ColdFusion

Hi, i installed CF2023 on windows and apache 2.4.58I configured apache DocumentRoot and directory on c:/www and i test and work fine with virtual hosts with html pages.I configured the connector with "web server configuration tool" but don't run correctly. The configurator add correctly to httpd.conf Include "C:\Apache24\conf\mod_jk.conf"Include "C:\ColdFusion2023\config\wsconfig\1\mod_jk_vhost.conf" when i try to view a page, for example index.cfm I view the index file present in the directoryC:\ColdFusion2023\cfusion\wwwrootwhether you use the server's IP or a domain configured as virtual hoststhe mod_jk.log log doesn't give me any errorsI configured the connector with:appserverhost: localhostweb server propertiesconfig directory: I choose the right dirApache virtual host: I select "all"In Advanced i chose apache exe file where am I wrong or what should I do to make the connector work properly? Many thanksMarco  

Hey, trying to setup CF 2023 / Java 17 to run properly on Kubernetes and while trying to setup jvm.config and setting -XX:MaxRAMPercentage=70 -XX:InitialRAMPercentage=70rather than something like-Xms1024m -Xmx1024mas it is much easier to manage regarding the pods memory requests, Service is starting just fine but the "Java and JVM" admin console is broken with errorElement JDKPATH is undefined in FORM. The specific sequence of files included or processed is: /opt/coldfusion/cfusion/wwwroot/CFIDE/administrator/settings/jvm.cfm, line: 227 My guess is that console is trying to read -Xms and -Xmx values in a non safe way and should fail gracefully or even better deal with XX:MaxRAMPercentage and XX:InitialRAMPercentage (and others).Also, would love to know if anybody has more experience on running CF 2023 in Kubernetes and some best practices for it. Really interested on Garbage Collection settings for example.

Hi,I'm installing cf 2023 standard edition on a windows server.I have installed apache web server.At this link:https://helpx.adobe.com/it/coldfusion/installing/installing-the-server-configuration.htmlI found the installation steps. How do I start this builder? because I downloaded the GUI version but when choosing the webserver it only shows me the build-in  I hope I was clearMany thanksMarco

Adobe published these books for Adobe ColdFusion 8 and 9: Exist some new edition for Adobe ColdFusion 2021 or 2023?

Has anyone attempted to perform OCR with CF? I have been tasked with extracting the text from a faxed image file (TIF).   Are there any open source OCR APIs to integrate with CF? 

Exists a current version about Adobe ColdFusion Report Builder as Adobe ColdFusion Report Builder 2023? 

On my production server (coldfusion 2023) the following error is displayed "The web site you are accessing has experienced an unexpected error. Please contact the website administrator. " and under it it shows the error "The following information is meant for the website developer for debugging purposes.Error Occurred While Processing Request ..."For security reasons I don't want de server to show the error. So I have disabled the debugging output in coldfusion admin but it still shows the error eb=ven after a restart. What am i missing here?

The Coldfusion Application Server service can sometimes just freeze.  It does not fail, it just stops working. Restarting the service fixes this.  Can occur when a server re-boots after overnight patching or just stop in the middle of the day.  There are often serveral days between this happening. (1) Does anyone know why this happens?(2) Thinking of making the service Automatic Delayed start instead of Automatic start (in case it was waiting for other services to start in the re-boot cases) - BUT are there other services who will still be Automatic start that depend on this service? If this does not resolve the issue, we will run a regular job to just restart this service each day.

Hi everyone, I am using the CFDOCUMENT to create the traditional "print this page" method from informational page of services. I am using this tag since CF7 and I would say that I am use to it. since I am now using CF8, it seems that the tag change a bit. I am not talking about the new features we can use with this tag (such as CFDOCUMENTSECTION) but when I am using the CFDOCUMENTITEM to create my "header", the font and the image are not show up as I asked. for an example, I asked to display a text in the font-size 10pt while I display a text in the footer with the font-size 8pt; the text from the footer is much bigger than the text in the header! As for the logo of the company, it has 176 X 117 pixels but it appears on the screen like a 50 X 30 pixels. Is it something that I miss how to use this are of a CFDOCUMENT? And more important for me, Am I the only one who got this problem? Thank you for any assistance! And here some code for the one of you who would like to see the detail

