I'd say you're pretty accurate in your guess. I don't have it and don't want it either. For me it's as much a matter of principle as anything. I got where I am today by figuring it out on my own (as I think most CFers have) and to me that's worth WAY more than somebody who sat in a classroom and had it fed to them. I had an interview last week and left feeling like a complete idiot because I didn't have the vocabulary they were apparently looking for.

Ajax Problem: Callback isn't happening.
I'm hoping somebody has seen this problem before... I'm using cfajaxproxy to proxy to my CFC... that works fine. My local javascript creates the instance of the proxy, then sets the callback hander, and then calls the CFC in the function. This all works great, and up until sometime last night, was working great too. Now this morning, the CFC gets called just fine, does its thing just fine, and I can see in Firebug that the result is coming back just fine too. But for whatever reason, my callback function is NOT being called. So in the example below, the "whateverSuccess" function never gets called. I stuck an alert in it to see, and it never appears. I moved the alert to the bottom of the example function below, and it showed up fine. And like I said, I can see in Firebug that the call takes place, and returns a proper result. function do_whatever(value) { var instance = new whatever_proxy(); instance.setCallbackHandler(whateverSuccess); instance.cfcFunction(value); } So I'm confused... I've visually looked over my block of JS code to see if anything in it could be causing a problem and Id on't see anything. Aptana's JS validator isn't reporting any problems either. Any ideas?

BIG problems with 8.0.1 update
Me again. :) I've had to uninstall CF on three machines and reinstall to get back to the pre-8.0.1 version (with just the pre-existing hotfixes installed). This new update broke a LOT of stuff, and I'm wondering if anybody else has noticed yet. First, there was the YUI-related issue that I posted about yesterday. That was pretty minor. Next, I was working on a script that I've been dinking with for about a month, that goes through a big directory of image files and checks their pixel size and filesize, and alters them accordingly to save space. The first problem I noticed after doing the update was that if there were more than about 70 files in the directory, JRUN would exit with a strange error (I don't recall the specific one). It had worked just fine prior to this (there are some 20,000 files in the directory I'm testing on). So I made a directory with fifty files and continued fine-tuning things. This is when I noticed the next problem. Half of the files (roughly) were coming up "not found" by the CFImage tag, despite definitely existing. I experimented... was it the ones with spaces in their names? Nope. Was it the ones that were uppercase? Nope. Lowercase? Nope. I could find no rhyme or reason as to why this was happening. It also happened on another site that I run (on another server, which also had the update) -- a message forum that I wrote. People who were uploading photos to their profiles were suddenly unable to do so. I saw lots of errors thrown due to "file not found" when the file clearly was there. Finally I figured the best move was to roll back to pre-8.0.1. So I uninstalled/reinstalled since Adobe didn't give us an Uninstall option. Since that time, everything has gone back to normal and is working just fine. Oh, I did go through the release notes very carefully to see if there was anything mentioned that might tell why these problems started, but there was nothing. So as of right now I'm advising everybody I know to NOT apply the 8.0.1 update.

Re: CF 8.01 Updated, now: YAHOO.lang.augmentProto is not a function
Okay, I may have a workaround for this... I downloaded the latest YUI and replaced the cfide/scripts/ajax/yui/calendar folder with the one from yui/build/calendar. This seems to have fixed things, at least for now. I have no idea what else it may have messed up, but for the moment, I'm happy.

Passing BIND values in CFGRID
I have a cfc that I wrote, with two methods. The first method creates a CFGRID, and the second method is called by the BIND attirbute in the CFGRID to retrieve its data. What I'm trying to do, basically, is pass a tablename and have a generic CGRID appear that displays all of the columns in the table. If the method I call from within the cfgrid's bind attribute is specific to the table, it works fine. But when I try to pass a tablename and call a more generic method, it isn't working. Here's the code: When I call the table-specific method, I don't pass {tablename} and things work fine. But then I added {tablename}, and in the getData method, the value is coming through as NULL. I tried changing it to {#tablename#} and it still comes through as NULL, but the variable becomes the name of the table instead of just "tablename" So... what am I doing wrong? How do I take a regular variable, "tablename" in this case, and pass it through the BIND expression into the cfc? Is it possible? Thanks!

In fact, get this... this is happening in two different CFCs. In one, I pass in a userid value (checking for private messages -- this is a forum package I wrote). Since I couldn't get it working, I cheated and just accessed cookie.userid. That got that one at least usable, if not ideally. Now on this next one, I'm passing in threadid, but I have no other way to get it in. I tried setting request.threadid just before the call, but that didn't seem to work. So anwyay, back to Firebug. Here's what I see under the Console tab, Params sub-tab: argumentCollection {"threadid":44841} Likewise, in the previous one that handles PMs, I look in there and I see the proper userid too. But for whatever reason, the CFC is completely blind to it.

