clarification on Developer vs. Enterprise version

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 14 Aug 2014 13:24:41 GMT

Small Cold Fusion shop and our setup has long been that we've each had our own CF server (development version) on our desktop that we developed against. We are being forced to move to a single server environment so I am researching best ways to do this. The first thing that jumped out was that we'd need multiple instances of the server so that each developer could hose/restart/etc their CF service. That obviously points to CF Enterprise and it's hefty price tag. After some research, it appears that the developer version WILL work the same way as the Enterprise version (multiple instances), with the same limitations as dev (localhost and one other IP address). This sounds like a much better solution, but I just wanted to confirm - is it safe to assume the ip restrictions are per instance? Seems it'd be silly to allow multiple instances, but still limit the ip's at the overall server level. We'll be looking for a setup where developer 1 (and their ip address) can use instance 1, developer 2 (and their ip) can use instance 2, etc.

Thanks!

CF10, CFHTTP and SSL subject alternative names

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 20 Mar 2014 21:07:39 GMT

I have an SSL certificate where the Common Name doesn't match the url, but the Subject Alternative Name does. The Common Name is the actualMachineName.subnet.subnet.mynetwork.com and the SAN is www.prettyurl.com. I understand older versions of CF don't support this, but the comments regarding Bug #3566218 say that CF10 does. However, I am still getting connection failures telling me the name doesn't match.

Can anyone confirm this should/shouldn't work in CF10? I have imported all of the certs via the keytool and explored all of those issues. The only remaining issue is that the url doesn't match the CN.

TIA,

Eric

CF10 service not starting/Tomcat slow

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 24 Jan 2014 16:04:20 GMT

This is happening in 2 identical environments:

Brand new machine, fresh copy of CF10 Standard x64 on Windows Server 2k8 R2. CF is patched through update 11. CF always fails to start after a reboot. I go into manually start the service and it takes 3-4 tries (and 10-15 minutes) to get it going. This is usually the case if I ever try to restart the service manually (without reboot), although occasionally it starts back up with no problem.

If I try to start the service from the command line, it hangs at "INFO: starting servlet engine: Apache Tomcat/7.0.23" for about 8-10 minutes before finally continuing on and starting up. This jibes with the service problems as the Windows service probably gets tired of waiting on the servlet engine and gives up.

Any idea as to what could be causing the delay?

cfpresentation marginTop?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 23 Dec 2013 20:50:11 GMT

I'm trying to create Powerpoint files on the fly and all works well except for the placement of the content. It seems to center the content vertically regardless of my margin settings. Supposedly cfpresentationslide takes marginTop/Bottom/Right/Left as attributes, but it doesn't appear to affect the placement of the content. The main problem is that I'd like to add my own header to the slide and have it statically located at the top of each slide. This doesn't appear to be possible. I've tried every HTML/CSS trick I know of. Just outputting a simple "Hello World" yields a slide with several hundred pixels of white space at the top. It almost like it saves room for the header by default, but doesn't give you any way to write into that area.

Anyone know of any tricks?

Thanks,

Eric Richardson

in-place upgrade of CF10 from 32-bit to 64-bit?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:36:50 GMT

We initially installed CF10 32-bit because we had some legacy COM objects that needed to run. We've finally gotten rid of those objects and I would like to convert to 64-bit. Is there an easy way to convert/upgrade that would preserve all/most/some of my configuration? Or do I have to do a complete uninstall/reinstall?

losing jsessionID when making cfhttp call?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 10 Sep 2012 20:36:38 GMT

For years, I've used <cfhttp url="http://myserver.com/myFile.cfm?#session.urlToken#"> to do screengrabs and use the currently-logged-in user's session scope. This has not been a problem under CF8/IIS6 environment. I've recently moved the application to a CF10/IIS7 environment and it does not like this call. The entire application is managed by cflogin, so it just returns my login screen. After doing some digging, I can tell that the jsessionID the cfhttp response header contains is not the same jsessionID I am sending via the url. Of course, this causes the server to think it's a new session and return the login screen.

I know setting this up with SSL is a pain and I've wrestled with it a lot in the past, but this setup is strictly http over port 80.

Things I've tried:

* uncheck "Use UUID for cftoken" in cf admin

* uncheck "Enable Global Script Protection"

* parsed the session.urlToken variable to send each variable (CFID, CFTOKEN, JSESSIONID) as a url/cookie via cfhttpparam

* turned off "HTTPOnly" for session cookies

I've even looked at the resulting #session.urltoken# variable and tried to hijack the session from another machine - no dice. It still just returns the login screen. On my CF8 box, I can hijack the session with this information.

Any clues as to things to try? My hunch is that it is a security thing and I thought for sure unchecking "Enable Global Script Protection" would solve it, but it did not. I know the jsessionid format is a little different with CF10 (CF9?) as it is "XXXXXXXX.cfusion". I thought the ".cfusion" might have been causing confusion somewhere in the setup - IIS thinking it was a file type and denying it via request filtering? But, that wasn't the case either.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

TOC page number as roman numerals, body as decimal

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 28 Sep 2012 20:02:16 GMT

Pretty new to the DDX world. I'm using Cold Fusion 8 to generate a PDF. I then use DDX to open the pdf, add a Table of Contents and headers/footers. The Footers contain the page numbers. Right now, the page numbers just start with the TOC (1) and go to the nd of the document.

I'm trying to figure out a way to number the TOC with roman numerals, but the rest of the document with decimals. Right now, I'll accept i, ii, iii, iv, 5, 6, 7... but I'm guessing my customer will want the numbering started over at 1 when we hit the body of the document. I'll cross that bridge later. Right now, I can't seem to find a way to mix the numbering. I know PageLabel is the place to attack, but I've had no luck so far. My basic DDX markup looks like:

<DDX>

...

</Header>

...

</Footer>

</TableOfContents>

...

</Header>

...

</Footer>

</PDF>

</PDF

</DDX>

I've placed <PageLabel format="lowerRoman"> at various placing with varying degrees of success. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Dreamweaver ignoring on tag close?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 14:12:28 GMT

Just recently upgraded to CS4. I've always had my preferences set to close the nearest open tag whenenver I type "</". For some reason, it is ignoring the <cfquery> tag, which has led to several errors in the format of:

</cffunction>

It goes to close the nearest tag, ignores cfquery and closes cffunction. I checked a co-worker's machine and it does the same thing. He has his set to automatically close a tag whenever he opens it - ie, <cfoutput></cfoutput>. When he types <cfquery>, he immediately gets the pull down list of closing tags, rather than the automatic </cfquery>. We changed his preferences to match mine and it did the same thing.

I've ran the update tool and CS4 is up to date. Any ideas?

Multiple rows of tabs?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 14:16:22 GMT

I have a tabbed interface that I created via a 3rd party js package. I have logic that looks at how many tabs the user has access to and splits it into 2 rows of tabs if they can see more than X. I'd like to convert this to a cflayout tabbed-menu, but I haven't been able to find a way to do multiple rows of tabs - ie, what you would get when you look at your System Properties on a windows machine.

Is there any way to do multiple rows of tabs in a cflayout?

TIA,

Eric
