Re: [cfaussie] RE: Coldfusion JRun Max handler threads setting
To answer the original questions, max handler threads are basically running + queued threads, with an allowance for internal coldfusion processes as well. Wouldn't touch the setting, personally. Running threads, usually set at 4 per processor, queued threads, you can set this as you please (though a lower value is safer). Though I don't see how it addresses the OutOfMemory exceptions - the problem is that the server cannot create a new thread to handle a request because there is no memory available. Address the memory leak and you will no longer have the error. Possible memory leak sources include: - site spiders/crawlers that create a new session with every request: if you are creating objects or large data structures within the session, that would be an issue - external applications, especially COM/.Net/Gateways - large structures in the application scope - caches, objects - large queries (cached or not) - too many SELECT *'s? - Data source memory leaks (esp. MySQL) I don't think modifying thread limits will fix the issue.

As far as I know this is just the queue that threads sit in before being moved to the 'active handler threads' pool where they are actually executed. So new requests to the web server will sit in this queue until the server is free to process it. Our server processes threads pretty fast, but we have an issue at the moment where we get java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread on the odd occasion, normally when something hammers the server for a long period of time, I am going to possibly scale back the memory allocated to JRun so the operating system has more to play with, but I'm wondering if reducing the max handler threads pool will help this as well as there will be less total threads using up operating system memory? We don't actually need a large wait pool and it'd be better if requests got a server busy message rather than bloating out the available threads and thus operating system memory.

Re: [cfaussie] .htaccess, apache2.2 and CF8

Look at the mappings on the production server - either there is no root set

[cfaussie] Re: Out of Memory
First thing that comes to mind is Sessions. If you are placing a lot of data in the session scope, your server can be brought down by all kinds of traffic especially spiders. And then there's excessive caching. If you are caching on a per-user basis or not caching effectively (e.g. storage bugs, whitespace) you can get this. Depends on your application. Perhaps it is loading some huge data structure into memory but it would have to be excessively huge to bring down the server.

[cfaussie] Re: To maintain DB connections or not ... that is the question
My gut feeling is that you should not enable this feature unless you know specifically why you want to use it. Have had trouble in the past with the DBMS running out of connections on busy servers with this setting enabled, as every client has a connection whether they are using it or not (eg. you will collect idle connections). The overhead in creating a connection per request is most likely low, especially when connecting locally or even over a LAN. May be interesting to gauge whether you are getting any performance benefits with this setting enabled / disabled just by setting some timers and running a few queries.

Surely we'd have heard more of a hue and cry from the community if that were so. In fact, the CF docs offer an example (in the .NET integration section) that says it's using a .NET 2.0 class. I've tried it myself (the first piece of code) and it worked. What do you find? http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=dotNet _07.html Also, the last example on this page also says it's using a .NET 2.0 only class: http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=dotNet _07.html How does that work for you? It worked fine for me. If they work, then clearly (if the docs are to be believed), you can call .NET 2.0 classes. As for why your call to that system.environment class reported 1.1, I can't say, but I can say that there could be a lot of possible explanations for what you're seeing (if the above work), from my experience working with .NET a couple of years ago. Things aren't quite always what they seem. Hope that's helpful. If you continue to experience frustration, how about bringing this up on the Adobe CF forums (advanced techniques or general discussion).

OK. What I want to know exactly is whether you have the version number for 3.5 in your config file or not. If not, add it, restart the service, and check if it's working. Macromedia/Adobe have a shoddy record for installers so don't expect the installer to do *anything* for you. What you are talking about is configurable. If 3.5 is not working after adding it as a supported version, contact someone at adobe (good luck) or check other lists. It's obvious that we cannot help you.

But when reinstalling the JnBridge proxy it only picks up .Net 1.1 and states that in the install script. Secondly, the machine that actually has .Net 2.0 installed is being correctly found.

Does that make the problem a little more clearer, I appreciate the info, but it doesn't help when the installer DOESN'T understand what .Net 3.5 is now does it?

