Quick Address System - Click System Web Service in ColdFusion MX7
Hi there, We're trying to upgrade our version of Quick Address (www.qas.com) just now. Originally this was done through a COM object call but we're now moving to a Charge by Click Web Service. QAS no longer provides a ColdFusion example for us to use so we're trying to work through this ourselves. The application is running correctly on the server. If we put in the URL to the service in our browser we're getting the SOAP structure fine but when we invoke it in ColdFusion like so: cfinvoke method=DoGetLicenceInfo returnVariable=rawXML webservice=http://mydomain.com:port/proweb.wsdl / I get the following area: Web service operation doGetLicenceInfo with parameters {} cannot be found. This happens for any method I call whether I pass arguments or not (doGetLicenseInfo doesn't require any). We've had a look at this through the JRun TCP Monitor and everything seems to be running fine until the result comes back to CF. At that point it seems to be having a problem. Does anyone have any suggestions on how we can solve this? I'm not finding much on the blogsphere.

SQL Server 2005 permission problems
Hi there, I'm trying to setup an exported 2000 server DB on my local SQL Server (2005 Express) and getting a permissions problem when I try and set things up in ColdFusion. The error I'm getting is: Connection verification failed for data source: myDB java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Cannot open database myDB requested by the login. The login failed. The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Cannot open database myDB requested by the login. The login failed. I have a couple of other SQL Server DBs setup and they work fine which is what's confusing me a bit. I've got a global user account within my DB for Coldfusion and I'm trying to use this, the datasources that are working are using this as well! As I say the only difference with this DB is that it's been built from an SQL script rather than manually by me. I've changed the owner of the tables to DBO and apart from that I can think what else would be different. There isn't a lot on Google about this error message so I thought I'd see if anybody else on here has had this issue.

Re: SQL Server 2005 permission problems
Well I got this up and running through ODBC but unforunately when I did Transfer ORM, which I'm using to manage my DAO, throws an error message. How do permissions work in SQL Server in terms of CF. From what I can all I need is the datawriter and datareader roles applied to that user. This is what I've got on my working DBs and it's fine! Any help would be appreciated.

We actually have a similar kind of setup here but have you considered ANT for your deployment?

Remotely accessing the CFAdmin API
Hi guys, I'm working on an AIR app and as part of this I'm needing to access the CFAdmin API remotely. Does anybody know a way that I could do this without dropping extra files on the server (i.e. ajaxCFC) as these are public access CFCs? The reason I say this is because this app could potentially be used on several different servers (that I don't have direct access to) and I'm trying to find a solution which would mean users can install the AIR app, fill in some preferences/server details and away they go. Any ideas would be appreciated.

ajaxCFC - JSON not defined error
Hi there, I've been trying to experiment with ajaxCFC a bit but keep getting this strange error and I'm not really sure what I've done wrong. I'm using AJAXCFCs jQuery tools for this and in the script below I'm trying to call a CFC which returns a query set. $('#finance').ready(function(){ $.AjaxCFC({ url: com/ajaxGateway.cfc, method: getPaymentRequests, data:{}, serialization: json, success: function(data){ $.dump(data); // dump is not part of AjaxCFC. MyQueryName = eval(( + data + )); } }); }); If I run this though I get a JS error saying: JSON is not defined on line 165 of jquery.AJAXCFC.js I've seen this kind of structure on a few examples online but I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong here. Also,just for additional information, I can get the DWR version to work fine. I just think this method is a bit tidier to work with so I want to give it a try. I'm also using the latest version of the RiaForge site.

var variables in an application.cfc
Why can I not say this inside my onApplicationStart()? var application.com = structNew() If I it out of the application scope it works... var com = structNew() or if I remove the var it's fine as well. application.com = structNew(). But when I try to stay within recommedations of var-ing all my variables it throws an error telling me I can't include . in the syntax.