CFAJAX: Can't pass parameter.
Okay, I'm stuck. I fixed my previous problem (JSON-related), and now that I've moved onto writing some of my own code, I've hit a snag where I cannot seem to get a value passed via AJAX. Basically, I'm trying to pass a number into my ajax CFC to be acted on. I've looked at browser source code to verify that the value is in the JS function that gets clicked on... I've added an Alert to the JS function just prior to calling the ajax instance and it's good there too. I've used CFLOG just inside the CFC to see what arguments.the_value is, and it's always zero. I have the cfargument set to receive type=numeric and required=true. I've been using the tutorial at LearnCF.com as my guide, since their tutorial runs perfectly, including the part that passes the string that gets reversed. So I'm stumped. I even used Firebug and saw that the parameter was in fact passed. But the CFC seems to be losing it somehow. Any ideas? Thanks!

Re: CFAjax Problem (parseJSON)
I did some more investigating and got it to work... though I don't understand why. Basically, I had to comment out all JavaScript on the site... not that there was much. I had this: if (self.parent.frames.length != 0) self.parent.location="#baseurl#"; in my Application.cfm file. It kept puking until I removed it, then it started working again. I also tried turning back on an earlier experiment where I had written my own little test cfc and modified proxy.cfm's javascript to work with my own test. I was setting up that cfajaxproxy in my Application.cfm too. With it in place, the proxy.cfm wouldn't work. So my two newest questions are this: 1. What is it about the script, above, that is breaking the ajax stuff? 2. Why does it seem that two ajax proxies cannot coexist? Is this normal or is something else wrong?

I thought about venting about it on the Farcry list, but figured I would be booted in no time for not being a member of the choir. Not wanting to burn bridges, I chose not to. As for venting here without being asked, I thought this was a list that encouraged all kinds of discussion about CF and related applications. I'm not openly bashing FarCry. I do dislike it for many reasons, but I will refrain from making slanderous remarks about it. I will make two comments about it here and leave it at that for now... 1. It's VERY slow. Even on very fast hardware, it's extremely slow. 2. If it had even half the documentation that Commonspot had, I would probably still be using it. The new developer guide that was put out fell very short of being useful, and the Wiki is hard to find help in as well. In addition, even posting to the -Dev list was fairly futile. I finally abandoned FarCry for Joomla. Granted it's php-based, but it's extremely fast and so far seems much easier to work with. The back-end alone is worth its weight in gold. It's lightyears ahead of FarCry. Oh wait, that makes it three things, sorry. :) Rob ~| 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:297798 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Okay, if I did it right, here's what I see... On my local system (which works), the Response tab simply contains the Server Time that is sent back. On my live server (Windows) that isn't working right and returning that weird error message, I get this: === _cf_loadingtexthtml="<div align='center'><img src='/CFIDE/scripts/ajax /resources/cf/images/loading.gif'/>"; _cf_contextpath=""; _cf_ajaxscriptsrc="/CFIDE/scripts/ajax"; _cf_jsonprefix='//'; _cf_clientid='470E9572A0679FB1D701E5C9930C7ACB'; ColdFusion.Ajax.importTag('CFAJAXPROXY'); var _cf_pm=ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.init('/ajax/pm.cfc','pm_proxy'); _cf_pm.prototype.pmCount=function(userid) { return ColdFusion.AjaxProxy.invoke(this, "pmCount", {userid :userid});}; if (self.parent.frames.length != 0) self.parent.location="<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.sierrasledders.com"">http://www.sierrasledders.com"</a>;; function pmCount(userid) { var userid = userid; var instance = new pm_proxy(); instance.setCallbackHandler(pmCountSuccess); instance.pmCount(userid); } function pmCountSuccess(result) { document.getElementById('pm_count').innerHTML = result; } "30 Jan 2008 - 07:45:47" === Which is interesting because it does seem to be returing the server time, but all that mess ahead of it too.