Whoa. You fall asleep for a couple of days and this happens. Strongly agree with Scott and Kay. Don't lock yourself into CF. It's very good but there are newer and (should I say) better technologies out there. However, the web has not changed much. Sure there's all the hype with web 2.0, 2.0.1, 3.0 etc etc but it's still just HTML displayed in a browser. Even rich media tools like flex don't do much more than HTML does right now. Get into the wider web community - definitely. Try coding with another language for a while and get out into the wider community. It might put some of your worries to ease. Most likely Adobe knows they have a niche and they will probably destroy CF in the end (just download the latest version of reader to see where they're going - less features, more bugs). Perhaps the recruiter has a point. But think of all the time you all spent writing messages on this forum. Eventually they will be lost, all meaningless, like chasing the wind. Meanwhile you could have installed PHP or started to read up on .net or java. off-topic-rant I'm just disgruntled because I'm studying .net at the moment and using the PDF version to read the book on my laptop. Downloaded the latest reader yesterday (it was an important security update of 22.4 mb!), and now it crashes every 5 pages and I have to reopen, redo all my settings (everything is hidden by default and it doesn't save settings even on a graceful exit), find the page I was up to, and keep going.

I'd really like to respond to this chapter-and-verse at the moment but I'm really pushed for time... but I will say that (IMHO) Kay Smoljak is right on the money: The issue isn't a religious war. it's not good Vs evil or red team Vs blue - unless you're a shareholder of Adobe or Microsoft (hey Scott - shares in the company are part of your package, yes?) for everyone else, a particular technology is an enabler. That's all. Sure people have their preference - and I came kicking and screaming into CF late 2002 (CF6.0/Redsky/CF6.1), grudgingly used it then like it and stayed for the ride. Meanwhile I'd been using ASP (classic) and had been part of the ASP.NET public beta up to it's release where I deamed ASP.NET 1.0 a pile of rubbish and turned my back on it (it was the infinite post-backs as one reason that killed it for me although I really like some things in C# - it has what Java should) but it's noteworthy to see that when I was a CF-noob, old hands like Gary Menzel were active in the community - now Vaughn and the guys are migrating (have migrated?) to Java and are nowhere to be seen in the CF world. People move on, situations change. ColdFusion - he's just this guy, y'know? don't get me wrong, for mine, CF is the best darn bang-for-buck I can get. But if you asked a question of which web-based technology is best then you'll not get one single answer: as Sean Corfield often says it depends!. there's still a ton of dynamic web apps written in VBScript (ASP classic - depricated in 2003). Ford Vs Holden, anyone? and, leaning heavily on the capabilities of the little Flash Player, Adobe are starting to get together an interesting technology stack suitable for the digital media world (although the mess of LiveCycle with DS and ES, et al, needs to be sorted - too confusing for managers). It makes the ownership of CF by Adobe that (seems to start to) have good flow-on effects. so when it comes to job choices, platform can a modifier. ie: you take a dev job with a CF flavour. 1) enabler: the technology becomes the vehicle for people to do things better/faster, etc. 2) enabler: the technology is a joy to use so it gives job statisfaction doing things. 3) enabler: the technology has the platform longevity to keep you doing this for as long as you need it to. and I have no doubt that coding CF could give me both for many years to come. I support the technology to do my bit in it thriving into the future. I have no shares in Adobe so the long-term outcome for me is purely future employment. which is why I try and get people interested in CFUG's, etc - being active in ensuring the platform has logevity and providing job security by platform security, instead of being a passenger blown along with the winds... (as well as keeping skills up (1) which leads to better results (2)) but... if you were hunting for a job, would you follow the technology stack and hang the industry it's used in? Keep in mind the further you progress through the ranks, the less important specific technology becomes as you need to manage outcomes and what the technology has

I agree with most of that but on the topic of recruiters - they are just sales people and I wouldn't take them seriously. They have a position to sell to the client, not just you. Say they were selling fridges. You can get the super duper models with the ice machines and built in tv's and then you have your everyday run-of-the-mill fridges. You come in wanting a super duper fridge but all they have is run-of-the-mill fridges - they still want their commission so they will try and sell you an everyday fridge. Now replace everyday fridge with PHP and super duper fridge with ColdFusion, and that explains why they are taking the CF is on it's way out pitch. But let's not go into this *monthly* debate again.

