Re: Sort by file extension in CFDIRECTORY
It does, unfortunately it doesn't have the file extension as part of the object, so you'll need to add that column to the query object and run through the results separating the file name and filee xtension out to then sort by either column interchangeably. Nick I'd look at putting it into a custom query object and using queries of queries. So loop over the cfdirectory output inserting into a new query object that has file extension as a column and use a call like (filename,listLen(filename,.)-1,.) to retrieve the extension. Once it's stored it's a simple matter of query of queries to sort the results. I'm pretty sure that CFDIRECTORY returns a query object that can directly be sorted using query of queries.

RE: Sort by file extension in CFDIRECTORY
Interesting... You might be able to use a query of queries after you gotten the file list... Or you might recourse the directory to get the extension then do a separate query on each extension. That's an interesting question... I'm going to watch for what others say.

cfdirectory issue
I have some code that's been working for years, but recently starting to act strange. Simple cfdirectory looking in a particular folder and listing out some files. Users are saying there are files in there and when I go in and check, there are! Cfdirectory returns me 0, no errors and DirectoryExists returns no. The strange thing is that nothing changes then suddenly half hr or hr later it starts to see it again. I can't imagine it being a permissions issue since it works intermittently. Any ideas?

Re: cfdirectory issue
First I would check the obvious and verify permissions, you just never know. Is this anything like a directory on a file share? Could just be an availability thing then. Anything new outside of code changes? Patches? Other new software installed on the server? Any other software or process possibly locking the directory? Virus scanning? Some other new code unrelated? Is the directory growing and now has a large number of files or directories, Windows doesn't like that so much pre 2008. My first instinct says that another process is doing something occasionally to the directory or files. Might be good to see some code and what version you are on. Are sandboxes in use? I have seen things like creating a file or directory via CF and then accessing that in the next few lines it doesn't exist yet, but that was previous versions, have not seen that with 10±.

Re: CFDirectory on mapped drives
The ISAPI extensions used by CF... If I used the web connector to tie CF to IIS do you perchance know where those might be? Just now switching over from Apache and kind of blind on stuff like this. Typically, they're in the CF install directory somewhere, in the wsconfig folder.

CFDirectory on mapped drives
I've triple checked that an empty folder on a 2nd server in the same datacenter allows full write permissions for any type of user, and have it mapped from the CF server. But when I run cfdirectory calls, for lists it returns an empty query even if there are subfolders or files there, for rename calls it claims that the target subfolder doesn't exist, and for create calls it simply errors: the specified directory could not be created. Is there some best practice way to set this up with CF? Do I have to configure the windows service of the CF box to run as an identical user to one on the recipient box? If so other than making sure it's an administrator is there anything else I need to do? Thanks guys. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:346178 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: CFDirectory on mapped drives
If you are just using the default installation and running cf as system then you will have problems access network paths. You need to set CF to run under a user account that have network access.

Re: CFDirectory on mapped drives
sorry I didn't read all of your post, I see your final paragraph asking if you must do this, and the answer is yes. however do not run CF as an administrator as this will open up your security and allow every cfm page to run with administrator access, you need to run it as a limited user that can only do what you need it to do. see this security white paper http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/pdfs/coldfusion_8_product_security_brief.pdf Russ On Mon, Jul 11, 2011 at 6:11 PM, Russ Michaels r...@michaels.me.uk wrote: If you are just using the default installation and running cf as system then you will have problems access network paths.

Re: CFDIRECTORY of a mapped network drive
What am I doing wrong here as nothing shows up even with debugging turned on. The S drive is a mapped network drive. If mapped drive is the issue, is there any way around it? By default, there are two problems with using mapped drives from CF. First, CF runs as SYSTEM by default, and SYSTEM has no access to network resources. Second, if you run CF as another user with explicit permissions to a network share, CF can access that network share. But that doesn't mean that CF can access a drive mapping. For that to work, you'd need to log in as the user in question and create a persistent drive mapping. Instead, I'd recommend just accessing the UNC path directly rather than bothering with a drive mapping.

Query of query with cfdirectory
Hi all, The task at hand is to find a series of orphaned folders. I want to delete all folders in a certain directory which do not have a matching DB record. I was wondering if this is possible (or accept any other tips): I have a 'query' which is the result of a cfdirectory action=list. I now would like to find any records in that query that do not exist in the resultset of a second query (this second one is a database query). Is there a way to combine these two queries to get a resultset that just holds those items which do not exist in the second query? I know i could loop and query each record but wondered if there's a more efficient way, maybe a query of two other queries?

RE: Query of query with cfdirectory
Try Googling left outer join in a ColdFusion query of query. If you have the two result sets there, left outer the DB list to the directory list to find items in the directory for which there is no matching database record. As for performance, depending on the size of the result sets (less than 5-6 thousand records), you might get just as much performance by simply looping over the directory list and doing a q of q for each item on the database list. Just try it see how it performs.

CFLOCATION supports a statusCode attribute as of ColdFusion 8 which you can use to return a 301 code instead of the default 302 if needed. -- Justin Scott | GravityFree Member of the Technical Staff 1960 Stickney Point Road, Suite 210 Sarasota | FL | 34231 | 800.207.4431 941.927.7674 x115 | f 941.923.5429 www.GravityFree.com ~| 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:321028 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Re: cfdirectory directory to a another server
Based on that example it is assuming the other server has windows file sharing enabled. You need to setup the other server to have file sharing enabled and then access the share name. This may or may not be the best way to do this. It all depends on your desired level of security.

RE: Is it possible to access network drives with CFDIRECTORY and CFCONTENT
Arden, This is a permissions issue (almost guarantee it). Change the coldfusion service to run as a user in the domain with access to the shares you need to save/read from, and you will be all set. Personally, I create a 'cfUser' or 'coldfusion' user on the domain and give it very specific permissions to anything it needs to access.

The CF7 app needs to be able to access/manage a store of PDF files and display them in the user's browser. Everything works great as long as the PDF files are located in a folder on a drive directly attached to the box on which CF7 is installed, but fails when I try to access the same files located on a mapped network drive. The simple solution would be to put the files on one of the drives on the CF box, but the network guys are fussy about doing that. So any insight on how to access and display the PDF files located on a networked drive would be most helpful. ~| 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:308846 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4

Re: CFDIRECTORY NUL bug
I read about certain names that can't be used for windows directories and file names but I can't seem to locate the information right now. I had to do with legacy DOS commands or something.

Re: url for cfdirectory col name
Sure - you can manipulate any query object using queryAddColum, queryAddRow, querySetCell. Please see the docs. If you wanted to use it in cftable (holy crap - someone uses cftable!) then you would modify the query before you run the cftable.

Re: CFDIRECTORY filter shortcoming
filter=*.jpg|*.gif|*.png No way. As the docs says: One filter can be applied. Only one filter, with ? or * wild characters, A la DOS, or even A la CP/M should I say... But with CFX_ListDir, this will work using attribute EXTENSIONS = *.jpg,*.gif,*.png -- ___ REUSE CODE!

Re: CFDIRECTORY filter shortcoming
I use CFDIRECTORY all the time to scan the image library for various maintenance purposes. I want to read and list only image files. These may be .jpg, .gif, or .png, yet CFDIRECTORY can only filter on one file type. Does anyone know of a way I can extend the file filter and get what I want in a single read? Right now I need to run a CFDIRECTORY for each file type I want and combine outputs. This seems kind of stupid. Thanks Robert B.
