ColdFusion

I created a cfcomponent and a bunch functions inside it.  One of the function needs to call a process that is also needed by other part of the application. Since this "process" is needed in a different parts of the application, I decided to make this "process"  a global function that can be called from any part of the application. I found a blog from Ben Nadel that explained exactly what I need. But the problem is I don't quite understand how to call the globa UDF, his explanation is not clear to me. Ben created UDF.cfc:    cfcomponent  output="false"  hint="I define the application settings and event handlers.         cffunction name="getMessage" access="public" returntype="string" output="false" hint="I return a test message."     -- Here is where I wrote the process needed by different parts of the application --         cfreturn "I am defined in the UDF compo

Getting the following error on Event Viewer:ColdFusion 11 ODBC Server@LOCALHOST,ErrorCode=3059,ErrorMessage=The specified data source is not defined.,ClientHost=127.0.0.1,Session=6Everything seems to be working - any idea? I am trying to move over from CF 8Thank you!

I have the coldfusion builder3 60 day trial. I bought a license. Now when I try to install i am asked for my previous serial number.

I just recently updated to..Version: 3.0.0Build: 290423When I conduct a search on my workspace, I get the results based on the matching string. {good}When I click on the line item for a particular file from the search (results) panel, the file (File A) opens and the queried string is highlighted. {good}Among the search results, are references to other files the string was also found. {good}If I click on the line item for another file (File B), File A closes and File B takes its place in the main file edit panel. {bad}Previously, "clicked" matches from the search results would open the file and add it in the edit panel as a new panel. With enough screen real-estate I could compare files. However, any file opened now from the search results replaces any previous searched file.I hope this is not a bug, but rather just some preference that needs to modified.

Hello all-I've got a brand-new CF 11 install running on Windows Server 2012 R2 and IIS 8.The server runs great...most of the time.  But there are many times when you hit a page and it sits...and sits...maybe for 10 seconds or so, then it spits the page out.  Then I'll hit 10 pages in a row that are delivered instantly, then we wait again.Additionally, while using CF Builder 3, I have problems where the program won't accept any text input for a few seconds.  I'm typing along and everything is jim dandy, then it freezes for 5 seconds or so...then I can type again.I feel like these problems are related- it's just like the server freezes up for a bit.Last thing- when I go onto the site the first time in the morning, I *always* need to wait about 10 seconds for the first page to load.  That is the most consistent problem.Any ideas on what can be causing this slowdown?Thanks- Karl

Enterprise multiple instances aren’t created properly with a separate service account. The issues I am having are very similar to the issues reported in the link below. https://forums.adobe.com/message/6584848#6584848My CF 11 Enterprise will not create additional services for my cold fusion sites beyond the initial service created during the install process. My problems are compounded because when I try and uninstall the CF11 application the uninstall process hangs and throws the error below. I am now forced to try and uninstall manually to reinstall CF11.

Hi,I've been able to get my CF10 server up and running (thanks Rupesh!) and am trying to do some configuration.I installed the Solr search service during the installation but when I go to the collections screen in the CF Administrator it says "Unable to retrieve collections from the Search Services. Ensure that you have installed ColdFusion Search Service and it is running."now checking for the process shows it's running[root@LMCFXD02 /]# ps -ef | grep solrroot     15563  1987  0 11:33 pts/0    00:00:00 grep solrCan anybody shed some light on why I can't create a new collection?Cheers,Simon

Hello - We recently purchased four ColdFusion 10 Enterprise Licenses to refresh our production webservers.  We are currently testing our buildout, and one of the two initial servers has been giving us intermittent issues.  It seems that occasionally apache hands off the request to the coldfusion back end, but it never receives a response from the CF service, and the connection just hangs in a "W" Sending Reply state, with no obvious timeout.  I do not see any active threads in the coldfusion Server Monitor.  I see connections on the Apache server-status page that have been in the same state for 54,000 seconds and counting.  The end result is that the browser just hangs waiting for a response, but never timing out.  We estimate between 1% and 2% of all requests wind up in this hung state. We have ensured that the /etc/hosts and /etc/resolve.conf files are correct.  I see no obvious errors in with the apache logs or coldfusion logs. Details: Coldfusion

