ColdFusion and IIS Application Pool recycling

2008-03-24 Thread mark kecko
Setup: Windows 2003 Server / IIS 6 / CF 8
We have several websites setup in IIS, each with their own IIS application 
pool.  Every once in a while, one of these application pools will fail more 
than 5 times in ten minutes, causing the application pool to shutdown.  The 
good news is all of our other websites, on their own app pools, stay up.

Problem: 
After we recycle the app pool, and try to run a CF page, we get an error that 
states there is no mapping between IIS and CF.  My thoughts were that this was 
somehow an IIS issue, and I wanted to confirm that.  I thought the easiest way 
to do so would be to make sure restarting the CF service didn't fix the 
problem.  So I restarted CF, and, to my surprise, we website started working 
again.

So my questions are...
Why do I have to restart CF after I recycle an IIS application pool to get 
everything working again?
To a deeper level, besides the ISAPI extensions (.cfm, .cfc, etc.) listed in 
the IIS websites Home Directory  Configuration  Application Configuration 
page, what is the relationship between IIS, IIS application pools and CF.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated!

Problems with Application / CFApplication, I think

2007-11-20 Thread mark kecko
I'm getting this odd error (see below) in my exception log that has something 
to do with my cfapplication tag.  There's nothing, that I'm aware of, which 
points me in the right direction. The error just lists my application name, as 
specified in my cfapplication tag, and nothing else.

I'm running CFMX 6.1 (6,1,0,83762) with the 6.1 updater.  I'm using FuseBox 4.1 
and connecting to a MySQL 5 server.  Does anyone have any idea what could be 
causing this error?

Memory problems with large arrays

2003-09-22 Thread Mark Kecko
I'm using three arrays to handele 34,000 items each.  Two of the arrays are 
ints and the third is HTML code.  I add each array to a query so I can access 
them later in my cfoutput statement.  After I'm done with these arrays I 
clear them using arrayClear and resize them to 1 element.  However each time 
I run the page it eats up 3% of the memory on my machine and never releases 
it.  I'm using CF 5.0 on Windows 2000.  Is there any way to stop these arrays 
from eating up memory?  TIA.

Dynamic Arrays

2002-11-14 Thread Mark Kecko
Can anybody tell me why this set to a dyanamically named array won't work,
is there a workaround?  I've tried ArraySet with the same results.  IsArray
and ArrayLen recognize it, but I can not Append or Insert items.  Any
suggestions would be grand, thanks.

cfset tentativeId = 123

cfloop list=a,b,c index=theIndex
cfoutput
cfset Request.arrayOfIds_#theIndex# = ArrayNew(1)
cfset temp = ArrayAppend(Evaluate(Request.arrayOfIds_#theIndex#),
tentativeId)
IsArray: #IsArray(Evaluate(Request.arrayOfIds_#theIndex#))#br
temp: #temp#br

Creating the array isn't the problem, adding items to it is.  Am I

bracket notation, still can't add to it.

Using CFTRY - CFCATCH to rollback database tranaction

2002-02-04 Thread mark kecko

Is there a way to use CFTRY - CFCATCH to rollback all database tranactions
within given block?  In otherwords, If I'm running 4 update queries and the
first three are ok but the last one fails I want to roll them all back.  Is
there a better way to do this than usign CFTRY - CFCATCH?

Ben,

We send out 18,000 multi-part newsletters at a time.  Our open rate is about
50% for HTML so 9,000 people are opening the HTML newsletter.  There are
also around 50 which click back on the text version of the newsletter, which
is simply a sentence long with a link, so if people want to read the
newsletter and they get text they have to click back.  We do this about five
times a day and these are our averages.  HTH.
