Getting CF to display value, not variable

2002-10-09 Thread Steven Monaghan 

For the app I am working on, the "power users" are given a maintenance
screen.  From this screen, they can build a free-form description. But, they
need to be able to include dynamic data in the description.

They are entering variable names in the description wrapped in # signs.
But, I cannot figure out how to get CF to realize that the data inside the
variable needs to be evaluated as well as the data itself.

I tried using the Evaluate function, but it blew up when it hit the # sign.

Sorry if this is a simple question, but I only get to do CF part time, and
appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Steve

RE: Issue with text database on Unix

2002-08-28 Thread Steven Monaghan 

Yup.  Still treated is as numeric.  I wound up having to put a dummy row in
the file with text in those columns to force the driver to treat them as
text.

Ugly, but it works.

Issue with text database on Unix

2002-08-27 Thread Steven Monaghan 

I configured a data source, and can now query any csv file I drop into a
directory.  The only issue I am having, is that sometimes, a "text" column
only has numeric data.  The driver assumes that since the column only
contains numeric data, that the column is numeric.  So, any reference to
this column as a string (ie DESCRIPTION NE '') fails on a datatype error.

Does anyone know how to tell CF/Merant ODBC Text driver that this column is
a text column?

TIA,
Steve Monaghan

RE: Problem writing query result to file

2002-05-21 Thread Steven Monaghan 

Nevermind...

The process is to be run by only one person, so it doesn't protect against
multiple people running at the same time.  The person double-clicked the
link, causing the process to run twice simultaneously, creating the issue.

If it continues to happen, I'll use unique file names to eliminate the
problem.

Thanks again,

I think you'd have two choices...

1. CFLOCK the  tag (not recommended)
2. build up a string in the CFOUTPUT then do a single 

Both options will fix your problem, but the second one will be MUCH faster
(assuming you are not memory constrained)

RE: OT: Oracle version of TOP

2002-03-28 Thread Steven Monaghan 

What version are you on?

In 8.1 (8i) and above, you can do the following:
SELECT Empno, Ename, Job, Mgr, Hiredate, Sal
   FROM
   (SELECT Empno, Ename, Job, Mgr, Hiredate, Sal
  FROM Emp
  ORDER BY NVL(Sal, 0) DESC)
   WHERE ROWNUM < 6;

For 8.0 and below, you cannot do an order by in a nested select, but you can
cheat by doing the following:
SELECT Empno, Ename, Job, Mgr, Hiredate, Sal
   FROM
   (SELECT Empno, Ename, Job, Mgr, Hiredate, Sal
  FROM Emp
  union
SELECT 1,2,3,4,5,6
 from dual where 1=2)
   WHERE ROWNUM < 6;
The union forces a sort (in ascending order only!) and tricks oracle into
sorting.

Here's a link that should help...

RE: SQL indexing

2002-02-27 Thread Steven Monaghan 

The answer is a definite maybe.

I'm Oracle familiar, not SQL Server, but if the data is skewed in any 
of
those columns(90%=0 10%=1) then you may get some benefit when 
selecting the
smaller value.  Also, Oracle has special indexes for columns with low
cardinality called bitmap indexes.  These are amazing for static data, 
but
can really slow down inserts and updates on these tables.  You might 
want to
see if SQL Server has something similar. 

HTH,

Subject: OT: SQL indexing


Is there any benefit to indexing a "tinyint" field that is used as a 
boolean
(either 1 or 0)?  I have four fields that work this way and I use them
heavily in queries for reporting.  They are used in aggregate functions
(count and sum) as well as in the where clauses for various queries.

I know I could play with the indexes and test the timing, but I only 
have a
live database to work with and don't want to disrupt anything until I 
feel
there will be some significant benefit.

Also, along the same lines, I report by grouping output (in SQL - not 
CF's
group=) using the DAY, HOUR and MONTH parts of a datetime stamp.  
Will
indexing help when using portions of a datetime field in this way, as
opposed to considering the entire field?

BTW - this is using SQL Server 2000 (and I guess the same theory would 
apply
to SQL 7).

Thanks!

Complete lack of locking...

2001-11-21 Thread Steven Monaghan 

I inherited an application that uses session variables and has no CFLOCK
tags in it at all! All session variables have a CFPARAM in the
Application.cfm, but even there it isn't inside a cflock.  I was reading the
docs and even if I set the locking to "Automatic Read Locking", I don't
think I'm protected from potential locking problems.  

Am I understanding things correctly?  Do I need to go through every bit of
code, find where a session variable is referenced and put it in a ReadOnly
lock, and find where a session variable is updated and put it in a Exclusive
lock?

