BlueDragonJX WSDL issues

2011-04-08 Thread Ken Ferguson

Anybody ever experience any problems calling web services with BlueDragon JX. 
I’m on 7.0 awaiting an upgrade to 7.1. When calling a web service, I get the 
following error: “Problem buiding WSDL classes for http...”
 
I’ll share my code below, but the funny thing is that this will work on 
BlueDragon.net, CF8 and CF9. I’ve seen some talk out there about BDJX and 
some axis problems 
(http://code.google.com/p/openbluedragon/issues/detail?id=301), but was 
wondering if anyone else had seen (or even better yet solved) this problem 
themselves...
 
wsObj = createObject(“webservice”, 
“https://www.pathtowsdlurl.com/service.asmx?wsdl”);
ping = wsObj.theMethodInQuestion(arg1=”x”, arg2=”y”);
 
I’ve also broken it down to a cfinvoke call with no luck. I can browse the 
wsdl just fine, I can cfhttp to the wsdl and dump it on the page... I can move 
the exact code over onto a box running the app servers mentioned above and run 
it without any trouble... I even tried to run it with the wsdl2java arguments 
in the createObject and in the cfinvoke (using –a, –w, and both) – no 
dice.
 
Any ideas??
 
Thanks,
Ferg

CF8 on Windows 2008 Web Edition

2008-05-05 Thread Ken Ferguson
Anybody running this combination of CF and OS? We're looking at grabbing a 
couple new servers and might go with Win08. If anybody's had any experience 
with the two together (CF8 is supported on Win08), please let me know.

Re: Odd custom tag issue

2008-01-04 Thread Ken Ferguson
Naming the files identically was a mistake from the start. I copied the 
application to duplicate it for another app and I just forgot to change the 
name. So, this shouldn't actually cause any problems, assuming I don't make the 
same mistake again. I wonder if I'd have had the same problem if the custom 
tags were in a directory under the webroot, anybody know the answer to that? 
What if I had two custom tags, each named custom_tag.cfm in a customtags folder 
under two separate webroots, would the same thing happen? Surely not, right?

Alright then, that one falls squarely under the heading of questions you should

Odd custom tag issue

2008-01-04 Thread Ken Ferguson
OK, I've got a strange thing happening this AM. I can't seem to figure out why 
a custom tag is getting executed WHERE it is getting executed.

I've got an application that lives in a folder; let's call it "myapp", which 
lives in "C:\apps\myapp". I've got a custom tag path in the CF Administrator 
set to "C:\extensions\customtags"

Under that folder, I've got three folders:
ferguson
myapp
myotherapp

Those three folders have several custom tags each. One of which is 
display_error.cfm. I noticed that when running the myapp application, when I 
call  that it gets executed from the ferguson directory. I 
thought that might be because it just starts in that custom tag path directory 
and runs the first file called display_error.cfm that it finds and the ferguson 
directory, alphabetically speaking, is the first one there that contains that 
file. So to fix this, I renamed that file (in the ferguson directory) to 
ferg_display_error.cfm. Now when I get to  I get an error 
message saying, "File not found: 
C:\extensions\customtags\ferguson\display_error.cfm" Why is it looking there? 
Why is it not continuing through the folders until it finds 
C:\extensions\customtags\myapp\display_error.cfm, which is most certainly there?

I may just be making the stupidest mistake here, but I've backed up all the way 
across the room and still can't see it.

Thanks,
Ferg

MC SecureCode

2007-06-30 Thread Ken Ferguson
Has anyone had any experience implementing the MasterCard SecureCode auth 
check. It'd be especially helpful to hear from anyone who did it through 
Cybersource. I've got my request going to the CS test server, but I keep 
getting a reason code 102 (invalid field). When I output what's invalid, it 
says that the card_accountNumber is invalid, though it's set as 
, just as the docs say it should be. I've also tried it with 
Maestro, but I get the same results. I'm kind of stuck, so any help would 
certainly be appreciated.

Qry help...

2006-12-03 Thread Ken Ferguson
I'm having a small query brain-fart that I can't seem to overcome. It's
not that difficult, but I keep screwin' it up.
 
