cf query monitoring

2013-02-06 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hi to all. I am looking for a way to monitor how many times non-cached
queries hit the database, including the name of the query and performance
times.  Anyone have a suggestion?  I looked at fusion reactor but it is
expensive when you have multiple servers.

Looking for affordable Colocation

Hello,

I am looking for 2 to 4 rack-spaces of affordable co-location on the east
coast, with decent quality transit.

Any suggestions?

Fwd: New Security Issue with CF

2013-01-03 Thread Robert Rhodes

I looked into this a bit more this morning, and have realized that I may
have gotten very lucky.

In going through the logs again, I see that there were no POSTs to h.cfm.
 So the hacker never logged into h.cfm.  And I see no GETs with a
fuseaction, as described in Charlie's post.

I ran the hacker's script again to confirm that logging in shows a POST in
my logs.  I also tried a some of the non destructive actions he could take,
and found that those caused either a POST or GET+fuseaction.

I think I dodged a bullet here.

Thanks.  I saw that afterwards.  I was freaking out a bit there. Still am.
:(

I have gone through the logs on that server (windows 2008 R2 server running
 IIS7.5 and CF9.02) and the hacker loaded his script 1 time each on 15
different sites.

They all look like this:
2013-01-02 00:15:15 192.168.55.129 GET /CFIDE/h.cfm - 80 - 178.170.124.210
python-requests/0.14.2+CPython/2.7.3+Linux/3.2.0-32-generic 200 0 0 171

But on 3 of the sites, he also loaded: help,cfm,
administrator.cfc, mappings.cfm, scheduleedit.cfm, and  scheduletasks.cfm
 but there are no scheduled tasks showing in the administrator.

I checked the CF Administrator log and found nothing.

Fortunately, he missed the one site (none of his crap shows up in its logs)
where there was sensitive information, so assuming he could not traverse
directories, I am hoping I am ok there.

I ran his file (after renaming it), and none of my datasources showed up
(it was an empty ). I am hoping I am good there too. It looks like
his script it needs to be driven by a human (a lot of it is a form).  So I
am hoping that the one hit I see on most of those sites is an automated hit
to see if the script is there, then he was going to come around later and
do his damage -- and he never did.  Wishful thinking right?

I don't see any other signs of trouble anywhere, but am very worried that
something bad has happened that I have just not stumbled on yet.

Any suggestions or advice?  Any place else I should be looking? Am I
fooling my self to think I got lucky here?

I have shut down CF on that server and am now searching all other servers
for h.cfm.  So far nothing.

Tomorrow, I will completely wipe that server and reload it.

Re: New Security Issue with CF

2013-01-02 Thread Robert Rhodes

Oh man I just looked and one of my standby servers got hit with this.
 Somehow we forgot to patch that one.  It had a bunch of sites on it, but
none of them were actually live (because it was a standby server).

So I have questions.

Does anyone know that this thing does?

I can just wipe this box and reload it, but it was on the network with our
other windows servers (some of which are SQL database servers).  Is it
possible this hacker could have accessed other other servers through this
hack?

Do we know the steps yet to clean up the mess?

Any idea where to look for damage that the hacker has caused?

I am a little lost here.

Re: r2 server (web edition(Can;t get CF installed on windows

2012-09-03 Thread Robert Rhodes

Well it turns out that Andrew and Will hit the nail on the head.  There is
something wrong with the cf9.0.2 installer.

Today, I reloaded the os and used the cf9 installer. Then I ran the cf9.0.1
updater, then I loaded up the administrator and all appeared to be working
fine.  Next, Ioaded a few sites and ran the web server config tool, and all
is working as expected.

Weird that the 9.0.2 exe does not work.

Re: r2 server (web edition(Can;t get CF installed on windows

2012-09-02 Thread Robert Rhodes

I agree. :)

I am installing with: ColdFusion_9_WWEJ_win64.exe from the link here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html#cf9

I have tried deinstalling and reinstalling CF9.02 a few times.

I have also tried reloading the OS and starting from scratch a few times.
 No luck.

I guess my next try will be to load from the 9.0 disc and do the updates.
 That's a pain but at least might get this damn server running.

This really should not be this hard.  Every other time I have done this it
has gone fine.  It's something about this particular build.

