ColdFusion

I am having an issue where the ColdFusion service inside of the Docker Container is not starting up. When I look at the Logs view in Docker Desktop all that returns is the following.  [] Checking server startup status...  This setup has been working for months and all of the sudden after the 14.5 update on MacOS it stopped working.  Chipset: Apple M3 MaxMacOS 14.5Docker Desktop Version 4.30.0 (149282)Docker Engine: 26.1.1 Docker Container Setup Script # variables cf_administrator_pwd=ColdFusion123 # Run the docker conainer docker run -dt --name mysite -p 80:8500 -v $PWD/www:/app -e acceptEULA=YES -e password=$cf_administrator_pwd -e enableSecureProfile=true --platform linux/amd64 adobecoldfusion/coldfusion2023:latest # Wait 10 seconds sleep 10 # Install All docker exec mysite /opt/coldfusion/cfusion/bin/cfpm.sh install all  When I look at the logs in the container I am seeing that ColdFusion is started /opt/coldfusion/cfusion/logs/c

I need to build a coldfusion 2016 environment before upgrading to coldfusion 2023. However, I can't find the 2016 installation version, can you help me?

I need a tool to support Unit Testing and Code Coverage for ColdFusion project, do you know any such tool? Thank you.

Hi, Every server I configure with the PMT (CF+PMT2021) it can't figure out the connectors, it has dubplicate entries for all connectors, once by ip, once by application name.It keeps switching over from ip to sitename connector constantly, and everytime it does I get an alert saying site unavailable, site available. This happens like 1000 times a day depending on the amount of connectors. I am fine with just ignoring this as everything seems to work fine and the PMT is just buggy I guess.The only problem I have is there is no option to disable these notifications, all alerts are turned off in every section on the nodes as well as the PMT alert settings itself. Anybody have any clue? <rant>It doesn't seem the PMT is used by many, as there are like 10 topics in total about it on this forum (2 of which are mine now, one on another account) and not properly updated by adobe as the 2021 PMT still says "© 1995 - 2020 Adobe. All Rights Reserved." It is also a pita to

So, hello again. On my website inside my root folder I had folders for some guides, however I moved them to another location. What I would need now is when they try to go to https://almarsguides.com/Aion/ , they are moved to https://almarsguides.com/Computer/Games/Aion/ . Because right now they will be redirected to page 404.  One important thing to note is that this should work for all guides. If let's say they go to https://almarsguides.com/Aion/professions , they should be redirected to https://www.almarsguides.com/Computer/Games/Aion/professions/ I will have to do this for other folders too, but this is the main idea. Is it possible to do this in Application.cfc because it seems that my htaccess doesn't work well?

Greetings,We have a ColdFusion 2021 installation on Server 2022 that calls all of its scheduled tasks via http://localhost. Now that we have implemented SmartCard login for the server, and set the server to https only and Client Certificate required, the tasks of course will not run. Any call to the server, even from localhost, will now require an https connection and must provide a valid certificate. I don't beleive the scheduler can provide that, though we could issue a soft cert for it and have it available to the engine if needed. Do you know of any guidance on how to do that?Alternatively we could run the tasks as Windows tasks, but it seems like the cfm files that contain the tasks scripts might need to be altered to run from the cf.bat in either cmd or powershell. It also looks like the cfms may need to be altered to run that way vice running in the browser. Do you know of any guidance for our developers on how to alter the cfm tasks to be run via cf.bat instead of via the brows

We have recently switched from one Antivirus/Firewall app to Windows Defender for Servers.  I tried replicating our settings into Windows Defender Firewall to allow our ColdFusion Webservers to operate.  End result, our sites were unable to be reached. Can someone provide a complete list of Ports/Port Ranges that require access? Windows Server 2019 running ColdFusion 2021.  SQL 2019 backend.  Apache webserver.  Traffic comes in as HTTPS (443) to our primary firewall, then using a VIP is transferred to our Load Balancers.  The Load Balancers do SSL Offloading, so the traffic is forwarded to the ColdFusion server on HTTP (80).  I have Firewall rules for both 443 and 80 to allow access.  I also have rules to allow the SQL access using the specific ports we have designated in our Data Sources (Within CFadmin).Turning off the Defender Firewall allows the websites to work again, so I am apparently missing a rule or two.Thanks,Phillip

