Re: warm stand by for a coldfusion application
You can configure your load-balancers to have sticky sessions, or route traffic however you like. The only problem is price, and is it overkill for this situation. Your IP change is the cheapest and simplest. It will also have a period of downtime until you can get to the server to make the switch. Also, you want to configure your first machine to _not_ come up and grab the prod IP address. So, just some logic that would: 1. run a hearbeat from the backup server which checks the health of the prod server 2. If the prod server is unavailable: configure a NIC with the prod IP, and bring it up. 3. on the prod server, don't bring up the prod IP. Just setup multiple IPs on a single nic, and make the prod IP the secondary on both boxes: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch03_:_Linux_Networking#Multiple_IP_Addresses_on_a_Single_NIC good luck, speeves On Mon, Sep 14, 2009 at 12:19 PM, Brian Dumbledore psteja2...@yahoo.comwrote: Have had really good luck with Coyote Point load balance hardware.

Re: Deploying to a server farm
We used a shared SAN, so all instances of Coldfusion were looking at the same code, and then had shell scripts that would ssh into the boxes and restart the appropriate Coldfusion instances. I have also seen instances in which code is mirrored on each box, using rsync, or shell scripts to push the code out to the boxes. The push scripts would contain the restart commands, so that the server would be restarted once the new code was in place. speeves On Wed, Jun 17, 2009 at 10:51 AM, Donnie Carvajal donnie.carva...@transformyx.com wrote: My applications are hosted on multiple servers and I am storing several DAO components in the Application scope.

(Just make sure you store them in the DB, not in the Registry.) Basically, the Client vars are a contract between the browser and the application, whereas Session vars are a contract between the browser and the server. Since the application verifies a user's Client session by reading back to the shared database, it doesn't matter if the user shifts back and forth across servers in the cluster, whether going from www.example.com to example.com or from http: to https:, since the application always retrieves the 'correct' session. Now, I know that there is a big push in CF8 to stop using Client vars, but I will tell you that it does work quite well in the situation you describe. We ran apps, including many ecommerce apps, in a cluster of 4-5 hardware-balanced servers for years without having dropped session issues using Client vars. I would agree with this one the most. It seems to me that the session data is not being shared between CF instances, and when they hit https, the client is moved to another CF instance, which does not have their session information. speeves ~| 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:319824 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4

Re: Clustering with Synchronization/Mirroring
At one location, we NFS mounted our webroot to our web server boxes, and coldfusion machines, which worked well. I have also worked in a high-traffic environment, where the preference was to perform scheduled implementations on all boxes. In this case, we would deploy the whole code base to each server, and then verify that they were in sync before putting them back in service. The idea here is to reduce customer impact by removing a single point of failure, (ie a SAN), as well as remove any latency of network calls off the box. It depends on what your goals are. speeves On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 1:25 PM, Matthew Williams mai...@geodesicgrafx.comwrote: That's going to highly depend on your server architecture. We have Windows 2003 R2 Enterprise. The NFS clustering in that release has been fantastic, and has only failed one time in about a year. It's multi-point sync (a - b, b - a) and can do partial file changes as well. This also requires that the machines be part of an active directory domain.

Although clustering is working great, we would like have a facility that when a server generates a file on one server it gets automatically pushed to the other parallel server. Is that possible with ColdFusion clustering or we to invest on additional software/perhaps proprietrary ones? Naturally, the two folders (one on each of the parallel servers) need to contain the same content, so ideally when one gets generated on one server it is immediately replicated on the other server.

