ColdFusion

We recently updated our four physical servers to CF10 update 14, and gave them all a reboot to let the latest Kernel and RHEL6 security updates take effect.   Each server has two worker instances, cfusion1 and cfusion2, in a round robin cluster.The servers came back fine after the reboot until the following day.  Upon restarting any CF instance, it seems the instance locks up.   If I bring both CF instances down, then both back up, the cluster *USUALLY* comes back fine, although sometimes it does not, and I have to reboot the box.  To make matteres even weirder, sometimes I can restart an instance, regardless if both are up or down, if I remove the secondary IP address on em1:1.  Weird.  This issue exists across all four physical servers.   I have pulled one out of our web cluster to try to troubleshoot, while the other three limp along.The major issue is that when one of the instances hang, they do so in a zombie state, where they are

I need to see some sample source code of a report with column headings and detail data.  I can't get my column titles in the header to line up with the detail no matter what I do.  Can anyone spare me a good sample?I have tried to use tables to specify both col headings and detail, but no chance to get them to line up.  There has to be a way.  I can't use the report builder because I need more control of when page breaks print, what data is on each line, etc.  Hopefully some kind soul out there has a good sample.Thanks!Dave

I'm testing my upgrade from CF9 to CF11 on the same server.  Looks like my old CF9 installation was an enterprise, standard, IIS installation.  (if that makes sense to you)  My CF11 is an enterprise, production + secure, stand-alone installation.  It appears that I had to choose the stand-alone installation with internal web server so it can diferentiate between the two Cold Fusions adn do side-by-side installation.  We want to use the internal web server anyhow so we can use the built-in Tomcat server instead of having to install a separate one.  Now  the question has come up, how do I get all of my web pages that are on IIS into my current ColdFusion.  I discovered a document that discusses the Web Server Management.  It looks like I can run it now and it will configure my connection between IIS and ColdFusion.    https://wikidocs.adobe.com/wiki/display/coldfusionen/Web+Server+ManagementMy question is, can this be done while

I'm trying to uninstall CF11 on my mac but the uninstaller doesn't work.I ran the uninstall.app under /Application/Coldfusion11/uninstall, it tries to open but closes immediately. So I opened up terminal and ran:sudo /Applications/ColdFusion11/uninstall/uninstall.app/Contents/MacOS/uninstallThis is the output:unzip:  cannot find or open /Applications/ColdFusion11/jre, /Applications/ColdFusion11/jre.zip or /Applications/ColdFusion11/jre.ZIP.chmod: /tmp/IA1454124394/jre/bin/: No such file or directorychmod: /tmp/IA1454124394/jre/lib/: No such file or directorysh: /tmp/IA1454124394/jre/bin/java: No such file or directoryit tries to unzip but the first one is a folder and the other 2 are non existent files.I know I can just drag the Coldfusion11 folder to trash but it gives me an uneasy feeling that this is not the only files/folders it added.I want to manually uninstall it but I don't know what other files it added/modified in my apache settings. mod_jk.conf and the entry of this fil

Good Morning,I have a server in coldfusion 10 with 32 gigabytes of memory, but noted with great concern that the server lives by consuming whole untapped processor memory, how I can optimize this from the administrator?Thank you.

Hi all,We have encountered this problem after upgrading to CF11.  We used to use cfquery to select a bfile column directly like below:<cfquery name="getDoc">select bfile_columnfrom a_tablewhere id = #id#</cfquery>we then use cfcontent to open the file directly:<cfset docstream = getDoc.bfile_colum /><cfcontent type="application/pdf" variable = "#docstream#" />This worked fine for us on CF9.  However after we upgrade to CF11, the query stops working.  The query simply hangs there, returning no result.  We found it out by removing all the code but simply leaving the query on a test page and the test page never opened until it timed out.  The data source we use is for oracle.  We have checked "BLOB" and "CLOB" boxes for the data source to make sure large content can be retrieved.Has anybody run into this same problem?  If so, have you resolved it?Your help is greatly appreciated!

I inherited a ColdFusion 10 application with an Oracle 11g back end.  Recently, I began receiving java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: [Macromedia][Oracle JDBC Driver][Oracle]ORA-00942: table or view does not exist error message when attempting to access the application on my Test server.  Since it is a gov't application, I do not have direct access to CF Admin or the database.  The gov't SysAdmin has verified the CF Admin connection is valid and connected.  The DBA has verified the data source exists and the database is up and running.  Thoroughly confused as to what is going on.   I posted on the Adobe ColdFusion support forum and they suggested I post it here to get database eyes on the issue.   The thread is here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/6854985#6854985Thank you in advance.

I am building a Rest web service using Cold Fusion 9 and Cold Fusion Builder 3 and now I want to register it on Cold Fusion 9 admin console, but I didn't see any option there as in CF 10 and CF 11 Data Services ---> Rest Web service. So, please tell me how to register my Rest web service in CF 9 either through admin console or through code?

Hello,I have a probem with ColdFusion 9, that it is very slow.I installed it on current Debian 7 x64. As a test I will write 100 times with little text files.Here the ColdFusion 9 server needs already 8 seconds.Does anyone know a solution or knows the problem?Greetings.nc-t

I'm developing on my local server and my current timezone is GMT +11 hours.<cfset date1 = DateConvert("Local2UTC", now())><cfset date2 = '2014-03-06'> <!--- (Tomorrow at time of writing) --->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??