Each time I have tried running the config tool after installation, it has

reinstall the web configuration,  and still get the same errors.  It's
almost as if the 64bit windows 9.0.2 installer just has a problem.  (but I

r2 server (web edition(Can;t get CF installed on windows

2012-09-02 Thread Robert Rhodes

I have installed CF9 many times without incident, but am now having no luck
installing the new 9.0.2 x64 installer.  I am sure I am doing something
wrong, but I have tried everything I can think of and still no luck.

Hopefully someone here can help.

I am installing CF9.0.2 on Windows 2008R2 Server x64 (Web Edition).  After
installing the OS, I do all the OS patches first.

Next, I install the Web Server Role, and in role services, I install:
Static Content
Default Document
Http Errors
Http Redirection
Asp.net
.net extendibility
CGI
ISAPI Extensions
ISAPI FIlters
Htttp Logging
Request Monitor
Request FIltering
IP and Domain Restrictions
Static Content Compression
IIS Management Console

I then install CF9.0.2 in a small partition (f: drive) and when prompted I
use a path outside the webroot for the CFAdmin.

When the 9.0.2 Installer finishes, the administrator loads fine for the
final configuration.

Once CF is done with its final configuration, I add an IIS site, and drop
in a simple coldfusion file.

When I run the simple coldfusion file, I get this error:

HTTP Error 404.2 - Not Found
The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the ISAPI and CGI
Restriction list settings on the Web server.

I then check ISAPI and CGI Restrictions.  There are four entries there (2
asp.net and 2 Macromedia Server extensions)
I then try setting Allow unspecifiec CGI and ISAPI modules, but still no
luck.

Lastely, I try setting permissions on cgi and isapi (in Handler mappings)
to  and set them to execute. adnd still no luck.  But I now get this
different message:

HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error
The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.

Sorry for the long email.I have been trying to get this going for most
of the day and I am quite frustrated.

Any ideas?

Re: JVM settings question

2012-08-29 Thread Robert Rhodes

Yes: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM

How about I try setting min and max heap size to 2gb and see how that goes?
 Anything else I should tweak?  Garbage Collection?

JVM settings question

2012-08-29 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello to all.

I have several Windows 2008 R2 x64 servers running Coldfusion 9 standard.
 Each has 6 gigabytes of RAM.  Each runs about 50 fairly active sites.  I
have not had any JVM errors I know about but sometimes the sites run slower
than they should, as if CF is having trouble keeping up.

Any suggestions on JVM settings for this configuration?  Currently, I have
Min and Max JVM size both set at 1GB.  I have changed no other arguments.

Thanks for the help.

Re: Extracting text from various file-types

2012-08-10 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hi Bruce.  Thanks for the reply.

I did, but no luck.  On text files, I got the text just fine.  On Word
docs, I got the text but with a whole bunch of garbage in the return.

On ppt, pdf, and excel docs, they all come out as unreadable garbage.  I
tried both the "read" and "readbinary" actions and they both did not work.

Maybe I am doing something wrong?

I am using CF9.

Extracting text from various file-types

2012-08-10 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello again to all.

I need a way to extract text from word, excel, text, pdf, and ppt files
with Coldfusion, as the files are each submitted via a form.  The output
does not have to be particularly pretty or nicely formatted -- just plain
text that can be stored and searched later.

Any ideas?

Re: I guess it was bound to happen

2012-08-10 Thread Robert Rhodes

Yes, I am using CF for login security.

Thanks to all for the suggestions.  While I am considering the various
suggestions, I renamed the directory and removed the insecure page that had
links to the files (the client put this page up with he cms).  I then
changed all the links on the secure pages to the new directory name.  That
solves the problem now whileI  work out a more permanent solution.

Thanks again for the help.

I guess it was bound to happen

2012-08-10 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello everyone.

I have a site where a password is required to access the site.  On pages in
the site, there are links to download files.  I set the appropriate meta
tags and robots.txt to tell the search engines to not spyder the site.

Though the site pages are not in google, the files are showing up.  that's
bad.

It's a lot of files, so before I code up a solution to access all the
through logic so I can control the permissions, is there some way to
protect a directory so that files can't be downloaded without being logged
in on the site?

My guess is the answer is no, but I thought I would ask.

Re: Trouble setting up CF Builder

2012-06-08 Thread Robert Rhodes

After wasting an entire day trying to figure out how to get CFB2 to work
correctly with my development web server on the local network, I got tired
of beating my head against the wall and gave up.

