IIS 6.0 HTTP/1.1 - 1.0 Problem!!
Morning all, A group of users are accessing one of our sites behind a firewall, and the said site has recently been moved to a cfmx server on IIS 6. They access through a 'SRP' server which sends all requests with a HTTP/1.0 header, but our new server does not seem to like this and responds with a 'Bad Request' message with a HTTP1.1 header. How do we configure our new server to accept HTTP/1.0 header requests and respond using the same??

Pinging servers from within Coldfusion?
Hi all, I'm sending SMS messages to a provider using CFHTTP. They have supplied me with two gateway addresses, so I've built in a bit of logic to send to another gateway if the first one is not reachable, which works fine. I was thinking though would it possible to ping each server before performing the actual HTTP POST to determine which one responds the fastest and save the extra time would be incurred as CFHTTP timeouts one attempted POST. I know there is a timeout setting in CFHTTP, but thought it would be more efficient to determine which host is more responsive without having to timeout a connection...

Coldfusion MX on SuSe? (And ideally MySQL...)
Hi All, I've got a (fairly beefy) server sitting upstairs working as a router for the cable connection we've got. I thought to myself, why don't I set this up as a dev server for my CFMX apps? The problem is, it's a SuSe linux distro, and I know next to nothing about setting up CFMX on unix, or integrating apache and MySQL with it. Basically I'm asking if any one has got any advice, or a step-by-step idiots guide on the web would be useful. And of course, it'd be handy to know if CFMX & suse & mysql & apache actually works! At a later stage I'd like to run PHP - can this integrate into my CFMX setup without the two crossing swords?

RE: SQL query style (WAS: SQL search query)
James, Not sure about the join fashion trend (I use the WHERE clause), but I'm pretty sure using cfqueryparam increases query speeds and improves security (from unautorised users: cfqueryparam Verifies the data type of a query parameter and, for DBMSs that support bind variables, enables ColdFusion to use bind variables in the SQL statement. Bind variable usage enhances performance when executing a cfquery statement multiple times. This tag is nested within a cfquery tag, embedded in a query SQL statement. If you specify optional parameters, this tag performs data validation. Macromedia recommends that you use the cfqueryparam tag within every cfquery tag, to help secure your databases from unauthorized users. >From http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/6.1/htmldocs/tags-b20.htm -Original Message- From: James Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 June 2004 11:47 am To: CF-Talk Subject: SQL query style (WAS: SQL search query) While we are on the subject I have noticed recently that more and ore people are joining tables using the... FROM table1 x JOIN table2 y ON x.ID = y.ID And I am wondering if there is a reason for this. Sure I use this syntax for my outer joins but inner joins I still do the old fashioned way in the where clause, for example FROM table1 x, table2 y WHERE x.ID = y.ID This has the added benefit of taking the place of the 'WHERE 0=0' line we recently discussed. What are the benefits of one form of inner join over the other or is it just today's SQL fashion trend? Secondly I notice more and more use of the cfqueryparam tag, what is wrong with simply using WHERE x.ID = #form.id# AND y.var = '#url.string#' type formatting? I have been doing this for about 5 years now and have NEVER found a need for the cfqueryparam tag, I just find it makes the code harder to read.

Include a CFMODULE with CFHTMLHEAD?
Hi everyone, I'd like to include a _javascript_ validation bunch of functions in the header using CFHTMLHEAD. Problem is, this _javascript_ is called normally using CFMODULE (Attributes have to set certain JS variables). Is there a way to include the returned contents of the CFMODULE (the _javascript_) in the HTML head using CFHTMLHEAD?

Using Application scope to name DB tables?
Is it generally frowned upon to use the application scope (defined in Application.cfm) to name SQL tables in queries? Will this affect perfomance at all? Any other issues?

Multiple SQL queries in one CFquery?
Afternoon all, Basically I've got three cfqueries in a transaction which I think can be combined into one - and therefore making the database do the hard work instead of CF. I'm using Oracle 8i by the way. What I'd like to do is this: SELECT X, Y, Z FROM TABLE WHERE Z = 2 IF RECORD COUNT = 0 -- Record count of prev. SELECT statement INSERT INTO TABLE VALUES (1, 2, 3) ELSE -- RECORD COUNT GTE 1 UPDATE TABLE SET X = 1 Y = 2 Z = 3 END IF Is this possible in Oracle 8i & CF 5.0?

Application logging & normalisation?
Hi all, Just like your thoughts on this. I've got an application well on the way, with a fully normalised & relational (we'll say it is for arguments sake!) Oracle database running the show underneath. I've got a db table dedicated to keeping logs of the activity this application will produce, which in keeping with the relational model has about 5 links to other tables. Bearing in mind this log table will store a significant amount of data when the applications fully operational - and the data will act as an audit trail - do you recommend: a) Keep the table relational with the rest of the database (5 table links, potential for slow querying to produce reports) b) Have the table as a 'dump' whereby all data except the primary key is inserted and there are not relational links (faster querying for reports) c) Any other suggestions?

Mike, Thanks, I'm making progress now with CFHTTP and CFHTTPPARAM.

Hi Rob, why not just use a cached query? it is essentially doing the same thing, but is easier to code/read, and allows you to set a different timeout for each query. ___ Pete Freitag http://www.cfdev.com/ Author of the CFMX Developers Cookbook http://www.petefreitag.com/bookshelf/ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

Better method for counting records?
Hi all, I've got a main looping through a set of records - say 15 at a time - and within that loop I've got 3 SQL queries performing a count on how many associated records there are for that particular record in the main loop. Kind of like a forum index page to give how many threads, posts etc there are for each forum. i.e. (rough code to give you an idea of what I mean): select * from tablemain #SectionName# select count(case_id) As ThisCount1 from table1 where x = '#mainquery.SectionName#' #countquery1.ThisCount1# select count(case_id) As ThisCount2 from table2 where x = '#mainquery.SectionName#' #countquery2.ThisCount2# select count(case_id) As ThisCount3 from table3 where x = '#mainquery.SectionName#' #countquery3.ThisCount3# My question is, is there a more efficient method for doing this kind of thing? As the tables I am accessing have 1,000s of rows - possibly millions - the page takes a significant amount of time finish processing. I could remove the record counts altogether, but it's preferable for it to remain. Cheers, Rob [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