simple as a file format. A flat file can certainly contain sufficient

Re: Proper Authentication with CFLDAP?
There are three types of binds that a LDAP server can be configured for: 1. anonymous - the tree is world readable, so no credentials are checked, and your search has all of the rights granted to anonymous 2. user bind - the user authenticates against the tree, and has rights granted based upon the users rights. (no anonymous reads usually). 3. unauthenticated - anonymous binding with user dn, but no password. 1 and 2 are the most prevalent. I don't have as much experience with Active Directory, so they may have extended these possibilities. speeves On Fri, Oct 24, 2008 at 8:38 AM, Dawson, Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: It depends on your LDAP server. It appears that you are not using Active Directory due to the way you have handled your start and username attributes. AD allows any domain user to query the directory. Other servers, such as Novell DS, may require you to first query the directory for the DN of the user who is trying to authenticate. This first query will require a known username and password. Then, the second query will take the first query's DN and use it as the username. If all works, then, the user is authenticated. However, I have worked with a Novell server that doesn't require a username/password at all. From what I am told, this is common for Novell servers. There are a couple of improvements I would suggest. 1. As Shannon said, for the START, you can specify the root of the users container, rather than the DN of the user object. If you are told to specify the DN in the START, then change your SCOPE to BASE. There is no SUBTREE for a single object. Therefore, there is no need to ask the LDAP server to search through sub-OUs when you just told it the exact destination. It doesn't hurt, but it's confusing when reading the code. 2. While authenticating, you can also bring out other attributes such as givenName, sn, mail, etc. Currently, you are returning only cn. You may need other attributes within your application, so why not authenticate, and get their values, in a single request? 3. You don't need the cfelse part of your condition. You already know the UserIsValid variable is 0.

Yes, this would let you know that they are authenticated. It assumes that you LDAP server allows users to read from the tree. I'm not sure about using the full DN to the object with the start key.

Re: docx (office 2007) from CF? (Cross)
Perfectly possible in a PDF file format. Sometimes without paying Adobe (OpenOffice v3, for example). I'm just a poor country chicken... but this here OpenOffice don't seem like it's Word. Seriously tho' - the requirement is to do this in Word. It's nonsensical to suggest non-Word alternatives. The client-side requirements are immutable. OpenOffice can convert between Microsoft Office and other document formata, (server-side). (It's really probably the best there is at this). OpenDocument Format is the original standard for file representation, ( ISO/IEC 26300:2006 Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) v1.0), so I don't know why Microsoft pursued a second standard... Last but not least, Microsoft Office will soon support OpenDocument Format, ( http://www.microsoft.com/Presspass/press/2008/may08/05-21ExpandedFormatsPR.mspx).

Take the following example. I am creating array that holds 2 values. If I were to dump it everything would be fine but If I tried to output it like below I would get the same error you are. cfset skills = ArrayNew(1) cfset arrayAppend(skills,ColdFusion) cfset arrayAppend(skills,JavaScript) cfoutput#skills#/cfoutput This is because the compiler does not understand what you are trying to do.

Also, note the format: Redirect [status] URL-path URL So: Redirect 301 /my/old/location http://domain.com/my/new/location Enjoy! speeves ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:309259 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Am I looking at this correctly? Probably. I run Debian, and no MSSQL server or control panel. So that evens it up with more pipeline, etc. We needed more pipeline, (peaking at 1.3 TB a month), so just moved from running our own box at colo4dallas to a managed box at serverbeach. They have both been good. We used serverpronto for about 2 years, (back in the day), and they were pretty solid as well. (For anyone who is interested). Cool.

Re: workarounds for cfldap MS AD SSLv3 / TLSv1

I have no need for client certificates (no authentication, just confidentiality and integrity protection). Unfortunately it appears as if the LDAP server will only accept SSLv3 and TLSv1 and CF can at best use SSLv2. For a quick test I tunneled the cfldap traffic over an stunnel connection (http://stunnel.org/) without client certificates and that worked fine, but I would rather not depend on that in a production environment. Any recommendations for an LDAP library that can do SSLv3 or a way to downgrade MS AD to accept SSLv2? Coldfusion has always lagged behind in secure connections to LDAP, so we ran an stunnel on a fairly trafficked site for about four years with no issue. Obviously, you have to aware of changes to stunnel when you run operating system updates, but otherwise stunnel is rock solid. speeves ~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:308929 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