CFAjax Problem (parseJSON)
I was over at learncf.com and am trying to run their CFAjax tutorial on one of my servers. When I click on either of the buttons, such as Server Time, I get this error: Error: [Exception... "'SyntaxError: parseJSON' when calling method: [nsIOnReadyStateChangeHandler::handleEvent]" nsresult: "0x8057001c (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_JS_OBJECT)" location: "" data: no] Googling hasn't gotten me anything useful, unfortunately. The box in question is Windows Server 2003 fully updated, CF8, MSSQL2005. At home, I have two development systems, one Windows and one Linux. On the Linux system (Fedora Core 7), it runs perfectly. On the Windows system (Vista), it would probably run if I could figure out how to overcome the "ColdFusion not defined" error, which I overcame on the Linux box by symlinking the CFIDE directory to the dir where proxy.cfm and proxy.cfc were located. The CF server already has a mapping for CFIDE, and I can't figure out how to specify a new one in Apache, though my attempts so far have only managed to break the CF Administrator. :) So there's something weird on my "live" Windows box, but I sure can't figure out what. Any ideas? Thanks!

Here's why I call it buggy... first, it lets you do things you shouldn't be able to do -- e.g. delete the entire site tree in the Admin area. If you do this, then attempt to view the site, it throws an error. There are a lot of places where errors get thrown after the user does something they shouldn't do. All of this should be trapped, and a lot of the stuff it's letting you do shouldn't be allowed. >> Indeed it is, and there is a learning curve, but it is very powerful, thus > with power comes a learning curve. I think the learning curve is very steep, and it's made worse by a lack of real documentation. Granted the thing IS free, and I'll admit it's pretty powerful. But at this point, the shortcomings are outweighing it's strengths.

CF-based CMS?
Hi... I'm wondering if somebody has a list of ColdFusion-based content management systems. I need one (free preferably) for a client that needs a CMS-based website. I've been using Farcry for a few months, and frankly, I'm fed up with it. I would rather write my own from scratch than continue to use that piece of festering crap. There is little to no documentation available, it is incredibly poorly written and buggy, it is SLOW, and it is confusing even for a 10+ year CF veteran such as myself. My client is mystified by it and has refused to use it. So.. are there any others out there? I would hate to switch them to php or something else... Thanks!

CFDocument: 3x2 document but only uses 3/4 of it
That was difficult making a semi-legible subject line! Okay, so I'm using CFDocument to create a PDF document that will basically be a series of labels being sent to a label printer. Due to CFDocument's limitation of 2x2 (inches), we're using labels measuring 3x2 inches. The problem I'm running into is the label I'm creating with HTML, no matter what I do, never takes up more than about 2.5" of the width and 1.65" (approx) of the height. I've tried specifying the table width in percent (100%) and also pixels. I've found that it works up to about 600 pixels, but after that, it simply goes no farther. Vertically, if I go too far, it pushes the bottom off to the next page, yet still leaves a big blank space at the bottom. This is my CFDocument code: #the_table# The variable #the_table# is created using cfsavecontent. Has anybody had this problem before? Thanks!

CF and Zebra 2844 Label Printers
I have a client who has an app that needs to print to one of these little printers. They're most commonly used for printing the big 4x6 UPS labels, but in this case, they're using a 1x3 label. I'm able to print to it thanks to the drivers (on Windows only, of course), but the problem I'm running into is being able to control page breaks and stuff. I wanted to use CFDocument, but it won't let me make a document small enough -- it wants a minimum height of 2 inches. So now I'm working on the CF Report Builder. It let me create a 1x3 template, but it complains when I try to use it, saying the data doesn't fit on the label. I'm a newbie to this report builder app so I'm unsure if there's a way to shrink things down to fit. If anybody wants to see the cfr file, you can get it here: http://www.atvowners.com/rob/label.cfr Anybody know of a way to do this? Thanks!

Strange CF Problem on Fedora Linux
I know that ColdFusion isn't supported on Fedora Linux, but with help from some of the various blogs, I was able to get it installed and working on FC6. I've been using it as a development environment for the past couple of months, and it's worked very nicely. This is CFMX7.02 I'm talking about, and it's running on Apache 2.2.3. As of the last week or so, a very odd problem has surfaced. Most of the time (but not all the time) when a page I'm working on throws an error, the end result is a completely blank screen in the browser. No debug output, no error text, NOTHING. I haven't yet come up with any pattern, but it does do it on all of the "sites" that I'm developing on this particular machine. I have Apache setup to allow multihoming and point everything at 127.0.0.1 via my hosts file, e.g. "www.site1.com" and so on. Has anybody seen anything like this?

