Can't verify MySQL DataSource

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 19:30:12 GMT

Hi There,

I've got problem with setting up a new DataSource on MySQL 4/5 driver. From the beginning:

1. I've installed ColdFusion 9 (Developer Edition), with JRun 4 option. I've done configuration of Apache (conf file, and execution file)

2. When i want to set up new DataSource with MySQL 4/5 driver, i'm getting error.

For Example:

CF Data Source Name: MyDataSource

Database: MyBase

Server: localhost

Port: 3306

Username: user

Password: password

After that. I have information:

Connection verification failed for data source: MyDataSource

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException:
Could not create connection to database server. Attempted reconnect 3
times. Giving up.

The root cause was that:
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException:
Could not create connection to database server. Attempted reconnect 3
times. Giving up.

The, in DataSource menu in Administration i see that base, but with this error under entry with name of DataSource.

What i'm doing wrong?

I have tried to install MangoBlog, but i can't do this with that issue. When i try, i get:

Could not find the ColdFusion component or interface CFIDE.scripts.MangoBlog_1.4.1.components.utilities.PreferencesFile.

I think it's about that error which i've described.

Anyone got some ideas to this ?

Greets,

Ordering data type varchar

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 12 Nov 2014 20:25:49 GMT

I keep forgetting on how to order a column with datatype varchar

One of my column for pricing has these values: 5,12,15,18,21,23,31 etc when I cfoutput my query result I got the list showing as: 12,15,18,21,23,31,5

It should be from less price to higher prices: 5,12,15,18,21,23,31 but I can't make this happening because the datatype for this column is varchar.

I know there is a way around but I can't remember, can someone help me?

My query is real simple:

select ranges, prices

from fees

order by prices and this doesn't work

cfinput validation not working - how do I debug?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 17:25:06 GMT

I just need to make the field required, so I have this :

However, when I just click submit, the form submits and the validation does not work. What is wrong with my code ?

I also have some javasript validation, so on cfform, I have this :

But I don't think the onSubmit will override the cfinput validation, will it ?

Seems simple enough, but I just cannot see what the problem is.

CFPOP suddenly stopped working

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 26 Jul 2006 16:13:08 GMT

We have a CF MX 7 web page that runs at scheduled intervals during the day, does CFPOPs to pull off email from a single email account, processes the requests in the emails and sends back the information requested in a new email to the requestor.

We use the following CFPOP command:
<CFPOP ACTION="GetHeaderOnly" SERVER="192.168.1.99" USERNAME="abcde" PASSWORD="abcde" NAME="getMail">
which has worked fine for about two years, but now gets the following error:

Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.
This exception was caused by: javax.mail.AuthenticationFailedException: EOF on socket

The error occurred in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ScheduledTasks\EmailTest.cfm: line 10

8 : <body>
9 :
10 : <CFPOP ACTION="GetHeaderOnly" SERVER="192.168.1.21" USERNAME="abcde" PASSWORD="abcde" NAME="getMail">
11 : <cfoutput>#getMail.RecordCount#</cfoutput><br />
12 :

We have checked that the email account is receiving emails successfully and can view the emails. We verified that the login and password are correct. We are not aware of any changes on CF server or mail server (they are both in-house). The CF Administrator can verify its connection to the mail server and CFMAIL works fine.

Any ideas?

date and datetime types with cfqueryparam

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 15:38:05 GMT

How do you get a date and a datetime type into a table with cfqueryparam ?

For date I have tried <cfqueryparam value=#createodbcdate(thedate)# cfsqltype="CF_SQL_DATE" maxlength="23" null="yes"> and got NULL in the table.

For time I tried <cfqueryparam value=#now()# cfsqltype="CF_SQL_TIME" maxlength="23" null="yes"> but the date part of the datetime value was 1970-01-01.

In the table, types for these columns are datetime.

CFFLUSH and CFLOCATION don't work together?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 22:18:27 GMT

I got a codes example from http://tutorial209.easycfm.com/ which is perfect for what I need. This little code is using cfflush to display "please wait" message.

It worked perfectly when I applied this code to my action page BUT unfortunately after the action page is done processing, normally a cflocation is ran at the end of action page to show the report page.

