JQuerys native .
getJSON() method? That should give you an immediately workable JS
array.

Ok I read about this on one of my many 1,000 google searches for this
subject and someone mentioned using returnformat=plain. I tried that and
I
get the data back in the correct format:

BUT I still don't get the autosuggest drop down on the form.

Re: Issue with CFFeed
Small update to this thread, for the benefit of anyone in the future who might have issues with it and finds this in a google search. My users noticed this morning that £ symbols were being converted to � I'm not entirely sure what caused it but guessed correctly that it was something to do with the encoding, probably on my Windows 2008 server and/or IIS 7. The solution was to update the code I used to read and write the feeds thusly: cfhttp url=#getFeeds.feedurl# charset=utf-8 cfset xml = cfhttp.fileContent cfset xml = rereplace(xml, !-- .*? --, ) cfset fileWrite(ram://feed#feedID#.xml, xml, utf-8) with the utf-8 hardcoded in the cfhttp and fileWrite() code I'm now seeing my £ symbols again.

Issue with CFFeed
We recently upgraded to CF10 and a small app we use for importing RSS feeds seems to be rejecting certain feeds that worked perfectly fine in CF8. I've put details of the feeds and errors below.

Re: Weird directoryList problem after migration from CF8 to CF10
Hi Ray, Just tried it: cfset thisDir = directoryList(directory,false,query) Now I get an error: Complex object types cannot be converted to simple values. The expression has requested a variable or an intermediate expression result as a simple value. However, the result cannot be converted to a simple value. Simple values are strings, numbers, boolean values, and date/time values. Queries, arrays, and COM objects are examples of complex values. The most likely cause of the error is that you tried to use a complex value as a simple one. For example, you tried to use a query variable in a cfif tag.

Re: Weird directoryList problem after migration from CF8 to CF10
That would explain it Steve, thanks :) Turns out that when the client asked for all the functionality they didn't need it. Now all they want is to upload, view and delete so I can build a pretty simple page in CF for that. Problem solved.

Issue instantiating java on CF10
Dear Java Gurus, I'm using some java to do text extraction, it was built on CF8 running on linux but we recently moved to a new CF10 server running on windows. The code doesn't work and I can't work out why. It's not using any custom jar files and I was able to port the same code from one CF8 linux server to another without a problem. Move it to CF10 windows (64bit) and I start getting instantiation errors. I realise it's a whole different operating system and 2 versions of CF so maybe my hope that it would just work was misguided. Just wondering if anyone with cf/java expertise had any ideas. My code looks like this: this.tweeturl = http://thefinanser.co.uk/fsclub/2013/04/why-all-banks-will-change-core-systems.html?utm_source=twitterfeedutm_medium=twitter ; myExtractor = CreateObject( java, application.TextExtractor).init(); myExtractor.extract( this.tweeturl ); params.description = myExtractor.getExtractedText(); The error: Object Instantiation Exception. Class not found: application.TextExtractor Simple case of a class not found I hear you say! Except I never installed any classes for it. I just wrote the code on CF8 and it worked. If anyone has any ideas I'd be most grateful. -= Ed ~| 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:355600 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
cffeed parsing error in CF10 but it works perfectly in CF8
Does anyone know if the cffeed rss parser has changed in CF10? I have a script that downloads some news headlines via Yahoo's RSS search feature. On my CF8 server I can parse the feed using cffeed and it all works perfectly. I ported the script over to the new CF10 server and I get a parser error. The feed URL is: http://news.search.yahoo.com/rss?ei=UTF-8p=Denis Learyfr=news-us-ss The error I'm seeing on CF10 is: Unable to parse the feed error: Illegal character in query at index 52: http://news.search.yahoo.com/rss?ei=UTF-8p=Denis Learyfr=news-us-ss On CF8 I get the same feed items as I see in my browser when loading the page manually.

