ColdFusion

Hello,I attempted to login to the CF 10 administrator and got an error message:  "An error occurred while executing the application. Please try again or contact the administrator."Attempted to login with an incorrect password and got an error message: "Invalid User name or Password. Please try again."The username and password were not changed.I have two instances of CF Admin (Test and production) and both are inaccessible and throw the same error message (An error occurred...).The applications are running.I restarted the service successfully.Update 20 was manually completed in July 2016. I was under the impression all further updates were set to "automatically" update, but I could be wrong. My first thought is that an update automatically occurred on April 25, 2017 (Update 23) which may have caused this problem.Any Idea why I can't login to the administrator?Thanks,Lucy Zoe

Hi,I have access to CF admin, but my co-worker doesn't.  I want to give her an access, but don't know how? Thanks

I have two servers configured the same way. They're running CF 8 Enterprise (exact version is 8,0,1,195765), Java version is 1.6.0_04. Servers are Windows 2008 Server Standard. On one of them, generating PDFs using CFDOCUMENT is very fast. On the other it's painfully slow, can take minutes for a simple PDF. I've checked everything I can think of on the two servers and they seem pretty much the same. I checked the iText jars, they appear to be the same as well. I've seen other people post with slowness issues, but many posts relate to dynamic images, which are not an issue here because I have a PDF with no images in it. I'm totally out of ideas as to what could be causing the difference in performance. Anybody else run into this and find a solution?

I just installed CF10 on my company's Intranet and debugging output is displayed on the server (127.0.0.1).  I've gone to Debugging & Logging > Debugging IP Addressesand added my client PC IP but I don't get the robust errors.  I've tried all types of IPs to no avail.  I've also removed all IPs (which is supposed to give robust errors to all IPs) but that doesn't work either.  Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?Thanks for any help.JOHN

I believe CF8.0.1 is not officially supported on Windows Server 2012 but I'm wondering if anybody has successfully managed to get these two running together?I'm just presuming going from Server 2008 to 2012 is worth while with a newer version of IIS and performance increasesIf it's a no go, what's the lowest version that would work on Win Server 2012? (maybe not officially but what's actually running out there in the real world?)

I have a ColdFusion 11 server set up and I've set one up and it works fine with no problems. However on another server that is built I can't get the following working at the same time together.I have my DefaultScriptSrc pointing to a newly named virtual directory in IIS as per the lockdown guide. For instance I have a virtual directory called "cfscripts".  This virtual directory points to the CFIDE\scripts directory in IIS.  Therefore in CFadmin I have the parameter set to "\cfscripts\"1. Cfform works just fine.  You can clearly see that it's looking for cfform.js in src="/cfscripts/cfform.js"2. However we set the parameter "strictnumbervalidation=false" at the top of our code in the apps as we want it to behave like in prior ColdFusion releases.  This does not work.If I change the virtual directory cfscripts to point to CFIDE instead of CFIDE\scripts then the strictnumbervalidation works but the cfform doesn't. I'm not sure why on this server it works this way.

Hello, all,I'm not really sure if this can be accomplished.  But I'm going to give it a try, and I could really use some help with a complex query involving two tables (many-to-one, relational).First, a little background.  Oracle 12 database.  Chained commands are disabled.  Stored Procedures are not allowed.  (Not my choice; these are upper level decisions, above my paygrade.)  This is a very weak metrics-ish project.  Basically do a very, VERY lame job of "fingerprinting" a client browser for tracking purposes (but not the nefarious tracking you might be thinking of - it's to see in what order which links of one of our sites is being utilized, believe it or not to improve UI/UX.)The reason I am bringing this question here?  Because I am OCD when it comes to keeping databases as small as can be, and I want to run a scheduled task once a month that will prune the data - under specific conditions, just about anything older than 6 months.TABLES:web

Using CF11, MacOS.I have a file upload which accepts doc, docx, pdf. Doc and pdf behave as expected. However, whenever I try to upload a docx I receive the following error: "The MIME type or the Extension of the uploaded file application/zip was not accepted by the server".I saw that there was a similar bug that was meant to be fixed in CF11, see this thread: Tracker My cffile tag looks like this:<cffile action = "uploadAll"  fileField = "arguments.stuData.addDocuments"  destination = "#dirTemp#"   nameConflict = "MakeUnique"  result="arrResult"  accept = "application/pdf,application/msword,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document,application/x-tika-msoffice"/>Can anyone help?