When I did not include this cfflush and the script, after finish processing my action page the cflocation called the report page but when I include cfflush and the script on my action page, cflocation is prevented from being called, so the process stop at the action page and I don't get to see my report page.

Does cfflush for some reason preventing cflocation from running???

Here is my code:

<cfflush interval="1">

<p id="wait" style="color:red; background-color: #CCCCCC; width: 200px; height: 50px;">Please wait while the data is processing.</p>

<cfif>

<cfif>

<cfif>

</cfif>

if (document.getElementById) {

wait

.style.display="none";}

</script>

</cfif>

Does anyone know why my cflocation doesn't get call when I include cfflush and the script????

Can't find answer to Query Of Queries runtime error

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 19:22:36 GMT

Not only I browsed this forum but also googled this problem but unfortunnately I have no luck in finding the answer.

All I did was writing this simple query:

select SSN,BirthDate from myquery where SSN <> '' OR BirthDate <> ''

</cfquery>

and I got this error:

Query Of Queries runtime error.
Comparison exception while executing <>. Unsupported Type Comparison Exception: The <> operator does not support comparison between the following types: Left hand side expression type = "DOUBLE". Right hand side expression type = "STRING".

I tried the following and did not work either, still got the same error.

select SSN,BirthDate from myquery

where SSN <> <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" value=""/>

OR BirthDate <> <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" value=""/></cfquery>

Has someone ever encountered the same problem and know how to solve it?

Guestbook Spam Prevention

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 27 Feb 2007 15:54:06 GMT

Apparently there is a guestbook spambot that has located my comments page. I recently deleted over 5K entries from viagra, porn, etc spammers. They entered their name, email, and subject with what appears to be valid data and then they enter thier URL in the comment field. I assume this is some type of automated script and I am hoping someone can give some guidance on preventing this, perhaps some type of validation that rejects all entries with html?

Trouble Installing ColdFusion 8

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 16:27:55 GMT

Hello, I just downloaded and tried to install the developer version of CF8. It said the install worked properly but for one 'nonfatal' error - nonfatal, maybe, but the cfm pages which were working yesterday in CF5 are not working now (HTTP error 505).

I first learned about this error at the end of the installation process, in a little window saying 'An unhandled exception ('System.Net.Sockets.SocketException') occurred in JNBDotNetSide.exe [2656]', and offering to debug it using Microsoft's .NET 2005 (I have that installed as well, since at first I thought I would have a contract using that - which I would have had to learn, since I'm ignorant of it - that contract didn't pan out, but I do have a new contract using ColdFusion, in which I was a good programmer 5 years ago).

Then the closing dialog of the installation process also notified me of the error, and referred me to the installation log, which stated: 'Web Server Configuration error: JNDI port 2930 for server ColdFusion is not active'. Elsewhere, the log recommended that I run wsconfig.exe. When I do that, the only options I see are Add... and Exit. And when I click on Add..., I am told:

Could not connect to any JRun/ColdFusion servers on host localhost. Possible causes:

o Server not running
- Start Macromedia JRun4 or ColdFusion 8 server

o Server running
- JNDI listen port in jndi.properties is locked by TCP/IP firewall on server
- host restriction in security.properties blocking communication with server

What should I do?

I should point out:

(a) Although I was once an excellent Application programmer, and should be again once I get back in practice, I have never known much about operating systems, etc., and the wider environment in which I write code. If it's a simple matter of starting the Coldfusion 8 server, could someone tell me how? For what it's worth, in Windows Task Manger, Processes, I don't see anything which I would recognize as the CF8 server, although I do see CF8DotNetsvc.exe.

(b) I currently use localhost:8080 for my local web host; localhost:80 stopped working after a friend helped me set up my computer to run a visual phone application (D-link); that required it taking over the usual octal IP address, as I recall (198.xxx.xxx.1 maybe? Sorry, I don't remember exactly, but I thought this might be relevant).

(c) When I installed CF8, I selected IIS, which is installed and working on my PC.

Thanks for your help!

Can't connect to a mysql database with CF 7.0

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 11:23:30 GMT

I'm trying to connect to a mysql database using ColdFusion 7.0. I got a Java error and found an answer in http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19170. This told me to download the following jar file from mysql: mysql-connector-java-3.1.10-bin.jar.