Re: Weird issue with SOLR and cfindex - it won't index more than 10k rows

Need help with inserting non-standard characters into SQL from CF
First off, happy new year all!
I'm sure the answer to this is really simple but I've been banging my head
against a wall for a few hours so thought I'd ask my friendly neighbourhood
gurus.
I have a database table that needs to store currency symbols both as HTML
chars (%pound;), text code (ie. GBP) and the symbol (£)
The database table has the fields as UNICODE (nvarchar) and when I manually
paste the rows in via windows and SMSS I can put in currency symbols and
every other strange character I could find including japanese chars and
other stuff. They are all stored by SQL just fine and I can return the data
in a cfquery without any issues.
However when I try and run an insert query via CF, for example:
insert into currencies
(title,code,symbol,htmlsymbol)
values
('Pounds','GBP','£','pound;')
The £ gets converted to ??
When I insert it as N'£' I still get question marks but these have black
diamond shaped boxes around them.
I thought it was the database collation or something but as I said I can
type these characters into the table in my SMSS console and they are saved
without a problem.
We're running a linux CF server and windows database server, could that be
the problem? If so is there anyway I can get it working? I'm really
struggling to understand this problem so if anyone has encountered it
before and knows a solution or can point me in the right direction for some
reference material then I would be most grateful.
Thanks in advance ;

Re: Need help with inserting non-standard characters into SQL from CF
Thanks Russ, I was using the JTDS driver which doesn't have that setting so
I changed it to the MS SQL driver and ticked the relevant box. It's still
not working though. Given that I deleted and recreated the DSN should I
restart the server?

Re: Need help with inserting non-standard characters into SQL from CF
Thanks Paul, the data isn't coming from a form it's being manually entered in the CFM and will only be run once hence the lack of cfqueryparams, I suspect that the problem is something to do with the fonts which was why I was thinking that the linux CF and windows DB might be the problem.

Is there a better way to do this import
I'm in the process of rebuilding one of our sites and part of that means
rationalising data and correcting mistakes that were made in the original
build. I've got a chunk of data that needs to be extracted and transformed,
then inserted into a new table in a new database. I'm currently using CF to
do the heavy lifting and so my first question is whether CF is best for
this or if I should try to do this with SQL queries. If the answer is 2 can
anyone point me in the right direction as to how I would go about doing
this in native SQL? Or is there a more efficient way to do this in CF?
Here's what the code currently looks like. Bear in mind that the citem
table contains over 90k rows so we're talking about a lot of data here.
!--- gets the old data the modX fields need merging into a new dbase
schema ---
cfquery datasource=#oldDSN# name=gtd
select id, mod, mod2, mod3, mod4
from citem
where active = 1
/cfquery
!--- Start looping through items ---
cfoutput query=gtd
!--- Get the new item ID from the new database ---
cfquery datasource=#newDSN# name=getNewItemID
select id from items where oldid = '#gtd.id#'
/cfquery
!-- Merge the mod fields into a list ---
cfset topicList = ''
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod#')
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod2#')
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod3#')
cfset topicList = listappend(#topicList#,'#gtd.mod4#')
!--- Loop through the list ---
cfloop list=#topicList# index=t
!--- Assuming there's a value in the field do the insert into the new
database ---
cfif trim(t) NEQ '' and trim(t) NEQ '0'
!-- Get the value for the new topicid field ---
cfquery datasource=#newDSN# name=getNewTopicID
select id from topics where oldid = '#t#'
/cfquery
!--- Insert the data into the new topiclinks table that will link topic
IDs and item IDs ---
cfquery datasource=#newDSN#
insert into topiclinks
(topicid,itemid)
values
('#getNewTopicID.id#','#getNewItemID.id#')
/cfquery
!--- Increment a counter so I know how many rows were created ---
cfset numTopics = numTopics + 1
/cfif
/cfloop
/cfoutput

Re: Is there a better way to do this import
Thanks for the tip Cameron, I will definitely research SELECT INTO as suggested, all I was hoping for was a pointer like that. I have a lot of tables to transfer but not all require any massaging of the data so I might be able to use CF for some and SQL for the others.