Hello - Has anyone ever seen CFDUMP  - form, not display all the fieldnames with data in it? I have a number of formfields, but not A LOT of them and one of the names is missing. Anyway, I have attached a CFDUMP of the form fields...The field in question should be the last one in the list, it should be journal_date.It doesn't exist in the list of fieldnames, but the value does exist. Anybody have an idea of what's happening? Thanks Doug

We have 2 load balanced ColdFusion servers, and want to use PMT Performance Monitoring Toolset. The advice from Adobe : For deploying in production, it is recommended that Performance Monitoring Toolset must be deployed separately from a ColdFusion server. If we install on one of the ColdFusion server how much of an impact would it have? Marginal or a total no-no?

We are using cfhtmltopdf and inside calibri font block, content is not displaying in PDF  <cfhtmltopdf destination="FILEPATH" overwrite="true" orientation="portrait" unit="in" marginbottom="0.25" marginleft="0.25" marginright="0.25" margintop="0.25"> <cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="utf-8"> DISPLAYED IN PDF <div style="font-family:calibri;font-size:13pt;"> THIS IS NOT DISPLAYING IN PDF </div> DISPLAYED IN PDF </cfhtmltopdf>  We have installed calibri font. and coldfusion server: 2018.

I have setup CF on many windows servers over the years but this is my firat attempt at setting up CF on Linux. I have a newly setup REHL 9.3-0.5.el9.x86_64 server. I have Apache 2.5.47 running on it. I installed CF using the GUI installer and set it up with the Production Profile. I upgraded to Update 7 and then upgraded the Java to 17.0.11 and in the CF Admin I can see that it is running Tomcat version 9.0.85.0. In Apache I setup two virtual hosts and on my windows machine I edited my hosts file so that I can access both of those sites through a web browser on my local computer. Next I ran the wsconfig from the command line with this:sudo ./wsconfig -ws Apache -dir /etc/httpd/conf -bin /usr/sbin/httpd -vI can see it created several files in the ColdFusion2023/config/wsconfig folder and in the /ect/httpd/conf folder it added mod_jk.so and it added these lines to the httpd.conf file.Include "/etc/httpd/conf/mod_jk.conf"Include "/home/cimwebadm/opt/ColdFusion2023/config/wsconfig/1/mod_jk

I've been using a slightly modified version of the SocketGateway (examples.socket.SocketGateway) for over 15 years (modified just to comment out the "welcome" message) with great success.  Our legacy ERP system has several processes that communication on TCP/IP sockets and we've been able to streamline multiple integrations by letting it talk to my ColdFusion sockets and using CF code to connect to partner APIs.The new version of the ERP system has changed one of those socket processes to communicate over TLS and my CF socket can no longer understand what it's sending.  Strangely, the process still CONNECTS, but what I would typically receive as a single "message" with an EOF character is now broken up into multiple messages and gets logged as gibberish (the usual sort of binary characters you see from encrypted data).  I'm trying to figure out what changes would be needed to allow this connection to work properly.  I've started down the road of trying to modify the

Want to install PMT - but when checking the install instructions there is reference to Datastore (which requires additional resources) and ElasticSearchh (which Datastore uses).  What is this and is it needed for PMT to work?When I read up on PMT on the web (the various overviews) no mention is made of Datastore. The page I referenced is Performance Monitoring Toolset deployment guide (adobe.com) This impacts the size of VM I need to request or share with other apps. if there is a web page that explains this, that may be sufficeient (cannot seem to find this).

Hi, i know there are literally no free tools for ci/cd scanning of coldfusion besides cflint/sonarqube plugin- Is this still true? - No SAST SCA etc type scanners in the wild?  Also; As per new mandate of security etc; SBOM. I notice grype/syft in a repo on my github repos, do not map dependencies of coldfusion code. With the release of 2024 how are we to approach this? 