So I loaded CF10 on my development machine and CFB controls the server just
fine, and RDS communication works fine too.  It's a shame that this can't
work with a local server on a private network.

But here's a question:  How do I get the files from the project directory
into the local webroot?  (I am running IIS7, btw).  I do not see any
mechanism to Put or Publish the files to the web root.  I am sure it's
something staring me in the face and I am just not seeing it.  Any ideas?

Re: Trouble setting up CF Builder

2012-06-07 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello Dave,  Thank you very much for the reply.

I tried as you suggested (good suggestion, btw), but I am still stuck.  I
thought it might be helpful to provide more detail:

I am running CF 9.0.1 on Windows Server 2k8 Standard x64.  CF is installed
in C:\Coldfusion9.

Multiple development sites are running under IIS7 at individual private IP
addresses (10.10.1.xxx).  The webroots for these sites are not within
C:\Coldfusion9, but are within the D:\dev\prj directory.

On the development server, I did run adminstart.bat in
C:\Coldfusion9\runtime\bin.

Here is what I entered during the server setup in CFB2:

General Settings...
Server Name: Development
Description: [blank]
Application Server: Jrun
Host Name: 10.10.1.199
"Is Local" is selected
Web Server Port: 80

J2EE Settings...
Context Root: [blank]
Application Server Name: [blank]
RDS Username: Developer
PDS Password: 

Enable SSL is not selected
Auto Start/Stop are not selected

Local Server Settings...
Server Home: P:\  (This points to C:\Coldfusion9 on the dev server.)
Document Root: Q:\ (This points to D:\dev\prj1425 on the dev server.)

Virtual Host Settings...
Name: prj1425
Host Name: 10.10.1.199
Port:80
Document Root: Q:\

When I try to refresh that server, I get this in the console log:
[Development]:(06/07 at 03:39:19) Server is available. Getting server
settings.
[Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:39:19) Unable to fetch server mappings.
[Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:39:20) Unable to fetch server mappings.
[Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:39:20) Unable to get the log directory.

When I try to restart it:
[Development]:Error(06/07 at 03:40:17) Unable to query service for the
server Development.

Now I realize I am not the brightest bulb in the box, but the setup
instructions and video all seem a bit too vague to me...

All help appreciated.

Trouble setting up CF Builder

2012-06-07 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello to all.

I am a little frustrated here trying to get CF Builder 2 set up.  Of course
it does not help that the cheezy synthetic-speech videos that you can play
from within CFB2 cannot be controlled while you have the setup dialogs open
(don't know how Adobe could have missed that).

Anyway, I think my problem is that both my CF install directory and my web
root are on another server on the local network.  So I am setting my server
home to: \\10.10.1.10\c$\ColdFusion9 and my document root to:
\\10.10.1.10\dev\prj1425

CFB2 doesn't seem to like the configuration.  It won't let me pick the CF
version and won't let me click next to move on.

Anyone got any ideas?

Hello to all.

I am working on a project where I need to get at the browser size of the
site visitor, as well as whether the browser supports Flash or not.  Can
anyone point me in the right direction?

The browser size detect is get at whether visitor is using a desktop,
tablet, or handheld browser, so I can load the best layouts for that
device.

The Flash detect is to load an alternative interface for i-devices.

As always, all help appreciated.

Video Streaming Provider

2012-05-02 Thread Robert Rhodes

My next project involves a bunch of streaming videos (mp4) for an
organization's users.

Each user will need to have access to a different set of videos. So, user 1
might have access to videos 100, 211, and 513, while user 2 has access to
videos 21, 100, 513 and 624.

So I'll need obviously need a different login, password, and access list
for each user.  I don't want to stream these videos on the organization's
site, but rather from an external provider.

Either I would just use this provider to stream the videos through a player
on the organization's site (preferred), or move the user off to the video
vendor's site and have the login and streaming happen there.  In that case,
I would need to set up the user specific video streaming lists at the
provider.

Either way, I am hoping to find a streaming video provider that has a
straightforward API that I can use to stream the videos and possible to set
up users, their passwords, and perhaps their access permissions to specific
videos.

Any suggestions?

Thanks to all, as always. :)

How to get IIS7 to redirect with query string

2012-04-04 Thread Robert Rhodes

Anyone out there know how to set up IIS7 to pass a query string?

Any url construct is probably fine as long as I can pass four variables and
it does not have a ? or a & in it (per client's requirements).

