Re: ODBC Problems?
Yes, I agree that if a decent discussion is started about it then it seems like Sean Christian jump right in a get something done. But this guy was taking it way to far! And then starts insulting members and saying that he wants to aggravate us. If the guy had a brain cell and a half he'd realize that we are the people that can help him but instead he starts spewing insults at people. a better logic suggests that if you have an issue then get the others to push the maker to fix it, simple common sense. I'd never before seen a major corporation rethink their pricing/licensing policies just from some posts on a mailing list Exactly! but as I recall when ( I believe it was brook) started that out and throughout the duration of the discussion it was handled fairly pleasantly. A complaint was made and a discussion started MM responded. If I was MM I wouldn't respond to that putz either. hey I realize its just my opinion my opinion was he took it too far. If I was MM I'd give him his money back, cancel his license and send him on his cheerful way:) Maybe Tony could share his half pipe with him and things would chill a bit and he'd get taken care of. dave - Original Message - From: Bud [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2003 7:37 AM Subject: Re: ODBC Problems?

RE: ODBC Problems?
I think that the key here is running CFMX as a named user. I couldn't get it to work when it ran as system. I suspect this is because you're using a trusted connection with your SQL Server ODBC connection. If you use a native SQL Server login, you should be able to run CFMX as whatever you want. (Not that you should run it as SYSTEM anyway, though.)

I am not the ONLY person that has complained about CFMX ODBX Problems, others here have reported the problem as well. Switching to a JDBC driver is not the answer to CFMX ODBC problems. It might be, actually. I would recommend that you try it out, if you have a JDBC driver available. Sure, it might be a pain, but why would you expect ODBC to necessarily work as well from Java through JDBC as it did with no extra middleware layer in CF 5? I got the JDBC driver working.

Maybe if we approach this from a different end we'll hear some good news. --- Matt Robertson, [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com --- ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
RE: ODBC Problems? (RESOLVED)
The only 2 confirmations i needed from this whole post was... 1. Nobody on this list has CFMX ODBC working stable. Well, that's simply not true. I do know of one installation that's using SQL Server 2000 via ODBC with CFMX, because they require trusted connections. It's slow, but it's no less stable than it was with CF 5, from what I've been told. Now, that information is probably pretty useless to you anyway, since they may have less traffic than you, and they're using different ODBC drivers than you.

RE: ODBC Problems?
Sure, but you might want to apply a bit of common sense. Macromedia isn't going to say ODBC connections don't work, but they do say they won't work as well as pure JDBC connections. There is no COMMON Sense to apply here. There is always a place to apply common sense. To my mind, common sense tells me that ODBC may not work as well from a Java application through another layer of middleware as from a non-Java application without another layer of middleware. Everything worked while we were testing CFMX. Obviously..since we didnt see any problems... took it to production.. and everything starts breaking. I take it that your load testing went ok? How does your current usage differ from your load test? There is NO warning in the release notes about an UnStable CFMX ODBC Engine. I guess, by your logic, if there's any problem that anyone encounters with CFMX, the release notes should say WARNING: THIS PRODUCT MAY NOT WORK IN YOUR ENVIRONMENT! Gee, I'm really surprised that the release notes don't say that.

RE: RE: ODBC Problems?
may have it working stable with a completely different database and/or driver set, which won't help you in the least bit. No One has yet confirmed a working stable CFMX ODBC Connection... with any database. Uh, that's not true. I confirmed a working stable CFMX ODBC connection to SQL Server 2000; it's not mine, but a friend's site (U.S. gov't, internal, relatively high-load, using trusted connections because it's required by the security specification). I posted that earlier this afternoon. On the other hand we have had several people report problems with CFMX ODBC...here. So what is the logical conclusion?