Unfortunately for us it seems CF is not being used as extensively as it should Down Under. The shortage is due to a few factors, most important of which is 1) there are not enough good CF- ers to go around, lets be honest you can get away with spaghetti code in CF, which is a double sided blade. 2) There are not enough companies willing to take on new coders without any prior CF experience and 'train' them... 3) Which leads back to business decisions being made that it is easier (and cheaper salary-wise/ contract-wise) to carry out a project in PHP, as you have a big pool of novice-intermediate PHP coders compared to CF coders. I think for Australia at least, if Adobe 1) Does not enforce lower pricing for CF hosting by their hosting partners 2) push CF to Unis 3) review pricing strategies to gain critical mass, In the long run no matter how great the forthcoming versions of CF is going to be, only big MNCs will use it, and unfortunately their coding teams are usually not based in Australia, hence CF will probably keep becoming sidelined in Australia while others continue to grow.

This makes no sense:

You are already *after* the last day of the previous month. Having such
a statement is unnecessary.
Just use the cachedwithin parameter and be done with it. It's a good
idea not to store caches in memory for too long (e.g. more than a day).
Otherwise, create a method for caching your queries based on parameters.
Store them in memory (e.g. application scope) or save them to file (e.g.
WDDX). At least that way you have full control over when and how your
queries are cached.

Hi Fusioneers,
I have an SQL I would like to cache, but have two strategies depending
on the parameters
If the parameters are for the current month, I only want to cache the
query for 1 day
If it is for a past month, I want to start the caching from after the
last day of that month
cfquery has two attributes to do this
- cachedwithin
- cachedafter
So I thought I would do this, but it looks like CF does not like the
CFIF inside the cfquery tag
cfset rptDate = CreateDate(URL.year, URL.month, DaysInMonth(Now()))
/
cfquery name=qryStatsByMonth
datasource=#APPLICATION.DataSourceMain#
cfif DateDiff('m', rptDate, Now()) EQ 0
cachedwithin=#CreateTimeSpan(1,0,0,0)#
cfelse
cachedafter=#rptDate#
/cfif
Any ideas how I can do this?
For now, I will put the cfif on the outside and have two cfqueries.
Guess this is not a bad way of doing it, just thought it would be neat
if it could be done with one query.

[cfaussie] Re: What constitutes maintenance
You would need to outline what maintenance is exactly. I would put any regular, predictable tasks into maintenance (e.g. backups, database optimization, server monitoring, basic user support etc). I would not include bug fixing or any modifications to the codebase as being maintenance. I wouldn't even include software updates as being included as maintenance as (most of the time) they are too time consuming to be done regularly. If you have a clear cut agreement from the start that defines maintenance (as you see it) then you will save yourself from the punch-ups later on.

[cfaussie] Re: Issue with concurrency
It sounds like you're grabbing the latest number from the DB (or something) to display in your form. It sounds like this number is only updated when the user submits the form. Therefore two visitors to form at the same time will get the same number... I think you have to redesign your app. Either set the request number at the time of submission (and don't pass it in the form), or create a new request number every time a user visits the form (and have a few gaps between numbers). It's up to you. And use a cflock for saving / retrieving the latest number.

[cfaussie] Re: programmer etiquette and writing good CF code
Meh. I reckon the best type of programmer is one that accepts the faults of others (and themselves) and moves on. Nothing is perfect in life and we must all accept that. I really concur with Geoff's statement as I myself have been in that position many times over the years. And I have written lots and lots of shite code based on shoddy prototypes. And not just in ColdFusion either. But in the end I've learnt a lot and moved on. I don't sit around all day bagging other peoples' code, that's for sure.

I've done lots of code reviews where the code was atrocious but the history behind the project wasn't that the developer didn't care.. more that the company didn't care. There's plenty of times people have been asked to knock up a prototype -- the equivalent of a couple of blocks of 2x4 and some big nails -- only to have that prototype wheeled into production by over eager managers. Most of us want to have the time to craft something exquisite but very often we're not given the chance to do so.