Given three tables with relationships such as these:
 
*Incidents
incID
 
*People
personName
incID
 
*ToolsUsed
toolID
incID
 
The tools used will either have some id in it or it will have -5 if no
tool was used. For those of you who are undoubtedly about to ask, this
data is generated on a national standard, so I can't eliminate the -5;
it's far out of my control. What I'm trying to do, in a single query, is
to get the percentage of time that no tool was used by each responder.
So in the example below, I'd like to have results for John and Sue
(together in a single query) showing the percentage of time each didn't
use a tool.
 
 
*Incidents
(say the table has incID values of 1 through 9)
 
People
John - 1
John - 2
John - 3
John - 4
John - 5
Sue - 6
Sue - 7
Sue - 8
Sue - 9
 
ToolsUsed
(incID-tool)
1 - hammer
2 - -5
3 - wrench
4 - -5
5 - allen wrench
6 - pipe wrench
7 - chisel
8 - -5
9 - -5
 
So, I'd like to see:
John - 40% - 5 incidents
Sue - 50% - 4 incidents
 
Thanks,
Ferg

I'll throw out my vote for Aqua Data Studio, which also will manage SQL

RE: Excessive Memory Usage CFMX 7 Standard Windows 2003 resulting in Crash

2006-09-19 Thread Ken Ferguson
You're right, so I looked around at the rest of our servers. They're all
Win2k3/ CF7 and none have SQL Server. RAM usage for the jrun service
seems to hover between 85,500K and about 188,000K. All but one of those
has traffic which is really quite heavy in relation to the one trouble
machine.

55,144K is rather low for jrun - on my dev box its around 50,000k when
server starts then it goes to about 80,000k after few hours of
development.
That is with one developer working on few sites max,

Come to think of it, virtually all of my CF performance problems started
just about the time I added an application to the server which uses SQL
Server. This is a server on which there are only about two or three
people at any given time - MAX. I wonder if this is a driver issue or
what? I just looked right now, because pages are taking forever to load
and the jrun.exe is using 312,469K of memory and 97% of CPU. I've got
another server with Win2K and SQL Server which has MUCH more traffic and
jrun.exe is using 55,144K and hasn't restarted in weeks.

Hi Thomas,

It's a real relief (in a way) to know we are not the only ones
experiencing
this issue - as at least if it is a recognised issue, macrodobe may fix
it
at some point (although based on my experiences today even attempting to
send a support email to adobe, I wonder if that is a valid assumption)

First time in over six years of using CF that I've had a crash that I
haven't been able to ascertain the cause... been tearing my hair out...

Thanks for your suggestions with regards to SQL connections - I will
look
into these and see if any are relevant in our hosting environment.

Have other people just been having a problem with CF 7? or has it also
been
an issue in CF 6.1?

Also, has anyone experiencing this problem found any benefit from
installing
the 7.0.2 updater? - I have scheduled downtime for midngiht tonight to
install the updater... not that I could see anything in the release
notes
that made me hopeful that this would make any difference...

Cheers

Dan.

+1 for Navicat, it's pretty nice. I've spent years using SQL Svr
Enterprise Mangler and Toad and now I've been on MySQL a lot the last
couple of years and Navicat seems to be about the best **for the
money**. EMS SQL Manager is really nice as well, but it's about twice

RE: Odd installation issue

2006-09-13 Thread Ken Ferguson
That has been my experience every other time too. This is the first time
I've ever had any issue with installation and that's a LOT of
installations! I'll try disabling everything else that's running on the
box that I can disable and see if I can get it to go past that step. The
strangest thing is that it serves CF pages just fine; it's just the
admin that I can't get into. Surely there should be a method for making
an end-run around that bit and configuring anything that it missed by
hand?

I was hoping I'd get someone post who had this exact same problem last
week and fixed it by doing x. No such luck though, huh?

Thanks,

I have had NAV stop at the point speak of it.  NAV has a habit of
thinking
java changes are virus related.

Other than NAV, I have not seen a stopping point at the configuration
before.  Typically if you get the configuration after deployment, your
installation was successful enough to execute CFML correctly.

I am not attached to use DW as it may seems. If you read the comments I
posted along the years (including this thread) you can see by yourself.

I currently use a mix of DW, Homesite and CFEclipse to write CFML, I
think 
they are all missing in different areas.

