Just a note for others that may have this issue. For one of my clients on CF2021 Update 19, upgrading to Update 20 caused PDF errors. Issue was resolved after deleting the cfusion/bin/felix-cache folder and restarting ColdFusion (ColdFusion service needs to be stopped before deleting it).

Hello, After applying ColdFusion (2021 release) Update 19, I started receiving PDF server errors when trying to use cfhtmltopdf. I tried updating the server manager, and now get the following error: Error adding PDF Service Manager. Please ensure that you have entered a correct PDF Service hostname and port. Check logs for more details. In the application log, I see the following: coldfusion.pdfg.jetty.PDFGServiceImpl$LocalServiceManagerException: You are not allowed to add Local service manager. In server log, I see the following: "Information","Thread-33","04/16/25","22:51:52","","PDFg service manager http://127.0.0.1:8993/PDFgServlet/ registered." "Error","Thread-33","04/16/25","22:51:53","","Error while registering/unregistering Service manager. Reason is Keys are not loaded properly." I had a default installation on localhost, 127.0.0.1. port 8993. I am not using the standalone PDFg service. Please advise. Thanks. Robert

I recently upgraded to ColdFusion 2021 Update 9 and I am experiencing a similar issue. When setting the java version in the jetty lax file to any version greater than Java Version: 11.0.16.1 I get a server error. Putting it back to 11.0.16.1 resolves the issue. I am a bit concerned that I cannot run a more secure version of Java. From a security stand point, how serious is this? 2nd issue I just came across is that cfhtmltopdf no longer outputs the "Calibri" font. It just displays blank text. Switching to "Arial" works. Any idea what would have changed?

The "2" 2018 servers that gave me issues had the lockdown tool installed. I believe that was the issue. This issue did not occur on a 2021 server that had the lockdown tool installed though. It only happened on the 2018 versions.

Had the same issue on 2 separate ColdFusion 2018 installations. This was the solution. Thank you!

The code that you supplied is not the issue. The issue is that the cfexchangecalendar tag is not working as expected. When an event is not setup as a "Recurring Event", the timezone is fine. When set as a "Recurring Event", the timezone switches and even if I use the functions you provided, the times are always out of sync.

If I put today's date, with a weekly Monday occurrence, I get a series of calendar events that start on Monday at 22:00 and end on Tuesday at 22:00. I pass the start and end date as below: myLocaldatetime=createdatetime(2019,08,19,0,0,0); convertLocalToUTC(myLocaldatetime, "Europe/Madrid")

Thank you for your help. I tried using your convertLocalToUTC function but unfortunately the times still get changed.

That was a really good suggestion, but unfortunately, the result is the same. The time gets changed to UTC 0 even though I pass all time events through the dateConvert "utc2local" function. It is odd, because if I do not set a recurring event everything is ok. As soon as I specify that it is a recurring event, the times get changed.

Hello, I am not sure if this is a bug or if I am not using the tag correctly. The following occurs in ColdFusion 2018 release. If I setup a new event with cfexchangecalendar, using the following event parameters, the timezone changes to (UTC+00:00) Monrovia, Reykjavik (and the event time is therefore incorrect): <cfset local.event.Message = "Event Message"> <cfset local.event.Subject = "Event Subject"> <cfset local.event.AllDayEvent = "no"> <cfset local.event.StartTime = createDateTime(2019, 7, 26, 0, 0, 0)> <cfset local.event.EndTime = createDateTime(2019, 7, 27, 0, 0, 0)> <cfset local.event.IsRecurring = "yes"> <cfset local.event.RecurrenceType = "WEEKLY"> <cfset local.event.RecurrenceEndDate = createDateTime(2019, 12, 31, 0, 0, 0)> <cfset local.event.RecurrenceDays = "MON"> Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you, Robert

Thanks for looking. I looked myself and could not find a ColdFusion example. I agree that the ColdFusion spreadsheet functions are really good. What I need to do, is generate a Word template pre-filled with db data that users will then manipulate. That is why it needs to be in Word. cfdocument or cfhtmltopdf would do the trick if there was an easy way to convert the pdf to word after the pdf was generated.

I tried modifying the xml by just changing a word in the source data. When I saved it and tried to open it, Word could not open the file.

Thank you for this. I watched the video, but this is not really what I need. I need to edit a Word document and then push it to the browser in Word format (doc or docx). The video explains how to convert a Word document into xml format and display in a browser.

Using a recent version of ColdFusion that has the built in POI library, using HWPF or XWPF (it does not matter which one), does anyone have sample code that would read a word file from the server, replace text (for example: replace "*test*" with "12345") and then output this new version of the file to the browser? No need to save the file. Pushing the new file data via cfcontent is what I am looking for. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

The problem has been resolved, it seems the update didn't apply without errors due to the fact that a mail app was keeping the cfperfmon_9.dll in C:\windows\system32 open which prevented the 9.01 update from over-writting the original. Thank you all for your help! works fine now.

WHen i try to look at the log files in cfadmin, i get this error: Diagnostic: The isSystemLog method was not found. Either there are no methods with the specified method name and argument types or the isSystemLog method is overloaded with argument types that ColdFusion cannot decipher reliably. ColdFusion found 0 methods that match the provided arguments. If this is a Java object and you verified that the method exists, use the javacast function to reduce ambiguity. The error occurred on line 283 I also noticed that the scheduled tasks "Last Run" does not update. I enabled logging in cfadmin for scheduled tasks and it does created a scheduler.log with all the tasks being logged and executing properly. I'm at a loss here and really need help before going live with this/

I am also getting this error. Seems to be a problem with the
date 2009-03-08 and time of 2am.
For example:
CreateDateTime(2009, 3, 8, 2, 45, 0)
Will through the following error:
Date value passed to date function CreateDateTime is
unspecified or invalid.
Specify a valid date in CreateDateTime function.
