ColdFusion

Hi All Hoping someone may be able to assist me I havent used ColdFusion for several years so somewhat rusty and the foruuums that I used to refer to are mostly not available anymore. I have a small project where I have been asked to use CF to creat a form to caopture information. I have been asked to capture information relating to employees in an organisation. I want to capture their names and employee number - this part is easy and have no problems doing this. The next part is the tricky part. I want to capture all the previous organisations and positions that the person has worked for in the last 20 years. For many people this is likely to be just one or two. I do know however that for over 20 people they have worked for 10 plus organisations. So how do I do this? On the screen I will show fields etc to give the user the opportunity to enter their name and their employee id etc. and then I want to allow them to enter previous organistion and p

in the CF2023 support matrix for Oracle I see only Oracle19C supportedhttps://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/coldfusion2023-suport-matrix.pdf instead on CF2021 I also see Oracle11ghttps://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/coldfusion2021-support-matrix.pdf question is: is Oracle11g supported on CF2023? #cf2023 #oracle11g

Greetings all. OK.  I have searches against a collection generated by a script containing about a dozen sql/server datafields running fine in one of our modules used to search jobs. However, I have a collection which was created against 60,000+ resumes utilizing the "Add New Solr Collection" option in the CF Administrator which is giving me trouble.Basically, the collection was generated against a directory of numbered files 1 - 60000+ with .doc .docx .txt & .pdf extensions.  (e.g  1234.doc).The error I am getting is:**********************************[Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]There are more columns in the INSERT statement than values specified in the VALUES clause. The number of values in the VALUES clause must match the number of columns specified in the INSERT statement.******************************The line involved is #47 as shown in the code below.Here is the code I am using to try & utilize the output generated by a keyword sea

This may sound off the wall: I need to take a pdf and display it a person over the internet. I need them to be able to add an image anywhere they want in that pdf (If I need to change the pdf to a jpeg or gif, that's fine). Imagine that they're looking at the image in their browser. They click on a specific part of the image they want to push a thumbtack (for example) into. The thumbtack appears on that spot of the image. They should be able to repeat this several times, so there may end being several thumbtacks on the image. The image then gets saved that way once they're done. Any ideas on where to start?

I have written, published and tested a web service in ColdFusion. I have a test server running on port 8500. I have a production server running on port 8028. I have the IIS connector installed as well. My question is in regard to making my REST service available on the Internet. My ColdFusion Server is on AWS, everything works fine on localhost/127.0.0.1 with on port:8028  So, as an example, my Rest service is running happily on: mymachine:8028/myrestservice/{argument_variable1}-{argument_variable2}  Now, I want to expose it (I have the domain) on subdomain.mydomain.com.au/somepath_or_paths/{argument_variable1}-{argument_variable2}  Can someone help me out by pointing me to a resource to do this? Do I need to set up something in AWS to reverse proxy requests to my server? Thank you.

I’ve run into an issue in the Adobe ColdFusion Builder extension for Visual Studio Code. I’m developing a ColdBox application using VS Code as my IDE. I’ve encountered a problem where VS Code fails to navigate to function definitions or references for objects created with ColdBox’s WireBox getInstance() and inject methods. This functionality works fine for objects instantiated with the new operator, but not for those managed by WireBox(ColdBox's Dependency Injection Module). Has anyone else encountered this issue? Are there any tools, extensions, or settings adjustments you would recommend to improve code navigation for WireBox-injected objects? Does VSCode extension has a manual mapping option like the old Eclipse-based CFBuilder used to ? I’m currently using ColdFusion (2021), ColdBox (coldbox-7.2), and the latest Adobe ColdFusion Builder extension for VS Code. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Coldfusion 2023, latest updates.We are getting vulnerability hits from our internal scanning tools because Directory Listing is possible on our servers installed with the Development Profile. Turning off directory browsing in IIS does not work.The Production Profile servers do not have this issue. Which makes sense according to these docs: https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/installing/understanding-coldfusion-server-profiles.html We don't need directory listing. But I cannot find a way to disable it. The link above says you cannot change the profile, but you can change the settings. Is there a way to do this in CFAdmin? Or in a settings file somewhere?

We have setup Coldfusion 2021 on a Linux 8 server. The installion is protected via F5(firewall).Is there any document which shows which url's and ports to open in the firewall so we are able to download and update patches from Admin console and carry out other Admin stuff?So far, I have requested the following to be opened *.fusionreactor.io*.adobe.com*.deploy.akamaitechnologies.com Anything more needed to be opened at firewall level?  

We have ColdFusion 2018 on Windows 2019 and are upgrading to ColdFusion 2023. Is it better to de-install CF2018 and then install CF2023, or just install CF2023 over CF2018? 