I actually think that the number one issue CF developers are facing is
the
lack of a state of the art IDE. Something equivalent to Visual Studio
for
...NET, Zend Studio for PHP, IntellJ or Eclipse for Java.

CFEclipse could have the potential to be that kind of tool but, in my
own 
opinion, it's not there yet.

RE: XML Document Object is NOT a struct?

2006-09-04 Thread Ken Ferguson
You reference it similarly to the way you reference a stuct, but it's
silly to say that it is represented as such, because it certainly is
not. That's like saying a query is represented as a struct just because
you can access it similarly. The doc clearly says that "An XML Document
Object is represented in CF as a structure," therefore you should be
able to use struct related functions ON THE DOCUMENT OBJECT. 

Anyway, I think we've managed to figure out that it's just an error in
the docs.

Subject: Re: XML Document Object is NOT a struct?

I read the documentation that is confusing you.

Description: Creates an XML document object.
Returns: An empty XML document object.

IsStruct will be no because if you use cfdump for the varaible, it
returns
an XML object and not a struct.

The phrase that I see that you are referring to:
Usage: An XML document object is represented in ColdFusion as a
structure.

Well, this statement may just be an incorrect way of stating the data
type.
The examples that they use is very much Structure related:

MyDoc.xmlRoot.XmlAttributes["Version"] = "12b";

This is indeed a structure notation to get the "Version" item from the
xmlRoot collection.  The XMLAttributes portion of the XML Element is of
type
struct.

XML Children for a given element is stored as an array.

Where you test isStruct is really the issue.

So, as per the docs for XMLNew, "An XML document object is represented
in ColdFusion as a structure." This doesn't seem to be true though. I
have an xml string I've parsed into an XML document object and I can't
access it with any of the structure functions. I know there are other
ways to access it and that's what I'm doing, but when I saw that line in

structFind. falied to work. Am I insane, or is this just an error in the

structure, so I thought this would work:
xmlD = xmlParse(xmldoc);
writeOutput(isStruct(xmlD));

Oddly though, this outputs NO. Seems to me that if the XML Document
Object was actually represented as a structure (as the docs say), then
that should output YES. I guess it's not that big a deal. It's not too
difficult to get all the data out of the document. It'd just be nice to
have a simple XmlToQuery or an XmlToStruct function built in to make
things even simpler. What would be even better is if the agency who
created this damned XML schema had created a sql annotated schema which
would actually work with SQL Server's XMLBulkLoad. Then I wouldn't have
to fool with this at all and I could just load it all straight into the
db.

You say it is a string? Have you ran it into ColdFusion with ParseXML?



Then perform the struct calls on foo?

Subject: XML Document Object is NOT a struct?

So, as per the docs for XMLNew, "An XML document object is represented
in ColdFusion as a structure." This doesn't seem to be true though. I
have an xml string I've parsed into an XML document object and I can't
access it with any of the structure functions. I know there are other
ways to access it and that's what I'm doing, but when I saw that line in
the docs I got excited and was then disappointed when isStruct and
structFind. falied to work. Am I insane, or is this just an error in the
docs?

RE: CFLOCK problem

2006-09-01 Thread Ken Ferguson
I think that the key here is that this is an indicator of how the rest
of the code is likely written. While it's silly and is likely to slow
things down a bit, I doubt seriously that this one useless bit of code
is causing the server to crash. However, I'd be willing to bet that the
rest of the application has similar flaws and probably has several that
are much more problematic. I'll bet that's what's bringing it down.

Subject: Re: CFLOCK problem

Well, I guess is there are exclusive server scope locks like this one
all over the place, you are basically single threading the entire
server in multiple points, including all apps.  Under the right load I
suppose that could slow things down enough to start queueing threads
and bring the server down, but that would require these locks all over
the place, and for the load to be healthy.

If there are readonly/exclusive locks nested within each other all
over, then that also introduces the possibility of deadlocks.

So, yes, this could be part of a larger problem, but in and of itself
it's pretty harmless.  If there are lots of them, I'd remove the
un-needed ones (probably virtually all of them if they are like this
one) and see if that helps.

However, if the original programmer did something this ridiculous,
there probably a ton of other more damaging stuff in the codebase
that's causing more serious problems.

jQuery is 15k, does animation, dom traversing and animation all in one.

