Re: CF9's cfmail remove attribute not working at Crystal Tech
Thanks, Russ. Interesting. I've always ruled out using CF's temp directory for security reasons. I'm on shared hosting at CT. If I'm generating PDF invoices and account statements for customers, seems like I don't want them sitting around in the temp directory where other people on the same box could get into them. That's why I always have managed my own temp directory in my dir tree. Make sense? Or do you think there's a better way? ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:344225 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

well if you are storing the attachments within your own webspace, then why not just have a schedule that cleans them up each night, then you wont have to worrk about deleting them before they been sent.

CF9's cfmail remove attribute not working at Crystal Tech
I just spent an hour working with a tech at Crystal Tech diagnosing an email problem which ended up with me realizing that the very convenient remove attribute that is new to CF9's cfmail tag will not work in their environment. The reason for this is that they don't use CF's built-in mail client, instead handing off to SmarterMail. So although CF believes an email has left the spooler and its attachments can be deleted, SmarterMail will still come back for them but fail when it finds the attachments are gone. What do people recommend as a viable way to deal with this (I assume everyone had to deal with this anyway before CF9)? Is the answer to set up a scheduled task that cleans out some directory of email attachments at regular intervals? db ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:344173 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: CF9's cfmail remove attribute not working at Crystal Tech
your host should actually be the ones cleaning up the temp folders not you :-) we run scheduled tasks to do things like this on all our servers 1. respool failed mail for 24 hours before deleting it 2. clean up all the coldfusion temp folders 3. delete old class files and reduce the memory usage. 4. delete old log files (not just CF) on top of these I actually review the CF logs and FusionReactor logs and inform customers of recurring problems so that they can fix them and improve the performanc eof their site.

Is anyone running CF8 and calling a crystal report (created with either version 8.5 or 2008) via the cfreport tag? We use Crystal Reports 8.5 with our VB6 apps but have never tried to use them with Coldfusion. I'm attempting that now (with either crystal v8.5 or with a 30-trial of the 2008 version) with no luck. My cfm page runs but I just get a blank screen. If I were doing this from scratch, what are the steps I need to take? Install Crystal 8.5 or 2008 on the server? I assume I need to install it on the server, or do I install it on my machine and then copy some of the dlls to the server and register them? Then call with the tag as follows: cfreport report = c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Database\Military_Billings\CFR_Templates\SBA.rpt/cfreport? What are the steps?

Re: CF Report and Crystal reports
I have been using the asp pages for years with crystal 9. Works great, but only 3 concurrent users.

RE: Crystal Tech or HostMySite? That's my problem!!!
That being said, my current site at HostMySite was very stable the first 6 months and now seems to go down a handful of times a day (based on my error reports and monitoring), which is probably due to some site on their that eats up CF resources but still really isn't acceptable. Bringing this up to HostMySite's support has not made much headway, and the initial improvement after the install of SeeFusion appears to have completely disappeared. I had a shared site on HMS for a few months, and from the beginning until I moved to a different host, I had daily error reports saying that CF couldn't connect to MySQL. HMS support tried to convince me the problem was that my code was sending too many requests to their shared MySQL server. I didn't like that answer, but chalked it up to using shared hosting. I have since moved to a VPS on Vivio, and have only received 3 error reports in the last few months. -- This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.

Losing Session Variables When Running A Crystal Report from Coldfusion 4.5
Greetings, Everyone. I have inherited an application that runs on Coldfusion 4.5 and Crystal Reports 8.5. The application has been running the Crystal Reports via an .asp interface. I have been asked to eliminate this interface and have the reports run directly from Coldfusion. I have had success with this conversion process with the exception that 'some' of the reports, after having ran and one has returned back to the application via the back button, all the session variables are gone. This only happens when running some of the reports. My question is why does this happen with only some reports and not others and how do I fix it?