TIA,
Steve

Cold Fusion Error on Solaris

2001-11-01 Thread Steven Monaghan 

We have just taken over hosting of a Cold Fusion website in-house.  We are
running on Solaris and have been live for just over 2 days without any
problems.  All of a sudden, everyone trying to connect to the site received
the following error:

Unix error number 24 occurred: Too many open files

This was displayed in a standard Cold Fusion error format.  My Sysadmin
stopped and started the webserver running on the box, and the problem was
resolved.  Anyone else had a similar problem and willing to offer some
guidance?

This formats fine: Gives the result: (123)456-7890

#TELEPHONE#


BUT I need it to loop through a 2ndary query and this does not work: Gives
result 1234567890.0


#TELEPHONE#



Someone sent me the code 
(#insert("-",foo,6)# but this just gives me a result of
(123456-7890.0
and I'm not sure how to get the other ) and how to get rid of the decimal

Anyways I find it all kind of weird that that is the only formatting that is
screwy- all the others (ie: city, state zip) etc are fine.
Any ideas?

  SELECT count(t.File) as file3, g.File, t.File
  FROM tblfile t, gilway12 g
  WHERE t.File=g.File
  GROUP BY g.File

Subject: Important - For a project -- please help


Can you use counts with joined tables and a where statement?

This seems like a dumb question...

Goto:  http://www.cheshiregroup.com/gilway/subcount3.cfm

My client wants the count of each separate number...next to the
number preferably...

This is tricky because there is 2  tables, one that takes the input
of the form with the customer's number(tblfile), and the other that has all
the valid numbers (gilway12).

I got just the valid numbers to come up on subcount3.cfm, by using aliases
and
a where statement and joining tables.

Then he said he  wanted a count and I can't get it to work with the
code...

Below is the sql code for the statement using File in both tables...
I keep getting errors around the WHERE statement when it worked in
subcount3.cfm...



  SELECT count(t.File) as file3, g.File, t.File
  FROM tblfile t, gilway12 g
  GROUP BY g.File
  WHERE t.File=g.File



produces the incorrect code.


SELECT count(File) AS file2
FROM tblfile





  SELECT t.File, g.File
  FROM tblfile t, gilway12 g
  WHERE t.File=g.File
  ORDER BY t.File DESC



produces subcount3.cfm

RE: Strangest Problem in a long time

2001-10-04 Thread Steven Monaghan 

What about creating a database view with the corrected name?  This way, you
don't have to change your Cold Fusion generated SQL, except for the
table/view name or the actual database layout.

Dave, 


I'm using this in a large site where the SQL is generated based on the
fieldname. 

fieldnameXXcolumnname is translated into:
Insert into fieldname (columname) values ('#fieldnameXXcolumname#');

I will have to come up with an extra conversion step to change the name of
these fields and then change them back. What a bummer.

No, you can't turn the feature off, but you can certainly change the names
of your form fields - there's no reason that they have to be identical in
name to the database fields.

Subject: SQL Query Quandary


I've got three tables describing lodging properties and their amenities, as
shown below.  If a lodging property has more than one amenity (for example,
hot tub, min-ibar, fireplace, etc) then there are multiple records for that
property in the property_amenities table.  Pretty basic stuff.

properties
-
propertyid  autonumber
propertynametext

amenities
-
amenityid   autonumber
amenitydescription  text

property_amenities
-
property_amenityid  autonumber
propertyid  number
amenityid   number


I need to form a search for all properties that meet the criteria of having
all of the amenities that a user asks for.  Not an OR, but, logically an
AND - all properties that have ALL of the amenities ask for.  The user
interface is a form with check boxes, so that when the form is submitted I
have a comma delimited list of amenityid's to work with.  Given the above
table structure, I have no idea how to form this query.

Thanks for any assistance,
Jim

RE: AND & OR placement in SQL

My suggestion when mixing AND & OR is to wrap everything in parentheses.
This way there can be no confusion.

SELECT left(subject,20) as newsubject, * FROM advert_details
WHERE 
(
town = '#form.towny#'
OR 
(
natpaid = Yes 
AND nationwide = Yes
)
)

AND category = '#form.category#'


Is that the correct grouping?

Bit confused on the placement of AND & OR operators in the same query.


SELECT left(subject,20) as newsubject, * FROM advert_details
WHERE town = '#form.towny#'
OR (natpaid = Yes AND nationwide = Yes)



AND category = '#form.category#'



Before form.category is defined, the query works as I want it to.  But once
form.category is defined, will the addition of an AND operator muck up the
query?

RE: SQL - Oracle Functions

2001-09-24 Thread Steven Monaghan 

Not one function, but a combination of two should serve your purpose...

select A.event_id, to_char(A.event_date,'mm/dd/ hh24:mi:ss'),
A.event_type, A.event,
B.name, B.description
from table_a A, table_b B
where upper(B.name) = substr(upper(a.event), instr(a.event, '.', -1), 2)

A quick explanation,
substr(string, start position, length)

We know the field and the length, so now we need the start position
instr(string, field to find, start position)
Putting a start position of -1 tells oracle to work from the end of the
list.