I am trying to get something like...

http://mydomain.com/redir/a/red/b/green

to redirect to:

http://mydomain.com/index.cfm?q=favorite.colors&a=red&b=green

Any Ideas?

Javascript test in ColdFusion

2012-03-26 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello again.

I have a site that loads all the content in ajax.  I also have a version of
the site that does not use ajax.

I am looking for some code I can put in the application.cfm to test to see
if the visitor's browser supports javascipt or not, so I can load the right
version of the site.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

If jsessionids are enabled, CF appears to set that cookie, no matter what.
 I know of no way to prevent that from happening.

And yes, even those the site being loaded by https, the jsessionid cookie
is still being set insecurely.

As I said before, this should be easier than it is.  Or maybe it's just
because I am missing something obvious.

Yes, I saw that.  But he does not say how he made the new jsession id
string.  I am sure it is not some random string he pro
grammatically generated.  So, there must be a way to get at the jsessionid
even if you don't have jsessionidenabled in the administrator.

That works for cfid and cftoken, thanks.  But it won't work for jsessionid,
because once that is selected in the administrator, it shows up as an
unsecure cookie, even if you have setclientcookies turned off.  That's a
bummer, I wanted to use jsessionids.

Ok, I am going to try to make the site work all ssl.  I am concerned about
the video streaming over ssl, but I guess we will see how it goes.

On a related subject:  is there a way to make the jsessionid cookie secure
without making the jrun change?  I ask because doing so affects all sites
on the server, and I had planed to run other sites on this particular
server.

I hear you, but there are issues preventing me from going all https.  It's

Is there a way to copy, with some code in the application.cfm, the

Re: Failed PCI Compliance test on CF9.01

2012-03-06 Thread Robert Rhodes

I just put back the jrun setting to pass cookies securely, and am sending
the jsessionid securely again.  And I am set up to use the database for
client storage.

It's still losing the session when I switch between http and https.

I do have setclientcookies to no, because that sets cfid and cftoken
insecurely which is what caused the PCI test failure.

This really should not be this hard.  I an't be the only person dealing
with this issue.  :(

Nope.  Just CF on this sever, and just this one site running.

Re: Failed PCI Compliance test on CF9.01

2012-03-06 Thread Robert Rhodes

For both Phillip and Donnie -- I just set the site up for database storage
for the client session in the cf admin (server settings -> client
variables), and I see data going in those two tables, but I am still losing
the session state when moving from https to http.  I have this set in my
application.cfm:

clientmanagement="Yes"
sessionmanagement="Yes"
setclientcookies="No"
clientstorage="MyDSN"

What am I doing wrong?

I did remove the change I made to jrun to force session cookies to be set
securely, but I doubt that matters now, because set client cookies is set
to no.

I am running cf 9.01 standard.

Justin, thanks for the reply, and I get your point, but I can't break out
the registration process into a standalone site quickly.  There must be a
fairly quick solution to this problem.  Surely, I can't be the first to

Failed PCI Compliance test on CF9.01

2012-03-05 Thread Robert Rhodes

So a site that I built failed PCI compliance testing because the jsessionid
cookie is not set securely.

I found this 
postthat
shows how to force jrun to do always set the session cookies securely,
but the user loses their session state when they move between secure and
non-secure pages (the jsessionid is different for secure pages).  This is
obviously a big problem, since we can't have the entire user session
running under ssl.  Any ideas on how to get the jsessionid to be the same
on secure and non-secure pages?  I am a little lost here.

I am running cf9.01, with the app set to sessionmanagement="yes" and
setclientcookies="no".  In the administrator, I have Cookie set as my
default client storage storage mechanism, and J2EE session variables
enabled.  I also have use UUID for cftoken enabled, but since I have
setclientcookies set to no, I don't think that matters.

Re: CFScript Book

2012-02-20 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hi Cameron.  I know CF very well. I been coding in it for many years.  But,
I admit, I am a little tagged out.

Cfscript feels more elegant, and as I learn more and more javascript, it
seems a natural time to try to get completely up to speed on cfscript.

I do wish Adobe would fill out CF so that one could write mostly in
cfscript and avoid cf tags altogether, if desired.  It would also help when
I end up around small-minded coders who scoff at CF merely because of the
tags.

