cfdump is not even a tag you *can* restrict in ColdFusion. It is not in 
the list of tags and functions that can be restricted in the CF 
Administrator.

cfdump throwing an error on some datatypes when CreateObject("java", ) 
is disabled is an undocumented side-effect of the way cfdump is 
implemented: cfdump is just a customtag. It functions like any other 
customtag and can use the same CFML as your code can use. (Try it: 
replace dump.cfm in the cftags folder by your own customtag and see what 
happens.)


I think you have unrealistic expectations of your host if you expect 
them to document behaviour Adobe itself hasn't documented (which is why 
I suggest http://adobe.com/go/wish/).

Re: Hosting Announcement

2008-07-13 Thread Mike Kear
Am I being too forward then to suggest another low cost alternative,
that DOESNT ban CFDUMP?   In fact there are only a very few
tags/functions we dont enable.   There are some that are disabled by
default, but if you want them, we'll enable them for you, after
setting up a sandbox for you.

We're not as low-cost as that offer was, but then we dont disable
essential tags like CFDUMP.

I agree that normally you wouldnt need to debug on a production
system, but as you say, William, what if something DOES go wrong on
the production box?   How do you debug the problem without all the
debugging tools.   On a production box you turn off the robust error
messages, so CFDUMP is very useful for quickly debugging problems.
Yes you can get by without - using CFTRY/CFCATCH to grab the errors
and sending them to yourself by email, but sometimes a CFDUMP is the
quick way to see what's going on if you are on a shared server.

Have a look at http://afpwebworks.com and see if that won't help you
out.  (Currently showing our server is CF7 but in fact new accounts
are going on a CF8 box, and we're changing everyone to CF8 in teh next
week or so)

Their technical support knows and knew that the cfdump tag was not
permitted, regardless of how it functions behind the scenes.  They should
have shown that in their advertised list of tags they don't support.

Of course I have a development environment.  The intention was to build a
quick and easy system that wouldn't necessitate me to replicate everything.
Besides, it isn't unheard of to have to debug a system after launching it to

Most likely they do allow access to the cfdump tag, but cfdump is trying 
to inspect a variable by using a CreateObject("java", ...) internally.

What do you need cfdump for anyway? Don't you have a development 
environment?

Holy Whatevers!!

I just found out (the hard way) that in addition to this:
On the shared ColdFusion servers you will have access to all tags and
functions except for the following:

CF Tags:
CFCOLLECTION
CFCONTENT
CFEXECUTE
CFLOG
CFOBJECT
CFOBJECTCACHE
CFREGISTRY

CF Functions:
SetProfileString
CreateObject(COM)
CreateObject(CORBA)
CreateObject(JAVA)

They don't allow the 'CFDUMP' tag!!

Does any one have any experience with this company?  Is there a 'magic way'
to get them to turn on the 'CFDUMP' tag?

Or are they just SFB to begin and end with??

their base rates look great. would love to hear from others using these hosting 
plans to reliability etc.

have been pretty loyal to nz based companies so far, but lately feel they are 
not that interested in reseller plans etc.

Daily Razor is having a HUGE sale today (July 7).

Whatever plan you choose, you will get 4X the value!!  Want a plan that can 
host 32 websites, choose the starter plan and the 8 domains becomes 32 domains.

I am not affiliated with them (just a customer), so I wouldn't mind if you 
mention me in the comments section, but I don't think I get any credit for 
referrals.

This is a great increase in value.
