RE: Users getting wrong information
Definitely a proxy problem. We have run into this intermittently in the past. Any real permanent fix has to be done at the proxy level (ie, changing settings there), which we've never had any success with. Two possible quick fixes (that, to be clear, don't totally solve the problem): 1) Dump the proxy cache; 2) Change the website coding to visibly stamp a page with the current date & time -- this will force most proxies to recognize pages as having "new" content. -- Kelly Tetterton Technical Lead D U O : C O N S U L T I N G Web Content Management Experts 312.529.3000 : main 312.529.3014 : direct 312.529.3001 : fax http://www.duoconsulting.com -Original Message- From: Web Master [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 7:48 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Users getting wrong information >I have a website that people can login, take a quiz, view their status, >etc...I use cookies to keep track of the users.

RE: Problems setting CFMAGIC
We are having a very similar problem here (just opened up a support case with
MACR this week) -- MX6.1, load-balanced, setdomaincookies=yes, yadda, yadda,
yadda.
So far I've been told by the support person that she doesn't think that the
cfmagic cookie actually exists anymore in 6.1 -- can anyone confirm? are we
just chasing a ghost?

You should never need to mess with the CFMagic cookie. This is just
something that is used for migrating host-based cookies to domain cookies
(in cf 4.5) and should happen all by itself.

Yes, it's a .uk.com domain name so it should be fine... I have JSESSIONID,
CFID and CFTOKEN being set but no CFMAGIC... Its weird...
The last time I did this was in 2001 on a CF 5, 4 box load balanced cluster

RE: IIS6 on Win2K3 with CFMX6.1, connection hotfix
Could this be what you're referring to (posted to CF-Talk, 9.22.04)?: A customer recently pointed out to us that our IIS6 Windows 20003 web srever connector performance appeared substantially worse than the web server connector performance on IIS5 and earlier. We did a little digging and came upon the Microsoft knowledge base article below. The customer reran his tests using the suggested resolution and confirmed that with the suggested registry setting our IIS6 performance is slightly better than our IIS5 performance, as it should be. We'll publish this as a TechNote shortly, but if you're on IIS6, check it out.

RE: Load testing
I won't beat a dead horse here, other than to agree with the previous posters: look at the database and caching strategies first. We documented our recent load testing experience in an April CFDJ article; you can read it here: http://www.duoconsulting.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/news.detail/object_id/5ea7ed33-8896-49d1-9945-e6e216dc85ed/TheArtScienceofLoadTestingonaBudget.cfm -- Kelly Tetterton Technical Lead | Duo Consulting Internet Strategy, Design and Development 312.529.3000| main 312.529.3014 | direct 312.529.3001| fax www.duoconsulting.com -Original Message- From: Dave Watts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, June 20, 2004 7:45 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Load testing > I was wondering what was the general pratice for testing > your app is In my experience, the general practice is to release your application, and it either supports the number of users it needs to, or it doesn't.

Some are free, such as my favorite free load tester, OpenSTA (http://www.opensta.org/). Some are incredibly expensive, such as Segue SilkPerformer, which can run up to $50K.

Unfortunately, load testing isn't a trivial task. In general, though, to oversimplify things a bit, you write a test script which travels through your application, then you give that script to your load test tool and let it run the script with some predetermined number of virtual users. As it runs the script, it measures response time and throughput, and stores those measurements. After the test has been run, you can generate data about which pages took longest on average, and those are your bottlenecks. You can then examine those pages specifically, and use GetTickCount within those pages to find out which section of the page is causing trouble. This kind of load test is called a performance test. You can also use load test tools to perform capacity planning tests. > I liked the example on the houseoffusion.com home page where > the question was asked, "Is CFLOOP really needed?"... little > tricks like that, I'm sure are almost trivial but running > sloppy queries/loopsetc... Just want to tighten it up. I'm sorry, but that kind of question is like asking how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. You won't find your performance problems can be solved by "little tricks" like that. I've analyzed literally hundreds of CF applications, and their problems were never caused by those sorts of things. Instead, the problems almost always come down to poor database schema design, poorly written SQL, inadequate caching, or some combination of those.