Making all the data do a round trip to CF and then back to the Database is always going to be slightly slower. Doing this 90K times in a row may magnify this effect. If it's slow in CF, then yes, write it in SQL. Only you can answer this question. If it's a one time migration though, who cares if it's slow as long as it happens. Explaining how to write the SQL to do this is beyond the scope of a simple email, but I would start by taking a look into the syntax for SELECT INTO, which will allow you to select data from one table directly into another. If you need to massage the data first, then it will get more complicated. -Cameron -- Cameron Childress -- p: 678.637.5072 im: cameroncf facebook http://www.facebook.com/cameroncf | twitterhttp://twitter.com/cameronc | google+ https://profiles.google.com/u/0/117829379451708140985 ~| 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:353441 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Localisation - file or database?
We're about to embark on a project for which locallisation is a requirement and it's the first time I've done this. I understand the basic concepts about having data containing the words and phrases needed on a website stored with versions for each language but I'm trying to figure something out: what's the best way to store the data? I see a lot of sites using flat JSON/XML/Whatever files with the different translations but is this something that would work well coming from a database? Is it more efficient to use a flat file or simply have a database store the words and phrases in columns with a new row for each language? One advantage I can see with a database option is that it makes adding new languages a little easier for people with no access to the file system on the server. It could also be managed with web forms which seems easier than having a massive flat file with loads of XML or JSON data structures. The purpose of this question is to see how you all do it and whether there are any pit-falls I should watch out for?

Re: Localisation - file or database?
Thanks guys, Russ especially for taking the time to put all that together, most appreciated :) I hadn't thought of the QofQ idea, that is a great suggestion. I think I will go with that as I like the idea of having everything stored in the database :) Thanks again On 2 October 2012 10:58, Russ Michaels r...@michaels.me.uk wrote: If you are talking about the content, then yes this is normally stored in the database and is handled by a CMS system. You would then have a separate version of the content for each language, and load the appropriate version depending on which language the logged in user has chosen. If you are are referring to the language of the site, menus, interface etc, then this really comes down more to preference, some folks use XML/JSON, some store in a database. Personally I would store it in the database, because form there you can easily generate both XML and JSON anyway plus you have ability to easily save revisions whenever something is edited and roll back if required. The reason a lot of apps use a flat file is because it allows the community to then produce language files for the project. What you can then do is create a TERM in English and store the various other language equivalents. e.g. Table: TermRefs TermRefID (primary key): Reference (varchar) Table TERMS TermID (primary key): TermRefID (foreign key): Term (varchar): LanguageID (foreign key) Table: Languages LanguageId (primary key) Language (varchar) DisplayText (varchar) sample data == TERMREFS 1 ContactMenuText 2 ProductsMenuText 3 SupportMenuText LANGUAGES 1 English 2 French 3 German TERMS 1 1 Contact Us 1 2 1 contactez-nous 2 3 1 kontaktieren Sie uns 3 You would only need to query this lot once and then cache it and use QofQ of get your references, so no load on database. The TermRefs.reference is a simple understandable reference that you would use to contain the text and output it on to the site. e.g. a href=contactus.cfm#getterm(ContactMenuText)#/a You would use the LANGUAGES table on your site in a dropdown list or whatever to give the user the language selector. Most people tend to put this in English, which must be annoying for the non English visitors, thus the DisplayText field, so you can actually display the Language names in that language.

Right now I'm keeping things simple but you're right that it's not just the globs of text that need translating, I'd already thought of currency formats etc but the calendar issue you raised is one I hadn't considered, and the L2R and R2L issue is also something I need to work out. Fun times! Thanks again for everyone who responded, you've all given me lots to think about.

