Knowledge Base Software
Looking for recommendations for Knowledge Base software. Would prefer ColdFusion based and open source if possible. Any ideas? ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:315142 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Load Testing
I'm interested in hearing what others are doing for load testing and what software they use.

Binding trouble with OS-X
I am experiencing something strange with binding. I confirmed it with the following code: cfajaxproxy bind=cfc:test.CFAJAXProxy.CFC.ProxyTest.sayHello([EMAIL PROTECTED]) onError=handleError onSuccess=handleResult / I'm running everything as stand alone in Leopard and launch CF from the command line so when I receive the 'Not Found' error, the path CF was searching is displayed in the console. The problem is that CF is not looking in the specified path, rather it is only looking in the document root. If I remove the CFC from the directory specified in the ajaxproxy tag, CF throws an error when I launch the page saying it is unable to find the CFC. So it is seeing the bind path at least on launch, but disregards it afterward. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Which approach to take?
I guess I'm probably the rebel here, but I just completed some modifications to our company's forum post interface that contains both text input and file attachments. The user enters the title in one input box and if the user wants to attach a file, clicks an 'attach file' link below the text area. When the link is clicked, a javascript function is called and places a file input box on the screen below the link. If clicked again, and input exists in the first file input, another file input box appears below the first. This allows the user to attach as many files as necessary. Once the post button is clicked, the title and post is validated and stored followed by the attachments. I use the ColdFusion UUID as the ID for the post so I already know the ID before the message is saved. I hope this helps, Mike Harman Hi, all... I'm designing part of an app that will allow users to input info and photos for newly constructed communities. (Real Estate site) I'm going to allow the users to input unlimited photos for each community. There will be one table holding the textual info about each property and another table in the db holding the photos. Therefore, the photos will need to be linked via foreign key in the db to the property table. That said, I'm wondering what approach to take for the input of photos. First Approach: 1) Users input textual information and submit 2) Users then click on link to upload photos which will provide the community_id to connect the photos to the property identified in the URL variable. Second Approach: 1) Users input all data on the same page...textual and photos. 2) For processing, textual data is input first 3) New id for the property is retrieved 4) Photos are uploaded, processed, and put into the db connected to the property via the community_id created in the insert query for the textual info. The first approach is more trouble for the user, but easier. The second approach is preferable if I can consistently retrieve that last id inserted without any problem. I know this is discussed and debated from time-to-time, but I thought I'd ask again, now that I'm on CF 8 and MySQL 5.0. Thoughts, anyone?

Re: Which approach to take?
It's an idea I have borrowed from Ray Camden. I use the ColdFusion UUID as the ID for the post so I already know the ID before the message is saved. I guess using the UUID would make that approach work well. I'll have to check into that.

Re: DB choice for small Intranet site
The last small project I developed was a sales application that met the limits you mentioned (4Gb and 10 connections) . I compared MySQL (which I am a big fan of), and MS SQL Express. My customer was on a very tight budget and a commercial license (because the software is private and not released under GPL see: http://www.mysql.com/about/legal/licensing/commercial-license.html) for MySQL would add another $500 to the project. So I opted for MS SQL Express which is free. Mike Harman Which DB would you choose (MSSQL Express / Apache Derby) for a small (4gb, with only 10 simultaneous connections) intranet CF App? I only used MS-SQL before, and I found the management studio very easy to work with. The only concern I have is the limitation of the Express version might get me one day. Then I found out CF8 comes with Apache Derby, and I wonder if that's a good choice. Actually, when is Derby a good choice?? Since there's no management studio like MSSQL for Derby (or MYSQL), anyone tried RDS support in CFEclipse? Can I use that to create/manage/backup the DB? Is it reliable? Thank you!

Re: CFDiv not binding properly?
Is the pop-up window a cfwindow or a new browser window? Okay, this one is not making any sense at all to me - it *has* to be a setting issue but I can't seem to find anything to help. I have a CFDiv tag - cfdiv id=File bind=url:showfiles.cfm?user=#userid# / Inside the CFDiv I have a pop-up window that allows the user to edit or add files. This works just fine and includes the following line of code at the end of the upload page: script type=javascript window.opener.ColdFusion.navigate('showfiles.cfm?user=#form.userid#, 'File'); window.close(); /script In my development area, a win 2003 box with CF8 dev. everything works fine. When I upload to staging, the initial page loads fine but when the ColdFusion.Navigate calls and the window closes all I get is that nice Loading animation. I've enabled the AJAX debugging and the GET is being sent but it does not report any data being returned. Anyone have any ideas on this? Thanks!

cfdocument scope variables
Has anyone encountered issues when using cfdocument scoped variables (totalpagecount, totalsectionpagecount, currentpagenumber, currentsectionpagenumber) in CF 8? When trying to use them in a 'Page: #cfdocument.currentpagenumber# of #cfdocument.totalpagecount#' scenario while generating a flashpaper document they don't seem to exist. ~| 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:296380 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