Re: CF Report and Crystal reports
I have Crystal Reports working in a CF App, but not with cfreport. I am on an older version of Crystal (8.5) and plan to migrate everything to CF's Report Builder. My solution (this was several years ago) was to use some of the sample ASP pages that came with Crystal. I have a CF generated form that posts to an asp page that handles the object creation, report calling etc. Depending on how dedicated you are to Crystal, I would say give the CF Report builder a shot. There are some quirks, but also some work arounds. On 9/6/06, Russel Madere [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone succeeded in getting this combination to work?

about 6 years ago i create a custom tag to envoke a Crystal Report. At the time CF and CRW as is would produce an HTML CR not a real CRYSTAL REPORT to be dumped to the printer.

OT: Desperately Seeking Crystal Reports 8 Enterprise License (~30 Concurrent users)
Years ago my company made the (poor) decision to develop lots and lots of reports on Crystal Reports 8 Enterprise. We are now switching to new servers and have been unable to locate our old license(s). Version 8 is no longer sold, and we are moving away from Crystal to CF Reports and naturally don't want to incur the expense of an upgrade for such a short time period. Does anyone have any license(s) you would be willing to sell? Please let me know ASAP! Thanks!

Re: Crystal Reports
We've handled the issue for clients in a slightly different way from Marlon, posting parameters for a report to the ASP template (sometimes on a separate server), then handling the redirect to the PDF through ASP. But the heart of the matter is the same: unless CFReport in CFMX7 plays much better with Crystal than previous versions, you're better off using some version of ASP scripting to work with the Crystal app. Crystal provides good examples of how to do this. -- Thanks, Tom Tom McNeer MediumCool http://www.mediumcool.com 530 Means St NW, Suite 110 Atlanta, GA 30318 404.589.0560 ~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:212236 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

RE: Crystal Reports on CFMX 6.1/7
If you want to server up a Crystal Report with cfreport I believe you would need CR installed. In CFMX7 cfreport can also be used for the new ColdFusion reports created with the built in report generator. quote src=http://livedocs.macromedia.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=ColdFusion_Documentationfile=1476.htm; Creating reports with Crystal Reports (Windows only) When running on Windows, the cfreport tag also supports the execution of reports created using Crystal Reports version 9 or 10. Note: When you install Crystal Reports, you must select the Enable export to HTML and Enable export to Disk options. These options are not enabled by default, so you must use the Custom Install option. To invoke a Crystal Report report definition using the cfreport tag: 1. Create a report definition in Crystal Reports. 2. Create a CFM page and add a cfreport tag that invokes the Crystal Reports report definition. The following example shows the cfreport tag invoking a Crystal Reports report definition and passing a filter condition: cfreport report = '/reports/monthlysales.rpt' {Departments.Department} = 'International' /cfreport 3. Open a browser and display the CFM page. Tip: ColdFusion MX uses COM to call Craxdrt9.dll for Crystal Reports version 9, and Craxdrt.dll for Crystal Reports version 10. If you have problems with the cfreport tag, ensure that these DLLs are registered and, if not, use regsvr32 to register them (the default location for these DLLs is C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Report Designer Component\). For complete information on defining reports in Crystal Reports, see the Crystal Reports documentation. /quote -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA C code.

CFMAIL and Crystal Tech webhosting?
Hi everyone - this one has me stumped. I'm hosting a CF site on Crystal Tech, and added a simple page that allowed a visitor to send a hey look at this page email to a friend. I already had a contact us page that sent me an email via CFMAIL which worked fine. The new page only works when the destination email is in the same domain as the website. I've tried all combinations that I can think of in terms of SMTP server name, username, password in the CFMAIL tag, with no luck. I checked their knowledgebase and modeled my CFMAIL tag info after the PHP example, still no luck. I've forced the FROM address to be a legal address on my domain, still no luck. I've posted a ticket with Crystal Tech but am still waiting for a response, and was really hoping to get this simple little page up quickly! Any Idea?