Trying to solve a verity problem
Anyone seen this error when attempting to do verity searches? The collection you specified does not exists or is not registered with the ColdFusion Search Service. The collection is definitely there, 100% sure. It's in CF Admin but I can't optimise the index as it bombs out with the same error. I've tried creating the index using CF admin and then updating the index from my code. It allows me to build the index no problem but when I try to search it bombs out. If anyone has any suggestions I would be most grateful because I've been researching this for 2 days and am getting nowhere :( Help me Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope :) ~| 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:351801 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
RE: Trying to solve a verity problem
-Original Message- Your sad devotion to that ancient Jedi religion has not helped you conjure up the missing index, or given you enough clairvoyance to find the Verity problem. ROFLMAO, thanks for that, made me smile :) OK, with that out of the way - I've run into similar problems with Verity when specific documents were indexed. To work through those problems, I had to index documents one-by-one to identify the problem document. This is one reason why I don't use Verity any more. I'm not indexing documents, it's a query based index and when I run the part of the script with the cfindex tag it works without any problem: cfindex action=UPDATE collection=testCollection key=id type=CUSTOM title=title query=get body=title,descr custom1=descr language=English We recently moved the site to a new server at a new hosting company but they've already reinstalled Verity once and it's still not working right.

When watching `top` on the server I can see that the coldfusion process starts allocating a lot of memory up to almost 60%.

cfquery name=q datasource=#request.ds#
select product_id as value, product_title as label
from products
where product_title like cfqueryparam value=%#url.term#% /
/cfquery
!--- where we'll hold the data to convert to JSON ---
cfset data = [] /
cfoutput query=q
!--- create a new structure on each iteration, forcing lowercase
keys ---
cfset obj = {
label = label,
value = value
} /
!--- push this match onto the array ---
cfset arrayappend(data, obj) /
/cfoutput
!--- serialize the new structure ---
cfoutput#serializeJSON(data)#/cfoutput

Hi
I'm trying to populate a google map from a cfquery.
I serializeJSON the query then try and use that json object to populate
the
map.
I'm using code from Gabriel Svennerberg's Google Maps books (see code
below), but my json object from the query looks very different (in format)
from the example json object that Svennerberg shows.
His is in this format:
var json = [
{
title: Stockholm,
lat: 59.3,
lng: 18.1,
description: Stockholm is the capital and the largest city of
Sweden and
constitutes the most populated urban area in Scandinavia with a population
of 2.1 million in the metropolitan area (2010)
},
{
title: Oslo,
lat: 59.9,
lng: 10.8,
description: Oslo is a municipality, and the capital and most
populous
city of Norway with a metropolitan population of 1,442,318 (as of 2010).
}
]
and mine is like this:
{COLUMNS:[BUSINESS_NAME,LATITUDE,LONGITUDE],DATA:[[sdfd
sf Books,-36.890408,121.154751],[dsdsdsd Booksellers,-
14.921735,18.602189],[fff ints,-17.8451823,195.0541819]]}
Is there a way I can convert my query to a json object with the same
format
as Svennerberg's?

RE: Having a problem with cfpop - UTF-7
Thanks for your help Paul, I tested your script and utf-7 doesn't appear in
the list so I'm assuming that the new charset isn't being picked up. It's
strange though because there is another file in the same folder called
charsets.jar which is native to CF so the folder must be correct. I've
restarted the server twice already with no luck. I tried but failed to
locate the other folder you mentioned so I'm a bit stuck on this one. I
guess I will have to figure out a manual way to remove the offending
messages.
Does anyone know if this utf-7 thing is still an issue in CF10? If it is
then imo CFPOP should come with a big warning in the Adobe docs:

Having a problem with cfpop - UTF-7
This is kind of a re-post as I'm seeing other cf-talk messages in the archive relating to this issue but I'm a bit stuck so thought I'd ask anyway. I've built a bounce manager using the standard catch-all email domain method and it works great. Except that one of the mail servers returning a message has done so in UTF-7 format which is, of course, generating a CF error when I run CFPOP against the bounce mail account. Having googled the problem and seen 2 solutions: 1. jcharset http://cfg11n.blogspot.co.uk/2005/06/utf-7.html 2. cfx_pop3 http://store.newmediadevelopment.net/cfx_tag.cfm?ProductID=3 I've tried both and neither has worked. I'm running CF 8.01 on linux which is why I think the cfx_pop3 tag failed, that's a DLL which is windows specific afaik. When I try to run the CFX_pop tag the server is unable to load the library. The jcharset file is stored in /cfroot/runtime/jre/lib and I checked the permissions but upon restarting the server it doesn't seem to make any difference at all and the bounce manager script still bombs out. I was just wondering if anyone has come up with any other workarounds for this problem?