Hope this works, since I don't have your data to test.  If you still have
problems, let me know.

Let me see if I can explain this clearly...I am trying to join 2 tables,
using a field from table A to match just a part of a field in table B
(re-working of my tables and what I store will fix this, but I want to see
if it can be done in my current setup)
 
select A.event_id, to_char(A.event_date,'mm/dd/ hh24:mi:ss'),
A.event_type, A.event,
B.name, B.description
from table_a A, table_b B
where B.name = "a part of A.event"
 
A.event is a long string of data, stored from a system log, which I can
parse out the name for display purposes with the following cf code:
#Ucase(ListLast(GetToken(event, 2, chr(10)), '.'))#
 
select A.event_id, to_char(A.event_date,'mm/dd/ hh24:mi:ss'),
A.event_type, A.event,
B.name, B.description
from table_a A, table_b B
where upper(B.name) = '#Ucase(ListLast(GetToken(A.event, 2, chr(10)),
'.'))#'
 
The above does not work, since it does not know the value of A.event.
 
Are there any Oracle functions that can achieve this result?
If not I will just rework the table to parse out the name prior to insertion
and store it in table A to do a straight join (A.name = B.name)

RE: RE: Mystery:Code dissappears/changes on Unix Server

2001-09-17 Thread Steven Monaghan 

Here's a possible suggestion: case of the file name.

On Unix, the file names are case sensitive.  So, maybe a piece of code has
the wrong case in a link.  Or when you deploy the file to your server, you
are putting it in the wrong case, since MS doesn't care about case you may
just be putting a second file out instead of overwriting the original file.

I haven't had the specific problems you guys are reporting, but have had
file name case problems before on my Unix box.

EC, would love to but there is absolutely no consistency in
the errors.  Could be a what looks like a typing error, 
could be a line of code, could be what looks like reversion to
the prior code,  or it could be code that looks like somebody
else (highly unlikely) touched it -- causing the "Who did this" reaction.

It is never the same .cfm and has happened across programs.
It is not every day or week or month.  It is occassional and
can always be corrected although finding out what the problem
is takes time especially when the program was working the
night before.

I know this sounds like going to a car mechanic and saying
occasionally, sporadically, I hear a "boink" and asking them 
to fix it.  And, in my lifetime, only once and very recently, 
I sheepishly made this crazy kind of report to my mechanic,
expecting the usual -- if it happens again call me -- and,
to my complete and utter surprise, it turned out to be
something very specific for which they had a fix.

So, I'm hoping that is true in this case too!

Hi all. 

We have been experiencing code problems on our Unix server.
Pages that are working on day 1 are NOT working on day 2.
It is NOT multiple developers hitting the same code at the
same time as far as we can track.  It is NOT that changes
are not being received by the server, we can see the effects
of changed code.  

We are working on an NT platform with our data stored on
SYBASE IQ12 and ColdFusion on a UNIX platform.

Any and all possible solutions would be appreciated and
will be explored.

Subject: SQL help for a brain that's not awake yet


I know the answer to my problem is easy I just can't seem to get my brain
functioning today. 

My problem is that I want to get the number of times an integer ID appears
in a list of columns for every row in a table. The integer ID is from an
outer SQL statement that I am looping through. 

An example
Current ID = 1
DBColumn 1  DBColumn 2

1  1
2  1
1  1
The result should be 5. The second time I loop through the outer sql
statement the ID would be 2 and the result should = 1

Here is what the current SQL statement looks like:
SELECT Count(*) as Total FROM Cycles WHERE (BrandNameID1_1=#LoopIndex# OR

BrandNameID3_2=#LoopIndex# OR BrandNameID1_3=#LoopIndex# OR
BrandNameID2_3=#LoopIndex# OR BrandNameID3_3=#LoopIndex#)

This however returns only the number of rows that have the loop index in it.

I know there is probably an easy solution to this but for the life of me I
can't think straight today. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Problem with re-direct to other site.

2001-09-07 Thread Steven Monaghan 

All,

We are in the process of trying to bring a website currently hosted
externally in-house.  As part of the process, I removed all hard-coded
references to the URL in the code and set up a web server.  Instead of using
the DNS, I am testing using IP:port.

In my development environment, it appears that any reference to the root
directory of the web goes to production.

For example, a link that references /index.htm will not go to
http://1.1.1.1:80/index.htm.  Instead, it will go to
http://www.production-site.com/index.htm.  This makes it impossible to test.

I took a quick look at the both the Netscape and the Cold Fusion
administration applications, but don't see any settings that would control
the root being something other than the server itself.

Does anyone have an idea where to look?  I already reviewed all of the code,
and there are no references to the other address in the code.  

HELP!!!

Thanks in advance,
