ColdFusion

Hello, I am looking at having to work on a project that the customer is currently on CF 6 MX.  They obviously need to upgrade and so I am looking to experiences, thoughts, advice, anything at all about doing an upgrade over this many versions.  The major question I have is should we go major version to major version and not skip, like 6-7, etc. or is it do-able to go from 6 direct to 11?  Thanks in advance for any info.

CFB3 Question: How can I add an existing cfm page to a project? I created a project and copied a file into the project folder but I can't seem to find a way to add the cfm file into the project.

Hi Folks,I'm running ColdFusion 9 Trial Version (no hotfixes), SQL Express 2005, Windows XP SP3, IIS.Using ColdFusion Administrator, when I try to create a datasource to SQLExpress 2005 (SQL Server Express), using the SQL Server driver, I get the following error:Connection verification failed for data source: AMTjava.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]The requested instance is either invalid or not running.The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]The requested instance is either invalid or not running.The "instance", which I take to mean the database instance, is "machinename\SQLExpress"  (This is a so-called "named instance".)  This is what I enter into the "Server" field of the form (Data & Services -> Datasources -> Microsoft SQL Server).On the other hand, I am able to create an ODBC datasource name in Windows using the Microsoft SQL Server Native Client Version 09.00.3042 driver and using the same insta

Hello,We have just installed the APSB14-23 hotfix for ColdFusion 10. After the installation, we get the following error when we try to reach ColdFusion administrator.

Hello , I am making migration from CF 8 to CF 11. Using MS SQL server. Raised an issue when check the result from cfquery tag.In CF8 all fields which are defined in DB as uniquieidentifier, when I receive the result there are in lowercase , something like this ''4eert4erte4tert4ert4545 .... The same request to the same DB and MS SQL server, but using CF 11 returning the result in capital letters , something like ''4EF56DSE76534SFJSF ....... Do you have an in idea how I could fix this. I assumptions are that this is comming maybe from some settings of the connector of CF to MSSQL , I am not sureis this connector actually is using the JDBC driver . I really stuck in this so any ideas will be welcome.

See the following code: spreadsheetObj = SpreadsheetNew('Metrics',false);SpreadSheetSetColumnWidth(spreadsheetObj, 3, 10);SpreadSheetAddRow(spreadsheetObj,'Merchant ID,Merchant Name,Return Customer#chr(13)##chr(10)#Conversion Rate');SpreadSheetSetRowHeight(spreadsheetObj, 1, 50);SpreadsheetFormatCell(spreadsheetObj, {textwrap=true}, 1, 3);SpreadsheetFormatRow(spreadsheetObj, {textwrap=1}, 1);Even using both Cell and Row formatting I can not get the text to wrap. This is what the resulting file looks like: If I click on C1 and click the "Wrap Text" option in Excel, it formats correctly.. so the line breaks are there. This is CF10 by the way and I believe we run CF11 in production which I think I read solves this problem. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this or documented a fix. I've also tried XLSX and XLS.

I have developed a CRM that is based on sales leads that post to a database.  The CRM index page performs a select query and displays a filtered recordset based on the SQL.  This index page refreshes every 30 seconds via a Meta Tag refresh.  But I am thinking that there must be a more robust/efficient method.  Ideally I would have a popup appear each time that new record posts that when clicked would bring up the detail for the record.  And if such a robust method exists, what might better the overall refresh of the data other than a Meta refresh?  Any direction you can advise would be appreciated,.

So an application I have inheritted has been running for some years with CF8 and Flex. It assigns tasks, appointmnts, rest days, holidays of our operators. The operators open the application on their laptop or available PC. But we think that this system is somehow old and slow and we think we needs more interaction with the operators. One xample of what we need. It would be nice if the operator can inform the app about realtime changes so that another operator can be despatched for backup. Also the operators want to have their own space and communication channels.We want to make the system easier to use. If possible using Coldfusion only. With Ajax? I don't know if this is possible. Any ideas?

We recently upgraded from CF9 to CF11.  I am having an issue where CF is throwing Element undefined in URL when the variable is clearly defined in the URL. Here's the flow...The user clicks an icon to update an item.  A new window is opened and variables are passed in the URL.  User makes the changes, presses submit, CF makes the updates then the Window closes.  This worked fine in CF9.  Since the update when the user presses submit the window never closes and CF throws the error.  Nothing changed in the code.Thanks in advance for any help!Gary

Am converting from Verity to Solr search. Anyone have any luck increasing the length of the summary generated by Coldfusion under Solr? I noticed that with Solr, the summary will list the first few words of whatever you enter for the "body" of the CFINDEX whereas Verity's summary is longer and goes to a paragraph/sentences where it finds the search word criteria (or close to it). Under the Solr, the summary doesn't seem that useful. I want to increase the summary text so it display more...hopefully, useful information.

We are updating our Applications to use single sign on and are running into a problem with database access. We are using CF11 Enterprise and SQL Server 2008 on IIS 7.5.We have set up the ColdFusion Application Service to run under an AD service account and have created the data sources in CFAdmin leaving the username and password blank. The data sources verify and all seems good. The problem comes when running a query. The credential passed to the database is the service account and not the windows authenticated user. As such the query fails. What are we missing to get CF to pass the Windows Authenticated user credential instead of the service account?ThanksTim

I've sent an email to Adobe, and a member of Adobe sales team promise to call me last week, but nobody called me. So i'll try this forum.We are about to upgrade some of our customers ColdFusion 10 Standard servers to ColdFusion 11 Standard. While trying to find information about ColdFusion 11 Standard licensing, we could not find the exact answer regarding to the amount of virtual processor cores.So the question is: How many processor cores does ColdFusion 11 Standard allow on virtual server (vmware) (Windows Server 2012 R2)?Regards,Toni