The values generated from Gareth's code shouldn't happen and no I don't agree with the opinion it is a fault / known issue of the Java language, it is simply the way CF was written to use Java. They decided to go with a smaller memory footprint for storing numeric values. This is a very annoying issue when dealing with very small numbers in CF and has driven me nuts plenty of times before. Obviously using BigDecimal for every numeric in CF would use too much memory but maybe some option for the construction of 'CF numbers' so developers can choose to be more precise.

Since the app was not working directly, I tried running a batch file instead, cfexecute name=...\test.bat timeout=5 /cfexecute attempt 1 @echo am I working? works attempt 2 @echo am I working? @[program name] [args..] times out attempt 3 @echo am I working? @cmd times out It is obvious that cfexecute just does not work like it should in windows 2003.

Can be exchanged in France prior to the travel date. - I've writen a regex to find all strings where a number has a % symbol after it and replace it with FOO: - cfdump var=#ReReplace(str_text,([0-9]+%)+,FOO,all)# - Now I want to use the backreference and subtract 25, but it seems the backreference can only be treated as a string: cfdump var=#ReReplace(str_text,([0-9]+%)+,\1-25,all)# Which produces: 100%-25, wrong I know!!! I'm guessing that I will have to be to write a REFind and do some replaces etc, however it would be great if someone could write it all in a regex.

[cfaussie] Re: Regular expressions - backreference as a number
Ok. I know there were no comments. I removed them to make you think (yes, that's why...). what happens is that ColdFusion evaluates the string. Say that the string is: Our product is #1 in 25% of the selected demographic ..if the line were not there, after processing it would be evaluated as Our product is #1 in #25-25#% of the selected demographic ..which would cause a coldfusion parsing error so, what this line does is effectively escape the existing hashes, so the string becomes: Our product is ##1 in #25-25#% of the selected demographic ..which evaluates as Our product is #1 in 0% of the selected demographic which unfortunately can be true at times... - SO, with comments cfscript ... // escape any hashes in the existing string str_text = replace(str_text, ##, , all); // replace any percentage values with coldfusion code to // subtract 25% from existing values str_text = ReReplace(str_text, ([0-9]*)%,##\1-25##%,all); // evaluate coldfusion code result = evaluate(DE(str_text)); /cfscript I hope that clears things up Joel (The old-hatter cookie cleaver) -Original Message- From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Matthew Sent: Thursday, 14 December 2006 1:55 PM To: cfaussie Subject: [cfaussie] Re: Regular expressions - backreference as a number Someone is a very cleaver cookie!!!

[cfaussie] Re: Restarting the CFAPP from the URL
My gut feeling says that calling this function will not reset the session variables. You could try it out and see what happens to your session though. If it doesn't work, perhaps assigning a random name to the application would reset the session variables? I think you can do this by setting the application.applicationName (this.applicationName?) variable but am unsure if it would actually work. You could probably look it up in the livedocs.

It's an SEO book, not a development book. Anyway (in my opinion), SEO is just a bunch of hearsay and conjecture. Anyone who has done any work with CSS in multiple browsers knows that using the transitional doctype in any language is a no-no. For starters, IE misinterprets the box model incorrectly and often in any browser positioning and flow can be interpreted in many, often unpredictable ways.. Whether XHTML or plain HTML, the transitional doctype is just too much work when dealing with more than one browser. On one of our newer sites** the XHTML model seems to work well with search engines, and the code isn't much different at all. It doesn't even fail if the code is not well-formed.

I figure it's better to get it all up to date now, Especially since old browsers dont spit it out. There's no downside to learning XHTML and potentially some big downside to using old HTML.

[cfaussie] Re: Application scope problem
Hi, The application scope is useful for this kind of data (in moderation of course), but you should also minimise the number of writes you actually do to the application scope. Hopefully (though the code does not indicate this), you should have a check to see if the array doesn't already exist in the application scope before creating it (ie. NOT structKeyExists(application,rews)). Otherwise, every request will be resetting your array and you'll end up with lots of gremlins when multiple users are hitting the application at the same time. Personally if it just a simple array that gets created at the start of each request then I might want to set it in the request scope.