Yes, I have answers for those types, like how I can produce the same apps
they can, but in 1/3 the time, or how Adobe puts a lot of development into
the language, which gets us big upgrades every few years -- or how we can
get a live body on the phone when we need one.

But still, I really want to be a cfscripter, and I am looking for a path to
make that happen.  There must be at least a few chapters in some book out
there somewhere, no?

Pete, thank you very much for the cheat sheet. That will come in handy.

Quick CF9 Install questions

2011-11-26 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hell to all.

I have to deploy a couple new CF9 installs today, and I just want to
confirm that I have this right:

Download the installer here:
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=coldfusion

Then the CF 9 Update 1 (9.01) here:
http://www.adobe.com/support/coldfusion/downloads_updates.html

Then the CF9 Cumulative Hot-Fix here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/918/cpsid_91836.html

That's all I need for CF, yes?

Sorry for the dumb question, it's still yesterday to me.  :(

missing args in jvm

2011-07-19 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hi to all.

I notice that the jvms on a couple of my cf9.01 installs dont include these
args that the others do:

-Djava.security.policy={application.home}/../lib/coldfusion.policy
-Djava.security.auth.policy={application.home}/../lib/neo_jaas.policy

What are these for, and why would they be missing form a couple of the
installs?

Maybe I did the 9.01 patch incorrectly on those two boxes?  It is a bit of a
pain in the ass

Re: CFIDE weirdness in iis7

Andrew, your post on the cf9.01 install problem hits the nail on the head.
I have been complaining about this since I first got cf9.01 running.  I
talked with Adobe tech support, but they could not seem to grasp why I did
not want to install IIS 6 compatibility.  Therefore, they don't see this as
a problem.

So we should not hold our breath for a solution.

Re: CFIDE weirdness in iis7

Aha.  The trick is to stop cf, rename the incorrect cfide, delete the
web.config files, restart cf, load the administrator at its new location.

Will, thanks for the reply.  I tried changing the mapping to the cfide
directory in neo-runtime.xml, but it keeps reverting to its original path.

I don't want to use the CFIDE that is in the wwwroot directory, but rather a
copy of the directory in another location.

Re: cf9 query not returning identityCol

2011-06-04 Thread Robert Rhodes

This is the way I have been doing it.  I may have to keep doing it this way
if I can't get result.identityCol to work the way it is supposed to:


  INSERT INTO
someTable
  (
firstName,
lastName
  )
  VALUES
  (
,

  )
  SELECT
Scope_Identity() AS ID

#tinsertRecord.ID#

It's a little more efficient than doing it with two separate querys.

Re: CFIDE weirdness in iis7

2011-06-04 Thread Robert Rhodes

Oh yeah, I know.  But if you set the connector to all sites, and you add a
new site, they all go down until you remove the connector and reapply it.

And even when you set the connector on a site by site basis (which is a
pain), if you change the site's root directory (like when you are deploying
a new version), cf stops working for that site and you have remove its
connector and reapply it again.  Another pain.

I have chosen to go with the second approach, becuase at least it doesn;t
take down all sites.

I really don't want to install iis6 compatibility just to use Coldfusion.

Adobe needs to fix this.

CFIDE weirdness in iis7

2011-06-04 Thread Robert Rhodes

I am still grumpy about how 9.01 does not install nicely with IIS7 withouth
first installing the IIS compatibility tools.

But not I am having a new weirdness.

I usually do not set virtual directories pointing to cfide and cfdocs. I get
at the administrator on an admin site that is only available via vpn.

When I installed the web connector on IIS7, it automatically added those
virtual directories to a public facing web site, so I deleted them.  But
when you go to the admin login url, the form is still there (but the links
to all the images are broken), and you can actually log into the cf admin
from the public site.

But those virtual directories are really deleted!

What am I missing here?

Re: Debugging SOAP

2011-06-04 Thread Robert Rhodes

I wanted to circle back and thank everyone who helped me on this thread.

I did as Nathan described below, and it was immediately clear that the
cfinvoke posts were not going out.  After some painful troubleshooting and
using a lot of very bad words, I figured out why.

When using cfinvoke, you must pass ALL arguments specified in the wsdl --
even though they are not required by the service.

I swear, I looked at the cf9 docs a bunch of times and never saw that!

The good news is that you can pass unneeded arguments with omit=yes so you
don't have to set their values. But how crazy is that?  You are required to
pass all arguments just so you can tell cfinvoke to omit them!

