if siteminder is a service, (never used it) check out cfx_servicecontrol @

Subject: SiteMinder Service Status


It finally worked. Not on my system though. I copied the files to another
system and it worked. I do see a list of services that are running on the
server.

However, what happenns if the SitMinder service crashes unexpectedly, and as
you might know this happenns very often. Would tList.exe still list the
service? My guess is it would, because the SiteMinder
Authentication/Authorization service status would still be "started" even
though the service has crashed. I need a script to monitor the siteMinder
services and send alerts when the service is not responding. My current
solution is to use the cfauthenticate coldfusion tag. The script calls the
tag and returns a success or failure message. However, I've noticed that
even after stopping the SiteMinder services(s), the status message does not
change to "failed", that's because coldfusion caches the SiteMinder service
cache. Flushing the cache would slow down the performance, but how else can
I get the upto the minute status of the service? I would really appreciate
your help

yes I do get the right output when I run it from the command line. I don't know why I 
don't see any output when I run the code.

Do you get the right output if you run tlist from the command 
line? Because it does work for me: http://145.94.154.26/tlist.cfm

I installed the support tools from the win2k CD. Passed the correct path to the 
cfexecute tag.

 
 
 
#processList#
 
#isRunning#

processList outputs nothing.
isRunning always returns "0" even when the SiteMinder service is started. Any ideas 
why this is happenning?

Actually, with Win2K it is on the CD under /support/tools. You 
should check out the other goodies there as well.

Use cfexecute + list.exe from the Windows NT Resource Kit to list 
all running processes.

Does anyone know how to programatically test if the
SiteMinder Authentication/Authorization service is
running. I'm currently using the cfauthenticate tag to
do this but even after stopping the services
ColdFusion thinks SiteMinder is still running, I guess
because coldfusion caches the SiteMinder policy.

I want my ColdFusion script to be able to correctly
display the SiteMinder service status. Is there a way
other than using the cfauthenticate tag to test if the
SiteMinder service is running. BTW I'm using CF5
