RE: cfchart not working on new server

2005-06-12 Thread Matthew Walker
Hi Jared,

Thanks for the help.

Yes, they're being created correctly. I can clear the server's
c:\cfusionmx7\charting\cache folder, visit this page
http://www.christchurchnz.net/chart.cfm then download and view the generated
chart in a browser. So they're definitely being generated and they're not
some weird non-browser-compatible format.

There's nothing in the CF logs -- but that's probably right as CF thinks
it's all working; it doesn't know the browser's never retrieving the image,
or at least it doesn't know why the browser's never retrieving it. 

There are entries in the IIS logs. They look like this: 

2005-06-13 00:00:37 W3SVC1171077089 CCM 203.167.250.62 GET /chart.cfm - 80 -
202.0.37.177 HTTP/1.1
Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.1;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322) -
200 0 0 16710 1146

Or: 

Date2005-06-13
Time00:00:37
s-sitename  W3SVC1171077089
s-computername  CCM
s-ip203.167.250.62
cs-method   GET
cs-uri-stem /chart.cfm
cs-uri-query-
s-port  80
cs-username -
c-ip202.0.37.177
cs-version  HTTP/1.1
cs(User-Agent)
Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.1;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322)
cs(Referer) -
sc-status   200
sc-substatus0
sc-win32-status 0
sc-bytes16710
cs-bytes1146

So that looks OK to me. I note sc-bytes says 16710, while the file size is
18577 bytes. Don't know if that is meaningful. I don't actually know what
these figures are, but I'm guessing sc-bytes is the amount of data sent from
the server and cs-bytes is the amount sent from the client. 

Curiously, if I do as you say and visit the address image:
http://www.christchurchnz.net/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm?graphCache=wc50graphID=Im
ages/100010.JPG then I get garbage that looks like it could be a jpg. But if
I download it, graphics software won't open the file. I'm wondering if it's
getting truncated. 

If I try uploading the image I've downloaded earlier from the
c:\cfusionmx7\charting\cache folder, then I get the following in the log
file: 
2005-06-13 00:21:52 W3SVC1171077089 CCM 203.167.250.62 GET /15.jpg - 80
- 202.0.37.177 HTTP/1.1
Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.1;+SV1;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322) -
200 0 0 1 1147

Which has what I'd think is an appropriate number for sc-bytes (i.e.
slightly bigger than the file size rather than slightly smaller). That's
about all I can figure out though.

Matthew, you said these image files were being created correctly, right? Do 
they look like they should even if they're not being sent back to the 
browser? Have you checked (or had the host check) windows and CF error logs?

There should be something. If the issue was the result of a headless Win 
install, chances are that the graphing subsystem would fail during CFMX 
bootstrap... that's how it works on Linux, and also the primary cause of 
CFCHART issues on linux. People fail to understand that CFMX needs the basic

X libraries to get cfchart to work.

If you do a view source after hitting a page that's got a CFChart in it, you

should see some URL information that's used to transfer the images/movies 
from the Chart servlet to the browser... trying hitting that URL alone and 
seeing what error message you get. Go from there, paying particular 
attention to paths, virtual or otherwise, that are missing or incorrect.

We had exactly the same problem as Matthew did and creating that file and

 Allan:

 Regarding #2 below, I assume you mean create a virtual directory of /CFIDE
 that points to CFIDE in the system?

 CF mappings on Standard are server-wide, and they're server-wide on
 Enterprise unless you're using Sandboxing to lock them down. If you create
a
 virtual directory, all your servers will be able to hit
 http://my.url.com/cfide/administrator/index.cfm, whereas using a mapping
 enables just directory access without exposing CFIDE in the webroot of the
 application. Having the files accessible from the cfchart tag should only
 need the mapping because it relies on the accessibility of the files, not
on
 being able to use them in a browser. And if you're using mappings, you
only
 need 1 per CF instance, barring any sandboxing.

 Also, anything you need universally can go in {cfhome}\wwwroot because
 that's basically a universal mapping. If you put CFIDE in it, beware,
 though...by default it will be available to the browser from all sites,
all
 URLs connected to that CF instance via a webserver connector.

 Now JrunScripts is a different matter, because for some reason that's
always
 a virtual directory... when you create it (in each site that will be
 accessing CF), you're going to need to edit the properties and add the
Jrun
 Server Filter in the ISAPI filters tab and in the Virtual Directory
 properties tab for the directory click Remove against the application
 attributes and uncheck Read.