We teach one, though it's not listed on ColdFusionTraining.com.We had used CR since V4 days (it's now at V10), and we needed to support some pathologists that wanted to learn the product, so it was relatively straightforward for us to develop a curriculum and teach a very nice two-day course.

RE: Report Generator - Crystal Reports?
Personally I would burn the Crystal Reports box... The quality of the software is so bad, it is unbelievable. I have to come up with one developer which actually likes Crystal Reports and indeed worked with it. - invalid formattings, you need to do a lote of odd save, close, and re-open things to workaround these. - continuously dragging lines to create a simple table. - change something in the text, and you need to realign everything, and execute point 2 again. I personally prefer Oracle's solution, that one is really good (select layout, select data, press next next next next next, done!) but unfortunately very expensive.

Re: Report Generator - Crystal Reports?
I think I might have sent this straight to David instead of to the list.If it double posts on the list, I apologize.If the attachment doesn't work on the list I will post somewhere else. This is a sample of the email I send out to those who inquire.I have had many inquiries so I have made a template of such to make sending them instruction easier and quicker. I am able to create crystal reports from from my web browser using the attached asp file.I pass variables like so: Just put show_report.asp in your form statement.Here is an example. FORM ACTION='' METHOD='post' input name=report_file type=hidden value=coverpage.rpt input name=pm_week type=hidden value=#varweek# input name=pm_year type=hidden value=2003 input name=pm_areaabbr type=hidden value=#getinfo.areaabbr# input type=submit value='Cover Page' /FORM Anything that starts with pm_ is sent to the report to match the parameters you can define in Crystal. If your report has no parameters you would really only need FORM ACTION='' METHOD='post' input name=report_file type=hidden value=coverpage.rpt input type=submit value='Cover Page' /FORM Your report needs to be in the /rptfiles directory and you need an /output directory for the pdf file.You might also need to give the output file a name(actually I think it gives a default so nevermind that).Can't remember, cause I always pass client.cfid.But it might require that. I have attached the asp file I use.This has been the only way I have been able to do what you are talking about. P.S.

Re: Report Generator - Crystal Reports?
Well at the rate the client keeps growing this project, it may never get finished.I had heard about some of the reporting in Blackstone, but no details.I signed up for the beta, but I guess I will have to wait. Any other solutions out there if Blackstone is not ready or suitable? Thanks -- Jeff Jeff, An alternative is to use HTMLDoc (see http://www.easysw.com) on your server and call it either via cfexecute or using the custom tag CF_Html2Pdf3. That one works very well, but you have to have HTMLDoc installed on your server. I've also used this approach with our employment application (internal only). Basically sandwich your output between CF_Html2Pdf3 tags and it automatically converts the content to a PDF. You can download CF_Html2Pdf3 at the Macromedia CF exchange: http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm#view=sn106viewName=Exchange%20Search%20Detailsloc=en_usauthorid=35342392page=0scrollPos=0subcatid=0snid=sn106itemnumber=0extid=1002789catid=0 >From the exchange: CF_HTML2PDF3 allows you to create PDF files from any dynamic CFM page simply by encasing whatever portion of the page you wish to display inside the opening and closing CF_HTML2PDF3 tags. usage syntax: CF_HTML2PDF3 myHTMLDOC=c:\cfusion\htmldoc.exe myOPTIONS=--landscape --fontsize 10pt TABLE CFOUTPUT QUERY=myQuery TRTD#myData#/TD/TR /CFOUTPUT/TABLE /CF_HTML2PDF3 There are some limitations, no CSS, forms or JS and HTMLDoc is limited to HTML 3.1 but otherwise it works as advertised. hth, larry -- Larry C.

Re: CFMX and Crystal Reports
Hey Kris, I've had similar problems when trying to do some heavy CF reports integration, and found that the easiest thing to do was to bite the bullet and use the ASP examples that Business Objects includes with Crystal.We pass an authentication id / token over to the ASP pages which then reauth and use the (pretty spiffy) Crystal viewers (Java or ActiveX depending on platform).

