ColdFusion

HiI'm trying to implement CFCProxy as per the following tutorial ColdFusion Help | Enhanced Java integration in ColdFusion. It works if you call the JAVA from ColdFusion then call the CFC from JAVA but I would like to call the CFC straight from Java instead, is this possible?When I try and it I get the following error:runtime error. coldfusion.server.ServiceFactory$ServiceNotAvailableException: The Runtime service is not available. at coldfusion.server.ServiceFactory.getRuntimeService(ServiceFactory.java:117) at coldfusion.cfc.CFCProxy.<init>(CFCProxy.java:119) at coldfusion.cfc.CFCProxy.<init>(CFCProxy.java:73)Thanks for your help!

HelloI see that you have approved my blog post " Is Lucee CFML now better than ColdFusion?" However, when I click on the link on the first page (home) it says that it's not available. What could be the issue here?Thanks

Hello, all,I'm in the middle of moving all my stuff from my old, dying development system to my new development system, and in the process I'm also switching from CF10 to CF11.I've finished the CF11 install, and can get to the CFAdmin page with no problem.  However, I have about 40 DSNs on my old dev system that I need to transfer to my new system, and I really don't want to manually enter everything.I've seen posts online about taking the old neo*.xml files and "place them where the new install can find them" then tweak another .xml file to re-run the migration wizard.  That didn't work, for me.  It just broke my CF Server.  I restored the original .xml files and rebooted - that at least got me back to where I was.Are there any other ways with which to xfer all my DSNs from my old system to my new system??V/r,^_^

Trying to install CF 2016 and putting in new serial number.  It then asks for previous serial number but won't accept what I put in even though I copied and pasted right from my products on the adobe site.  Please help!  Time sensitive and the phone lines seem to be closed till Monday morning.

Hello,I have a graphing routine that charts with a grade description as the item column and the count for each as the value column, I am using cfchart and cfchartseries. I am using a .json file for the styling. A graph is produced for each student, with an arrow (using Zingchart labels) pointing to the students grade. I use cffile to write the chart to a .jpg.We are currently at CF - 11,0,13,303668 (Update level 13) and Java Version: 1.8.0_25. This routine runs once a year and has been working fine for a few years now. Last year at this time, when it ran successfully, we were at CF 11, Update level 12.Upon running this graphing process this year, the graph is produced fine, but the arrow is stuck on the left side of the chart. It is almost as if the charting engine doesn't know what node to point to.Here is the CF chart code....  <cfchart showygridlines="yes"                    &

Hi,I'd edit my cffile discussion but it won't let me for some reason.I had been using cffile locally but I realized I probably need to use CFFTP.  My question is, when I create a file filed in a form, how do I connect that to a CFFTP putfile action?  Like, what do I put after localfile = and remotefile = if the file is coming from a form?  And can i use nameConflict = "MakeUnique" within the CFFTP putfile action?Thanks,MIkeedit: so now I'm learning that cfftp only uploads files from the coldfusion server to the directory.  What if I have a web host and don't control the coldfusion server?  Is there still a way for a user to upload an image onto my site?  What information would I need from my web host to do this?

New install on new server, migrated settings manually via the cf11settings folder and run migration task.In CFAdmin, on the Server Settings page, I get:An Error Has OccurredSomething isn't working properly. We apologize for any inconvenienceIn my error alert, I see:An error occurred: https://servername/CFIDE/administrator/settings/server_settings.cfm?Time: 7/30/18 12:02 PMError - structBrowser Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.75 Safari/537.36DateTime {ts '2018-07-30 12:02:40'}Diagnostics Variable ALLOWEXTRAATTRIBUTESINATTRCOLL is undefined. <br>The error occurred on line 1104.I have looked at neo-runtime.xml for anything amiss (looks fine at a glance) and I am unable to open \\ColdFusion2016\cfusion\wwwroot\CFIDE\administrator\settings\server_settings.cfm in a text editor, I presume it is encrypted.

I have a site where users can fill out reports.  The admins have the ability to control the questions.  So, I'm using GetSafeHTML() when I show the questions because there are some questions that have bulletted lists and EncodeForHTML when displaying the answers.  That all works fine when displaying the questions and answers to the screen.  However, the user also has the option to save the report as a pdf.  I'm using cfdocument to create the pdf.  My problem is that anything with GetSafeHTML is showing the html (ie <ul><li>, etc.) for the list instead of just displaying the bulleted list.Anyone else having similar problems?  Any thoughts on work arounds?  I am thinking of using IsSafeHTML and only displaying if it is safe and no longer using GetSafeHTML to display.  Anyone deal with this differently?