Re: CFCs - Rule of thumb when to use
Yeh, I'd go with that. Not overkill at all and good thinking. If you also have mini app specific checks, you could extend the 'global' cfc too. And apologies for souding like a patronising git, I misread you as not having used cfcs in an app before ;) Lol, didn't take it that way at all. I just didn't want my initial post to be swamped in detail :-). I've actually been using CFC's for a few years now but I've been unclear as to if I'm using them in the right way. I appreciate that these things aren't black and white but I just want to get an opinion on my approach. In my head I know that I should be using CFCs as a tool for common/specific tasks but then I look at the example(s) below and think a) it's overkill and more code and b) I'm breaking a simple process down into two separate parts which might not be needed this way anyway! No CFC approach: cfif not session.username) cflocation url=login.cfm addtoken=no / /cfif RESULT: Simple, three lines, job donebut no not modular and results in duplication. CFC approach (1): - // Get CFCs UserManager = createObject(component,com.userManager).init(); AppManager = createObject(component,com.appManager).init(); // Check that the username exists in a session (returns boolean). userChecker = IWSCFCManager.getUserName(); // No username. Send them to the login page if(not userChecker){ appManager.getLogingPage(); } RESULT: Process is now in two separate areas so good that it's modular and can be cached but it's more external files to deal with. or I guess all this could be far more generic. CFC approach (2) - More generic CFC approach: - // Get CFC AppManager = createObject(component, com.appManager).init(); // Check that the user exists in the session scope using a generic variable checker. This method takes two parameters, the scope and which variable to look for. Returns boolean. userChecker = AppManager.getVariable(session,username); if(not userChecker){ // This method does a redirect appManager.redirectUser(login.cfm); } RESULT: One CFC and could use this for all kinds of things then again I could just use a structKeyExists :-)... and oh look!!! I'm back to another way of coding CFC approach 1 (ARRGGGHHH!!!) There are many paths but I'm just concerned that I make the wrong one for the wrong reasons :-) @Gerald - Thanks for all those links. OO concepts are something I've never used but I've got a good understanding of how it works in principle. I do aim to keep everything encaplusated in my CFCS and I'm keen to look at things like ColdSpring at some point soon. When I get two geeky minutes :-) Thanks again for the feedback, James ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:303020 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
Re: CFCs - Rule of thumb when to use
I'd recommend looking at ColdSpring or Litewire now. These help answer a lot of the questions about how organise and separate the CFCs and how to make them work with each other. Thanks James but my question was aimed more at what I should be putting in CFC's rather than how I should organise them. Hence why I was asking about the Rule of thumb. I could do everything in them but I'm wondering if there are scenerios where they're overkill, the example being the one I've mentioned. I saw a presentation on ColdSpring at Scotch on the Rocks last year and I've seen a few more online. I'm still trying to get my head around it all though to be honest. Litewire I've not seen but I'll have a look ;-). ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:303026 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
CFCs - Rule of thumb when to use
Hi everyone, I'm just putting the foundation code into a new project and I was wondering if I could get some opinions on CFC approach from people. The vast majority of our systems come from a previous CF5 environment. This is the first project I've had the opportunity to do since we moved into our new CF7 environment though. I'm keen to try and get our more regularly used code into some CFCs so it's easier to plug into things in the future. The issue I've got is that some of the regular code is so smaller that I feel that a CFC is overkill. It's simply things like (pseudo): if (NOT (is this user login?)){ send them to the login page } which appear in every one of our applications but it's a two second job to put it in. At the moment I've got this inside my application.cfc so there is a modular sense already but I'm wondering where do people draw the line when it comes to things like this? Is this overkill or does the benefits of having this in a CFC outweigh that?

Re: CFCs - Rule of thumb when to use
Thanks Dominic, That reminds me that I should add that I'm using Fusebox5.0 (MVC) and looking to do most of the SQL in Transfer as well ;-). My way of thinking was that I'd put the initial checks specific to our core system (this one is a mini app running off the back of the core) within a CFC and call it from the application.cfc. That CFC would sit in a location which is mapped and accessible to all the other apps if we decide to repoint them. It's just as a I was writing it that I thought I'm doubling up what I'm doing here as I could probably just write all this inside the application.cfc instead. Of course doing that means I'm mixing it up with all my custom code. Hopefully you can see the 6 and 3*2's scenerio I've got myself in here :-).