RE: CFMX and Crystal Reports
Never used cfreport.. However we use our own components to connect to a report, the use this component to pass the parameters to the report build the report in either PDF, XLS, or .Doc files.

OT: Crystal Reports (WAS: Absolute positioning in word)
Ok, now trying Crystal Reports but this project seems to be destined to drive me insane, I can't believe no one before me has had these problems! Now, the question: How does crystal reports want me to call tables from mysql?If I just use tablename then I get an error saying that test.tablename does not exist. I then assumed that is wanted a user name so I tried root.tablename but this doesn't exist either, as root is the only user on this dev box the table can't belong to any one else.In desperation I have also tried mylsam.tablename and sam.tablename and dbo.tablename but I could sit here trying random strings for ever and not hit the right one. Does anyone know how to do this? -- Jay -Original Message- From: Samuel Neff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 01 July 2004 14:10 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Absolute positioning in word (WAS: CSS layer positioning) As I say in my presentation, not everything that can be done in Word can be recreated through HTML-Word.This appears to be one of those cases.

Now back to my problem, if I position a table in an absolute position on the page in word then save it as a doc file it works fine, however it is a binary file and therefore useless as a source of information. If I save it as an HTML document as you suggest it immediately moves the table into a relative position and looses its absolute position, this is also no good :-( A text box does seem to keep it's position ok, but generates so much html code it is hard to tell which bits I need and which I don't, is there any good documentation anywhere on this? -- Jay [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings] [Donations and Support]

Crystal 8.5 with CF MX 6.1
We are trying to run a simple Crystal Report (built using version 8.5) using a CFREPORT tag in a Cold Fusion page. My understanding is that this should be relatively routine.

OT: Crystal Enterprise Report Application Server (RAS) 9.
Anybody out there have any experience with this product? I'm at my wit's end.We have struggled for a week trying to install Crystal Enterprise Report Application Server (RAS) 9 on our new web server.I have searched up and down Business Objects' knowledge base (the new owners of the Crystal Reports product line) and can't make any sense of this.It installed CE RAS 9 on my local development computer without trouble, but once installed on the new web server we can't run any reportsI've found several resources that apparently describe resolutions to our problems, but they ask me to create virtual directories in the website(s) linked to file system directories that don't exist in any of my installations and create application mappings in the website(s) to a wcsinsapi.dll that also does not exist anywhere on the web server, on the installation disk or even my local machine where CE RAS is actually working Any help would be most appreciated. Thank You -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA C code. C code run. Run code run.

Crystal Reports
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can explain to me how exactly Crystal Reports work with CF. I have a request from my users to replace their Access based report with web based reports and I think Crystal is the best route - maybe. Does Crystal need to be installed on the CF server? What version of Crystal is needed as I have two different versions of CF running. I on set of servers that is still using CF4.5 - waiting to be upgraded and another set running MX. Is there any other report writers out there that will work with CF? I have been working with iText to make pdf's but I am not sure if this is good for what I want to do. If anyone has any ideas or knows of any other solutions, can you let me know. Thanks Mario [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]

RE: crystal tech - access databases
Tim, There is a SQL list at houseoffusion.com. I agree with Cameron that MS Access shouldn't be used for web apps, but in some cases it is all you have or your only option.There are a few good tricks for maintenance, use etc if access is what you have to use, but IF you have the option of using a SQL server (MS or MySQL) then I would take a good look at it. it is well worth the migration and really isn't that difficult to do.Some ISP's will give you a hand in the migration as well.

Re: crystal report to pdf
Short answer: no. Long answer: Install the ASP.net framework on the server.Call the report from a simple aspx template.The asp templates that come with Crystal are very explanatory.The one advatage to asp.net is that you have a lot better error handling, which you'll need with all the problems Crystal can have :).Call the aspx from cf using cfhttp.