[cfaussie] Re: Application scope problem
Just some things I would like to point out (I know I am always running under my own steam round here..) 1. A normal variables scope cannot be accessed via custom tags without using the caller scope and that can get complicated with nested tags. Using the request scope is a matter of global search and replace (application.rews request.rews). 2. If the data is of a set-and-forget nature (ie. no need to be updated by users), then you're just adding overhead by calling it from a database. Especially if you have to make this call to the database at the start of each request.

The WebDU was great last year. It looked pretty damn successful. If you keepbagging the organisermaybe he'll just give up and not put any events on at all.. As someone who grew up in WA inthe most isolated city in the world (and the most neglected in Australiaas far asthe big events go), I cannot see what the big fuss is about. Because it doesn't seem obvious I will say this: Sydney is in the middle of the east coast, one can drive there from Melbourne or Brisbane overnight on perhaps one tank of fuel (depending on what car you have).Itisonly 45 minutes by plane from Melbourne and perhaps an hour and a bitfrom Brisbane. You can set yourself up at one of the many backpackers down the road if accomodation costsare an issue (just hold on to your valuables and be sure to bathe in Dettol every morning). However, the Hilton has been refurbished recently and looks very nice. If you're still concerned about costs, you can carpool it here to Sydney and back(around $160 in fuel = $40 each?)and live in my garage. There's a king size double being stored there, probably good for up to four programmers. You might have to avoid inhaling the fumes from all the semi-opened cans of paint and double-stroke lying around in there. And definately no smoking indoors. (No, this is not really available, I am just kidding) The only realcost is your time, as someone else said, if you're spending it elsewhere you're probably not thatserious about your career.

Subject: [cfaussie] regexp - keyboard characters
Hi All,
Anyone have a regular expression that strips all but keyboard characters.. not
just printable characters.. but anything that you can't type using a keyboard?
I'm sure there is some funky syntax required to escape some of the shift0-9
characters..
a b
I would like to just be left with a and b from the above string.. (the hyphen
is not a normal hyphen.. looks like it comes from M$ word)
Thanks in advance..
Adam

[cfaussie] Re: Query picking up an odd value from somewhere
My own take on it would be that there is an issue with your joins. You could either get rid of all the brackets and join each table sequentially, IE. SELECT FROM A INNER JOIN B ON A.ID = B.A_ID INNER JOIN C ON C.ID = B.C_ID etc OR grab tables and join in the where clause SELECT FROM A, B, C WHERE A.ID = B.A_ID AND C.ID = B.C_ID etc.. This might make things easier to see..

I have a search function, and one of the things you can filter the search by is post code. So I have the following query: SELECT DISTINCT c.ID, c.tradingAs, c.description, c.address, c.phone1, c.phone2, c.phone3, c.fax, c.email, c.url, c.logo, pcr.Pcode FROM (((c_classified c INNER JOIN c_classifiedHasRegion chr ON c.id = chr.classifiedID) INNER JOIN c_classifiedRegion cr ON chr.regionID = cr.id) INNER JOIN c_classifiedHasCategory chc ON c.id = chc.classifiedID ) INNER JOIN (c_classifiedRegionHasBSP r2b INNER JOIN postcoderaw pcr ON r2b.BSPName = pcr.BSPName) ON cr.ID = r2b.regionID WHERE c.statusID = '#application.uuid.status.classified.active#' AND c.expiryDate = '#arguments.datefilter#' AND c.classifiedTypeID = '#application.uuid.classifiedtype.platinum#' cfif len(FORM.postcode) and isNumeric(FORM.postcode) AND pcr.Pcode = #FORM.postcode# /cfifSadly, this doesn't seem to do anything to the result set - I get the same result whether I put anythng in the postcode field or not.I added the pcr.Pcode to the selection in an attempt to see what was going on and discovered something really odd: the value of this field for every record is what was put into the form. So if I did a search on 2131 then every record has 2131 as their Pcode. Now, I can't see understand how the query is picking this up. Has anyone come across anything like this before? Am I just missing something really simple? Any suggestions would be appreciated, because I'm going nuts over this one.Cheers,Seona. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