In the end it all worked out, but what a pain in the arse!

cf9 query not returning identityCol

2011-06-04 Thread Robert Rhodes

I am frustrated.  :(

In the cf9 docs, it says that cfquery is supposed to return, in the result
variable, the identity column value of the inserted record.  However it is
not working from me.

Would one of you kind souls point out my mistake?


  INSERT INTO
someTable
  (
firstName,
lastName
  )
  VALUES
  (
,

  )


#theResult.identityCol#

When I run this, identityCol is not there.

I am indeed using an autonumbering identity column in the database.

Yes, I know I can just add a select to this query to get at it, but I really
want this to work, dammit!

Re: Debugging SOAP

2011-05-24 Thread Robert Rhodes

Nathan, thanks for the reply.

I don't need to monitor between my computer and the application server.  I
need to monitor between the application server and a remote server across
the web that hosts the web service.  I have no control over the remote
server and the folks that do are only marginally helpful.  Worse, they are
taking the position that this is a Coldfusion problem.  All very
frustrating.

I did try Charles and had no luck, but will take a look again.

Re: Debugging SOAP

2011-05-24 Thread Robert Rhodes

Yes they are willing to do quick non-ssl tests.  But even non-secure I have
had no luck getting any of the recommended monitors/proxies to capture the
soap exchange between a cf9 server and their server.

They tell me there is nothing specific showing up in their logs.

I really just want to see the xml going out and the response.  That should
tell me everything I need.  It is really frustrating I have had so much
trouble with this.

Re: Debugging SOAP

2011-05-24 Thread Robert Rhodes

Yes, via cfinvoke. But I am getting errors back on all services when I am
trying to post data.  Getting data via cfinvoke is fine.

Does your reply mean to say that there are problems with cfinvoke?

I could build manually the xml but this is many services with many nodes.
It would take a long time to do it. So I am really  hoping that cfinvoke
works out.

Re: Debugging SOAP

Anyone else have any ideas on how to monitor SOAP exchanges between my
application server and the remote server hosting the service?

Everything I have tried so far (fiddler, Charles, soapUI, wireshark) is just
not working (Or I don't know enough to make it work).

Yes I loaded it on the development web/cf9 server. And I set fiddler to the
ssl port we are using.

cfinvoke to post up the soap to the server across the web.  Fiddler saw

I am sure I have it configured incorrectly.

Yes, that is the case.  And all my attempts so for to view the https xml and
response have failed.  This is probably because there is some part of this
that I am just not getting.

I am hoping for that lightbulb moment soon.  In the meantime, I am feeling
totally lost

Hi Pete.  I did try soapui, and it looked like it should do what I wanted,
but I could not figure out how to make it work so that I could capture the
outgoing soap and responses between my dev server and the remote server.

Hello Jochem.  I checked out Wireshark, but did not see a way for it to show
me the XML I was sending.  Am I missing something?  It looks like Wireshark
is a packet capture tool?

Debugging SOAP

2011-05-22 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello everyone. I appreciate the help you have given me recently. Now I have
a new challenge, and I am sure some of you have faced it before.

I have written an application that gets and puts data to a SOAP .asmx web
service running on a windows server across the internet.  I am using
cfinvoke.

All my gets are working fine.  I am getting the expected data.  However all
my puts are failing, and the guy at the other end says my soap xml must be
wrong.  Hey, it might be, but I have not been able to come up with a way to
see it.

I did a google search and found Fiddler and Charles, and installed them both
on the dev server which is running my application.  But no luck.  Each
program seems to monitor the traffic between my browser and local dev
server, but I need to monitor traffic betwen dev server and the other server
across the internet (on a non-standard ssl port).

Would one of you kind souls tell me how to configure one of these programs
(or some other program) so I can see my SOAP going out and see the response?

Re: Ack! CF9 pages not serving pages on IIS7.5 (404.3 error)

2011-05-12 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hey Kym.  So are you saying that you don't have to remove and reinstall the
connector every time you add a site (or change a directory)?

What's the down-side of running with the ii6 extensions installed?

If there is not a big performance hit, it might make sense to do so.

Hello Russ.  How would I do it manually?  Are there instructions somewhere?

It sure feels like that's the problem (connectors not being installed at the
root level).

There just has to be a decent workaround for this problem.