Re: Strange Errors in logs: Suspected Web Crawler
As I didn't get a reply to this one so I thought I'd add a bit more information. These errors seem to follow another which is worryingly similar to this: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect The specific sequence of files included or processed is: X:\OurUploaderFolder\Web\groupDocumentation\2.http:\www.oursite.com\aa\assessments\page.cfm I found a QA on Yahoo Slurp! here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/search/webcrawler/slurp-10.html which shows that Slurp! will fire out fake addresses as a way of establishing whether you use an error page or not. Why it uses a diretory path and how it knows what the directory path is though is a bit of a worry. Checking the IIS logs there is activity from Slurp! but it doesn't always tie up with the times that the errors are appearing in the CF logs, hence why I'm not 100% sure this is web crawl activity. I'm still not fully understanding why there is no application name, unless it's because there is this access to a directory path going on instead of a RUL, but does anybody know a) how I can assign an application to this kind of message or b) how I can stop the crawler from firing these messages off without actually stopping it from crawling the site?

Strange Errors in logs: Suspected Web Crawler
Morning everyone, We've got a strange error which keeps appearing in our logs every day (usually 2-3 but they're increasing) which looks like this: 13-Mar-2008 12:13 Error 0 Element ROOT is undefined in APPLICATION. The specific sequence of files included or processed is: C:\..\display\disp_nopage.cfm, line: 23 This is coming from our global error-handling page. Note that the Application Name column is blank so it doesn't look like it's being assigned to one. If i try and access this page myself or force an error it appears fine and the debugger is showing that the page is assign to the main application. As you can see from the address the file sits in a directory called display. There is no application.cfm file in this directory so I would expect it to drop to the next level and get the application details from there. This would be the root which is where the main application.cfm is sitting. I'm suspecting that this might be a Web Crawler (Yahoo Slurp! appears a lot in the IIS logs) which is testing the error pages but what puzzles me is why there isn't an application being assigned to it. Does anybody have any ideas? Would something as simple as a cfif not isDefined('application.applicationName') cfapplication name=myMainApplication /cfif . fix the problem? Your help would be appreciated.