I am having a website with URL where subfolders vary from all uppercase to all lowercase. What I would like to happen is to make whole website URL lowercase once loaded. Even if the user changes it to whatever he wants, it will revert to lowercase once page refreshed.  I tried using what ChatGPT said but this only gives me 500 Internal error. He tried many different variations of this and with http and https and yet all fail in the same way. He also tried with haccess file but it didn't work. Actually, it works for first subfolder, but fails for all others in the path. <cfsetting showdebugoutput="Yes"> <cftry> <cfset requestURL = GetHttpRequestData().headers["host"] & GetHttpRequestData().headers["x-original-uri"]> <cfset lowercaseURL = LCase(requestURL)> <cfset segments = ListToArray(lowercaseURL, "/")> <cfset lastSegment = ArrayLast(segments)> <cfif CGI.QUERY_STRING NEQ ""> <cfset lowercas

How can I create  404 page and apply it all across the website? Is that something I need to add in Application.cfc ?  I have 404.cfc page which contains only gif, however if I would to navigate to that page, all templates are being loaded (header with navigation), body and even footer. Can I somehow disable templates for this page?

Hi all.I have a PDF file with two pages. Here I generate two individual GIF files using Imagemagick/Ghostscript convert. everything works. An image is inserted on the second page of the PDF. If the image has a higher resolution, i.e. the file format is larger, then Coldfusion will not generate the second convert correctly. only one image is generated. It works manually in the command line on the server. So the PDF is fine. I also played shcon with the timeout and set it higher. But that doesn't help either. Does somebody has any idea? A solution?here my code:<cfexecute name="convert" arguments='convert -resize 400 -interlace none -layers flatten -density 200 -quality 40 "#temp_vorschau#/pdf/#vorschau_bild#.pdf[0]" "#temp_vorschau#/pdf/#vorschau_bild#_1.gif"' timeout="20"> </cfexecute> <cfexecute name="convert" arguments='convert -resize 400 -interlace none -layers flatten -density 200 -quality 40 "#temp_vorschau#/pdf/#vorschau_bild#.pdf[1]" "#temp_vorschau#/pdf/#vorsc

I have been messing with this for a while with no progress. I am trying to populate a PDF form using cfpdfform and save it to memory using something like this:<cfpdfform action="populate" source="blankForm.pdf" destination="ram:///filledForm.pdf" overwrite="yes">But I keep getting:The ram:///filledForm.pdf file specified in the cfpdfform tag either does not exist or is not accessible by this tag.Does cfpdfform not have the ability to populate and write to memory or am I doing something wrong? I can successfully write to memory with cfpdf. I also realize I can populate to a variable and then write the result to a file using cfpdf. At this point, I'm mostly curious if this is intended behavior or not.

I am displaying a chart using CFCHART. It works fine in local development on CF2016 Developer edition, however when I run the code on the server (also CF2016) I just get a blank white screen. Looking at the source code, everything appears to be there I looked at the CF Administrator and the "Charting" settings are the same. I don't see anything else that is related to the charts. I stripped it back to a very basic call for a chart with no data which will display an empty graph, this works on the local side (see attached screenshot), but not on the server, again, a white screen, no graph.  Code below.<CFCHARTtitle="My Graph"format="html"show3d="no"showlegend="yes"chartheight="400"chartwidth="500"labelFormat = "number"showborder="true"pieSliceStyle="sliced"sortXAxis = "yes"><cfchartseries type="bar" dataLabelStyle="pattern" seriescolor="4199d1" valuecolumn="totalclicks" itemcolumn="click_country"></cfchartseries></cfchart> It's not th

Hi,I have a ColdFusion 2021 webserver with IIS.   The above setting will work.  But, since it uses my personal login and we have a policy to change personal passwords every so often, that means I will need to come here to change my password.  I tried to change this to an administrative account that does not require periodic password change,  but then, I got this error.   How should I go about fixing this?  I could not identify the location of web.config.  I wonder if making the suggested change will work either.  Comments/Suggestions?  Thanks. dchan

The documentation states : "For importing configurations using CAR, the CAR archives mounted to the /data directory are automatically imported during startup."  ( https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/using/docker-images-coldfusion.html ) . I have a .car file in there, but I don't see that it is imported. As a simple test, I just added a couple datasources, and then run the packaging & deployment > create an archive. This is how my directory structure looks like : C:\coldfusion-docker\docker-compose.yaml                                          \coldfusion.env                                  \data\cf.car When I run docker-compose up, the CF admin does not have those datasources. Also, I am running this instance on port 8506. I am havin

Hi, is anyone using Visual Studio Code? I'm trying to format the code with the command ALT+SHIFT+F and after that it says: "There is no formatter for 'cfml' files installed." How can we format the ColdFusion code in Visual Studio Code?