[cfaussie] Re: Why bother
A method that you can use instead of this is to run a scheduled process every minute or so. Use the GetMetricData() function to detect server load, and if load is low, run the process for a set number of rows / timeframe. Then record the status of the process and exit. Future requests can carry on from the previous request. This makes more sense and it is what CF is made to do. Putting in a sleep function sounds like a tricky short cut that may cause problems in the future. -Original Message- From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Mark Stanton Sent: Thursday, 31 August 2006 10:28 AM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: [cfaussie] Re: Why bother Hi Joel We have made good use of thread.sleep() in a case where we had a very long and CPU intensive process. This process made the rest of the site crawl when it was being run and so it was scheduled for just after midnight. It doesn't really matter how long it takes for the process to run so we added in some logic to force the process to sleep for a couple of seconds after every few iterations through a loop.

I'm talking more about what CF was *designed* to do.

I am a little old-school.. I jumped from CF 4.5 to MX a couple of years back and still have some old conventions lurking under the hood (kind of like an australian made vehicle).. But that's not the full picture Personally I find it cleaner to get variables like session and app/server variables and the like at the start of a file and set them at the end (or as required).. That way you're avoiding the likelihood of things changing while server is processing the page. I've had this a few times with application variables on high traffic sites so got into the habit of doing it for any variable that might be stored on the server across requests.

factory = CreateObject('JAVA', coldfusion.server.ServiceFactory);
RpcService = factory.XmlRpcService;

Subject: [cfaussie] Web Service Stub Wierdness
I have some named web services in my ColdFusion administrator (CF 6.1).
I have templates which invoke the web services. These invocations have
a low timeout.
If I load a template which calls a web service after adding or
refreshing a web service in the administrator, it runs without
problems.
When I restart ColdFusion, however, I can no longer invoke these web
services because of socket timeout errors. These are resolved after
refreshing the web services in the administrator.
Now I know ColdFusion is going to use Axis to generate stubs when
adding/refreshing web services. Therefore, these stubs must be deleted
by CF when restarting ColdFusion even though Save Class Files setting
is enabled (I'm assuming, then, that this setting only applies to
compiled ColdFusion pages, not Axis stubs).
Needless to say, the generate of stubs and their invocation exceeds 5
the timeout threshhold.
Anyone know I can tell CF not to delete these stubs?

I just wrote this out of curiosity, based on Sun's docos:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/zip/Deflater.html
I cannot get the unzip function working.. I think the way I am decoding
strings is not the right way (I'm no java expert).. But it definately seems
possible..
It's in Java as I don't think CF interprets binary data too well.
Basically it's just a matter of installing the class file and using the
following code
cfset zipper = createObject(java, zipper)
cfset raw = hello
cfset encoded = zipper.zip(raw)
cfset decoded = zipper.unzip(encoded)
My lunch break is up and I have little time to take this any further..
Perhaps someone more proficient in Java than myself can patch it up..
Joel
import java.util.zip.*;
public class zipper {
public String zip (String inputString) {
// Encode a String into bytes
byte[] input = inputString.getBytes();
// Compress the bytes
byte[] output = new byte[100];
Deflater compresser = new Deflater();
compresser.setInput(input);
compresser.finish();
int compressedDataLength = compresser.deflate(output);
String returnVar = new String(output, 0, compressedDataLength);
return returnVar;
}
public String unzip (String inputString) {
// Encode a String into bytes
byte[] input = inputString.getBytes();
// Decompress the bytes
Inflater decompresser = new Inflater();
decompresser.setInput(input);
compresser.finish();
byte[] result = new byte[100];
int resultLength = decompresser.inflate(result);
decompresser.end();
// Decode the bytes into a String
String outputString = new String(result, 0, resultLength);

Hi all
I have an application.cfc in the root and another in an admin sub-folder
that extends the root application.cfc. Customers log-in on the root
level and administrators log-in at the admin level - giving them
security roles for those areas.
Is it possible when at the root level to reference whether a user is
logged into any particular security role at the admin level? For example
I'd like to display edit buttons on the root level if the user is logged
in as an administrator at the admin sub-folder level.
I'm thinking it's not possible as the applications are treated as
separate entities? If it is possible - how?