I have a fairly long HTML page which produces a PDF via CFDocument, but this apparently has a mind of its own, as it is not obeying the font sizes I put in. Whether it is 10pt or 50pt, it comes out exactly the same. So I can't tell if I'm missing something, or it's just not working. I've tried putting the CSS directly inside the CFDocument tag, in the stylesheet, etc., no change. I think it may have something to do with the scaling mentioned at the bottom of the LiveDocs page for CFDocument, though I can't get it to scale back up to 100%. It looks larger on page with less data, and smaller on pages with a lot of data. Suggestions?

I have been getting conflicting information. Just want to make sure I will be able to use this license if I buy.

ColdFusion 2023 Licensed Standard Edition (also tried on Enterprise Edition trial). We have a MongoDB NoSQL Database we wish to access from ColdFusion. We have a known-good connection string to the database which we can use with NoSQLBooster and MongoDBCompass on the server. What I cannot get to work is the datasource in ColdFusion. I can configure a datasource using 3rd party JDBC drivers, but these come with a hefty annual fee. ColdFusion advertises support for MongoDB, so cannot justify this unbudgeted expense. In earlier versions of ColdFusion it was necessary to download and install MongoDB separately. I've attempted to follow the instructions to use cfpm.bat with the 'install cfmongodb' command but the server responds with 'cfmongodb (2023.0.05.330608) package is already installed'. Support for MongoDB appears to be present. The message returned by CF Admin NoSQL Datasources is:Data source could not be verified. Unable to connect to the MongoDB datasource with host

Hello,I have ColdFusion 2021 HF 12 running on Windows Server 2016, connecting to an SQL database and to Crystal Server 2020 for generating reports. Everything works without issue until I request a report over about 400 pages. In that case, CF crashes with a generic 500 error when trying to open the report returned from Crystal Server. I cannot find where in CF I can configure a larger buffer or transfer limit to allow the larger file. Any suggestions? The report will be about 600 pages in pdf format.Thanks,Todd

Hey all.Had something weird happened last night/this morning.Post OS Updates (I don't think it's MS Updates - but it is a change) last night my production instance of our CF21 server stopped connecting to the backend SQL Server with the following error: Connection verification failed for data source: <DSNName>java.sql.SQLException: Timed out trying to establish connection Looking in the coldfusion-error.log I see.... Exception in thread "Thread-948" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/ddtek/jdbc/extensions/ExtEmbeddedConnectionat macromedia.jdbc.sqlserver.base.r.dg(|SQLServer|6.0.0.1282|:49)at macromedia.jdbc.sqlserver.base.s.I(|SQLServer|6.0.0.1282|:135)at macromedia.jdbc.sqlserver.base.BaseDriver.connect(|SQLServer|6.0.0.1282|:190)at macromedia.jdbc.MacromediaDriver.connect(MacromediaDriver.java:256)at coldfusion.server.j2ee.sql.pool.JDBCPool.createPhysicalConnection(JDBCPool.java:666)at coldfusion.server.j2ee.sql.pool.ConnectionRunner$RunnableConnection.run(Conn

We are on CF21 with hotfix update 10 installed.Our IT department runs security scans and the results are flagging these log4j files.Some are in the recycle bin, installer folders, hot fix folders and others in JRE folder. Question, can be deleted and which ones needs to remediated?Thanks in advance.  (F:\ColdFusion2021\cfusion\hf-updates\hf-2021-00005-330109\backup\lib\log4j-core-2.13.3.jar) (F:\$RECYCLE.BIN\S-1-5-21-2905054116-597314085-1704472974-66584\$RJBPHP9\backup\lib\log4j-core-2.13.3.jar) (F:\$RECYCLE.BIN\S-1-5-21-2905054116-597314085-1704472974-66584\$RJBPHP9\backup\jetty\lib\ext\log4j-1.2.17.jar) (F:\ColdFusion2021\cfusion\hf-updates\hf-2021-00005-330109\backup\jetty\lib\ext\log4j-1.2.17.jar) (D:\misc-installers\log4j-core-2.16.0.jar)  (F:\ColdFusion2021\jre\lib\log4j-core-2.13.3.jar)(F:\$RECYCLE.BIN\S-1-5-21-2905054116-597314085-1704472974-66584\$ROWNOOF\backup\lib\log4j-core-2.13.3.jar) (F:\$RECYCLE.BIN\S-1-5-21-2905054116-597314

We have been having Cyber attacks and I have handles most with error trapping. I would like to improve on this by trapping any page calls that are not from our domain. Is there a way in ColdFusion to identify the calling url? 

