Subclipse Error

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 15:09:29 GMT

I just installed Coldfusion Builder with the Subclipse plugin and when I am in the Team Synchronization view I cannot right click on files.

I get the errors "Unhandled event loop exception" and "Could not find new menu: synchronize" reported in the error log window.

I have so far tracked this down to a problem with Aptana, which is built into CF Builder, but I can't figure out a way to fix it.

This happens both in CF Builder standalone and Eclipse Plugin.

Has anybody seen this and have any ideas how to fix it?

Synchronization via FTP

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 03 Mar 2014 18:06:42 GMT

Is CFBuilder dropping FTP synchronization, or is it just not part of Thunder yet? Or should I install some 3rd party plugin. Yes I know FTP synchronization is old school.

How to turn off automatic variable code suggest for a single page?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 17 Sep 2014 17:40:32 GMT

Does anyone know how to turn off the code assist feature where CFBuilder tries to assist you by listing all the variables on the page? I have a CFC with over 3000 lines and it causes CFBuilder to hang/freeze like you wouldn't believe. I'd like to turn off this feature for large files (or at least see if I can tune the feature to be smarter about what variables it suggests).

Does anyone know how to disable this feature on a specific template or turn this feature off altogether? Note: I do want to keep the tag attribute suggestion if possible.

3 annoying changes in CFBuilder 3

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 24 May 2014 16:46:34 GMT

There are 3 changes from CFB2 to CFB3 that are pretty annoying and I am wondering if anyone has a fix?

Word-wrap has seemed to have disappeared. It is no longer in preferences in the same place, nor any other that I can find? I have found an eclipse plugin to take care of this for now, but wondering if there is an official way to do this within CFB3 or was this an Aptana feature that Adobe decided not to implement in their rewrite? I would think word-wrap to be pretty basic functionality in an editor...
In Outline View I always set the filter to CFFUNCTION only. When using cfscript based components, the outline view is polluted by any javadoc comments you may have. There is a new toggle button available: "Show Function Only" but it defaults to off and so you continually need to click this button for every cfc you have open to hide the mis-parsed comment detritus. Very annoying. There must be a way to either remove these comments altogether or at least have that toggle feature stick to on?
Continuing in Outline View: there now seems to be a maximum viewable width to display functions. The view now truncates function names with an ellipsis no matter how wide you make the Outline View. This makes the view completely unusable with longer function names... especially where those function names begin similarly... I cannot find any settings to alter this?

I am running CFB3 as a plugin on 64-bit Kepler on Win 7 and Win 8.1 64-bit.

Coldfusion Builder 3... Poor poor poor

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 13 Aug 2014 11:56:13 GMT

I have to admit that I am greatly disappointed with CFB 3. The loss of something as simple as FTP synchronization is ridiculous. The time I have spent trying to find a work around has been fruitless. The eclipse RES plugin has a bug, so it doesn't work. Installing the Aptana plugin is somewhat functional but you are constantly jumping between views to code. The built in "import/export" feature is a sad excuse for FTP synchronization and generally doesn't work. Code hinting is hit and miss, loss of word warp and the list goes on. Further more, the interface is not intuitive and help documentation is spotty and less then helpful.

I've installed CFB 3 as an eclipse plugin (which runs faster and smoother) as well as stand alone. Both being a vast disappointment. To further my disappointment, it's quite apparent that no one from the CFB team monitors or responds to any posts on this forum.

Coldfusion Builder 3: Tag Editor, does it exist?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 30 Jul 2014 18:43:30 GMT

I see in the help file for ColdFusion Builder 2 that it used to have a tag editor. The keystroke doesn't seem to do anything and I can't find anything in ColdFusion Builder 3 that resembles a tag editor. I am new to ColdFusion Builder as I have been using HomeSite for a long time, but finally decided to make the jump. I am really liking everything I see, but the one thing I am having a hard time with is being able to do standard HTML, like loading an image tag in an editor and choose a picture and it will pull the width and height for me. Or being able to just drag an image onto my code and have it create the image tag with the link.

I have searched around the program and finding nothing, can anyone shed any light on whether this exists or not? If not, what is the way I should get used to.

Right now I see that I can press Ctrl+Space when I am on existing image file name in a <img > tag and I can double-click to open the file editor, but then I have to double-click on the filename and it just inserts it in between my image text, so then I have to modify the text, and then I need to open windows explorer and properties on the image so I can get the size and then update those fields.

Thank you for any light you can shed on this, because I really do like the editor now. I did try CFB2 and it was crashing and clunky so I kept using HomeSite, but now I think I will make the change.