I run several testsites in different shared hosting configurations where I demo i18n stuff. Since they include the ability to upload files for others, I have them run in a sandbox. General load is below the noise level, but I have ran stresstests on the server for a weekend and didn't encounter any problems. I have not encountered any stability issues with Sandbox Security. I have reported my share of bugs with CF MX in general, but none that had anything to do with Sandbox Security. I only found a bug with Sandbox Security once, but that was a security issue, not a stability issue and Macromedia has released a patch [1] for that. That is not to say there are no issues: - the fact that limiting the number of connections to a datasource does not work (bug 49409) is more likely to have adverse consequences in a shared hosting scenario as on a dedicated server. - I have not yet seen a shared hosting control panel supporting CF MX. - the inability to flush compiled templates from cache is a pain (you can remove them from disk by examining them for a string containing the original file location, but not from RAM) But none of these are stability issues. If I were to configure CF MX Enterprise Edition I would not hesitate to switch on Sandbox Security even if I don't need it, just for the ability to limit file upload to directories where file execution is not enabled and more of that stuff.

RE: ODBC Problems?
Macromedia does not recommend using ODBC-JDBC bridges, I am just asking why ODBC is used. Well, we never upgraded Production to CF5.0, we ran CF4.5 ENT in Production with Client Access Express for 2 Years. NO Problems whatsoever. We upgraded to CFMX from CF4.5 (kept all configurations) and we started seeing Client Access ODBC Problems, for every connection drop.. our debugging mode..picks up and emails admins...So we know whats goin on. Others here have noted the same problems. If CFMX ODBC is NOT supposed to work, it shouldnt be there in the first place. but it might also be a leftover from a previous CF CFMX ODBC Agent and CFXM ODBX Server are services introduced in CFMX. These services didnt exist in CF5.0 or CF4.5 I really hope someone from Macromedia can explain 1. Why ODBC Connections are dropping in CFMX? 2. Is this a Known/acknowledged Issue? 3.

Re: ODBC Problems?
This is the reason we have those proper channels, such as tech support and the wish list. If you post an issue here, we may not see it, and if we do, we may not get the info needed, or have it logged correctly in the bug base. The people who monitor the wish list and tech support know what info to ask for, and can log it properly in the bug base. So, if you don't want to use those channels, that is fine. But you should not expect to get one on one support from macromedia without going through those channels. mike chambers [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Joe Eugene [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 6:39 PM Subject: RE: ODBC Problems?

RE: ODBC Problems?
I am not the ONLY person that has complained about CFMX ODBX Problems, others here have reported the problem as well. Switching to a JDBC driver is not the answer to CFMX ODBC problems. It might be, actually. I would recommend that you try it out, if you have a JDBC driver available. Sure, it might be a pain, but why would you expect ODBC to necessarily work as well from Java through JDBC as it did with no extra middleware layer in CF 5?

Re: ODBC Problems?
Mike, I would like to hear the official line from Macromedia regarding the stability of CFMX in production environments...especially regarding shared hosting. As I've posted before on this list (and I think you took the info from me to follow up on it and never got back to me), a local ISP that upgraded to CFMX had major issues and were eventually told by Macromedia tech support that CFMX was not stable enough for shared hosting. So is this Macromedia's position or not? I'm not looking to point fingers and start some kind of MM flame war or anything. I simply want to be able to tell my clients the truth...no matter what it is. I personally love CFMX and especially love Flash remoting. No matter what your answer is I will still use theses products (although I may not advise clients to use CFMX if there are still issues). If there are issues, I will simply wait until they are resolved before advising clients to use CFMX. Of course if I get lied to and then incorrectly advise a client to use CFMX I'll be one pissed CF developer ;-) BTW the use proper channels line is getting old. I don't think paying customers should have to pay even more just to make MM's bug tracking system work. Change the system so someone such as yourself can report a bug that you see on lists. The bottom line should be making the product the best it can be and NOT following proper channels. Thanks for reading Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.

RE: ODBC Problems?
Our company came across an issue regarding Oracle stored procedures when we tested an MX upgrade. After some back-and-forth with the SP's themselves - triple-checking parameters and making sure they actually *did* work in the first place, some questions with other CF developers, and some JDBC and JDK upgrades, we registered a ticket with MM tech support, and lo and behold, it's an inherent problem with CFMX's Oracle connectivity. This was a setback for us, as we were hoping to migrate to MX and utilize its features to re-architect our major applications. While we'll have to hold off (and use MX as an ancillary server for now), we did take the initiative to go through the proper channels with MM and get a team assigned to what turned out to be an issue that _will_ be addressed in a future upgrade. This will guarantee this problem won't show up in later releases, and we'll have a guaranteed fix as opposed to a workaround.