I did this and followed the instructions only to get the following error:

Connection verification failed for data source: JavaServer
[]java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver available for JavaServer, please check the driver setting in jrun-resources.xml, error: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver available for JavaServer, please check the driver setting in jrun-resources.xml, error: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

I'm not sure where to go from here and am finding no help on the internet when I google this error.

Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.

Installing CF 9 kills IIS 7.5 - Why??

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 29 Mar 2011 14:43:54 GMT

First let me say thanks to anyone who can help me as I am now 1 week into this and getting no where...

System info:

Windows 7 Home Premuim

Service Pack 1

IIS 7.5

Prior to installing (attempting) CF9 I had a site configured and working as part of some .NET work I am working on. The pages displayed and all was good. I decided to go ahead and install CF9 for some dev work. As soon as I use the Web Server Configuration Tool it knocks out everything

I can't even get http://localhost to display. My .NET pages no longer display and the CF admin does not display - NOTHING works. But as soon as I go back into the Web Server Configuration Tool and delete the server info everything work again but I am back to not having CF9 working.

Can anyone tell me what I am missing and/or doing wrong???

Thanks!!

Problem of using cflocation with cfhttp

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 17:17:26 GMT

We need after submit to the payment make redirect to the previous page if we receive error code. But cflocation doesn't work in this case. Simply nothing happens. Below simple example of code:

<cfhttp method="Post" url="https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll">
<cfhttpparam ...>

<cfset post_response = cfhttp.filecontent>
<cfset arrResponse = ListToArray(post_response, "|")>

<cfif arrResponse[1] NEQ 1>
<cflocation url="checkout.cfm">
</cfif>

How we can solve this problrm?
We tried to use instead of cflocation Java code:

<cfset tmpUrl = "https://www.site.com/checkout.cfm">
<cfscript>getPageContext().getResponse().sendRedirect(#tmpUrl#);</cfscript>

In this case we receive error:
"Response has already been committed"

Can CF5 be installed on Windows 7 Prof. Platform in a Windows XP Prof. Virtual Machine?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 17:25:03 GMT

I am trying to install Cold Fusion 5 on a Windows 7 platform in a XP Professional Virtual Machine. The software installed with no issues. However, I have run into a problem with configuring the software.

It has been 8 years since I last installed the software (on a Winows 2000 Professional platform) as the part of a certificate program, which I completed successfully and with many kudos at the time.

When I try to "browse a .cfm from my old class project ", in ColdFusion Studio, it says I need to do Server Development Mapping.

I log into the CF Admiistrator and enter the logical name. But when I try to browse to retreive the physical location, I dont see the directory list, but instead the icon for "Not Found".

Can this software be loaded in a Virtual Machine environment, and if so, what do I need to do to remedy my problem?

first component . . .

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 23:47:50 GMT

Hi, I am trying take my stuff to the next level and currently trying to get this cfc to work. The component has two functions straight out of the Getting Started in cf8 book.

The fist function works just fine. It queries the database and returns a list forms.

The list page passes the variable to the details page like so: <a href="cfcDrivenDetails.cfm?rformID=#rformID#">

The second function in the component does not work. I keep getting the error below. The rformID field is numeric (autonumber - Access database)

I invoke the second function from the details page with the following code

It says the errror is in the cfc at the line in bold below - any help is hugely appreciated and really needed!

thanks - jim

The RFORMID argument passed to the getDetails function is not of type numeric.

If the component name is specified as a type of this argument, its possible that a definition file for the component cannot be found or is not accessible.

the component:

cfcomponent>
<cffunction name="list" access="public"
    returnType="query" output="false">


       

       <cfset var forms=" ">

Hello people. I'm trying to learn this concept but something just don't want to work.

I have tried some Ajax-codes like <cfgrid> or <cfinput type="datefield"...> but it did'nt work.

The calender, that should be shown is simply not there.

I've read that is no need to install some plug-in. Is that correct?

Please, what I am doing wrong.

Thank you.

Unable to start ColdFusion...

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 22:59:55 GMT

(I hope the only answer to this problem will not be a virus and the need to re-build my PC!)