I'm interested in a getting started tutorial.  I know Coldfusion but don't know the hosting process with Amazon.

I keep getting this error:Here is the whole tag:<cfdocument     format = "PDF"    backgroundVisible = "no"    filename = "test.pdf"    localUrl = "yes"    marginBottom = "1"    marginLeft = "1"    marginRight = "1"    marginTop = "1"    mimeType = "text/plain"    name = "Test"    orientation = "portrait"    overwrite = "yes"    pageType = "letter"    permissions = "AllowPrinting,AllowCopy"    permissionspassword = "password to access restricted permissions"    saveAsName = "Test2"    unit = "in"> Any advice is very welcome.Karolus

The company I work for is building an application in which security is of the utmost importance.  We're really hoping to use Angular as the client-side application, and we're exploring how best to create our back-end in ColdFusion (which we've used for a few years now). I understand that only so much security can exist in the front-end of the app, and that the bulk of the work needs to happen on the server.  But I'm really unsure about how to move forward in that regard.  From what I've read, it sounds like we'll need some kind of Authentication Token to be created on login and stored on the backend.  This token should come along with every http request, and the server can then decide on the validity of the request.Does this sound about right?  And if so, are there best practices for implementing it?Any resources that might shed more light on the topic would be HUGELY appreciated.Thanks,Jonathan

My understanding of the following error, "exceeded limit of maxWarmingSearchers=4", when indexing collections, is that I am committing too often. I do not pass in autoCommit="no", which to me means that it committed the changes each and every time cfindex was executed. I am looping over a large collection of information, cfindexing with each loop. If I do pass in autoCommit="no", when and how do I commit those changes? Can I place a "cfindex autoCommit='yes'" after the loop has finished to commit all those changes? What is the best way to do this?

I'm not versatile with programming coldfusion, so i'm not sure if this is a coding or server configuration issue  My work task is to migrate a coldfusion website from a CF9 server to a freshly installed CF11 server. We managed to solve all the compatibility problems but one.When I log into the web application, a CFTOKEN is generated and appears in the URL. As soon as I change the page, the CFTOKEN part vanishes from the URL. Also no cookie gets generated.I would be grateful if someone had an idea what the solution of this problem could be.Thanks in advance!Greetings,Nico Merz

Hi everyone, every day i have to restart my server because i'm getting a blank page. Someone of you know what is causing this issue?

I have a stumper.  Installed CF11 on our test server. Did some regression testing and am running into an issue. I have a .cfm that downloads information to Excel. It renders fine in CF10 (and prior versions). In CF11, it renders fine in IE10 and in FireFox. It however fails horribly in IE8 and since most of our users are still required to be on IE8, this is a showstopper.Here is the code that sets up the excel dump - page name is show_table.cfm:    <cfif IsDefined('URL.ExcelDump')>        <cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="filename=#Session.utilstablename#.xls">  <cfcontent type="application/vnd.ms-excel">  </cfif>The website runs under SSL.  I have already turned off these lines - with no change in the below error:       <META http-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">        <META http-EQUIV="cache-control" CONTENT=" no-st

I am attempting to download and install about 6 different updates that showed up when I started up CF 10 Admin.   My server has MS Server 2003 installed and there isn't much chance the customer will upgrade it in the near future.  The server is next door to my office, but we don't have KVMs installed and I can access it via Terminal Services.   The process for downloading and installing these updates is taking forever.  Could this issue be due to the fact that I'm using Terminal Services?   Thanx.

I am currently running Coldfusion 10, update 10.  I would like to install the updates, however, I've been getting an error when I login to my Administrative Console about updates - (error invoking CFC/ CFIDE/administrator/updates/download.cfc: internal server error site:forums.adobe.com)   and available updates do not appear in the "Server Update" section.  I would like to download the update and install at command line, but can't find anywhere online to download the actual update.  Please Advise. Is there a link to just download the updates somewhere?

Should ColdFusion <cfoutput> tags be placed inside other tags?Which of these examples is preferred?  Is the other acceptable?ex. A: <cfoutput><img src="#imgurl#"></cfoutput>ex. B: <img src="<cfoutput>#imgurl#</cfoutput>">

I have tried everything to get ColdFusion to accept a unicode filename in an uploaded file, such as 饺ぞぎゅびゃツァ 鄩.txt or unicode_♫.txt. The cffile tag rejects the file (cffile.filewassaved property always false). I have tried all of the following:meta tag <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8">cfprocessingdirective tag <cfprocessingdirective pageencoding="utf-8">cfcontent tag   <cfcontent type="text/html; charset=utf-8">setencoding <cfset SetEncoding("url","utf-8")>  <cfset SetEncoding("form","utf-8")>cffile charset attribute set to charset="UTF-8"Nothing seems to work. Does ColdFusion not accept unicode filenames?

Hi all, Given the trouble I mentioned in my "bind failed, element not found" post on 7/3, I'd like to just destroy a js-created cfwindow when it's hidden (using the onhide event), and create a new one each time. Does anyone know how to destroy a cfwindow. I would have thought it would be along the lines of: ColdFusion.Window.getWindowObject('MyWindow').destroy(); But that doesn't work. Thanks, Russ