losing client variables in mx6.1
There is a thread on the macr forums (http://webforums.macromedia.com/coldfusion/messageview.cfm?catid=7&threadid=384991) which seems to describe a problem we are now having: namely, that sometimes our client variables are getting lost. The short version: we are (intermittently) having the same problems described throughout this thread; we are on mx6.1, W2K. But we may have tracked this down: Can anyone confirm or deny that mx6.1 now creates cookies that truncate any domain beginning with more than 3 alpha-numeric characters? The longer version: We have several application environments: 1) 127.0.0.1 or localhost 2) dev.[app_name].[company_name].com 3) stage.[app_name].[company_name].com 4) www.[app_name].com The problem has crept up in situation #3, or #1 sometimes, where we would *occasionally* lose client variables. I could verify that the variables were getting stored in the database, but they would just be "lost" when the app tried to retrieve them via the cookie. On closer inspection, the cookies are being written out thusly: 1) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 4) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note that for #3 (the stage example), the "stage" part of the domain is being cut off; likewise, if you use "localhost" for #1, that gets cut off. Needless to say, this makes it difficult for the cookies to be properly associated with their client variables. So: can anyone else verify this behavior? Is there any bug fix for this? Does it mean that in mx6.1, we can only use domain names with 3 leading alpha-numeric characters? Kelly Tetterton duo | Technical Lead One Web Company.

OT: SES, logging problems, and jrun isapi filter
We've been fighting a battle with SES urls here for almost a year -- which is to say that the conversion worked just fine, but we couldn't get the darned pages to log properly in IIS (we had all the extended logging checked, etc, but nothing beyond index.cfm would log on our production servers). We think we have solved the problem by enabling the jrun isapi filter; now logging appears to be happening (albeit with everything in the stem field, not the query field). First: can anyone else who's had this problem in the past do the same and verify that this solves the problem? Second: is anyone aware of any performance or security downsides to enabling the jrun isapi filter? Thanks in advance -- Kelly Tetterton duo | Technical Lead One Web Company.

Third-Party Search Engines with Customizeable Results?
We are currently using FreeFind for many of our clients, and it does a very nice job of providing search functionality, but our clients are increasingly asking for something that allows for a customized set of search results pages. For instance, several of our clients would like a search engine that displays the results by *section* of the website, and then by relevance within those sections. 1) Does anyone know of a search engine that does this? 2) What other search engines do people use that they're happy with?

RE: DWMX 2004 - Whats new for us?
Just to chime in (especially for MACR folks on the list): I too have the same questions. I even listened in on one of the Breeze presentations, and there was very little info about CF-specific items in the new product. I appreciate that overview presentations cannot cover everything, but it would really be helpful to have a list of such items on the website. For instance, I cannot imagine living without the CRTL-M toggle feature. I doubt that a salesperson will know or care whether that's a feature of DWMX, but surely someone would have documented its inclusion (if it was included)? and surely such documentation could be posted?

I've gone through all the features in the Macromedia Site and I'm still confused. I went to the Dreamweaver MX Vision session at last year's DevCon and one of the things that impressed me was the speaker's admission that they knew they hadn't created a DWMX that was able to be everything for the CF Coder. He promised that the next version (2004) was going to be the one that "got it right for CF coders". I also went to Ben's Bird of a Feather on the same subject and there was a lot of good stuff that came out of that forum as well. However, the stuff I am seeing on the Web site, CSS Support, built in graphics editor, still seems to mostly be aimed at the designer and not the programmer. Could someone who was on the beta (assuming your NDA is expired) or from MACR give us a listing of updates that will benefit CF Coders? Can we now: Assign Snippets to keystrokes? SQL builder ala Homesite +? Anything else? I'm really curious. I still haven't really switched to DWMX since I can code faster in Homesite+. I've written extensions for DWMX so I don't consider myself a neophyte or someone who hasn't tried. I really want to like it.