Plus it's only one file. I didn't move away from CFAJAX because it uses
multiple files. I moved away from it because it's cumbersome to use. To
use
jQuery I simply use one script tag to call it:


If I want to load something via AJAX I do this:
function searchByKeyword() {
var term = $('#searchfield').val();
$.get("includes/q.cfc?method=searchByKeyword&term=" +
term,function(result){
eval( 'var ' + result );
$('#title').html(r.title);
$('#content').html(r.content);
    });
};

How much easier can it be?

I'm leaning towards Dojo or JQuery. Dojo is a monster though and JQuery 
has an easier learning curve plus a great plug-in feature.

Any thoughts?

"...design with a standards compliant browser like Firefox or Opera
and then fix IE as you go (I imagine you probably already do this). That
way you catch the bugs/issues one at a time as they happen, so you are
far more likely to be able to identify the offending code."


If anyone hasn't seen it yet (though it's not new) there's another great
plugin for Firefox that makes this even easier. I've had the "view in
IE" plugin for some time and use it often to pop open IE and take a look
at how things are going. About a week ago I stumbled on one that's even
better - "view in IE tab". Now it's *really* easy to open a page in IE
while you're working and then killing it is as easy as closing the tab.

Subject: OT: XML and SQL Server 05

I've got something that's a bit OT here. I was going to write something
to
parse all of this XML against these XSD's, but I just don't want to do
it.
All I want is to be able to import the data right into SQL Server. I
know
that xml works as a datatype in SQL Server 05, but that's not what I
need.
What I need is XML Bulk Insert. I've written a VBScript to run the bulk
insert with the xml and the schema. I was so excited that I was about to
watch all that data just fly into the db. But of course, reality had to
show
its ugly head. Instead of a bunch of data, I got only one frustrating
error
message: "Multiple base for derived type is not supported" - that's the
message. What do you mean it's not supported? Multiple types are basic.
Does
anyone have any experience with this and if so, would you be willing to
give
me a few pointers? I have a almost a gig of xml data I need to import
against a schema that is about 12,340 lines long!
 
Thanks,

RE: Quick CF & CSS question.

2006-08-18 Thread Ken Ferguson
Che,

You could always convert this to a CF file and just cfinclude it in your
header file where you call your style sheets in the first place. I do
this for a lot of my sites. I was just explaining how I do this in a
post a couple of weeks ago, here's what I was saying...

"My CSS code is all in a template called css.cfm. It's
basically a call to a cfc which determines the skin to be used and
fetches all of the css settings (colors, fonts...) and then builds all
of the css right there in a cfm file. In this way, I'm able to have one
style sheet for each layout option, instead of having to have several
for each option. Given three layouts, I've got three stylesheet
templates instead of having a winter, spring, summer and fall stylesheet
for each different layout. So I do have css files, they're just in cfm
files and I'm most happy when my regular editor can handle that css code
the way I want it to without having to mess with switching perspectives
of anything like that."


In my opinion, this approach really works well when it fits the project.
It'd certainly make it easy to do what you're wanting to do.

Thanks,
 
Ken Ferguson

You can nab a function from:

It's pure spherical trig, so the distances you come out with are very

Why not just calculate it yourself?  Get a table with lat and long, and
use
a function to calculate the distance.  I found one fairly easy when I

RE: Zipcodes addresses and all that jazz

2006-08-16 Thread Ken Ferguson
Check out my blog entry here:

http://www.fergusonhouse.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/7/27/coldfusion-geocode

This actually uses geocoder.us to get the lat/lon for a given address.
What you could easily do is to mark an address as "suspect" if no
lat/lon is returned. However, whether you use geocoder or fake the funk
against the google maps api, you'll never be able to absolutely say that
an address is incorrect, as such. You'll only be able to say that it's
not in the database in question. My address couldn't be found on Google
Maps for the first 2 years that I lived there.

RE: CFIF inside a Form

2006-08-11 Thread Ken Ferguson
Coding style is each to his own; however, I'd certainly like to point
out that there are other possibilities to explain padded data than a
poorly designed database. We found that the MySQL Connector J (whichever
version was current last October) was padding all varchar data with 2
spaces. It didn't have those spaces in the database, but they were
certainly there when you dumped the value after the query ran.

Fo shizzizle.