 If you check your wwwroot/web-inf/web.xml file, you'll see that
 GraphData.cfm is a servlet mapping, so adding a CF template to /cfide
 wouldn't do much. It's the same as IDE.cfm, which is the servlet mapping
for
 RDS... these can be executed from a browser via the URL specified, but
 they're trapped by Jrun and mapped out to specific servlets for special
 handling. It's basically Jrun spoofing a CFM template to the CF server.

 Matthew, you said these image files were being created correctly, right?

Re: SPAM-LOW: Re: cfchart not working on new server

2005-06-11 Thread Jared Rypka-Hauer - CMG, LLC
Actually this is starting to make sense...

If you add /CFIDE as a virtual dir and add GraphData.cfm to it, then IIS 
won't balk as per the other message in this thread (can't recall who posted 
it), but will allow the URL to be executed. Then, since the URL is actually 
a Jrun servlet mapping, Jrun itself never tries to execute the physical file 
because the servlet mapping fires.

So by adding a virtual directory of CFIDE and adding that cfm template, 
you're satisfying IIS to let it pass the URL along to Jrun... which then 
handles the call without ever even looking at the physical files.

If I were you, I'd fix the issue outlined in the message posted about the 
IIS issue not executing missing files rather than adding a CFIDE virtual 
directory to all your sites...

Just my 2 cents.

Laterz!

RE: SPAM-LOW: Re: cfchart not working on new server

2005-06-11 Thread James Holmes
The poster said that the option for chekcing for files was already
unselected, so that's not the issue.

I checked the URL the original post gave, 

http://www.christchurchnz.net/chart.cfm, 

and the image location therein:

http://www.christchurchnz.net/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm?graphCache=wc50graphI
D=Images/100015.JPG 

which returns a page that prompts to open or download rather than being
processed by CF properly (as per the usual behaviour for a webserver
connector issue). Take out the URL vars

http://www.christchurchnz.net/CFIDE/GraphData.cfm 

and (correctly) the page provides a 500 error about an error in the
graphing engine, so the Servlet mapping is already working correctly.

This one has me stumped for the moment.

Re: cfchart not working on new server

2005-06-10 Thread Nick de Voil
 We have recently had three CF7/IIS2003 servers set up for us at a third
 party hosting company. These are brand new installs on brand new
 machines. All is well except that cfchart is not working for us. It
 works fine for us on our local CF7/IIS2003 machine. We've been unable to
 spot the difference between the setups.

Have they got the same graphics card? We once had a weird problem with
charts not working - on the original version of CFMX I think - which we
eventually traced to the graphics card.

What you have to do is.

1. Create the file CFIDE/GraphData.cfm (Put a comment only in it)
2. Create a mapping for EACH site to CFIDE (C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE)
and 
JRunScripts (C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1)
3. Restart CFMX server and Bob should be your Uncle.

they're trapped by Jrun and mapped out to specific servlets for special 
handling. It's basically Jrun spoofing a CFM template to the CF server.

Matthew, you said these image files were being created correctly, right? Do 
they look like they should even if they're not being sent back to the 
browser? Have you checked (or had the host check) windows and CF error logs? 
There should be something. If the issue was the result of a headless Win 
install, chances are that the graphing subsystem would fail during CFMX 
bootstrap... that's how it works on Linux, and also the primary cause of 
CFCHART issues on linux. People fail to understand that CFMX needs the basic 
X libraries to get cfchart to work.

If you do a view source after hitting a page that's got a CFChart in it, you 
should see some URL information that's used to transfer the images/movies 
from the Chart servlet to the browser... trying hitting that URL alone and 
seeing what error message you get. Go from there, paying particular 
attention to paths, virtual or otherwise, that are missing or incorrect.

Good luck!

 What you have to do is.
 
 1. Create the file CFIDE/GraphData.cfm (Put a comment only in it)
 2. Create a mapping for EACH site to CFIDE (C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE)
 and
 JRunScripts (C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1)
 3. Restart CFMX server and Bob should be your Uncle.

cfchart not working on new server

2005-06-09 Thread Matthew Walker
We have recently had three CF7/IIS2003 servers set up for us at a third
party hosting company. These are brand new installs on brand new
machines. All is well except that cfchart is not working for us. It
works fine for us on our local CF7/IIS2003 machine. We've been unable to
spot the difference between the setups. 