Unable to access CF as localhost (both a website I wrote which had been working fine and http://localhost:8500/cfide/administrator), I checked out the Start Menu and sure enough, CF was being instructed to load a boot time. So I uninstalled CF8 and tried to install CF9, un-checking the parts about searching capabilities (Verity, etc.). I believe it claimed to install okay, but then my virus software, AVG, claimed that a CF program was... *malware*! I didn't have the common sense to write down the full pathname, but JRUN was somewhere in that pathname. So I completely uninstalled my Java, and reinstalled the latest version of Java from the java.com website. (In the interim, Firefox told me its new version was incompatible with the installed version of Flash Player and I better update that, attempted to do so, and on the first attempt, was told that "the download did not pass the integrity check", but it succeeded when I tried the second time.) But finally, with the latest version of Java installed, and went back to the task of installing CF9...

After first uninstalling the earlier install of CF9, I undertook the process again (from a saved copy of the .exe by the way, and will all other windows closed). This time I went with all the defaults (built-in server, search capabilities, remote capabilities). At length, I was told "You have successfully completed the first step" and "Now launch the Configuration Wizard in the default browser" (not exact quotes, but close). When I attempted to do so (by clicking Done, since the checkbox for launching the Configuration Wizard was checked), I received the message: "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1."

In other words, after all of the above, I'm back at square one. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I should try next?

Thanks for your help.

Javascript hel - how to limit date selection ?

I use the following javascript to validate a start and end date, and radio buttons on my form. What I need to do is limit the date selection to 30 days only. Anything more should display an error. So if I enter starting date of 1/1/2009 and ending date of 2/28/2009, then I should get a popup error. How can I do this with my exisintg code :

We have CF 8.0.1 (x64) installed onto W2K8 Server Core and IIS 7 (x64). (See code section for IIS 7 install command and CF silent installer.properties.) Remember, 2008 Core does not have a GUI, it's all command line.

We can view the default IIS page on port 80, and CF Admin on port 8500.

When we run the web server configurator (wsconfig) it throws a Java error about "side-by-side configuration".

Adobe support initially claimed the install was 32-bit until they walked us through 2 installs (one for standalone and the other for jrun), before they were convinced it was 64-bit.

Adobe support is currently (I hope) investigating why wsconfig throws a Java error when trying to configure IIS 7 for a connection from CF 8.0.1. Adobe support suggested that we complete the configuration manually and pointed us to some documentation:

1) http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/faq/
2) http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402572
3) http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?cont ext=ColdFusion_Documentation&file=00001755.htm
4) http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_19575&sliceId=2
5) http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_19575
6) http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?page=7&cid=224AA

What we need to do to complete the config is:
1) Configure the IIS Web Service Extensions for CF (jrunwin32.dll and jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll)
2) Configure the File Mappings (*.cfm, *.cfc, etc,)

Defining 'index.cfm' as a default document, at a global level is straightforward:
appcmd.exe set config /section:defaultDocument /enabled:true /+files.[value='index.cfm']

But the other 2 steps are more complex. Commands we are using are along the lines of:
REM adds web service extension (first security, then isapi filter)
appcmd.exe set config /section:system.webServer/security/isapiCgiRestriction /+"[path='%systemdrive%\Coldfusion8\runtime\lib\wsconfig\jrun_iis6.dll',allowed='True',gr oupId='Macromedia',description='Macromedia Server Extensions']"
appcmd.exe set config /section:system.webServer/security/isapiCgiRestriction /+"[path='%systemdrive%\Coldfusion8\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1\jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll',allowe d='True',groupId='Macromedia',description='Macromedia Server Extensions']"

appcmd.exe set config /section:system.webServer/isapiFilters /+"[name='Macromedia Server Extensions',path='%systemdrive%\Coldfusion8\runtime\lib\wsconfig\jrun_iis6.dll']"
REM the following needs a unique name
REM appcmd.exe set config /section:system.webServer/isapiFilters /+"[name='Macromedia Server Extensions',path='%systemdrive%\Coldfusion8\runtime\lib\wsconfig\1\jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll ']"

REM add file mappings (needs a path to a dll, which one?)
appcmd.exe set config /section:system.webServer/handlers /+[name='ISAPI-cfm',path='*.cfm',verb='*',modules='IsapiFilterModule',resourceType='File' ,requireAccess='Execute']

Any help with getting the IIS 7 configred for CF would be greatly appreciated.