JRun Clustering problem - Instance keeps shutting down
Hi there, We've been having a lot of problems recently with one of our Cluster instances whereby it keeps either shutting itself down or starts to reject threads. There isn't a set pattern to when this happens but it is only happening on one instance (we have four in total separated 50/50 on two servers). When JRun starts rejecting requests we're seeing this kind of thing in the logs: 27/02 10:44:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/10 Sessions: 4520 Total Memory=65472 Free=8732 27/02 10:45:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/11 Sessions: 4515 Total Memory=56320 Free=8533 27/02 10:46:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 1/10 Sessions: 4512 Total Memory=57600 Free=7505 27/02 10:47:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/10 Sessions: 4518 Total Memory=57920 Free=6622 27/02 10:48:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 1/10 Sessions: 4503 Total Memory=57216 Free=9725 27/02 10:49:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/10 Sessions: 4501 Total Memory=54976 Free=7224 27/02 10:50:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/9 Sessions: 4431 Total Memory=61376 Free=12289 27/02 10:50:41 info Clusterable service JRunProxyClusterHelper successfully removed a peer when that peer left the cluster 27/02 10:51:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/9 Sessions: 4413 Total Memory=56832 Free=11473 27/02 10:52:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/9 Sessions: 4377 Total Memory=56064 Free=11637 27/02 10:53:01 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/9 Sessions: 4341 Total Memory=53504 Free=11657 27/02 10:54:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/9 Sessions: 4300 Total Memory=53568 Free=11636 27/02 10:55:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/9 Sessions: 4263 Total Memory=53568 Free=11543 27/02 10:56:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 4213 Total Memory=53504 Free=11598 27/02 10:57:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 4173 Total Memory=52544 Free=11585 27/02 10:58:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 4132 Total Memory=52608 Free=11501 27/02 10:59:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 4089 Total Memory=52608 Free=11370 27/02 11:00:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 4051 Total Memory=52608 Free=11454 27/02 11:01:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 4014 Total Memory=52096 Free=11537 27/02 11:02:02 metrics Web threads (busy/total): 0/1 Sessions: 3967 Total Memory=52096 Free=11190 .so note that JRun rejects the instance from the cluster but the logs carry on. Also note that the Web Threads just carry on as 0/1 until the instance is started up again. The frequency of this has started to increase and we're now getting this at least once a day. The server is a virtual machine, Win Server 2003, CF7.0 with multiserver JRun. We have it setup on Round Robin with sticky sessions. Just to give you a breakdown on what we've tried already The problem started on the 29th of Jan this year and looking at our logs nothing has changed on or around this time apart from an upgrade to our backup software on the other working server. So I wouldn't expect this to effect the one that is now faulty. We started to add Hotfixes to the server on the 5th of Feb but this hasn't resolved the problem. These included JRun Updater 7 and CF HotFix 3 which had stability fixes for clustering. This was applied to both servers. Checking logs in IIS I'm not seeing anything abnormal. We've compared the setup of the failing instance to the other server instance and apart from a few unique configuration settings both are identifical in JRun. We are considering the option of rebuilding the instance using the working one but to be honest that drawing at straws. Has anybody else had a similar kind of problem or can think of any other ideas as to what might be causing this. Your help would be appreciated and if there is anymore information you need please let me know.

The server is a virtual machine, Win Server 2003, CF7.0 with multiserver JRun. We have it setup on Round Robin with sticky sessions. Just to give you a breakdown on what we've tried already The problem started on the 29th of Jan this year and looking at our logs nothing has changed on or around this time apart from an upgrade to our backup software on the other working server. So I wouldn't expect this to effect the one that is now faulty. We started to add Hotfixes to the server on the 5th of Feb but this hasn't resolved the problem. These included JRun Updater 7 and CF HotFix 3 which had stability fixes for clustering. This was applied to both servers. Checking logs in IIS I'm not seeing anything abnormal. We've compared the setup of the failing instance to the other server instance and apart from a few unique configuration settings both are identifical in JRun. We are considering the option of rebuilding the instance using the working one but to be honest that drawing at straws. Has anybody else had a similar kind of problem or can think of any other ideas as to what might be causing this. Your help would be appreciated and if there is anymore information you need please let me know.

Re: JRun Clustering problem - Instance keeps quot;shutting downquot;
Thanks AJ. Is that the give it a kick approach :-) We actually had a phase before all this started where IIS stopped processing requests and then very kindly jammed up both server instances, stopping the site completely. It wasn't until we restarted it or the server that it would release the other instance. We've not had an IIS-related problem now since the 24th of January so I don't think this is related to that. That and the fact that JRun is actually telling us that it's dropping the instance while IIS shows normal activity. ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:300065 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Re: JRun Clustering problem - Instance shutting down
Right here's hoping that this doesn't start another thread as this is getting embrassing!!! That second set are logs are obviously related to the drop of the instance and JRun starting to hand the sessions across to the other server. Not very helpful but still more information I can work on. Yes you're right we do have another instance on that server and yeah it is strange that out of four instances only one is failing. Or what I should say is that the vast majority of fails are coming from there, we do get a few others here and there but nothing worth highlighting as an issue and related to this. We're going to move the code from the other instance over to this one in the hope that this might fix it. The idea being that we might have a mismatch somewhere that is causing a problem so this would eliminate it this. Stab in the dark really though :-(. Don't know about the shared VM side of things, I'll need to ask the System's guys about that one but again that kind of opens up the field to anything while we've definately got a lead with the JRun logs at the moment. Thanks for your efforts though Brad, it's appreciated. Cheers, James Interesting. I've got to give credit to someone at Macromedia for using the work breakage. :) Well, it seems clear that IIS and the JRun connector are losing contact with the instance and subsequently removing it from the cluster. What we don't know is why. Did I understand that you have at least one other CF instance on the same physical box which does not experience this problem? That would rule out OS and general connectivity problems. I think you said it was on a VM. Is that instance along on the VM, or are there more than one instance on that VM. I don't know where to tell you to go from here. Maybe someone else will chime in with an idea. Just ignore my comment about the dedicated IIS box. For some reason I had gotten it in my head that you had a separate physical server for IIS. I guess I've got the load-balancing diagram stuck in my head that was posted yesterday on the list. :) ~Brad downamp;quot; The log file was from the failing instance.