RE: Convert php to cfm
This seems like a pretty straightforward conversion. Create the datasource
in the CF admin to point to MySQL and then simply write a cfquery with the
same basic syntax as is used in the PHP. Specify maxrows=200 and then
cfoutput it via json to your datastore.
I might be missing something but it seems that simple.

Changing the Mail/Spool folder
Hey guys, One of our clients has started sending a lot of email and I'm finding the server running out of space on the CF partition (it's a linux machine). I have a lot of free space on my /usr/ partition and was thinking of creating a folder on that for CF to use. I know the current folder: /opt/coldfusion8/Mail/Spool/ But is there any way to change it? I've been looking through the CF Administrator and can't see anything obvious so I thought I'd ask my friendly neighbourhood gurus :) Thanks in advance, -= Ed ~| 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:348852 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
RE: Changing the Mail/Spool folder
Yeah I cleaned up a load of free space but the partition isn't that large and I wanted to investigate moving the folder so give myself a little more leeway. Yes in answer to your question it's a large number of emails (50k+). For the time being I'll just keep a closer eye on the overall free space. Thanks for the response :) -Original Message- it is not a setting in the cfadmin, it will probably be in one of the config files somewhere. Are you sure it is the mail causing all the space usage, it would have to be a huge amount of mail, unless you have a very small partition with not much space left. Have you tried doing some cleanup of temp files, log files etc to fre eup some space. ~| 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:348856 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

RE: Wysiwyg editor
I've tried most of the WYSIWYG editors and CKEditor is definitely the best in terms of features and customisation. The problem I found is users. You can put notes in you can warn them, you can call them email them and practically burn the Do not paste directly into the editor from ANYWHERE without using the paste from word function mantra onto their eyelids but there will always be one who doesn't do it and calls you to complain that the website is all messed up. I've never found a way around this other than to help the user and remind them from the 50'000th time that they need to use the paste from word function. On the bright side it's easier than telling them to paste things into notepad before copying into the editor. :) -Original Message- The user copys the text from the word document, then instead of pasting it straight into the editor, click the paste from word button and paste the content into the little window that pops up. When you click the button, it puts plain text into the editor. ~| 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:348325 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

CFPDF Performance Issues
I'm having a bit of a weird issue with the creation of PDFs. The issue is quite simple, we have two servers and one is generating PDFs much faster than the other. The weird thing is that the server which is slow is our 64bit production server running CF 8.0.1 Enterprise and the faster server is the old 32bit CF 8.0.1 standard box. One would logically expect the big fast production server to process the PDF much faster. I'm using the exact same CFML page to generate the PDF including the same data, images, etc. The problem I'm having is trying to get to the bottom of what is causing the difference in speed. To that end does anyone know what might cause the CFPDF service to take a long time to create the PDF? I'm seeing nothing in my logs and the performance monitor only tells me that the page is slow. Any ideas are most welcome because this one has me completely stumped. :) ~| 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:345249 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
RE: CFPDF Performance Issues
On the dev server generating a simple page takes about 7 seconds, on the fast production server it takes about 15 seconds. That's including images and stuff. I created simple HTML page with the word test on it and that comes through very quickly so it does feel like the issue is related to images or CSS or something. I've seen a lot of posts online (and in cf-talk) about calling the images using file:// instead of the http. I tried that in my code but it didn't seem to make any difference. I'm using a CFHTTP request to grab a page URL and then taking the #fileContent# and embedding that into the cfdocument tags. It's weird though because both servers talk to the same code and database so if there was an issue with images then one might expect it to happen on both servers. -Original Message- From: Mike Chabot [mailto:mcha...@gmail.com] Sent: 14 June 2011 14:03 To: cf-talk Subject: Re: CFPDF Performance Issues What type of speed differences are you seeing? Milliseconds or seconds? Is it consistently slower at creating any PDF, or is it only a particular PDF that is slow? Is the more powerful server also handling a lot more traffic/processing activity, outside of the PDF creation event? If you remove all the images from the PDF, is there still a noticeable speed difference? -Mike Chabot On Tue, Jun 14, 2011 at 4:48 AM, Edward Chanter firew...@cc.uk.com wrote: I'm having a bit of a weird issue with the creation of PDFs.

