Name of uploaded file before cffile
Is it possible to get the name of the client's file before doing cffile? I am testing for file size by doing a cfdirectory and filtering on the neoX.tmp file name provided in the form field. If the file size is too large, I would like to tell the user which file (this is a multiple upload form) was denied. I know I could upload the file to a temporary location and then move it, but that is more than I want and defeats the purpose in a way. I'm pretty sure the answer is no, but just wanted to double-check.

RE: CFFILE - alternatives?
>>>- http://www.radinks.com/upload/ >>>- http://swfupload.mammon.se/ >> OK - I like the swfupload best. SWFupload still uses the HTTP method of uploading and if your web server or CF server is limited then you have the same problems. You will still need CFFile to accept the upload. The default settings on the RadLinks product works much the same (HTTP) as the other and you will still be limited. However, unlike the other product it does allow for FTP file transfers but you will need an FTP server on your web server AND access via cold fusion (CFFile) to the upload directory to "import" the uploaded files into your application. It should be noted that FTP transfers from the general uneducated public can be fraught with other issues like over zealous personal firewalls blocking port 21 and their need to download and approve the Java applet.

CFFILE vs FTP
I am using CFFILE to upload a 2.5M file. When doing this, something is timing out. I've been to the host site and my ISP. Neither are finding a problem. What is interesting - if I FTP a 23M file using FileZilla I have no problem. So why am I struggling with a 2.5M file using CFFILE?

For some odd reason there seems to be a problem using CFFILE with my host site when trying to upload files larger than 1.5M.

Re: cffile action="copy" nameconflict="in_your_wildest_dreams"
I won't pretend to speak for Adobe - but the thinking MAY have been - with the upload action, you have no idea what the file is - therefore name conflicts may occur more often. With a copy you _do_ know the file. As a general FYI, I'm sure you know there are multiple ways to handle this problem yourself. You can use a UUID-based file name, which is ugly, but unique, or if you can't copy over foo.txt because it exists, try foo1, foo2, fooN until it doesn't exist.

cffile action="copy" nameconflict="in_your_wildest_dreams"
So, I admittedly haven't used cffile that much in the past-just here and there. I was fiddling with something today and came to a startling revelation (which I'm sure most of you already know): You can't use the nameconflict attribute with action="copy". Well you can-it's simply ignored. I was like, "WTF, over?" I made my usual assumption that there is a REALLY good reason and I just didn't know what it was-- so I Googled for a while hoping to uncover this eye-opening gem of truth. Yeah, nothing. Absolutely nothing. Oh, there's a Livedocs comment here and there where someone mentions it, and SEVERAL code examples where people illegally tried to use nameconflict with action="copy", but nowhere did I find any explanation of WHY copying files always overwrites destination files of the same name. The benefit of being able to control name conflicts when copying files seems so obvious. I mean, how dare CF assume I wish to always overwrite when copying? :-) And then they tease me by having a nameconflict attribute which only works for upload. Yes, yes, I am familiar with fileexists() and all that, but I use CF to make things easier not harder. What's worse, is no error is thrown when you try to use nameconflict with action="copy". Have you ever accidentally typed something like: Whoa, big error message in your face. But no-not with cffile. It just silently ignores the nameconflict attribute leading you to believe its being used. So please fill me in.

For security reasons, there are lots of restrictions with file uploads. You actually have to submit a form with a file upload field, which is why you need a separate frame/iframe for the form if you want to remain within the same interface.

Re: Help with File Upload: AJAX and CFFILE
You can't do this in the way you are attempting. You're not actually
submitting the form, you're just passing a string. If you Google around,
you'll see that all of the AJAX file upload libraries use iFrames (such as
http://www.webtoolkit.info/ajax-file-upload.html). I'd try to follow that
approach. You might also check to see if there are any Prototype or
Scriptaculous plugins that will do this for you.

Help with File Upload: AJAX and CFFILE
I'm having a problem trying to use AJAX (with the Prototype framework) with
the cffile tag to upload files to the server. The problem seems to be
related to the fact that the enctype attribute of the upload form must be
specified with the value of multipart/form-data. That specification requires
that the form be posted (as opposed to "get"). Also, the cffile tag
attribute filefield accepts the value entered into the file form field but
when I use AJAX to pass the value to the action page with the cffile tag it
does not work.
Here is my form:
That is simple. Here is my AJAX (also very simple):
Event.observe(window, 'load', init, false);
function init() {
Event.observe('upload_form', 'submit', uploadNow);
}
function uploadNow(e){
$("upload").disabled=false;
$("statusmsg").innerHTML = '';
var pars = 'fpath=' + $F('filepath');
var myAJAX = new Ajax.Request('action.cfm', {
method:'post',
onSuccess:function(){
$('status').innerHTML = 'File Upload Complete';
},
parameters: pars
});
};
All that does is when the upload_form form button is clicked it runs the
uploadNow() JavaScript function. The uploadNow() function does some display
(a sexy ajax loader animated gif), then it assigns the form field "filepath"
to a variable called "fpath" and then posts that variable to the action
page.
Here is the action page:
#ustatus.serverFileName#
The cffile tag looks for a filefield called "fpath". For some reason it is
not getting that. I also tried changing the AJAX to pass the variables with
a method of "get" instead of "post" and then added the following to the top
of the action page:
This does not work either. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this to
work?