Struct advice

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 16 Jan 2007 12:52:12 GMT

Hi,

I am new to structures and so i'm not really sure first if I've got the overall logic of how to use structures right and then second whether what I'm trying to do is achievable at all :-)

The code below is the beginnings of a wizard where i need the user to be able to 'go back' through the steps to make corrections, if necessary. I think I need to use updates for the struct but I'm not really sure how.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

How to check if a specific radio button value is selected

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 15 Jan 2007 13:26:54 GMT

Hi,

I am a newbie and need some help with validating radio button values. Basically, I need to set parameter values based on which radio button is selected. Below is my code but it doesn't work - I think "<cfif #price# is "l_350">" is wrong.
Please help!!!!

Thanks a lot in advance!

HTML:
<radio name="price" value="l_350"> $350
<radio name="price" value="m_300"> $300
<radio name="price" value="s_250"> $250

CF:
<cfif #price# is "l_350">
<cfparam name="t1" default="350">
<cfelse>
<cfparam name="t1" default="0">
</cfif>
<cfif #price# is "m_300">
<cfparam name="t1" default="300">
<cfelse>
<cfparam name="t1" default="0">
</cfif>... so on.

Another login problem - or is my query at fault?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 23 May 2008 12:43:36 GMT

I’m pretty new to CF (and coding in general) but am ‘enjoying’ the learning experience….slowly coming to grips with it but I will stress the ‘slowly’!

OK I have Ben Forta’s CFMX7 WACK and am trying to implement a basic user authentication/login page. (pretty much copied from Pages 624-628).

I am using MX7 and my testing server is on my local machine. My database is MS Access.

Here is my problem: when I submit the username and password in my form on the loginForm.cfm page, the LoginCheck.cfm page runs, but I receive the error message that
“The required parameter FORM.USERLOGIN was not provided. “

Since the first two lines of code on this page are
<cfparam name="FORM.userLogin" type="string">
<cfparam name="FORM.userPassword" type="string">

Pretty basic error, but one that I can’t quite understand. Where are the values going to…?

Here is the complete LoginForm code:

<cfif isDefined("Form.UserLogin")>
<cfinclude template="LoginCheck.cfm">
</cfif>

<html>
<head>
<title>Login</title>
</head>


<body onLoad="document.LoginForm.userLogin.focus();">

<cfform action="LoginCheck.cfm" name="LoginForm" method="post">

<input type="hidden" name="userLogin_required">
<input type="hidden" name="userPassword_required">
<table>
<tr><th colspan="2" align="center">Please Login</th></tr>
<tr>
<td align="right">
SwapperID:
</td>
<td>
<cfinput type="text"
name="userLogin"
size="20"
value=""
maxlength="4"
required="yes"
mask="AA99"
message="A valid ID is required. Please register if you don't have one."
>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="right">
Password:
</td>
<td>
<cfinput type="password"
name="userPassword"
size="20"
value=""
maxlength="100"
required="yes"
message="Password is required."
>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center">
<cfinput type="submit"
name="submit"
value="login"
validate="submitOnce">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</cfform>
</body>
</html>

[Aside: the “place cursor in "username" field when page loads” code doesn’t work either.]

PROBLEM2
I am wondering if this is a similar problem to that which I was getting when writing an update page (for members details). For some reason even though I was using a valid userID in the URL, I was passing empty strings when trying to populate the form fields. Ie #user.surname# (etc) was empty

Here is the query:

<cfquery datasource="mydns" name="user">
SELECT userID, firstname, surname, email, address, city, state, postcode, referal
FROM users
WHERE userID='#URL.userID#'
</cfquery>

Are these two problems related? Any help would be much appreciated.

Query of Queries

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 18:10:45 GMT

Apparently you can't use

<cfquery name="client_files" dbtype="query">
SELECT name
FROM dealer
WHERE left(name, 3) = 'BP_'
</cfquery>

you have to use

<cfquery name="client_files" dbtype="query">
SELECT name
FROM dealer
WHERE name like 'BP_%'
</cfquery>

what SQL syntax is CF using? I use Oracle, so I'm having difficulty figuring out how to do what I need. Now that I've found how to get the first three characters to match, I need to find the max of the last 14 characters (timestampe) to get the most recent one. Something tells me I can't use something like max(substr(name,length(name)-10,10)) inside the query.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

ColdFusion Page Title

On all of my cfm web pages the title of the page does not show up when you got to the page in IE or Firefox. Instead I just get Untitle Page in the tab. All of my html files show up fine. Is there something I need to change in my coldfusion files so that the page title shows up in the web browser?