ColdFusion Builder 3 Settings Reset on Restart

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 22 Jun 2014 22:18:53 GMT

I've downloaded the ColdFusion Builder 3 trial and am experiencing some odd and very annoying behavior.

I've customized some code editor text font and color settings. I've added an entry to the CF Servers panel for an instance of ColdFusion 10 running inside a VMWare virtual server on my laptop.

When I restart Eclipse, all the code customizations I've made are reverted back to the default install settings and the entry in my CF Servers panel is gone.

I've been an IntelliJ user for well over a year, but in doing much more cfscript-based development the CF Plugin for IntelliJ is proving to be a hindrance so I thought I'd give CFB 3 a try and see if there were any improvements over CFB 2. However, I can't take this kind of behavior. Hopefully someone can give me a setting or someone else has seen this before and can give me an idea of where to start looking.

I have CF Builder installed as a plugin into Eclipse Kepler 64-bit for Mac. I added the CF Builder update site and have updated to CF Builder 3.0.0.290000. I also previously installed as the standalone version with no additional plugins and experienced the same behavior.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Undo Buffer Issue

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 10 Mar 2014 19:26:12 GMT

I have the Thunder Beta installed as a standalone installation. I have also found this bug with Thunder installed as a plugin to Eclipse

Since using Thunder, I have noticed that my undo buffer is not working correctly.

I get around 25-30 undos before Eclipse will no longer undo anything further.

The undo history size setting defaults to something like 200 and I have tried upping it to 1000 to see if it helped.

It doesn't seem to matter what I do, but I can only undo 25 or so actions before I can not undo anything.

This happens with imported projects as well as new ones. Existing cfml/cfc files as well as newly created ones.

I'm running windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1 64-bit. The CFBuilder version is shown in the image below.

and now want to install a different full version of the plug-in but cannot do that without uninstalling this one first. However, I have been unable to Uninstall the plug-in no matter what I have tried. The "easy" way using the uninstall button is not available to ( see image below). I have tried numerous suggestions for manual uninstall but the plug-in will not go away, and thus prevents me from installing the newer version. Upgrading is not allowed. I have been using "Run As Administrator" etc to make sure I have adequate permissions.

At this point I am feeling stumped and may just have to uninstall CFBuilder and start over unless someone can suggest something new to try.

Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions that can be offered.

ColdFusion Builder 2 HANGS

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 12 Dec 2013 17:27:46 GMT

I downloaded and installed the CF Builder 2 (Version: 2.0.1 Build: 282422) and almost daily (but not at any regular time or interval) it hangs, then I have to manually kill the process, and often lose some work. When this happens the CPU resources get pegged at 100% or more by the ColdFusion Builder 2 process. I can't identify any specific operation that appears to cause this either; I'm almost always just typing code when the freeze occurs.

I'm on Mac OSX 10.9, 16GB RAM

Has anyone else experienced this? Any work arounds out there?

I'm going to be running out of free trial time and unfortunately there is no way I can justify paying for this product. I was using Dreamweaver (which I still like and may go back to) but has anyone else seen/used a good CFML editor?

Thanks in advance,

RDS and SSL

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 18 Mar 2013 16:20:41 GMT

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to configure a CF Environment using Adobe ColdFusion10 on my Mac Mini running Lion Server and on the client site CF Builder 2.0 on my MB Pro running Mountain Lion 10.8.3. My Webserver uses a self-created root certificate for SSL connection. Simple .cfm files I copied to the webroot manually are as well displayed as any other .html or .php sites uploaded to the server (which I assume means that the connector is working properly). Also the CF Administrator Website is working fine using the https:// connection at port 443.

The main problem I'm constantly running into is, that when I'm trying to configure a remote server in CF Builder (… defining port 443 for SSL connection) the status of the configured server is "Running" when the option for RDS "Enable SSL" is disabled. When I try to connect to the sample databases in the "RDS Dataview" with this settings I get the following message:

An error has occurred. See error log for more details.

For input string: "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

<title>400 Bad Request</title>

</head><body>

<h1>Bad Request</h1>

<p>Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.<br />

Reason

When I'm enabling the SSL option the server status suddenly turns to "Stopped". The RDS Dataviewer prompts the following message:

"peer not authenticated"

So I'm absolutely stuck here and don't know what to do or where to start solving this problem. Probably somebody can help me out here. Any advice is highly appreciated.

Problem with adding a server in Coldfusion Builder 3

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 14 Oct 2014 07:58:21 GMT

My Coldfusion 11 server is running in a virtual machine.