I've just installed ColdFusion 2021 as a Development server.  I'm trying to attach an Access database as a Datasource.  It comes back with something like "ODBC service not running, or is not installed."  When I was installing CF2021, the ODBC Services checkbox on the sub-components installation page is greyed-out, so I am unable to check it.  What next? 

Hello everyone,I wondering if there is any source out there to list all issues like syntax, etc. when upgrade from earlier version of ColdFusion applications to CF21 or CF23 applications?Thank you.

We're adding in a high availability cluster for SQL server and I can't seem to find the version of the DataDirect JDBC driver for ColdFusion 2021 (build 2021,0,12,330257).  Any ideas?  Need to know if it's going to support the MultiSubnetFailover=True parameter to all a LNN configuration.  

Hi.I have a large application that is composed of various sub directories.All of the subdirectories share the same Application.cfc and session, but I'd like to allow each subdirectory to have its own "java_lib" folder with jar files, and to set this.javasettings.loadPaths in each subdirectory/Application.cfc, extending from /Application.cfc and just change its loadPaths. The actual problem I am having, is that sometimes this work and sometimes I get a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException. Is it possible to do this, or do I need to restart the application with every loadPaths change?I understand that I could set all the paths in a single Application.cfc in my root folder, but I'd like to have these subfolders as independant as it could be from each other. Or perhaps is it possible to call some coldfusion.bootstrap.something method to refresh the class loader? 

Hi, We recently learned from ColdFusion 2018, Update 15 that log files page on ColdFusion Administrator has been modified to remove the buttons to View, Download, and Delete a log files. And, log files are no longer clickable.  Could you someone please provide any information that you may have on why it was modified and what alternatives we have to view the log files through administrator?  Thanks in advance!! -RP

Until this past spring, my sites CMS worked wonderfully. Multiple forms and processing pages.Then, my admin applied a series of patches to ColdFusion and now, all forms stopped working. In every case, the processing file returns the error "Form.Xvalue not found in form "and of course stops everything cold. The form values should be passing from "WebEdit.cfm" to "webeditprocess.cfm".Given this problem started with every form on the site at nearly the same time, and around the time of the patches, I'm inferring something is amiss on the server.Before I post lines and lines of code, does anyone know of an admin level setting in cold fusion that would cause the issue?Our server is running ColdFusion (2021 Release) Enterprise. Would that release make a difference?

Hello Experts, I’ve been succesfully running an application on CF2016 Standard which manipulates PDF files using the <cfpdf action="processddx" …> tag (adding some header / footer / watermark).After migrating the server to CF2021 everything works as expected under Developer License.As soon as I register the CF2021 Standard license the DDX processing gets ignored and PDF files remain unchanged. This behavior is reproducible by switching between the "dveloper" and "Standard" license key. Has anybody else encountered this issue?I wonder whether it is just a bug or a change in the license policy? And if so, where it has been announced - i didn't find any hints on the Adobe website. Thanks a lot,Peter 

Hi, Earlier this week we migrated from 2016 to 2021. The Microsoft SQL Server DSN no longer worked after migration. But since time was of the essence, I set that issue aside and tried ODBC Sockets. This worked just fine. I should note that I did this before running all the patches and updates. Today I migrated another server, same basic method but I did the patches before adding ODBC socket connections. Now if I select ODBC socket as driver type and click add, the form to enter connection info does not appear at all. Oddly, when I go back to the first server migrated, the same thing now happens if I try and add a new odbc socket or edit the existing ones. But the existing DSNs still work... Any thoughts? TIA!