I mean, ok, I have pretty big monitors, and my resolution is set pretty
high, however big strings like that run off the screen, also how is that
more readable, or easier to understand?

I know that with the advancement in processing power the performance hit
might not be what it once was, might not be anything at all really, but
I
would personally prefer that whoever comes after me into a project can
figure it out without tearing their hair out.

Also, the trim on data I am assuming is coming from a db?  What's that
all
about?  If your DB is properly designed, and using the data type
appropriate
to the data, you shouldn't have leading or trailing spaces to worry
about,
worst case you should be able to clean that up on input.

Honestly, I almost wish that Adobe would do away with iif and evaluate.

RE: site that can't be copied

First off, I personally hate it when people do this kind of crap.
However, I certainly do understand where it comes from. I've had tons of
clients want to this kind of thing to "protect" their content.

I agree that this approach is pointless when the people looking at the
screen are experienced developers and/or power web users. However, I'd
be willing to bet a large amount of money that I know 10 intelligent
people who couldn't figure out a way around this without spending quite
a lot of time on it. In the mind of said marketing muppet, that's good
enough. 

An experienced thief doesn't care if your car door is locked and you've

RE: Unofficial CF Developer Salary Survey

2006-08-03 Thread Ken Ferguson
That's too simple to figure out to spend any time messing with it. If
someone is making $45/hr, that's 90K/yr. If they're making $60/hr, then
that's 120K/yr. You just double the hourly and add a K.

40 hrs/wk * 50 wks * hourly rate.

Whether it's because you don't get the full 40 or because of vacation...
you trim the weeks by 2 down to 50..

RE: Eclipse and CSS

2006-08-02 Thread Ken Ferguson
Personally, I do all my css and js by hand, so the only thing I really
care about is highlighting and formatting. However, this is a sentiment
that's been echoed a couple of times during this thread, so I thought
I'd sound off. Surely nobody on this list thinks that you should change
the way you're doing ANYTHING so that your freakin' editor will work
better, right??? I mean, I know all the great arguments behind
separating code and presentation and I preach the same things, but IDE
limitations are certainly not one of the reasons I'd ever give for it
being a good idea.

Second off, I have several sites that run off of this set of core files
I carry around with me. They handle skins in what I think is a fairly
cool way. My CSS code is all in a template called css.cfm. It's
basically a call to a cfc which determines the skin to be used and
fetches all of the css settings (colors, fonts...) and then builds all
of the css right there in a cfm file. In this way, I'm able to have one
style sheet for each layout option, instead of having to have several
for each option. Given three layouts, I've got three stylesheet
templates instead of having a winter, spring, summer and fall stylesheet
for each different layout. So I do have css files, they're just in cfm
files and I'm most happy when my regular editor can handle that css code
the way I want it to without having to mess with switching perspectives
of anything like that.

RE: ColdFusion Tag and Attribute Case

Subject: ColdFusion Tag and Attribute Case

I'm just curious as to how many of you would force CF tags, and
attributes, to either all lower- or upper-case letters rather than
mixed-case.
 
Which would you choose:
 
cfQueryParam
cfqueryparam
CFQUERYPARAM
 
or
 
returnAsBinary
returnasbinary
RETURNASBINARY
 
Personally, I like the mixed-case because it makes the tags quicker to
read.  I also don't feel bad about this because these tags are not
returned in the HTML response.
 
DW will let you specify the exact case of each tag, which is perfect for
this.
 
Regardless, I still lower-case all HTML tags and attributes.
 
Opinions?

RE: Hey, does anyone have any ideas regarding a "top 40" voting system?

2006-08-01 Thread Ken Ferguson
I'd even break it down further Jeff. I'd have them only pick 1 or maybe
up to 5 songs out of the list and follow your points-accumulation idea
from there. Then you can easily rank songs based on their point totals.
Also, as far as presentation goes, I'd try to randomize the presentation
order if I were doing it to try and avoid certain songs always being
toward the top of the list.

Subject: Hey, does anyone have any ideas regarding a "top 40" voting
system?

I've been asked to help out a friend conceptually, but I'm not sure
exactly how to proceed. He wants to have a "top 40" voting system where
they will put 40 song titles up on a web page, and people will "vote" on
them. 