Installation Failures?

I'm getting installation failures with Coldfusion 8.0.1 -- I'm assuming it's a java problem. What version of java should I be running? I'm running the latest and greatest, yet during install (before I get to any options), I get the following error:

Anyone have the same issue?

Serial Number

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 03 Sep 2014 22:34:49 GMT

I had the Master Collection 3 installed on an old laptop. I brought the software through my school's program. A few years after, I bought the MC 4 upgrade through my school. Since, I have had to purchase a new computer and I tried to install the MC4 upgrade. I can only use a trail version for 30 days because I need the MC 3 serial number which I cannot find.

Is there a way to retrieve the serial number associated with my account or Adobe ID? I have the serial number for the MC suite 4 but it will not activate unless I enter the MC suite 3 serial number. Hence, I can only use it on a trail basis for 30 days.

Thank you in advance.

Installing ColdFusion 11 in Windows 8.1

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 12 Jul 2014 22:45:10 GMT

I can't no longer download the 30 days trial for CF 10, all I can see is CF 11 when I go to http://www.adobe.com/go/trycoldfusion/ It is OK for me to try CF 11, it is not a problem because I have not submitted a purchase request to my department. I have no difficulties installing CF 11 on my Windows 8, the problem is on how to configure CF to work with IIS or vice versa. I found some suggestion to modify IIS8 into IIS7, I did it but I still can't get it to work with CF11. Now I already have IIS 7 instead of 8 and I still can't open my website nor CF administrator. I got internal server error message 500. Is this because I have to install some CF hot fixes or something else? there are not too many tutorials out there with CF 10 or 111 and Windows 8 IIS. Is there any easy step by step instruction either from Adobe or someone who has successfully install CF10 or 11 and don't mind sharing it with me?

Incorrect string value

Hi - we've just upgraded from cf8 to cf9 and are getting a fair few of these errors - "Error Executing Database Query. Incorrect string value: '\xE2\x80\x8BWe ...' for column" as we try to insert a row in the db.

The query is inserting the following string "We are seeking a" - nothing innocuous in the text and certainly no instance of this string '\xE2\x80\x8B' (despite what the error message says).

Has anyone else run into this, any ideas what's going on?

Thanks very much for any help you can offer as I'm completely stuck.

Windows firewall configuration

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 11 May 2014 21:40:57 GMT

What steps need to be taken with the firewall to permit access in the LAN to the development server running Cold Fusion's built-in web server? Simply opening port 80 doesn't seem to be sufficient; by default, Windows 2008 Server R2 is still blocking the programs themselves. Pasted below is one example, from a block notification, but I need a complete list so that I can be sure I've permitted access to everything that's needed. Even though the access is just from within the LAN, for testing purposes (at this time), I still like to keep the firewall running as a best practice.

Cheers,

Shane

Moving to CF10, Need help with Application.cfc

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 23 Apr 2014 20:44:58 GMT

I've been googling about how to work with Application.cfc since last week but I still have some questions and I can't find the answers.

My application is under the root (in unix) and there are many subfolders underneath it. Each sub-folder is hosting a different web application.

From what I read, I can create 1 root Application.cfc and then on subsequent sub-folder, when I need to have another Application.cfc on that level, I can create ProxyApplication (see below) and then create a sub-folder level Applicatin.cfc

So, when I set an application.DSN on my root Application.cfc, using proxyApplication I don't have to reset this dsn again in my sub folder level Application.cfc

Since my loginform.cfm and loginaction.cfm is right under root directory too, I also set OnsessionStart in the root Application.cfc to handle user login. Then this means, I don't have to reset session variable again anywhere because session.username, etc has been set on the highest level.

Is this correct?

In addition, Am I correct when I do the following:

1. Since I have root level and sub-folder level Application.cfc, I should set this.name with a different name, am I right?