When I add a server I enter following data:

Server Name: CF KOV

Application Server: CF+Tomcat

Host name: 192.168.0.100

Webserver port: 8500

Select 'Is Remote'

This will add a server which status is 'Stopped'.

This adminstart.bat isn't installed.

Where can I find this bat file?

Should I stop the service 'ColdFusion 11 Application Server' and all other Coldfusion services?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 09 Sep 2014 15:51:45 GMT

I feel like this is a really simple and stupid question and should be easy to figure out, but I can't.

I am relearning ColdFusion after 12 years out of the IT field. I am using the ColdFusion 9 Getting Started:Volume 1 book. In Chapter 7 it states that I need to edit the Application.cfc file so that I can edit the database rather than just selecting from the database. I can't seem to find anything related to that file in any search. In my ColdFusion 11 Administrator I have set this mySQL database to be able to be edited, but ColdFusion Builder 3 doesn't seem to allow any editing of the tables. I have not had much luck searching for help regarding this on the internet either. My biggest problem so far is getting ColdFusion Builder to talk with my mySQL database properly so I can actually get on with relearning ColdFusion and writing code. Frustrating!!

CFB 3 Freezes when I edit a particular file

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 19 Aug 2014 22:33:21 GMT

I thought CFB 3 was going to be good for me, but the more I use it the more I am finding strange behaviors. Lately I have one particular file that is quite large that keeps crashing whenever I try to edit it. I have to open that particular file in another program and make my changes. The rest of my site is working well so far, but that page (Coldfusion Component page) makes CFB 3 hang forever. I have to force a shutdown.

If anyone knows, where can I pull up any log files that will help me know what might be the cause to help submit a bug? I would love to get this fixed, but not sure how to reproduce or find what caused it.

I've been a ColdFusion and Flex developer for way to many years now. Pretty much turned that horse into glue if ya know what I mean.

CF Builder 3 and document root of the server

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 05 May 2014 13:39:08 GMT

I'm trying to test CF Builder 3 before deploying it to user machines so I can help them with the initial setup. However I'm confused by the process of linking code to the built in CF Express and the online help files are either lacking what I need to I just can't find the right document.

Environment

Windows 7 64bit & Windows 8.1 64bit
CF Builder 3 installed to the default c:\ location
CF Express installed with CFB3 into the default location inside of CFB3
SVN repositories located in the User's Document folder

I checked out a fresh copy of one of the repos and then added it to CFB3 by doing File -> New ColdFusion Project -> and changed the project location to be the repo location.

Repo structure

Project_Name - CFB3 project points to here
- CustomTags
- scripts
- webroot - executable CF website code resides here

I then went to Run -> Run while I had index.cfm selected and I get this error.

So I went to the Project -> Properties -> ColdFusion Project -> Additional Source and I added a Link that pointed to the path of the code. However when I go back and try to run it again I keep getting that same error message above.

What gives, why can't I get the code to run? Do I seriously have to move all of the user's repos into the C:\ColdFusionBuilder3\ColdFusion\cfusion\wwwroot\ folder just to get them to work?

Getting Started with CFBuilder - A Question About Project Settings

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 25 Apr 2014 03:29:14 GMT

Hello All,

I'm just getting my feet wet with CFBuilder and giving it a spin after over a decade's worth of experience with Dreamweaver and I have a question about setting up my work environment.

First of all, I have two computers that I mainly work from. My home desktop computer, and a laptop for when I'm on the road. I keep all of my web site project files syncronized between the two computers using Dropbox.

I've noticed that when I create a new project in CFBuilder it stores a few files in my project root like ".project" and "settings.xml". It looks like "settings.xml" stores information about which CFBuilder web server should be used for the project. Unfortunately this messes things up for me a bit because on my desktop a web site project url might be: http://desktop/myProject/ and on my laptop the project url could be http://laptop/myProject.

The reason this isn't a problem in Dreamweaver is because dreamwevaer stores its configuration/preferences outside of my project folders so I can essentially define any testing server I want for both the desktop and laptop.

Is there a way to configure CFBuilder to store project settings outside of the project folder? Or does anyone have a suggestion for someone like me who syncronizes their project files from their laptop to their desktop?

Thanks in advance for helping out a CFBuilder noob.

Creating a new file

Yes, as simple as it sounds, I cannot figure out how to do this simple a task in Builder.

Used Studio for years, then Homesite, now forced to move to Builder. (Call me old fashioned.)

Already I don't like Builder. It's SLOW.