Sounds pretty simple, but I'm not sure about what would be the best way.
He seems to be leaning toward "we'll put them on the site, and people
will put them in the order that they want them in" but that sounds kinda
clumsy and unwieldy. I can't see people having the patience to REALLY do
that. What about the ones near the bottom? Would people just get tired
after about 20 of them and just submit? What would you do about ones
that don't get "votes" or aren't filled in? What order would you present
the songs in? Alphabetical seems the likely choice, but what about all
the songs that begin with "W" or "T" or the ones shoved to the bottom?
Would the songs beginning with A naturally gravitate to the top simply
because of the way they're presented to the user?

Do you see where I'm coming from? Has anyone ever built a voting
tabulation system to do something like this? 

I was leaning towards a "points system" where maybe people picked their
top ten songs, and they got a point value based on their ranking. 10
points for first place, 9 for second, etc, and totaling up all the
"scores" each song gets.

I realize that a TRUE top 40 system is a system that rewards sales, and
so I'm struggling with how to rectify "voting" for something that would
normally be easily to tabulate.

Any suggestions, both from an interface standpoint, and the pure
tabulations standpoint?

Subject: OT: Security Cert, transferable?

Hey all,

Is is possible to transfer a security cert issued by a certifying
authority 
such as GeoTrust from one host to another?  From what I can gather, it's
not 
possible because the CSR and private key are specific to the host
they're 
generated by, and these are used by the certifying authority to generate
the 
public cert.  But, I'm not sure I have a full grasp on how it all works.

Here's my understanding:

- Generate CSR and private key at the host
- Send private key to certifying authority
- Purchase cert, certifying authority issues public certificate based on

private key
- I install public certificate at my host, all three components must be 
there: CSR, Private Key, Public cert

Do I have this correct or am I missing something there.

RE: postal code webservice

2006-07-27 Thread Ken Ferguson
What do you mean, "the difference between the two?" Do you mean you'd
like to find the distance between the two zip codes? If so, I'd
recommend you check out geocoder.

http://geocoder.us/help/city_state_zip.shtml 

you can get the lat/lon for a zip, like this:
http://geocoder.us/service/csv/geocode?zip=75034

so if you get it for both zips and then calculate it with the great
circle equation, Robert's your father's brother.

Does anyone know a reliable site to lookup zip codes, more specifically
I want to look up the difference between two?
I googled and saw some, but didn't know how reliable they were.

Thanks,
Seth

RE: decrypt an old tag

2006-07-27 Thread Ken Ferguson
Posted this yesterday, but somehow I posted it to the wrong thread.

It's much easier to go with your own decryption than it is to pay them
for theirs. Try something like: (of course you'll have to download
cfdecrypt.exe, but it's out there with a simple Google)






"#directory#\#name# |||
#replacenocase(directory,'\appdir\','\appdecrypted\')#\#name#"

Subject: decrypt an old tag

I have an old custom tag I bought and paid for years and years ago and
still need . 

 

Apparently, after moving it to an upgraded server (4.0 to MX), it no
longer works.

 

Apparently, the company that sold it to me is now out of business.  I
don't think the tag is supported or sold.

 

It's FuseAds.

 

The only thing I can really think to do is decrypt the tag.  I remember
there used to be a utility floating around out there to do it, but I
can't find it.

 

H.

Re: cfhtmlhead and webservice woe

2006-07-26 Thread Ken Ferguson
That's funny, in CFAjax this doesn't cause a problem at all. I was just 
blogging about using firebug and noticed how it comes back differently 
in the response, so that preceding script blocks don't break the return.

http://www.fergusonhouse.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/7/26/firebug-cfajax

One of the other guys here at the office was having trouble trying to 
use AjaxCFC and when we looked at the response in firebug, you could see 
the differences in the response that was messing things up. Try looking 
at your posts and responses in firebug and you'll see the difference 
too. My coworker is planning to jump into the AjaxCFC code and fix this, 
but has yet to find the time.

Good point Tom, though I guess "screaming it into the void where nobody 
WAS listening" has the same result as the altogether more correct,  
"screaming it into the void where nobody COULD listen." The point being 
that my screaming seemed to be wasted energy in that my message didn't 
appear to be getting through to the intended recipients.