On the root Application.cfc I set this.name = "StudentServices" because this represent the global application

On the sub-folder level's Application.cfc, I set this.name to "StudentServices_stdLoad" becaus this sub-folder only handle student load application.

2. On the root Application.cfc, I set the DSN to the application scope. So on the sub-folder level Application.cfc I can check if a particular db is working or not

because as awhole, in the global sense, this web application uses more than one Databases. Each sub-folder may use a database that is dfferent than the other sub folder.

Am I doing the right thing? Please advice

Below is example of what I have, Thank you!

I created a root Application.cfc under the root directory:

</cffunction>

</cffunction>

</CFCOMPONENT>

Then, in this root directory I also created a ProxyApplication:

</cfcomponent>

Then in the Sub-Directory, I can create a sub-folder level Application.cfc extending the root Application.cfc:

<cftry>

SELECT Count(*)

FROM MyTable

</cfcatch>

</cftry>

</cffunction>

CF10 Install freeze on Add Web Server Configuration

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 05 Mar 2014 18:25:48 GMT

Installing CF10 64-bit Dev edition on Win 7-64 and Apache 64 bit. When I get to the Add Web Server Configuration and click on the Configuration Directory button to open the directory tree, the install freezes. I have to stop the install using the task manager. Any ideas what is causing the problem. It's like the java app for the directory tree is not initializing and just freezing up everything. Java 7 update 25 is installed.

I was running CF9 with no problem on this machine. It was uninstalled before doing the CF10 install. I had no problems installing CF10 on my other machine

Why is there an offset when using DateConvert with DateCompare?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 05 Mar 2014 07:40:27 GMT

I'm developing on my local server and my current timezone is GMT +11 hours.

So, I was expecting that when I ran this code:

#DateCompare(date1,date2,'d' )#

that it would return a "-1" but it returned a "0" implying that the "day" was the same.

So, to double check I output:

DateConvert("Local2UTC", now())

grabbed its displayed value : {ts '2014-03-05 07:08:58'} and inserted that for comparison thus:
DateCompare("{ts '2014-03-05 07:08:58'}",date2,'d' ) and sure enough, it did return a "-1" reflecting that the day of date1 is indeed earlier than date 2.

Further investigation showed that I had to add my timezone difference to date2 in hours thus:

<cfset date2 = '2014-03-06 11:00:00> to get

#DateCompare(date1,date2,'d' )#

to return a "-1".

Is this a bug or am I misinterpreting??

Installation fails on Windows 2012

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 15 Jan 2014 00:27:42 GMT

Hiya,

I installed CF 10 yesterday and all went OK. Ran the updates, added a few datasources and then found out that CF files only got parsed when called as ./ (rather than ./index.cfm or ./anything-else.cfm). Googled the issue, tried to run the Web Server Configuratin Tool, but that failed to work, soin the end I decided to reinstall CF10. That appeared to have been a very stupid decision.

The installation fails now. I tried several times, rebooted the server, etc. but every time, at the end of the installation process (when it tries to install the Web Server Connectors) an error pops up 'ExecutiveAppCmd.exe has stopped working'. I have no other option than to kill that process. The installation finishes, but calling any .cfm file results into a HTTP Error 404.3 - Not found.

I ran out of options. Anybody around here have any idea how I can tackle this?

TIA!

Install Error in WS 2008 R2

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 22:23:18 GMT

Attempting to install CF10 on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard 64bit SP1. I've attempted twice and received an error near the end of the installation process both times:

"ExecuteAppCmd.exe has stopped working."

After dismissing the error, the installation finishes but cfm templates are not being processed. Upon launch of the administrator on the server computer a 403 error is received:

"HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found

The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map."

Has anyone experienced this this issue, or have ideas about resolving?

I'm trying to get a form with three connected <cfselect> statements. The code works in all browsers except IE. Does anyone have any suggestions.

When it runs in IE I get the following error.

<li>

<label for="categoryID">Category</label>

<cfselect

bind="cfc:specifications.getCategory()"

bindonload="true"

style="width: 185px;">

<option value="0">All Categories</option>

</cfselect>

</li>

<li>

<label for="specGroupID">Group</label>

<cfselect

name="groupID"

id="specGroupID"

bind="cfc:specifications.getGroup({specCategories:specCategoryID.value})"

bindonload="false"