Re: ODBC Problems?
On 3/4/03, Michael T. Tangorre penned: I find your post rather brash, and not necessary for this venue. No one is forcing you to use MX. To be fair, CFMX is a VERY frustrating product. I don't even own a copy. I opened an account with Crystal Tech so I could test some applications. I'm sure Crystal Tech, from everything I've heard about them, is very knowledgeable and likely has CFMX optimized as well as possible. But just from testing one application, I've been pulling my hair out, on silly errors that show up on perfectly good code and should not be there. No one forces anyone to upgrade (well, except maybe you know who), but when you purchase a product that is advertised as being a release version and not beta, you have some right to expect a working, somewhat stable product. From the little experience I've had with CFMX, A WORKING, STABLE PRODUCT IT IS NOT! It is FULL of bugs. Some which are just ridiculous and make no sense, like the Insert query problem I posted about earlier. This product should still be deeply in Beta. But it isn't. So if MM is going to take our hard earned money to be their Beta testers, then the least they could do is cheerfully give free support (without asking for a credit card) until the product is ready. heck, I'm still on 4.51 because they never finished getting the bugs out of CF5, like the headers showing up after a cflocation. The whole thing stinks of M$.

As someone who's been on both sides of the tech support fence, I don't think Macromedia has any choice but to use proper channels. It's not as simple as reporting a bug based on second-hand information. What OS are they running? What database are they running? What database driver? What patch level? For anything beyond the most trivial problem, you need a back-and-forth communication between the person having the problem, and the tech support person. It's as simple as that.

Re: ODBC Problems?
BTW the use proper channels line is getting old. I don't think paying customers should have to pay even more just to make MM's bug tracking system work. Change the system so someone such as yourself can report a bug that you see on lists. The bottom line should be making the product the best it can be and NOT following proper channels. As someone who's been on both sides of the tech support fence, I don't think Macromedia has any choice but to use proper channels. It's not as simple as reporting a bug based on second-hand information. What OS are they running? What database are they running? What database driver? What patch level? For anything beyond the most trivial problem, you need a back-and-forth communication between the person having the problem, and the tech support person. It's as simple as that. Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software I hear you, however I'm referring to situations such as this list (and granted there are some ifs involved). -if Mike or someone else from MM sees a potential bug on a list -if they can get the info you laid out Dave (and this can be easily obtained by asking the poster) Then they should be able to get that info into the system. Would anyone hear only consider something a bug if a client called you up and paid you for the honor of reporting it? I think not The bottom line should be using all resources possible to make the product work and work properly and not limiting MM employees to the tech support process for finding and fixing things. Lists like this should be considered a gold mine of information (granted it needs some filtering) and not ignored. my 2 cents...but I hear ya Dave Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.

It might be, actually. I would recommend that you try it out, if you have a JDBC driver available Dave, I got the JDBC driver working.

RE: ODBC Problems?
This product should still be deeply in Beta. But it isn't. So if MM is going to take our hard earned money to be their Beta testers, then the least they could do is cheerfully give free support (without asking for a credit card) until the product is ready I second this as well...i have personally spend hours testing CFMX... Alot of unproductive hours.. and Macromedia wants us to pay to REPORT bugs in CFMX. This is riduculous.

Tangorre penned: I find your post rather brash, and not necessary for this venue. No one is forcing you to use MX. To be fair, CFMX is a VERY frustrating product. I don't even own a copy. I opened an account with Crystal Tech so I could test some applications. I'm sure Crystal Tech, from everything I've heard about them, is very knowledgeable and likely has CFMX optimized as well as possible. But just from testing one application, I've been pulling my hair out, on silly errors that show up on perfectly good code and should not be there. No one forces anyone to upgrade (well, except maybe you know who), but when you purchase a product that is advertised as being a release version and not beta, you have some right to expect a working, somewhat stable product. From the little experience I've had with CFMX, A WORKING, STABLE PRODUCT IT IS NOT! It is FULL of bugs. Some which are just ridiculous and make no sense, like the Insert query problem I posted about earlier. This product should still be deeply in Beta. But it isn't.