 

We are running the test example listed at the end of this post. It
doesn't run for any format. You can see the result here:
http://www.christchurchnz.net/chart.cfm

 

I have looked in c:\cfusionmx7\charting\cache\
http://www.christchurchnz.net/chart.cfm  and found that the jpg files
are indeed getting generated in there. We have mappings set up on both
servers: /CFIDE = D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE although graphdata.cfm
(which shows up in the image source) isn't a physical file as far as I
can tell so I'm guessing that  mapping doesn't make any difference.

 

Any ideas where I should look? 

 

The sample we're testing:

 

cfchart format=jpg

chartwidth=400

chartheight=300

seriesplacement=stacked

show3d=true

 

 

cfchartseries type=bar seriesLabel=January

cfchartdata item=Books value=60/

Re: cfchart not working on new server

2005-06-09 Thread Ray Champagne
Hey Matt:

I recently had a similar problem, and I wrote to my hosting company, 
this was their response:

===
Thank you for using Intermedia Technical Support.

This is due to the check that file exists option that is set in IIS 
for 'bigbugz' Web server. If you want us to UNcheck this option and make 
your CFGRAPH script working, we would ask you to send us a request 
along with verification of your identity (the last 5 digits and 
expiation date of credit card to which your account is billed), so that 
we could turn this option off. However, please be advised that you will 
NOT t be able to use custom 404 errors once this option is changed.


This is because CFGRAPH makes a call to /CFGraphingPage.cfm, passing 
parameters of the graph that's displayed. However, the 
CFGraphingPage.cfm template doesn't actually exist. This isn't a problem 
with ColdFusion, as it seems to look for this request. However, if IIS 
checks to see whether or not the file exists before handing it to 
ColdFusion, it will obviously fail (since it doesn't exist, so 
ColdFusion never sees it).
===

Maybe that will help you?  Beware, tho, this was CF6.1, not 7, but it 
might point you in the right direction.

Thanks Dave. Tried it: made no difference. 

I suspect this makes no difference because the GraphData.cfm file isn't a

 cfchart tags and I was thinking they were using part of the 
 flex engine which would need that cfide file in there.

Actually, the existence of /CFIDE/GraphData.cfm is irrelevant with most web
servers, I think, because CF automatically detects that URL pattern whether
the file exists or not, and processes it as a graphing request before the
web server gets a chance to look for the file on the filesystem.

was thinking they were using part of the flex engine which would need that
cfide file in there.

 outta curiosity, have you tried a flash form on the dev server yet?

Thanks Dave. Tried it: made no difference. 

I suspect this makes no difference because the GraphData.cfm file isn't a
real file anyway so the mappings don't matter.

not sure this will work but seems though you should put a copy or mapping to
the cfide folder in the root of every site on cfmx7.

Subject: cfchart not working on new server 

We have recently had three CF7/IIS2003 servers set up for us at a third
party hosting company. These are brand new installs on brand new
machines. All is well except that cfchart is not working for us. It
works fine for us on our local CF7/IIS2003 machine. We've been unable to
spot the difference between the setups. 

We are running the test example listed at the end of this post. It
doesn't run for any format. You can see the result here:
http://www.christchurchnz.net/chart.cfm

I have looked in c:\cfusionmx7\charting\cache\
 and found that the jpg files
are indeed getting generated in there. We have mappings set up on both
servers: /CFIDE = D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\CFIDE although graphdata.cfm
(which shows up in the image source) isn't a physical file as far as I
can tell so I'm guessing that mapping doesn't make any difference.

Any ideas where I should look? 

The sample we're testing:

 chartwidth=400

 chartheight=300

 seriesplacement=stacked

 show3d=true

RE: cfchart not working on new server

I was just thinking that tmaybe the flex engine was now processing cfcharts and 
if that was the case then it would make sense. I did run his code after 
renaming CFIDE and it still worked, so as usual I was wrong, lol

Actually, the existence of /CFIDE/GraphData.cfm is irrelevant with most web
servers, I think, because CF automatically detects that URL pattern whether
the file exists or not, and processes it as a graphing request before the
web server gets a chance to look for the file on the filesystem.