Bad DSN causing CF to crash
I ran into this problem yesterday and wanted to post about it to see if anybody has ever experienced it. Client running CFMX7.02 on Windows Server 2003 SP1 with all updates. Connecting to MSSQL2000 database on separate shared db server. App is nothing particularly fancy, CF5-compliant with a couple of MX-specific uses of CFFORM and a couple of CFCs. For the last week or so, we've been getting progressively increasing numbers of errors saying "connection reset" when trying to make db calls. I posted about it here and got one response indicating a problem with drivers back on MX6.1. We decided to relocate the db to MSSQL2005 on the webserver and off of the shared environment, because the ISP was unwilling to try to fix the problem since it wasn't consistent. Yesterday, prior to moving the db (it was tentatively scheduled for last night), the db stopped responding. Or rather, what appeared to be the case was CF up and died. It would time and end conclude with a JRun Closed Connection error. Thinking that CF was hosed, I uninstalled it, rebooted, and reinstalled CF. We ended up doing this twice. Nothing worked. Get it back up, recreate the DSN to the shared server, and CF was dead again within a minute or two. Finally, I had an idea... I restarted the CF service and killed the DSN. I recreated it pointing to a copy of the database running on an entirely different server on my own personal network. Now the site ran just fine. So I started suspecting the shared db server. To test my theory, I copied the site's code to our development server at another ISP (this time a Linux box), and pointed it to the shared db server. CF immediately went down. Once more... I did the same thing on my home development machine. CF once again died. So I contacted the ISP and rather than try to explain this to them, I just asked that a backup copy of the db be put on the webserver, which they managed to do within an hour (wow!). I imported it into the local MSSQL2005 and setup the DSN... bingo! Everything was running again. What's odd is that you can talk to the shared db server using MS SQL Management Studio, with RDS, or even with SQL Explorer under Eclipse just fine. But try to get the CF application server to talk to it means certain death. I can't explain it, but everybody is relieved that things are good again. And we're avoiding that shared db server like the plague. Rob ~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 The most significant release in over 10 years.

Unzip the distribution, then the first plugin you should drop in is the new RDS... then go add CFEclipse 1.3. Or you might try it the other way around (CFEclipse then RDS). I've found sometimse the order in which you install plug-ins makes a difference. Also... do NOT install the Eclipse 3.2.1 patches found when "Searching for updates to installed features" because it will make CFEclipse disappear. I just had to roll back to a previous Eclipse 3.2.1 install because of that. Fortunately I always backup my Eclipse dir before adding new plug-ins just in case.

Re: RDS not working in Eclipse was: Re: CFEclipse / Eclipse question
I was unaware that you could get RDS to work on Eclipse 3.2 except on OSX (as Ray mentioned in his Blog). I just tried it again tonight, using the RDS plug-in that came with CF-Extras and the file version (what I want) didn't work... once you try to load a file, it just goes "an error has occurred" and nothing loads. Is the version in Flex2 even more current? I'd LOVE to have fully functional RDS in Eclipse 3.2...

Newbie CFC Question (Application.cfc)
I'm just now getting into CFCs (a bit late, but better than never)... I just wrote my first one, a UPS Shipping/Cancellation one to add to Ray Camden's UPS CFC package. Anyway, now that I've done that, I want to migrate my Application.cfm to an Application.cfc. I've read up on everything I can find, and I'm still foggy on one thing. Basically, I param a lot of variables in my Application.cfm... or cfset, depending on the need. That's in addition to some queries that'll go nicely into functions in the CFC. But what I don't understand how to do is how to continue to param/cfset my variables. In the App.cfc, I tried putting that and the other statements in below the CFCOMPONENT tag and it's not working. I moved them into the onApplicationStart function and that didn't do it either. Where the heck do you put this code so it works like it did in my App.cfm file? Thanks!

Tired of lousy companies & recruiters
After this thread over on CF-Jobs about that posting from "accessiblecomputing.com" and the guy who posted the job being a prick to one of the list members who took issue with his posting, I'm once again wanting to setup some sort of website where consultants, employees or whomever can post about bad experiences with companies and recruiters. It's time that we had a way for these companies to get bad press and therefore have a hard time finding people until they change their ways. Granted there are always two sides to every story, but the important side to us, of course, is OUR side. My intention isn't to slander companies or recruiters, but to simply post facts about the position and the management there. Here's an example: "It turns out I was hired not to be a developer, but rather to BE the guy who hired me. His anal-retentive nature required me to write code EXACTLY the same way that he would -- right down to the same white spacing, line breaks, and even coding methodology (and I don't mean Fusebox)." Anybody think it's a worthwhile venture? I wouldn't expect to make any money at it, but I do have the server and means to have such a site up and running inside of a day...