My only advice for working with AC is to run away, terribly fast. It is 
a total piece. I know you're looking for advice, so I will give you 
some. Chalk up what you've spent on it as a loss and ditch it 
immediately. If you really want a CF-based off-the-shelf packaged cart 
application, look into Cartweaver or CFWebstore... Getting out of bed 
with AC now is going to save you more money and frustration in the long 
run than it's going to cost you to write it off and go with something 
worth using.

This is that one product that was SO BAD that I promised not only never 
to work with it again, but to make sure that every time I heard someone 
talk about it I would make absolutely sure that they knew how low my 
opinions of the software and the company actually are. The single 
year-long project I was on working with AC was a complete nightmare 
filled with hours of talking to the least helpful and least professional

Of course, that's just my opinion...

why not call your images with the src="image.cfm?imgID=47" and then 
choose which image to get from which directory in image.cfm when you

Re: MySQL 4/5

2006-07-17 Thread Ken Ferguson
I can see where this is frustrating for people, but MySQL 5 has only 
been an official production release for a matter of months (about 6 or 
7, right?) So, it's kind of hard to be down on Adobe for not having them 
in there. Anyhow, it's not difficult to drop in the ConnectorJ drivers 
and roll right along.

Rick, go download the VM Player and then download a bunch of the free 
appliances. Then you'll really start to get a good picture of what it's 
all about.

Re: CFExecute and GnuPG

2006-07-14 Thread Ken Ferguson
Did you then try it again with the variable attribute and dump that?? 
Also, when using --armor or -a you'll usually want to end up with 
something likened to cosmeo.20060714113630.dat.asc. Not sure that it 
REALLY matters, but at least the user on the other end will know for 
certain that it's ascii. Let me know how the variable/dump works.

Re: Microsoft Virtual PC / Should I be interested, or not?

2006-07-14 Thread Ken Ferguson
The other thing, I'm guessing, is that since VMware Server can run on 
Linux, you can get a super-duper, stripped-down, double 
throwdown-lightning-fast  distro on which to run it. That's got to be 
better resource-utilization-wise than running MS VirtualPC on a Windows 
host OS.

Re: 550 relay not permitted

2006-07-13 Thread Ken Ferguson
"550 relay not permitted"

I think it explains the error fairly well, in fact. Relay is not 
permitted. Either smtp relay has been disabled completely or has been 
changed to require smtp auth or the auth you're using is no longer valid 
on the mail server due to a removed user acct or a changed password... 
It could be any number of exact issues really, but the bottom line is 
that the smtp server through which you are attempting to relay your 
messages is not allowing you to relay mail through it.

Brad, what's the situation with the server, is it a shared server 
somewhere; is it a server at your home; is it on the network at your 
office...?

Re: CF Forum

2006-07-12 Thread Ken Ferguson
Well, I'm guessing you could set up CFMBB or Galleon in no time at all 
and write an extension to support posting by email in a day or two. That 
keeps you well within your 7 day window and fits the budget quite nicely 
to boot. If you don't have time to do it yourself, I'm sure someone on 
this list (like me for example) would be perfectly willing to write it 
for you and still save you a truckload of money over paying for 
something like FuseTalk, the Standard Edition of which is an outrageous $3K.

Re: GPG and cfexecute, or...

2006-07-12 Thread Ken Ferguson
Even if nobody else out there got it, you're speakin' my language James

Also, like I said, I'm not actually using the cfexecute in production, 
but a CFC which calls a java wrapper of gpg instead. It works really 
well, but as an exercise in learning I'm going to rebuild it myself and 
bundling it up into something I can share out on CFLIB. I thought it was 
odd that nobody had put anything up there already for this. When I first 
started this project I figured there'd be a whole handful of useful 
nuggets out there, but apart from Wayne's CFDJ article from way back, I 
hardly found anything out there.

Re: GPG and cfexecute, or...

2006-07-11 Thread Ken Ferguson
And Robert's your father's brother... I had changed the timeout to 5 on 
the encryption and concluded that wasn't the issue when it didn't help. 
I just changed it to 7 and it works fine. If I wasn't such a 
knucklehead, I'd have changed this on the --fingerprints code and 2 
would have worked fine... I still find it strange that a timeout of 1 
doesn't work for --fingerprints when it only takes a couple of 
milliseconds to run.