Huge learning curve ... BUT how the h3ll do I create a new template?

I mean File New .. done .. .nope.

> ColdFusion page ... I cannot type in the Name field. No projects are available ... don't need one!

> File, nope ...

> Open existing template, save as new name, then open that template, and wipe out contents? (Not joking)

> Ctrl-N ... select a wizard.

Is this seriously the editor CF developers are now using?

I am forced to switch as

a) New hardware for new workstations. Old hardware "died".

1. Windows 7, cannot install Homesite into it.

2. Did manage to install Homesite (older version) ... trial for 30 days ... but it would not let me enter valid serial number after trial.

Holy c0w.

Or do I go to Dreamweaver?

Or just retire and forget Adobe ever existed?

Import whole bevy of files into ColdFusion Builder

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 22 Jun 2013 15:57:41 GMT

Hi! I'm new at this, so forgive me if this is a silly question.

I have installed ColdFusion 10 and ColdFusion Builder 2 Update 1. I have a whole lot of files residing in various folders that I have copied onto our development server where ColdFusion resides, and need to import them to a project or create a new project with them so I can edit them in the ColdFusion Builder (did I say that right?)

The problem is, when I import or start a new project, all the files do not come over. When I add it using a linked folder, and try to run the index.cfm page, I get "Selected file is not in the document root of the server. If the project is not in the document root, created a linked folder to the document root (selecting Project Properties > ColdFusion Project).

I believe I have already created a linked folder by going to linked folders for the project. I can see all my files and folders on the left. When I go to this dialog area, I see my linked folder, but I still get that error.

The gist of it all is this -- I need to access all my files (including Application.cfc) in this structure as I inherited it all with little documentation. Is this possible?

There are no silly questions, only silly people who ask questions. Please forgive me if I am one of them. Thank you!

SVNAnt and CFBuilder 2

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 20:14:26 GMT

Can someone out there please tell me how to get svnant installed in CFBuilder 2? I'm already using ant for some stuff within CFB with no problems, and I need to be able to connect it to subversion. But, no matter what I do, I keep getting the below error:

BUILD FAILED

Problem: failed to create task or type svn

Cause: The name is undefined.

It's throwing that error as soon as it hits my <svn> tag in my build.xml file. Everything I can find online about this says that I do not have svnant installed correctly.

I've gone into properties and added the jars to my Ant Home Entries, but that doesn't seem to do anything. I've added them to every directory in program files/CFBuilder that looks like it can hold a jar, and that hasn't helped. I've moved the jars around and restarted CFBuilder about a dozen times and still get the error.

So I really don't know what else to do. Anyone know how to get svnant up and running in CFB 2?

Losing Subversion Control

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 15:21:24 GMT

I am working with the latest ColdFusion Builder on a Mac, with our project under subversion control. I am not having any issues.

My co-worker, is using the latest ColdFusion Builder on a Windows box and he is having problem after problem.

He can create the new project, pulling it from the subversion server no problem. However, seemingly intermittently, some of his files, or the entire project lose their version control.

We've tried pulling it down again from subversion and it works for a bit, but then it happens again.

This is extremely frustrating and wasting a lot of time.

Has anyone else experienced this, and solved it?

What can we do to fix this?

Thank you.

hi complaint about coldfusion builder

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 12:45:08 GMT

I do not know who to complain to directly, so I wish that Adobe had not sent me coldfusion builder. I have had it for four or five days and have obsessively tried to add a server. This is, according to all help files is simple. I follow the help files and reach a point where the file does not co-respond to the installation on my machine. The installation has followed the steps in the installation instructions so i do not know how to change anything to make it more correct than the default. This is the most frustrated i have ever been by a piece of software and it was one i did not ask for. Now that i have it i feel i have to be able to make it work but i am wasting days getting nowhere.

unable to start local server

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 01 Dec 2010 09:33:14 GMT

by some miracle i got a coldfusion development enviroment installed at my workplace. i coldfusion9 installed for local development at home and i have coldfusion builder trial installed.

i can add the local server in jrun and i can add it in codlfusion builder but it cannot be started or stopped...

maybe im just a nub and am doing something incorrectly. i checked several guides as to how to add a local server in cfbuilder.

ive checked on my cf9 instalation adn thats done correctly.

ive enabled iis7 including ftp server web management tools app dev features http features and health/diagnostics.

ok with that out of the way:

i cannot start the local server

it says make sute the oport isnt in use or that the server isnt already running. yet the status say stopped.

each time i try to debug an app IE says cannot display and firefox says connection interupted.