Re: Ack! CF9 pages not serving pages on IIS7.5 (404.3 error)

2011-05-12 Thread Robert Rhodes

Andrew, thanks.  That is exactly what I was experiencinging.

I am quite surprised that this problem has not been sorted out by Adobe.  I
really like CF, but this seems a bit lame.

I briefly tried installing the connector on individual sites, but it didn't
seem to work (was still getting 404.3 errors). Since I was short on time, I
set the connector for all sites and made myself a big not tom remind me not
to touch anything. It's crazy I had to do that.

Adobe needs to get this sorted out.

Re: Ack! CF9 pages not serving pages on IIS7.5 (404.3 error)

2011-05-11 Thread Robert Rhodes

Well that kinda helps, but only for a time.

After I run the web service configuration tool and  select ALL for IIS Web
Site, and check configure web server for Coldfusion 9 applications, CF will
process pages fine... but only until I change the webroot of an existing
site or add anther site.  Then, all sites stop serving and give that 404.3
error until I remove the CF web config and reinstall it.Then things work
fine until the next time I change a directory or add a site, when it will
die again.

This certainly was not the case in IIS6.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to set up CF9 with IIS7.5 so that is does
not exhibit this crazy behavior?  I can't take every site down each time I
make a change in IIS.

Ack! CF9 pages not serving pages on IIS7.5 (404.3 error)

2011-05-11 Thread Robert Rhodes

Ok, I downloaded cf 9 and installed it on WIn2K8 R2 Web Server Edition.as a
standalone installation.

I then ran the 9.01 updater and he 9.01 hotfix.

Finally, I ran the webserver config tool and selected IIS all sites.

Now when I load a cf template I get a 404.3 error and this message:

HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found
The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension
configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be
downloaded, add a MIME map.

I am sure I did something wrong.  Any suggestions

(ot) Couple of quick IIS 7 questions

2011-05-11 Thread Robert Rhodes

Sorry for the off-topic questions, but everyone here is so helpful, and if
you saw my posts, you know that   I am under the gun.

1) How do I remove "Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.5" from the response headers?

2) Have any of you ever user IIS7 caching for a CF site? I am assuming it
will be applicable only for images, but this site has a lot of them.  Which
mode  do I use?  Kernel-mode or User-mode?

Thanks for all your help.  You folks are keeping me sane.

Re: Coldfusion 9 on Windows 2008 R2 Server Web Server Edition?

2011-05-11 Thread Robert Rhodes

Well, it wasn't as easy as I had hoped.

I installed cf 9 as a standalone installation.  I updated to 9.01 and
applied the 9.01 hotfix.

I then ran the web Server Configuration Tool, and got an error:

ASP.Net Window's feature is not installed. They are required to configure
IIS7 Connector.

I am installing this on Wn2K8 R2 Web Server Edition as  I mentioned above.

So now what? :)

Ok, thanks.  I haven't installed cf9 before and I didn't want to find out

Coldfusion 9 on Windows 2008 R2 Server Web Server Edition?

2011-05-09 Thread Robert Rhodes

Hello again.

Just a quick question.  Will Coldfusion 9 run fine on Windows 2008 R2 Server
Web Server Edition?  Or do I need to buy Standard edition licenses?

Also, so I still need to install the II6 compatibility extensions? Or has
that all be sorted out now.

I installed Win2K8 on one of the servers last night, and discovered there is
actually 6GB of memory in them.  I had forgotten that I had to install the
RAM sticks in threes on these servers.  Just sitting there idling, it's got
340mb cached, 5451mb available, and 5133mb free.

It looks like I will be x64 on Win2K8R2 for two of these boxes which will
have only 4gb on memory, at least for now.

With that in mind... can I up my jvm settings a bit?

Re: Help! Too much tracffic and too little time!

2011-05-07 Thread Robert Rhodes

Well, I am thinking I will try one or two win2K8 servers.  Unfortunately, I
can't order any licenses until Monday.  And by then it will be too late.

Does anyone know if the evaluation version of Win2K* R2 in MS TechNet will
work temporarily as web server in evaluation mode (no license applied)?
That is: will a W2K* R2 server in evaluation mode allow all these
connections?

I know we are suopposed to use them in production, but I really would order
the licenses before I installed them and would apply the licenses on those
servers as soon as they came in.

I am hoping it is a minor sin. :)

Thanks. I'll look into that.  Being a Windows guy, I am not sure how well
Squid and I would get along. :)
