SOLR config in CF10
The Adobe docs say that in order to configure SOLR (as in upping the memory available to it) in CF10 one needs to edit the solr.lax file. Problem is, I don't have a solr.lax file anywhere on the server. Does anyone know the name/location of the actual file to do configurations?

Hotfix 16, CF10
Just applied hotfix 16 to CF10, now the application service won't start. The event log reveals this info Can't start ColdFusion Application Service. The description for Event ID 259 from source ColdFusion 10 Application Server cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer. Any insight on this? Thanks in advance for any help.

CFthread
Let's say I declare a series of CFthreads on a single page. These will process serially, not concurrently, right? What if one fails?

I've searched and found a dozen ways to run a command line application via ColdFusion, none of which seem to work. Can anyone show me the right way?

High school algebra problem
Not exactly a CF question per se, sorry... but... I'm trying to write a formula in CF and my algebra skills are rusty. I'm working with a real estate MLS system that divides their online photos, sequentially, into 256 different directories - numbered 1 through 256. When they get up to directory 256, they start back again at 1. When I asked for a reference table, they explained we don't have one, it just happens automatically. Trouble is, I need to automatically find the photos armed only with the property number. For example (actual data): property #794622 is placed in directory 254. property #794623 is placed in directory 255. property #794624 is placed in directory 256. property #794625 is placed in directory 1. property #794626 is placed in directory 2. property #794627 is placed in directory 3. ...and on and on sequentially... What formula can I use that will allow me to take any property number (say 45 or 1023465 or 332495845745, etc, etc...) and find its corresponding directory number? Thanks in advance for indulging me on this one...

Joni Mitchell and Cold Fusion
Help me, I think I'm falling... here's an odd request for a certain individual. Joni's official site is hosted on a GoDaddy server (don't ask) running CF8. They keep shutting it down for overloading the server - asking me to streamline the code to avoid continued violations. I'm sure my code sucks, but it's been on other servers without issue from those hosts. Would anyone out there, perhaps a Joni fan, volunteer to take a look at some code, shake their head in disgust at the awfulness of it, and help me rewrite inefficient sections? This feels a bit like walking naked through a crowd, but hey In return, I'll put a link to whatever site you want in the footer of every page, and of course you'll have the satisfaction of helping out all the Joni fans across the globe.

Ajax, Json, and two clueless programmers
I'm doing a project with another guy. He knows ajax and json and is
clueless about Cold Fusion. I claim to know CF and probably don't
even know what ajax and json stand for. We, needless to say, are
having problems communicating.
So here's the problem. I hit the database and give him some data that
plots a couple properties on a google map. When any of those mapped
properties are clicked, his code (json?) uses this (example) bit of
database info to display info about the property on the same page
without a refresh:
houseDetails = {address : 1970 ST CHESTER AURORA, 80010, price :

Clicking another property on the map grabs the above info on the
clicked property and again - without refresh - displays it, replacing
the old info.
The returned info (price, for example) displays great with ID numbers
in a table as such: td id=price/td or like this p
id=price/p... but how the heck do I use it in a URL and (most
importantly) pass other variables with it, for example: a
href=?from=doitprice=PRICEVARIABLEHERE and have that link info
change without refresh right along with the rest of the page?
We both thank you in advance and owe you a beer. Or two.

listgetat problem...
Hi all -
I'm trying to (unsuccessfully) import a comma delimited text file
(from an MLS service) into a MySQL db and looping over the file using
listgetat in this manner:
...
'#listgetAt('#index#',4, ',')#',
'#listgetAt('#index#',5, ',')#',
'#listgetAt('#index#',6, ',')#'
...
I'm suspecting that the format of the text file is breaking my code.
Here's a sample of the text file.
RES,A,AUN,776082,877,,ST,RACINE,HOFFMAN
TOWN,80011,3,2,RES,1051,,,KELLER WILLIAMS REALTY
LLC,CHARMING RANCH STYLE HOME, 3 BEDROOMS, 2 FULL BATHS, CONCRETE
EXTENDED DRIVEWAY (ISSUES), NO FHA !!,5AURO,1681,
Note that text items have quotes around them and number items don't.
Also, text items can and do include commas within. Am I improperly
using the listgetat function? If so, how can I rewrite it to get
around these issues?
Many thanks in advance,
Les

Parsing a geocode response
I'm rather lousy at the whole string parsing thing... how would I separate this example response from the google geocoder api into two values? Problem (for me) is that one cannot count on a set number of digits returned after the decimal. (38.780144, -104.815308) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

CF Adnin question, or The GoDaddy Hosting Blues
GoDaddy recently installed CF8 on some of their servers, and a few things have changed. Now, validity checks are not working on cfform tags on their aliased domains. If the URL is http://AliasedDomain.com/PageWithTagOnIt.cfm, all validity checks fail. If the URL (to the identical file) is http://TopDomain.com/AliasedDomain/PageWithTagOnIt.cfm, all validity checks work. This error never occurred on GoDaddy's previous CF installations. So, isn't this a path setting they have misconfigured in the CF Admin on their new installations? Tech support tells me that I need to correctly reference my scripts. I tell them, no, THEY need to correctly reference their scripts. I'm not referencing scripts, I'm using tags. Their CF installation is doing the referencing. Does anyone know of the solution to this? What needs to be changed in their CFAdmin configurations (I know little about the administrator)? Or am I the idiot here?

Form field auto-fill, auto-eliminate from query
Can CF do this? I have a database of, say, 1000 song titles. I want a user to be able to input one of those song titles into a form. A select box with 1000 options is pretty unwieldy. Can CF eliminate irrelevant songs as the user types? For example: User types B, only those titles starting with B now show in the dropdown. User types o, only those titles starting with Bo now show in the dropdown. User types t, only those titles starting with Bot now show in the dropdown. etc, etc, etc...

Re: Querying a delimited text field
OK, have at it! I'll be confirming my novice status by revealing this code, but at least you won't be able to see me blush. I am first listing info on a database of photos by theme, then allowing the user to pick the specific photographer he/she wants to see. This is the tough page for me: http://redwood.jmdl.com/themes.cfm http://redwood.jmdl.com/themes_code.cfm (code) The combination of a loop over the initial query and the delimited field (example, Henry Gilpin's same photo appears under Iconic and Landscape) are what is kicking my butt. It works the way I have it now, but it's ugly, ugly, ugly and certainly wastes unnecessary resources. Thanks to anyone who can school me.

Then that table would have one record representing each relationship, so for your photos that belonged to two different themes, there would be two records, each one with the same photoid, but a different themeid. Then you would remove the theme_id column altogether from your photos table. Then you can use the code Jim Wright wrote for you (again, no pun intended!) :) Hope this helps.

Re: cfupdate/cfinsert tags - changed from CF5 to CF7?
Not sure I've nailed it down completely, but CF7 is strict on the conventions for naming fields in a db table (at least in an Access db. I know, I know...). The error was coming not from a textarea field as originally thought, but from fields named as what CF7 may interpret as reserved words. Fields named text and date and time and top were throwing the errors. I renamed those, it works fine now.

I'm porting an application from CF5 to CF7. The exact same code is now throwing syntax errors when trying to pass textarea info from a form to the cfupdate and cfinsert tags.

I've recently upgraded to Windows 2000 and am having a hard time finding a web server to run Cold Fusion. Microsoft's IIS won't install over Win2000. Any suggestions on a web server that will work? Am I destined to configure Apache for the job?