Re: Having problems with LEN()...
What do you mean by it fails miserably?. You could try simplifying it with a CFSWTCH/CFCASE statement instead... cfswitch expression=#len(form.reorder)# cfcase value=4 cfset Order_Number = / /cfcase cfcase value=5 cfset Order_Number = 000 / /cfcase cfcase value=6 cfset Order_Number = 00 / /cfcase cfcase value=7 cfset Order_Number = 0 / /cfcase /cfswitch cfset Order_Number = Order_Number form.reorder / It pretty much does the same as your IF statement but personally I find that a bit easier to read! Because you've got an obvious pattern as well you could do this in loop and make CF do all the work for you. Dependings on your personal preference I guess.

Re: Having problems with LEN()...
Hi Mike, What do you mean by it fails miserably? Personally I would probably write that differently because it does look a bit messy with so many len() checks. Suggestions could be: Use CFSWITCH/CFCASE. Although it would do the same thing as your if statements it would be a lot cleaner and easier to read. Just check the len in the CFSWITCH expression then based on the value load an appropriate case. The cfelse statement at the end could be covered by a CFDEFAULTCASE. Alternatively you could use a CFLOOP which is feed the length of the form.reorder and then adds a set amount of zeros at the start depending on the difference between the starting value and the value 8. For example if the form.reorder is 4 then you would loop over the Order_Number variable four times adding a 0 at the start of each cycle. As I say that's just personal opinion.

Either there are no methods with the specified method name and argument types, or the method setFontAndSize is overloaded with arguments types that ColdFusion can't decipher reliably. If this is a Java object and you verified that the method exists, you may need to use the javacast function to reduce ambiguity.

Accessing another cfapplications scope
Hi everyone, I've built a little bit of code which loads an .ini file and updates a single app's application scope with any changes. I've been asked to redesign this though so when we do an update in the ini and hit 'refresh' the code goes through ALL of our applications and applies the updates to all of their scopes. I've had a look around online and found a few articles which talk about the theory of being able to see the application scopes of all the other applications on an environment but I was wondering if anybody had any examples which show how one application can update the information of another? One idea we've had is to setup an include in each application. CFHTTP to that page and process the requests from there. That means hard coding a list of every application we have on the server though so I'm holiding on to that one as a plan b until I find out if I can access some kind of Java object in order to gather this information dynamically and run this off one page.

Thanks Chris. I'm actually getting there right now. Typical how these things happen just as you put a post on :). Cheers again, James I think it would actually be pretty simple. You need to get a list of applications (or hard-code the ones you want it to update) Then just do (psudo-code): Loop all your applications cfapplication name=#appName# cfset vars to whatever End loop This should set the vars into each app name you specify as it loops.

Re: Getting a list of all the instances on a server
So how does JRun gather a list of all the instances on its server or the 'cfusion' (port 8300) administrator? I'm just wondering if there is a way to tap into that? Cheers again, James I could be way of base here, but my understanding is you can't. The reason being is that CF is run on an Application Server, in normal installs that is Jrun and they run in their own space without any knowledge of each other.