Re: ODBC Problems?
MM marketing employees frequently post to the effect that support along the line of installation is free, however will not acknowledge that the channels that when followed remain an exercise in frustration. While you may post what are obvious bugs to a wish list, that is not in reality a bug tracking system. Most importantly, is that for the most part users that are trying to avail themselves of free installation support run up against a stone wall when trying to deal with a non-responsive support system. When you do get a reply from a support request, it will be 1. months late. 2. usually a canned response along the lines of read the documentation. I know I am not alone when I express my own desire to spend no more unproductive time with broken software from MM, along with broken updates when there are tools that are available that are less expensive, more stable, with prompt, attentive support systems. = Douglas White group Manager mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.samcfug.org = - Original Message - From: Mike Chambers [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 8:38 PM Subject: Re: ODBC Problems? | Here you go.

RE: ODBC Problems?
I have the ODBC connector working with a SQL Server database in my development environment. It's the only way we have right now to connect to our SQL Servers as our DBA is loath to enable SQL Server Authentication. We run our CFMX service as a named domain account that has rights to the database. It works fine, albeit, there is very little load on this server and due to the config of the server, we do not load test on it. Specs are CFMX Updater 2, IIS 5.0, Win2k Server (Standard), SQL Server 2000 with SP 2 applied. I think that the key here is running CFMX as a named user. I couldn't get it to work when it ran as system.

The JDBC worked fine so I didn't worry too much further about it, but if I were trying to run Oracle 8i on CFMX Pro (I was) in a production environment (fortunately I was not, so I ran my tests on an MX dev edition) then I'd really have my work cut out for me trying to find another set of drivers. --- Matt Robertson, [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com --- -- Original Message -- From: Tony Weeg [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] date: Tue, 4 Mar 2003 22:24:09 -0500 odbc socket, I use it on winXp, IIS, cfmx on my dev laptop, is this the config you are talking about ...tony Tony Weeg Senior Web Developer UnCertified Advanced ColdFusion Developer Information System Design Navtrak, Inc.

The account that it's running as does have admin rights on the dev machine (it's a member of the local administrators group) but it's a domain account. I haven't had the time to work up the proper security configuration for it to work as a less priveledged user. Although, I would imagine that it can be done.

RE: ODBC Problems?
I have the ODBC connector working with a SQL Server database in my development environment. We havent noticed any CFMX ODBC Connection problems in our development box either.. this box has no Load.. just 3 developers on this box. Our tests on development box..didnt have any problems.. thats why we took CFMX to Production with this configuration. However.. as soon as we got some load on CFMX in production... CFMX ODBC Connections started dropping... Stop and Re-start CFMX ODBC Services and everything starts working for an hour under load and then starts dropping connections again. I think that the key here is running CFMX as a named user. I couldn't get it to work when it ran as system. I am not sure, if this had any relevance.

if I recall correctly. Was trying to use SQL Server (latest MSDE), Oracle (9i, I think), mySQL and Access via odbc and couldn't get it to work. Interesting, Thanks Matt. Ok, looks like we have a problem with the CFMX ODBC Sever Engine. Can someone from MM Product Team clarify whats happening? Is this an MM aware issue, any patches available?

I couldn't get reliable performance on dev or live boxes, using both Pro and Developer (running as Enterprise before its 30 days were up), unless I used the native drivers. Got the error you described exactly, if I recall correctly. Was trying to use SQL Server (latest MSDE), Oracle (9i, I think), mySQL and Access via odbc and couldn't get it to work. In fairness this was in a pre-update initial release of cfmx. --- Matt Robertson, [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com --- ~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribeforumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