I understand that CF10 removes the ability to have multiple logins to the administrator pages due to security concerns.  Not only is this is a huge inconvenience, it prohibits the use of multiserver monitor or server manager since it only allows one concurrent login per physical server.  Has anyone found a workaround?  I have tried multiple usernames, however I still get logged out if a different user logs in to a different instance.  Thanks, -Tony

Is there any way to specify which instance is used by URL when apache is connected to a CF10 cluster?  We have one instance that handles all our scheduled tasks, and we would like to make sure calls to localhost run on the same instance, not load balanced between the cluster members.  We could create a F/S link (centos) to add the codebase to the CFIDE webroot, and then specify the administration port for the one instance, but I was hoping for a more simplified and elegant solution.Thanks, -Tony

Reopenning/re-validation a connection during a request: I'm aware of pooling, recycling, test-on-borrow queries etc. However, I also realize that within a single request scope, a data source connection is only opened once, and is not tested throughout the request.The case in hand I have is a two data sources based report, issuing a query on datasource1, then datasource2, then back on datasource1. The datasource2 query takes a long time, by which the datasource2 connection turns invalid.Question being: is there a way to force CF to re-open/re-borrow/re-validate connections even throughout the request scope?

Has anyone had success in using CF11's new "data" attribute of CFCHARTSERIES?  In particular I'm currently trying to get a pie chart working.  The documentation says:The chart data. This is an array of arrays.Specify the data as follows: 2,3],[4,5]] or [[3,4,5],[6,7,3]] for charts with z parameter such as bubble chart, or {{[3,4]}} in case of pie charts.I'm having trouble following what they're trying to say for pie charts.  Inputting what the documentation says, {{[3,4]}}, gives an error.  Using the array of arrays I can only get one pie slice to show or I get multiple charts showing...all with only one piece of data.The ZingCharts JSON I believe should be something like this but all I get are errors with each variation of this I try: [            {                "values":[11],

Cross-Post from Stack-Overflow: ColdFusion 10 instance/Tomcat dying at predictable intervals (white screen of death) - Stack Overflow---For the last few days out team has been struggling with an ongoing issue where at very predictable intervals one ColdFusion instance has been white-screen-of-death-ing.Every three hours the site would simply start returning a blank white page for any url.  We would then restart the instance and everything would be great... for another three hours, almost to the minute. Of course this happened on a Friday, so all weekend people were taking turns re-booting the instance every time it died.As best as I can discern, no one made any changes to either ColdFusion or our server environment right before this started happening. Before this the instance was running fine.Since then we've seen that the isapi_redirect.log file for this instance is filled with Tomcat/connection errors.We followed the excellent instructions at Resolve Stability Problems and SPEED

Hi -Has anyone installed CF11 with Plesk 11.5 or Plesk 12?  If so, did you have any issues with the install?  How many websites do you have within Plesk?Thanks.

When I try to create a DNS to connect to a SQL Server Database (2014), I get a failure:Connection verification failed for data source: soundingsjava.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]The connection to the host HOMEBIZ, named instance SQLEXPRESS (local) has failed.

I am using ColdFusion 11 on Windows2008 R2. From what I understand, if there is an application.cfm page in the root folder, that any .cfm page below the root will process this page first and then process the regular .cfm page. I noticed that it processes my regular page FIRST and then calls the application.cfm page.In my case I have a web page that updates a database, but in my application.cfm page, I check a session variable to see if the user is logged in. If they are not logged in, then I redirect them to a log in page, let them log in, set the session variable and then redirect them back to process the page. But I noticed, that when I run the page, the database gets updated and THEN the user gets redirected to log in, then the database gets updated again.Am I not using the application.cfm page correctly? I thought it was supposed to be used to check log ins and things like that. How do I ensure that it runs first?Btw, it is the only application.cfm page in the entire web site and I