Re: MX7: Updating a single server in a cluster...
We've got two load-balanced Windows 2003 servers, each with one cluster holding two instances each. The only way I can see I can do this is to create a checklist of all the instances present on a server and keep sending CFHTTP requests through the domain telling it to update the server config. The request then returns the name of the instance which just processed that request and my code ticks it off the list to say that one has been updated. It then loops through it again until all the instances on the list have been done. I'd rather be able to say Update the configruation of the instance(s) on port 8301 of IP address xx.xx.xx.xx. Then repeat this process for port 8302 on the same one. It would be tidier and less of an overhead.

Re: Getting a list of all the instances on a server
But can I ask the age old question What exactly are you wanting to do? No problem - this is actually starting to tie in with my last post MX7: Updating a single server in a cluster... so better to start relating everything together and carry on from one post. I want to be able to update a server config which sits on each instance. The config is the same for each but I need to reinitialise it on all of them at the same time. I'd like to write a script which automates the process of gathering the instance details from a server and updates each one individually as we actually have five servers with multiple instances on the go now. Right now I've got a bit of a manual process going on which identifies via the server_name which server I'm on, it then gets a hard coded list of the instances names and starts firing CFHTTP requests at the server until each instance has updated and returned a value that it's completed. It then ticks that instance off the list and starts the CFHTTP again until all the instances have been done. I've explained this a bit better in the post I've mentioned above but I just think this way of doing it is a bit heavy-handed.

Re: CFOBJECT calling Word.Application for Spell checker problem
The reason it wouldn't uninstall was because there were 20 instances of WINWORD.EXE running in the background of the machine.

Managing Multiple Instances - Best Approach
Morning everyone, I thought I'd do a bit of asking around as I don't seem to be able to find much about this online. I'm curious about how others manage things like updates, testing and release management on a daily basis across multiple instances of CF running on more than one server. We've just started a migration project to move all our applications up from version 5 to MX 7.0 and to load balance everything across 4 Win2003 servers (2 for testing purposes and 2 as our live servers). I've now been given the task of looking at new procedures on managing these servers and the way that our team should control these for the points above. I know you could probably write a couple of books on this subject but I thought I'd just ask for people's experiences and find out what they found to be the best way of managing their code and servers.

MX 7 Training in Scotland
Hi, I was wondering if anybody can recommend any good MX7.0 training companies / consultants in Scotland? I've been asked to look around for suggestions on either an intro-style course to it, so we can learn about the new feature that we could start to introduce into our systems (we're currently running CF5), or something a bit more taylor-made to our situation in a one-2-one. Ideally I'd like to hear of people's first-hand experiences rather than the sales and marketing pitches I'm getting on most of the companies websites.

Re: Setting up SSL in CFMX7
Thanks a lot for your help Dave! I've spent the morning looking into setting up Jrun through IIS on one of the new server Instances and I've got it almost working now. Just in case anybody else has this issue I found this good technote on IIS setup: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/coldfusion/articles/multi_instances04.html As I say I'm almost there but I'm getting a bit of a strange problem with the processing of the page through IIS now. If I try and access I page I get an Exception error: coldfusion.runtime.TemplateNotFoundException - in : line -1 File not found: /test.cfm However, if I refresh the page it appears. Refresh again shows the error and carries on alternating on each request. That's running it through http://localhost/test.cfm (test.cfm is in the route) but trying http://localhost:8303/test.cfm works every time so I'm assuming this is a permissions problem at the IIS side of things (???)