As I look for hosting for my website, I have been asked if I want ColdFusion 11 or ColdFusion 2016.  The ColdFusion project I have was done while I was in school in the fall of 2016 and I am not sure which version it was done in. Is there any way to tell? I no longer have access to the school server.Thank you!

I have a 500 page document that is styled with css. The cfdocument tag is working perfectly to produce the styled text. When I add cfdocumentsections to get bookmarks, the css no longer works.I am using CF 9,0,1,274733 Enterprise on IIS7. The content is contained in Mura.

I created a fun utility for employees of my company by which I use the RandRange function in Coldfusion to choose an area restaurant for people standing around wondering where to go for lunch.  Believe it or not, it has taken hold and people are using it to choose where to eat at company locations around the country.The code queries the database for all possible restaurant selections for a given company location. I use the randRange function with the dbQuery.RecordCount value to determine the chosen record number.Then I loop over the restaurant query comparing the dbQuery.currentRow value to the randomly generated number from earlier.  If the currentRow equals the randomly generated number, it is displayed as today's choice.  Everything seems to work great with the RandRange function in the scope of a single user / single PC.Now the issue a co-worker and I discovered recently (and fortunately I'm not using RandRange for any other real purpose):When we both reload the pag

I have an application that uploads files and it works great.But when the user selects a file to upload the user cant tell that they have selected a file to upload.See here. The user has selected a file but there is no indication of this.See how in this example I can see the selected file to upload...upload.pngHow do I show the selected file?

I have a scheduled task in CF 10. It has been running successfully however, now it runs but actually it does not. The scheduler log says it is triggering but actually does not. When the task's URL accessed directly from browser the CF page actually get executed.The scheduled task calls all other tasks using CFHTTP.Any advise would be of great help on what could be the issue with scheduled task. I have restarted the CF instance with no success. The log set in the task says "Connection Failure".

Hi All,  I'd like to create a Coldfusion program that will generate a fillable PDF form (it's a ticket for a draw) that can be downloaded and filled out offline.  Basically I have a form template that I want to customize for different organizations, so I created a PDF form in LibreOffice and then I have Coldfusion fill in the parts of the for Organization Name, Address, Phone Number, and insert an uploaded logo graphic.  So my logic flow is:   HTML form that asks for organization name, address, phone number and upload of logo.      |     V   This information is merged into the PDF form I created (the ticket).   (There are additional form fields in the ticket for the name of the person who bought the ticket, their address, phone, etc.)     |    V   PDF document is downloaded to a local computer, and then offline, a person fills in the remaining fields wh

I'm installing Coldfusion 2016 on RedHat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL7) OS server. RHEL7 uses systemd units file to stop and start services/applications when the OS is booted or shutdown.Has anyone converted /etc/init.d/coldfusion_2016 systemv init file to system unit file?

Hello is there any tool that  i can scan the ColdFusion code for possible vulnerabilities or security issues? Thanks in advance

Hi,I want to generate a random number but make sure that the number doesn't equal another number in a recordeet.  I am using this but I don't think it's right.<cfoutput query="rsHistory"><cfset historyid = RandRange(1,1999999999)><cfif #historyid# EQ #rsHistory.history_id#><cfset historyid = RandRange(1,1999999999)></cfif></cfoutput>Is there a better way of doing this?Thanks,MIkeEDIT: I'm using coldfusion 8

i need to maintain session data between sub domainsyou can do this easy by setting:this.setdomaincookies="yes"works perfectly because the cfid and cftoken cookies domain is set to ".domain.com" instead of "whatever.domain.com"here is the problem. we are using J2EE sessions.so the cookie that we need to have its sub domain blank is the JSESSIONIDthis cookie is not set to ".domain.com" it remains "whatever.domain.com"if i try to manually create the cookies by setting setclientcookies to false a very odd thing occurs. when i set the value to session.sessionid, the resulting value is set to for example: " F29D7D74818F64478776A879964C7E05%2Ecfusion", see how it has replaced the "dot" with "%2E"i think this causes the brains to mark it as an invalid cookie so it creates another one, which then has its own valid value but does not work for us because its now its own session. i read some stuff about editing the jrun-web.xml to fix this one million years ago but i cant find that file on cf2016.

Hi All,Is there a way to extract data from several fillable PDF forms to create a single report.  I would like to create and end of day report in MS Word to distribute.  At present we are manually typing the data from the PDF to the word doc.ThanksMat

Hello, all,A co-worker is working on a project whereby the client has a folder with sub-folders and files that _can_ go several levels deep.  Client wants to make these files available to users for them to download, and does not want to bother with storing the files in a database.Are there any CFCs or code samples that show how to display folders as expandable DIVs that will have expandable DIVs for recursive folders and links for the actual files that users can click and download, keeping the folder structure?V/r,^ _ ^