OT: searching segmented, restricted sections of a website

session timeout clarification
Folks -- a colleague of mine asked me to help him with some changes to the way he was treating his session variables, but in doing so, I've run into something of a misunderstanding of how I *thought* session variables worked. Specifically, in the test code below, I would expect that 1) when you came to index.cfm (the home page of the site), you would get fresh session info; 2) when the session timed out, you would automatically get fresh cfid/cftoken info; 3) when pasting a url with *old* cfid/cftoken session info, you would automatically be delivered new cfid/cftoken session info 4) after a session times out, when coming to the home page again, you'd get fresh session info. #1 and #4 are definitely happening, but #2 and #3 are definitely NOT happening. (And yes, I also pushed down the max & default timeouts in my cf admin to match the low timeouts in the test code below.) Instead, the pages happily accept the old, clearly expired, cfid/cftoken session combos. So, -- are my expectations wrong? -- or am I missing something that I should be doing in the code? -- or both, perhaps? I'm willing to accept any or all at this point -- just hoping that someone can point me in the right direction. * Application.cfm ** * index.cfm ** Click here to get to page 2 *** dsp_page2.cfm ** Click here to get to page 1 ******* Kelly Tetterton Technical Lead - duoDesign One Web Company.

cfmx server problem: serving zero-length pages
Folks -- I'm wondering if anyone else has run into this problem: we are hosting a site that we've just recently moved to mx, and even after months on internal testing, we are now running into a very odd problem in production. Occasionally, the site will "stop working" by serving up what appear to be zero-length files. My vagueness here is deliberate -- there are no smoking guns in the log files, and as far as IIS is concerned, the website is still functioning. So to get the site working again, we have to do hard reboots (stopping & starting the services doesn't get it back on its feet). Relevant variables: -- CFMX, W2K, IIS, SQL2K -- FB3 site using SES urls More variables: this seems to occur in the midst of spidering from FreeFind, which is actually a very well-behaved spider. Many of the urls have "/RequestTimeout/500" appended to them (for old legacy reasons), and I've read some weirdnesses regarding RequestTimeout and mx. And although this glitches are somewhat correlated to high traffic, that doesn't seem to be the determining factor. So, 1) has anyone run into anything like this? 2) any ideas as to what might be causing this sort of behavior? And finally, 3) how many people out there are actually using mx in production environments? Any help/insight appreciated -- Kelly Tetterton Technical Lead - duoDesign One Web Company.

Why FB3? (Was RE: FBX3 AND CFMX)
Per Bryan's post below: Pretty much everyone in my office started with CF and then picked up FB along the way -- precisely because we needed a consistent methodology. I spoke at the Fusebox conference last year regarding "Selling Fusebox to Managers: A Successful Case Study" -- it basically talks about our own FB experiences and why it works for us. You can access it at http://www.duodesign.com/presentations/. The main site for the case study, btw, has just been ported to cfmx: http://www.chicagoparkdistrict.com And just to be clear: I don't disagree with most of what's been said here, especially the reiteration of the "use what works for you" mantra.

RE: mx conversion problem: code exposed: SOLUTION
I wanted to respond to the thread I started a few days ago with the solution we finally came to. The problem, just as a reminder, was the hitting the main page of the app would just show exposed code, and all sub-pages would just immediately show a "page not found" browser error. Relevant data: -- app written in FB3 -- using SES urls -- W2K server -- IIS The solution, as written up by one of my colleagues (note that we didn't have to do any re-install of the server): Here are the steps and their explanations for reviving our server: 1. In the c:\cfusionmx\wwwroot\web-inf\web.xml file, we had to add the following code: CfmServlet * This was to enable the use of search engine friendly URL's. 2. We had to run the Remove_ALL_connectors.bat file in c:\cfusionmx\bin\connectors 3. We then had to run the IIS_connector.bat file. We had to do these two steps because the associations to JRun and Cold Fusion in IIS were missing. 4. We then had to delete the IIS web site instance for the site, and re-create it, as the connectors bat only applies settings to the Master settings, not existing instances. We also had to delete and re-create the default web site to get the CF Admin working.

RE: Kiosks
Just an alternative voice here... My company just completed a kiosk project for one of the local park districts; it's a cf app running against a database that pushes data out to a stand-alone kiosk that's primarily flash. It's working really nicely for the client. Short version of how it's built: the admin runs as a standard web application. Four times a day, there's a scheduled task that builds text files and swfs (using generator, developer version) and pushes them out to an ftp site. The kiosk machine also has 4 scheduled task times where it goes out & grabs the latest files from the ftp site. Voila! The kiosk itself is a touchscreen monitor running IE, but using SiteKiosk software to lock down the browser.

Most kiosks are in fact touchscreen monitors (there are proper kiosks systems, but can be very expensive!) which are running either IE in full screen mode, or Director/Flash applications as stand alone projectors.