Re: Setting up SSL in CFMX7
This is probably starting to go off topic now but I had a look at the IIS Logs and I'm seeing the following: 2006-11-17 13:16:29 W3SVC753544 127.0.0.1 GET /test.cfm - 80 - 127.0.0.1 Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.2;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322) 404 0 0 2006-11-17 13:16:29 W3SVC753544 127.0.0.1 GET /test.cfm - 80 - 127.0.0.1 Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.2;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322) 200 0 0 2006-11-17 13:16:29 W3SVC753544 127.0.0.1 GET /CFIDE/debug/images/topdoc.gif - 80 - 127.0.0.1 Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.2;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322) 200 0 0 The HTTP codes are literally saying it's there and then it's not. Is this a friday afternoon thing? Are these pages playing peek-a-boo with me, lol? Cheers, James P.S. Logging onto the CF Admin at http://localhost/cfide/administrator is working perfectly fine and I don't see any of these problems within this area.

Re: Setting up SSL in CFMX7
Sorry I'm being thick. It's because the cluster is pointing at IIS NOT the single instance. The error was because the other instance in the cluster didn't have the file setup. Problem solved!

Setting up SSL in CFMX7
Hi everyone, I'm currently working on migrating our applications from CF5.0 to MX7.02. I'm running this over a JRun4 multi-server configuration and everything is up and running apart from the SSL which I'm really struggling with. The problem I have is coming from a simple bit of code in a onRequestStart function: cfscript this.HTTPSecure = #cgi.https#; /cfscript cfif #len(this.HTTPSecure)# eq 0 cflocation url=https://localhost:8301/; addtoken=no / cfelse . /cfif --- If I try and run that the browser just sits there thinking about something and then times out on me. Taking out the secure protocol on the http works fine. Things I tried so far are: 1) Tried this on three separate machines and all are showing the same signs 2) Following Adobe's Technotes on setting up SSL and LDAP by importing my certificates into the C:\JRun4\jre\lib\security\cacerts and confirmed that they've been installed fine through a command prompt - http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19139 3)Tried to follow another Technotes about setting up SSL in JRun Web Server Connector here: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?event=viewid=KC.tn_18203extid=tn_18203dialogID=194654303iterationID=1sessionID=4830fc7d7b9e6c96bc6cstateID=1+0+194658323mode=simple I'm not sure if this is what I'm meant to be doing though as I'm a complete JRun newbie. 4) Enabling SSL in java.xml and changing the port address from 9100 to 443. I wasn't sure if there might have been a conflict in me calling port 8301 for my Instance through the CFlocation and alos trying to secure at the same using a different port. I'm assuming when the instance was setup that the usual port 80 for http requests is just repointed to the instance port 8301? Does have anybody have any pointers that might help?

Re: Setting up SSL in CFMX7
Thanks Bobby, The whole script is: cfif #len(this.HTTPSecure)# eq 0 cflocation url=http://localhost:8301/; addtoken=no / cfelse cfset application.secureAppPath = 'https://' #application.configuration.configvariables.Application_Path# '/wddx' / /cfif I've based that statement on the result 0 because that's the current value in the CGI variable list, but you're right, the original code was looking for 'off'. It's just testing that has taken me down this route. The problem isn't coming from there though because if I even type in https://localhost:8301 straight into the address it isn't running (it's meant to just forward to the file which holds the code above). It just hangs, so it doesn't look like that code is the root of the problem. The two other machines are showing this problem as well and they don't have any CF code running on them at the moment.

Re: Setting up SSL in CFMX7
First, is there a reason you're not using an external web server, like IIS or Apache? That's usually going to be easier to manage, and will give you functionality that the JRun Web Server doesn't. This is probably were my lack of knowledge lets me down so I hope I can answer this ok for you. I've not setup anything through IIS. I've just followed the installation process in ColdFusion and gone with the multiserver configuration (this is to reflect the cluster environment we're about to setup). I've then created an instance and set that up on port 8301. Second, is the JRun Web Server configured to listen for HTTP on TCP/80? By default it isn't, obviously, but once you configure it to listen on the port of your choice, it no longer uses the original port used when initially installed. If that's the case then I'm using the JRun default. How/where do I go about doing that? Third, can you just go to the SSL URL directly? What happens when you do this? The best way to test this is to create a static HTML file and try to access that. It just hangs with both an HTML and CF page.