I tried a very simple test of using replace() to edit the URL of the images to our dev box so the image come from a different domain.

Ning and CF
I was wondering if any of you lovely people has had any experience integrating a CF based website with a Ning social network. I have a client who has a CF website we host and a ning network he setup separately. He has asked if it's possible for people to register on his site and have the CF server automatically sign them up for ning as well. Or the reverse where someone signs up for the ning network and is then signed up to his CF website. He basically wants to try and get social networking capabilities without having the whole thing built from scratch into his website. There's also the issue of user generated content that he wants to keep on his network. I know ning has an API and I'm reading through the docs at the moment but I was wondering if any of you have any experience with it that you might be willing to share? -= Ed ~| 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:344951 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Using characters other than ? in the url query string
G'day Peoples, Does any of you Jedi Knights know a way of reconfiguring either IIS or Cold Fusion so that it takes a / instead of a ? as the control character in a url cgi query string...? According to the Spider Food site it is possible, but they don't tell you how and I can't find anything on the tech support site that talks about it? The Spider Food URL is: http://spider-food.net/dynamic-page-optimization-b.html Any help would be greatly appreciated.. best wishes, -= Ed ~~ Your ad could be here.

Weird CF5 server problem
I've set up CF 5 on a development machine running NT4 sp6a and the Latest version of Apache as opposed to IIS. I've been seeing a lot of errors in the Event log in NT containing the following: Unable to gain access to the WEB server thru the Service Manager Has any of you seen this before? I've checked the service manager and the cf server should have access to the web server without any problem.. best wishes, -= Ed If you want others to be happy, practice compassion.

CFMail Spool Interval
Maybe I'm being thick here, but what does the spool interval _actually_ do in CF 4.5 Does it control how often the spool restarts ie. It sends all the mail it can and then wait's an specified interval before starting again, or does it control something else.

CF Forums - Weirdness
Ok, we've just set up forums on our system and it's behaving in a rather odd way, perhaps one of you lot has seen this before and knows a workaround. Ok, the way it's working is this: 1. User goes to conference 2. User is allowed in but with no rights to post or reply 3. User wants to post so they click the login/logout button 4. User Registers 5. User confirms password 6. User waits for approval. Now, here's the problem, unless the user logs in unsuccessfully straight after registration their username won't show up in the list of users requiring approval that the admin sees... I've tested it and even tried modifying the code but I managed to kill the server in the process :-/ Can anyone help??? Or possibly recommend another open source threaded discussion app for CF This is starting to drive me a little potty so if anyone wants to help rescue my sanity, please feel free!! best wishes, -= Ed If you want others to be happy, practice compassion.

RE: CF Forums - Weirdness
-Original Message- Is it the free forum from allaire that you mean by CF Forums Yes If so did you know that there is a forum for it at www.forumspot.org Yeah I know but I thought I'd post the question here too becuase the support forum isn't the fastest place in the world to get answers. If you dont know about it its opensource. No, really? You can download it from the above address also. I have, done the download, got the SQL database working, but the forums app itself just doesn't work properly. Or at least not in any way that makes sense to your average mortal. There are a few errors in the files such as attachments etc. Most of the info is on the site above. Yeah, I know but what's not there is an explanation as to why the app works in such a dumb way. I mean if someone registers on the site and user approval is forced then it SHOULD correctly put that user in the list of those requiring approval WITHOUT forcing that user to login first. As it is, unless the user registers then unsuccessfully tries to login, the admin doesn't know that they require approval. -= Ed ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