[cfaussie] Re: Getting a list of tables in access
Thanks.. Actually the transferring of data part is taken care of.. We have a system where public users may want to upload their internal data in access format, which is then transferred into a SQL Server database for web use. I want to be able to give them the choice of selecting which objects to import, hence I need to get a list of available tables. All the websites on this subject give conflicting information, plus detailed documentation doesn't seem to be available from MS. It's just the getting a list of tables part that I need.. And I would prefer to use a query.

Hi I found the issue, it was jrun updater 6: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=5c9389c8 Jrun updater was installed as there was an excess of error 165 messages turning up in the runtime logs. Even though MX7 updater 2 was installed after the jRun installation, it was still using what it considered to be the latest jrun version (the one that causes this issue). So the patch was installed and all of a sudden there were no more issues.

[cfaussie] Re: CFLOCATION Issue
It was completely random in fact. I don't know the exact details but it seemed to be linked to sessions; Ie. everything would work well until a certain point, then after that point relocations would not work for the rest of the session. It was possible to have two computers accessing the site, one would work, one wouldn't. After a few or a lot of clicks, both computers would stop working. I guess I left that last part out. It seemed at first glance to be an issue specific to one computer but after a while it became apparent on all of them. It was apparent only in Internet Explorer, which would show the relocated URL in the address bar, with the truncated code from the previous page in the browser window. Firefox seemed to behave normally. It was just one server that was causing the problem. We've been running on win2000 for years and this is our first 2003 server. We also upgraded to SQL 2005 and the performance difference is huge over SQL 7.

[cfaussie] Re: Duplicating CFC instances (very interesting behaviour)
You could try storing your CFC's in a persistent scope (ie. Application, Session) ie. Application.Com=structNew(); Application.Com.myCFC=createObject(component,com.myCFC); You could create a function init which initialises all the things you need then returns the CFC instance, and the execute it as: Application.Com.myCFC=createObject(component,com.myCFC).init(); From there you could start using it's functions without need for reinitialisation (if thats a word) cfset myVar=Application.Com.myCFC.myFunction() Duplicating CFC's sounds like barking up the wrong tree to me. You'll end up chewing resources and so forth.

This is causing performance issues because some requests are creating many components, and each creation takes some time as ColdFusion will do some disk I/O. Overhead is about 30 ms per instance creation, which adds up. I reckon I can get this number below 5 ms but cloning a CFC in memory which means NOT using CreateObject. Now, I know that Duplicate makes deep copies of structs. When applied to a CFC instance, it seems to create a struct, where the keys are the method names and the values are the methods. I can still call these methods just like a CFC which is nice. However, I have some logic which is performed when IsObject is true, which is not for these CFCs. I'm fishing for ideas here on the best way to duplicate a CFC without touching the file systems, while preserving that IsObject will be true for the new object. I'm open to Java ideas as well. I've tried things like cfc.getClass().newInstance(), but this doesn't get me anywhere. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

[cfaussie] Re: OT: - cfaussie sucking the life out of me
Just ignore my post. I had a lot of difficulties with getting a perfectly good web service working because of the inner workings of CF and its AXIS service. In the end I had to modify countless config files and shuffle through the Java subsystem to correct a configuration issue. No actually I don't love standards that much but it would be good to use a system that was actually developed to consume and provide web services.. Not just interact with some open source app. I know there are limitations with web services in general but it would be good to have a platform that can actually serve them out in a predictable way. At least in .net you would know that date/time is an issue and your web service will still work after you restart the web server (please don't make me explain or this message will be 3 pages long).. I am/was just letting off some steam..

[cfaussie] Re: AXIS error on MX7
Ok.. figured it out
So it seems, you cannot create a CFC outside the web root defined in setup
and call it as a web service, even if you have the directory setup in IIS
and try using mapping in CF administrator, e.g.:
Dir of my CF application = e:\webfiles\svc002
CFC called as {e:\webfiles\svc002}/myCFC.cfc?wsdl = ERROR
Dir defined in CF setup = e:\webfiles\svc001
CFC called as {e:\webfiles\svc001}/myCFC.cfc?wsdl = OK
It seems to go against our hosting provider's best practices
Found this URL.. It's something to do with the mappings but unfortunately
everyone talks this guy down instead of admitting that it may be an issue
(wrapped URL)
http://www.luismajano.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=entryentry=403D4512-A732-366A
-665EE7B10AA8FD36
I'm shocked in disbelief.. Could my assumptions be true that all CFCs have
to be beneath the web root defined in setup? Should I reinstall or try to
dig up where the web root has been defined. Can anyone drop me some hints?