Thanks a lot Tom. Maybe I'll need that again later. I guess, if I ever 
go back to using cfexecute for this, I'll set the timeout to something 
even longer in case I've a need to encrypt something really large...

That's an interesting thought - so I set up a scheduled task to run a 
batch file to write the fingerprints output to a file and let the task 
run when there was no activity. It ran fine while I was away making 
coffee and the output file was there with the info in it when I got back 
with a full cup and a pop tart.

Yes, as the cf user everything works perfectly from the command line. I 
got around my original problem using Wayne Graham's java wrapper when 
Wayne looked at the code and figured out that the problems were due to 
the location of the keyring in the newer versions. Creating the 
environment variable GNUPGHOME and pointing that to the keyring 
directory solved everything. I still can't get the cfexecute bit to work 
though, but using the CFC is better anyway.

Certainly, doing it well is of the utmost importance and I'm glad to see 
someone putting that as priority number one. There are far too many

GPG and cfexecute, or...

2006-07-10 Thread Ken Ferguson
I'm trying to encrypt a download file with gpg and I'm having some 
problems. First off, I'm just running the following code as a test of 
returning anything from the exe:



Every time I get the error that "Variable fp is undefined". I copied the 
netsat executable into the same directory and I can run/dump it just 
fine from there, but the gpg just doesn't seem to have any success 
running. Is anyone else using gpg who may be able to help me out a 
little -- maybe there's a better alternative to using cfexecute even?? 
I've got Wayne Graham's java wrapper and cfc from a year or two ago, but 
as he warned it's not really working very well with the latest versions 
of gpg. It always just returns "no valid OpenPGP data found."

Anyway, TIA

To follow up on my own post here, (it sounded worse than I meant it 
after I read it again) I'm not suggesting this is the case with 
CitySoft, just that this is usually the impression I have when I run 
across a product I can't demo or in some way "see" before having to 
speak with someone. I'm sure I'm not alone in that and I'd imagine it 
doesn't do a lot for sales. From my experience, software sales are 
driven in large part by developers and users demoing or otherwise 
checking out some software and then showing it to someone higher up who 
would be the individual with whom a salesperson would need to speak at 
some point anyway.

see what they have to offer is not very confident in their product's 
ability to sell itself. They know they need to put on the pressure if

Re: Debugging per request

But given the advice I've submitted, you could turn on debugging when 
you needed to, change the app.cfm file in question and do your work. 
Then you could just turn it back off again.

2006-07-05 Thread Ken Ferguson
You could add this code to every application.cfm file on the machine.






and then on the applicaiton in question, you could go in and change the 
cfset line to = true based on a login or a url variable or whatever you 
like. It should be a simple matter to add that little snippet of code to 
the Application.cfm files - even if there are dozens of them.

Re: lay person question

LOL, I have no idea! I parked next to a car in the lot this morning that 
had a paint job meant to look like carbon fiber (can you say cheesy) so 
that came easily to mind!

Re: OT ASP's query param

2006-06-28 Thread Ken Ferguson
Well, I didn't find anything on "parameterization", but I did find a 
WHOLE LOT of information on preventing SQL injection in ASP. So my guess 
is that you've got to manually go about protecting yourself if you're 
going to use ASP.

Re: lay person question

2006-06-28 Thread Ken Ferguson
Flex is going to replace CF in the same way that carbon-fiber car bodies 
are going to replace engines. Both have to do with cars, but the 
statement doesn't make any sense, right? CF is a server-side scripting 
language and Flex is a new toy for building front ends / GUI's. In order 
to use Flex, you're still going to need to use ASP, PHP, CF, Java... to 
do the work on the server when the user interacts with the Flex 
front-end. You've got to have an engine to move that sweet carbon-fiber 
body down the road.

Re: Major cities around the world

2006-06-27 Thread Ken Ferguson
There are 191 UN member countries and the US State Department formally 
recognizes 192 countries. Of course, some people will add in a couple of 
extras like  Taiwan and E. Timor and Palestine, claiming that these are 
sovereign nations. So when you get right down to it, you've got a 
maximum of about 194 possibilities and a minimum of 188 depending upon 
whom you ask.

Re: appending two queries

2006-06-22 Thread Ken Ferguson
DTS. You need to save the file and run a DTS package to load the data. 
That's the best way to do it in SQL Server.