CFUPDATE versus SQL UPDATE

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 14:05:28 GMT

I have followed the manuals'

code for updating a record in the database via a webpage, and the update page produces an error. I have received two or three errors, but the update is never successful. Below, I have the templates - with their code. Please help.

(My server I rent space from doesn't yet use Access 2007)

The database file: vwp.mdb

The table: swdc_lsn (the table of lesson plans)

Fields:

swdc_lsnID (Autonumber)

swdc_lsn_pre_ (choice of "The", "An", "A" Byte)

swdc_lsn (Title of lesson plan: Text-100)

swdc_lsn_n_ (lesson plan sequence number: Byte)

swdc_lsn_tpc_ (Topic of this lesson plan - dropdown fed by table: swdc_tpc_rf: LongInteger)

swdc_lsn_del_x (deletion of this lesson plan is emminent: checkbox)

The table: swdc_tpc_rf (the table of topics)

Fields:

swdc_tpc_rfID (Autonumber)

swdc_tpc_r (Title of Topic: Text-100) {I originally spelled this field as swdc_tpc_rf, but changed it to experiment}

swdc_tpc_crs_ (Course - dropdown fed by table: swdc_crs_rf: LongInteger)

swdc_tpc_del_x (deletion of this lesson plan is emminent: checkbox)

====================================================================

In summary, I get a little confused with when to use the number signs and when not to, becuase I have noticed that sometimes, the CF code doesn't use them! Also, the VALUE attribute in the INPUT objects - I beleive - is the database field name, but I noticed that the update page refers to the NAME attribute, ie. form.objectname instead of the value (which is the database field name).

TailView doesn't play nice with CFAdmin

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 05 Jun 2010 10:42:56 GMT

G’day
I have a custom log file created by <cflog>. I was watching it with tailview, running a process logging data to it.

The file was getting long, so I archived it in CFAdmin.

I received no error, and the file was truncated, but no archive file seemed to be created (eg: mystuff.log.1). Also CF was no longer apply to add log entries to it, until I completely closed CFB (so not simply closing the log in tailview, or closing the tailview view worked).

I’ve just tried to replicate this, and the lack of archive file occurred again, but this time CF can still write to the file, but when I returned to CFB, it has completely frozen. It’s been frozen for about 5min now. I’ve killed CF wondering whether that might help, but no.

I don’t think CFB should be interfering with CF’s operations like that.

Edit->Format not working, also Eclipse Views disappearing

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 02:33:59 GMT

Doing Edit->Format or ctrl-shift-f to reformat code is working only about 10% of the time for me. When it doesn't work (90% of time) I look in the error trace and I see a Java Null Pointer reference to CFB completing the operation successfully.

Wierd too -- never happened to me in Eclipse -- when I do Window->Show View->[console, or Navigator, etc], and then if I click the mouse back in my source code window, the newly added view disappears.

Is anyone else seeing either of these. I'm using the Adobe newly released product version of ColdFusion Builder. Thanks Much.

Eclipse completely freezes - must force quit process

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 21:10:04 GMT

This is happening frequently... a few times per day. The entire eclipse workbench becomes unresponsive. I'm able to close the workbench via the close button in the main window, but I also have to go to my task manager and force quit the eclipse process.

It's unclear what I'm doing that causes the exception. It's happened when editing, when switching between editor windows, and also when switching between tabs (search to snippets). Seems to be related to an Unhandled loop exception that keeps showing up in my error log.

I'm also getting a "Could not instantiate provider org.tigris.subversion.subclipse.core.svnnature for project email_alert_service." Not sure where this is coming from.

And I'm also getting a "NLS missing message: CFRemoteServer_error_readPort in: com.adobe.ide.coldfusion.server.core.messages" in my log along with other "NLS unused message" errors.

I've attached a log after restarting eclipse.

I'm running:

Windows 7 x64

Eclipse Classic 3.5.1 (32 bit)

Build id: M20090917-0800

ColdFusion Builder beta 3 plugin

No IIS showing in ColdfusionServer Settings

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 15:20:34 GMT

I installed one time with the built in CF Server on port 8501 added CF Builder to Flash Builder 4. Now I am trying setting up just CF Builder on a different machine without Flash Builder 4 using IIS as the local server.

I add the local IIS and remote IIS servers in the RDS panel but when I try to add these into a project they do not show up as option in the ColdFusion Server Settings panel. If I try to "Add Server" I get an error that the server already exists.

I haven't found instructs for setting this up for IIS yet. What needs to be done for IIS?