I have been working for weeks trying to interpret and follow the instructions on Using OAuth 2.0 for Server to Server Applications for connecting our work SQL based calendar to our Google calendar. I first tried directly interacting using HTTP but was not successful in creating the correct signature, even tho I used Ben Nadel's 2015 JSONWebTokens.cfc as a resource. Then I came across Java Integration Guide CFML Documentation and realized that it might be possible to use Google's provided JAVA client library, which would be ideal for security reasons.  Has anyone successfully connected server to server with Google APIs using either method? If so, I could really use help.Here is where I am stuck in the JAVA route:I have downloaded the Google APIs Client Library onto my server test folder, lets call it /usingJAVA/calendar/I have an application file in /usingJAVA with the following lines indicating JAVA class file paths:<CFSET this.javaSettings = {loadPaths = ["/usingJAVA/calendar/

Hi ,We are doing the windows migration for our application which is developed in Cold fusion 11  from windows 2003 to windows 2012 servers.In Windows 2003 , cfxss.dll was built in 32- bit version and our operating system in 32-bit version so it works fine without any issues.But In windows 2012 OS was in 64 bit version , so cfxss.dll is not working and producing the issue. Can someone please let me know where to get the 64 bit version for cfxss.dll  and also if we replace this dll , will fix this issue or help me to find the alternate solution.

I'm running two servers with MS-SQL Server 2008 and ColdFusion 11.  When I disable TLS 1.0/1.1, ColdFusion can no longer connect to the SQL server...  This happens whether I'm running MS-SQL Server on the same machine with ColdFusion or not.  In other words, it breaks local connections and remote connections...I need to disable TLS 1.0/1.1 in order to remain PCI-compliant.  How do I do this without breaking all my SQL connections in ColdFusion 11?Thanks,Laurence MacNeillBall Ground, Georgia, USA

I recently upgraded our ColdFusion10 to ColdFusion 2016. I am able to login fine, but i noticed the title of the CF Administrator is still displaying Adobe Coldfusion 10 instead of 16. I checked our system information logged in and my Server Product listed is Coldfusion 2016. Am I missing a step for the upgrade? or is this easy to change?Can anyone assist me with this issue?isdigital.inf

We are using CF 11 on Windows server 2012 R2. Having the structure of our data we need to use either one really large or about 500 small Solr collections. What are the pros and cons for doing it either way? Is there any guide/reference for the best practices about the number of collections? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

When installing ColdFusion 11 silently using 'installer.profile' and setting the password value with the 'SILENT_ADMIN_PASSWORD=' property, the password does not work ColdFusion administrator. Is there a way to fix this to work with the silent install?Thanks!

I just migrated my CF8 site to CF10 (development only, thankfully!) and noticed that all sorts of issues were occuring with missing images.  It appears that, after over a decade of "test.html" being the same as "TEST.HTML", the adoption of Tomcat has killed that.  A link to "MyImage.jpg" will not bring up "myimage.jpg".Please tell me I'm wrong or, better still, tell me a way to turn off case sensitivity in the Tomcat system.  My application has thousands of templates (each with multiple links) and I'm not very happy about the idea of having to go in, page by page, and standardize their casing.

Hi,We have a ColdFusion 10 SaaS product that we're working on to bring it up to ColdFusion 2016 compliance. However, we have recently learned that the upgrade path will not be available to us after May 2017 (http://blogs.coldfusion.com/post.cfm/non-availability-of-upgrade-pricing-from-coldfusion-10-to-coldfusion-2016-release?utm_source=FusionReactor+Customer+15%2F05%2F2017).As we are not in a position to upgrade just yet, we still don't want to loose the ability to upgrade at a lower price point instead of purchasing new licences outright.My question is, would we be able to pay for the upgraded licences now (ColdFusion 10 to ColdFusion 2016) but continue to use the existing ColdFusion 10 keys until we are in a position to upgrade our servers to ColdFusion 2016, when we would simply swap them out and use the new keys?I've reached out to Adobe directly regarded this and haven't had a response, I figured the forums would be the next suitable step!Many thanks.