Re: CFFILE copy to another server - (Access is denied).
You should probably create a specific ColdFusion service account and assign to s group on the domain and start ColdFusion up with that (no doubt starts as Local System now as most people never change that). That way you can control the access that service across the network.

James, You have got a Windows sharing problem there with you permissions. That is not a problem with ColdFusion. There is a setting for called mode which can be set to 777 for Linux systems but this does not apply for you. Check your shared drive in both machines. Ravi.

Re: Renaming Files with CFFILE
> The last I saw in this category was somebody who absolutely wanted to > enter several values in a text field using the Enter key in order to enter > several lines... Mine was a client with an admin for their image gallery. It was set up for a main image and a thumb. First round was my mistake. I trusted the client. WRONG!! I showed them how to use the system and how to properly size the images for use. The input fields *clearly* stated that the thumbs needed to be 100x150px and the main images could be no wider than 550px. A week later, I get a phone call asking why their site isn't working and I find they've placed 20 or so full sized 3.5 to 6 meg images in as thumbnails! Their index page was weighing in at over 100 megs at this point! I should have know better... So, I rewrote it with the proper validation and file size checking as it should be. I immediately get an angry phone call - The admin isn't accepting our images!!". "Have you sized them the way I showed you in your photo editing software?" "We don't have time to edit anything. Make it so we can just put whatever we want in." I went back in again and added imageCFC to take care of that. Which seemed to be working pretty good. Another angry phone call. "Out thumbnails are DISTORTED!!!" "Have you sized them correctly?" "We told you we wanted the application to do that!" "Well, they're getting sized to 100x150, so if you put something larger in there, at least the ratio needs to be 2/3 or it's going to proportioned incorrectly. I originally showed you how to use the application and you've got image editing software to do your sizing and optimization for you. You'll be much happier with the results if you do it that way." "We just need to be able to export directly out of the camera. Got no time to fool with anything else. We've asked you to fix it. So FIX IT!" I never could get the imageCFC "crop" function to work correctly for me, and even if i had, they wouldn't have been happy with how the crop was working. Because of this and a number of other issues with the client, I finally "fired" them. Couldn't take any more... ~| ColdFusion MX7 by Adobe® Dyncamically transform webcontent into Adobe PDF with new ColdFusion MX7.

Re: Delete contents of a directory cfdirectory or cffile
I think at the end of your cffile you'll need #Files[i].filename# although I'm not sure if that's the name of the column in the Files query. The best way to figure it out is to dump your query var "Files" and see what it produces.

Thanks all for replying, Matt, that's what I was looking for. I remember it from WACK but couldn't get google to locate it for me. I believe the timeout setting of cfexecute was working all along.

You could do a cffile check for the existence of the file (inside a try/catch) in a loop with a limit to make sure the file is there before doing the read. > I would have though by placing a timeout on cfexecute, the remainder of the > script would hold off before running it's stuff.

have this script:
tempBylawPath = #ExpandPath("../tempBylaws")#;
currentBylawPath = #ExpandPath("../Bylaws")#;
archiveBylawPath = #ExpandPath("../ArchiveBylaws")#;
I dumped out the source and the destination and they show as valid paths,
and the source is a valid path and filename that exists. But I am getting an
error that says Attribute validation error in CFFILE. So what gives?
The server is a Windows 2K3 server running CFMX 7.2.

I think you'd be better off handling the renaming of files after the uploading, perhaps in a separate process. You might even handle this using something other than CF, such as a Windows Script (since you're on Windows, after all).

Looping over (CFFILE action=update and rename)
We've a problem with Java Applet calling CFFILE action="upload" and Rename many times. The applet enables the user to collect together a bunch of images and then calls a CFM page for each. The CFM page uploads, then renames, and creates thumbnails. This applet ran great on CF 4.5 Windows 2000 Server but hangs up on CF MX7 Windows 2003 Server. It seems the problem comes between the upload and the rename.. I've tested using 11 images... 2 sets of (3 small followed by 1 large) which is then followed by 3 small. If I comment out the rename-and-create-thumbnail part, all goes well. But as soon as I add back the rename, not all images "make it". I put an exclusive lock around the rename hoping that would do the job.. but it doesn't. Can't really put the lock around the upload and rename combined .. would be tricky to estimate the appropriate time. Anyone have any suggestions ?

Re: Which type of lock is best for cffile rename
Paul's hash method works well for that too (and can potentially make the lock name a little more manageable, depending on the length of the file path). The double lock or something similar would be necessary, since we are dealing with two files that need to be locked (the old name and the new). I haven't put time into working out if it's theoretically possible to get a deadlock with the double lock technique in this situation though.