Hi,
Had this error when invoking a known working web service on a new server

Apparently, something has gone wrong (?) - The cfc exists in the specified
directory, which is mapped in CF administrator as /. Typing another
filename in returns a 404 - the CFC works perfectly on another server

Does anyone know what this means (google has let me down):
---
{{{CFCName}}} = filename of CFC (without extension) being requestered

Yes Robin I got your post Unfortunately I didn't read yesterdays posts about the original "issue", but in my opinion if you are going to call a function something vague like "tr", you might want to know where it comes from so you don't spend ages trying to figure it out later on when you forget what "tr" means. Hence it makes sense to have at least aline in theresomewhere to define what "tr" is - whether it's a comment saying where it is defined or simply an include that makes it obvious where the function is; i.e. application.tr ..that means my function might be defined in the application cfinclude template="globalfunctions.cfm" ..that means my custom function might be in there !--- tr is in the application.cfc --- ..etc I apologise if I am just making noise.

[cfaussie] Re: QofQ
As someone who does not use QoQ that often, here are some other ways you can do this: - If you want to look up a certain value, create a referential structbased on the column you wish to lookup, containing the vital information - If you want to create little queries, you could try query functions (querynew, queryAddColumn etc) - You could try converting the query into an array, CFC, functionorother structurethat retrieves data in a morerelevant way - Use query caching and the startrow / endrow features of cfloop - Do lots of little queries with the database instead of continually messing around with one big query stored in memory CPU and memory are different things. Someone with a CS degree should clear that up for you. Storing data in memory doesn't mean that you avoid processing the data when you start using it in QoQ. I don't know why people use QoQ anyway. It seems limited compared to other ways ofprocessing data. That's just a personal opinion. I know it's probably extremely useful in very specific cases.

So if you have some SQL like this: SELECT firstname,surname FROM users WHERE firstname = '#form.firstname#' it won't really matter if someone tries to put some dodgy SQL into form.firstname because any ' character they enter will be turned into '' so everything they type will remain quoted. However, according to the article this can be trivially defeated in some dbs like MySQL by escaping a single quote with the \ character. I have a couple of questions: 1. Is this really a problem for MySQL or does CF have some other escape mechanism? 2. Is there any way of causing this problem in SQL Server?

[cfaussie] Re: SQL Injection in CF
From a couple of emails back, I still get the strange error from time to time: Error Executing Database Query. [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Could not find prepared statement with handle [X]. Gets to a stage where it happens on a certain query, regardless of what is being passed; server has to be restarted to resolve the problem. From memory, (when I used to make websites with allaire spectra) a lot of the slowness in some queries could be alleviated by removing unnecessary cfqueryparams (e.g. inserting data generated by server code). I remember it changed from about 30 seconds to do an update down to less than a second, mainly because of the large number of parameters being passed and the amount of queries actually occuring. Of course back them I didn't know a lot about things so it could have just been a problem with the database or whatever.. Who knows. It would be good to resolve the above problem as, if it is unresolveable and pops up in other areas, I'll have to add that function to the rest of the cfqueryparams, numbering in the thousands throughout the application (this will not be nice), but is there any other choice? There's no information out there, so I'm a little stuck with this at the moment.

[cfaussie] Re: Whats so bad about the tag syntax?
For some things it seems a lot faster, especially when there's a lot of processing involved of structs and arrays etc. But not everything I guess.. Usually the code starts off in tags and if I see that it's running a bit slow I change it to cfscript.. Sometimes it runs a bit faster.. I cannot give you hard examples though. Maybe it's because I turn the tags into functions in the process.. who knows. I am a bit old school. I still take pleasure in the joys of usingcold fusion studio 4.5 every now and then.