Good morning everybody,I have a page containing a list of files (Excel in different format such as xls, xlsx and xlsm).To open it, I use different content type: (see code below)For the extension xls and xlsm, it work fine.for xlsx, I receive the following error:     "Excel cannot open the file 'xxx.xlsx' because the file format or file extension is not valid."I already search on internet https://forums.adobe.com/message/8911025#8911025 and tried without effect.I can open if I use the "cfcontent type='application/msexcel' " but I loose everything about Excel 2010.There is anyone which can help me?Thank you in advance for your supportBest regardsAndréthe code:<cfset FileName  = Replace(request.getXlsFile.Uploaded_File_Name, ' ', '_',"All") ><cfset extension = request.getXlsFile.template_ext ><cfoutput>        <cfheader name="Cache-Control" value="private">    <cfheader name="Content-Dispositi

After deploying cf11 update 12, in cf administration > Datasource when testing connexion, I get an error :SQLException while attempting to connect: java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][Oracle JDBC Driver]No more data available to read..Then I have replaced macromedia-drivers.jar in lib sub-directory with the one from CF11-update 6 and restarted coldfusion : problem has gone.I am running CF on a windows 2012 64 bit system and oracle database is also windows 2012 64bit.I had same issue with updates 8,9,10 and 11. Why is adobe not fixing such bug ? Should I use other dirver to access oracle database ?

We're using ColdFusion 2016 Update 4This problem was just brought to my attention by a user who probably has not used her application since Update 4 was applied.The application worked fine until reported to me on 5/19/17 our update was applied on 4 /25/17.I've attached screenshots at the bottom of this post.The workflow is the user enters a new event hits save - that's itBut now after the first save she has to go to edit mode and change the 00 to 17 and save again. The change sticks after the edit, but we need to find a fix for this.here is the code:        <cfform class="EMwrapper" name="MainForm" format="html">            <cfgrid name="gridEM"                    query="EM"                    format="

Path to the CFC I'm trying to instantiate is:/webroot/client/com.client.www/model/SomeComponentwhere "/webroot" is a ColdFusion mapping to the actual web root. I'm trying to make this work *without* having to create a mapping.I'm using CreateObject(). I can't use the dot-notation format (webroot.client.com.cllient.www.model.SomeComponent) because the directory name "com.client.www" would be interpreted as 3 levels deep which is wrong, it's one directory name. So, I'm using the path instead. However a path with a directory with a dot in the name appears to confuse ColdFusion. For example, this works:CreateObject("component", "/webroot/client/website/model/SomeComponent")but this does not:CreateObject("component", "/webroot/client/com.client.www/model/SomeComponent")Clearly the dots are causing some trouble. The reverse domain name format I've got here is a silly old thing that we're migrating away from, but in the mean time old projects have this format so we've got to deal with it.I've

Last night my System Admin performed a Windows Update on out Server 2012r2 machine that holds our ColdFusion Server.After the restart, the ColdFussion 11 Application Server service will not start.  All of our logs seem to be empty as well.  Could I get any assistance on this?ColdFusion has been fully updated.Thanks,John

I have come across an interesting issue and hopefully I'm not the only one with this scenario.  First the environment: 64-bit Windows Server 2008 (I found the same issue on SP2 and R2), ColdFusion 9.0.1 Enterprise edition, ColdFusion HotFix 1, IIS 7 (native mode), Sun Java 1.6.0_22, Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (on a different server).The issue that I have is I cannot get my datasource to verify.  ColdFusion returns this error:Connection verification failed for data source: clientsjava.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]The requested instance is either invalid or not running.The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]The requested instance is either invalid or not running.Now here is what I have found so far.  I think I have finally narrowed this down to an issue with the Sandbox Security and the fact that we are using a database instance on our SQL server.  With the S

I have a vulnerability scanner that is showing our CF version as version 6. But I do not have version 6 installed.  it is actually version 2016.its saying its finding it herehttp://servername:8500/CFIDEany assistance, besides just forwarding me an 80 page document, would be appreciatedthank you!