Well folks while I'm waiting to resolve the html data field validation bug, I started working on collections. In CF 4.51 I have 6 collections.  3 of them are:TEN_Apps_agTEN_Apps_hoTEN_Apps_pzBasically, these are populated with .txt files while were extracted from resumes with the following formats:  .doc, .docx, .html, .txt resumes.  There are 20,000 + or -  files in each of them. I am only able to index the folder ending in ho.  And it only contains 8,396 documents.  Whereas the folder contains 19,385 .txt files.  I presume CF2023 collection should contain 19,385 documents? The other two folders bomb out when I try to index them resulting in zero documents being populated in the corresponding collections.  I have checked the source folders and they only contain .txt files.  Thus, I have no clue as to why the processing fails. It would require far less code changes, were we able to use our current collection scheme and si

Hello, Is the online video curriculum for the Adobe CF Specialist certification/coursework from a few years ago the same online video curriculum that is used with the newer Adobe Certified Professional: Adobe ColdFusion? I've purchased both expecting an update, on the videos but am told both certifications use the same video curriculum. I'm not complaining - Damien and Nolan's videos are great - but I was expecting some updates to reflect new versions of ColdFusion. Thanks. 

I am creating a new thread for this question so someone else in the community might be able to easily find it.I have searched far and wide and have discovered that CF 2023 supports a solr function that did not exist in CF 4.51.I finally found this on Quora.******************************You can connect Solr with MS SQL Server by using the Solr Data Import Handler (DIH) and configuring it to fetch data from SQL Server. Here are the basic steps:Install and configure Solr on your server.Download the Microsoft JDBC driver for SQL Server.Copy the JDBC driver JAR file to the Solr server.Create a data source name (DSN) for the SQL Server database using the JDBC driver.Configure the Solr DIH to use the SQL Server DSN as a data source.Define the SQL queries that will fetch the data from the SQL Server database.Run a full import to fetch the data from SQL Server into Solr.Once the data is imported, you can use Solr to index and search the data.**********************************************I have

I have a running website and inside WEB-INF > lucee there is a folder called cfcclasses. In it, I got something like this: What for is this? How is it generated and is it required? As you can see I also got bellow 3 more folders with some context and library. I have no idea why this folder contains contact_us when it is no longer used. 

I am locking down a new CF 2023 installation using the autolockdown application but am getting an error when I enter the administrator credentials which I have triple-checked as being correct. I saw another post in the Adobe community where the solution was to install some packages in the admin, but everything is already installed as I used the GUI installer. Log contents:2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - Path:C:\ColdFusion2023\lockdown\cfusion 2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - LINE_DEBUGGER_ENABLED -> null 2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - developer_enabled -> false 2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - REMOTE_INSPECTION_ENABLED -> null 2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - ajax_enabled -> false 2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - robust_enabled -> false 2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - FLASHFORMCOMPILEERRORS -> null 2023-11-03 13:05:14 INFO - enabled -> false 2023-11-03 13:05:16 INFO - ColdFusion is running 2023-11-03 13:05:21 INFO - Firewall status: Domain Profile Settings: ------------------------------

My client has the enterprise version of CF running on the live server - with the API manager running there.We developers run our own development editions of CF, and use change and source control to send the code live.However, the only version of API Manager we can find are trials - which stop running after 30 days.Is there a developer edition somewhere? How are we supposed to develop and test our potential changes to API Manager methods and functions outside the live service??Thanks in advance,Al Holden

I am trying to establish a LDAP connection (<cfldap>) from within a Docker image of Coldfusion 2021. It would be hard to post any relavent code here simply because it would expose our AD tree, however, the same code I am trying to run works just fine from an installed copy of CF2021 on a linux server.The reason for using a Docker image (vs. install) in this instance, is an attempt to setup a local development environment. So far, everything seems to be working great with the exception of LDAP calls. The error I'm getting:An error has occurred while trying to execute query :Could not resolve a valid ldap host  Note: I have successfully run a ldapsearch call from a bash shell within the container.

I installed fresh version of CF2021 on Centos 7 to do some testing. I also installed mod_jk connectorsudo ./wsconfig -ws Apache -bin /usr/sbin/httpd -script /usr/sbin/apachectl -dir /etc/httpd/conf/ -v I noticed this file that was created: mod_jk_vhost.confI have not see that before for some reason, is this file purpose just to organize/separate mod_jk.confoptions or does it have some other purpose? In another words, do I have to use it in CF2021 Update 12? thanks  

We are using JRE that came with ColdFusion 2021 on Centos 7 From CF admin settings:Java Version 11.0.7Java Vendor Oracle CorporationJava Vendor URL https://openjdk.java.net/Java Home /../coldfusion2021/jre Does JRE get the updates when the Coldfusion 2021 patches are applied (Update 1-12) or do the CF admins typically have to manually patch JRE?  

I'm trying to use the scan command for cfpm (on a Windows machine).  I have taken the following steps:Opened the command promptEntered the collowing command: c:\ColdFusion2021\cfusion\bin\cfpmAt the ensuing cfpm prompt entered the command: scan c:\path\to\applicationI get the following error message:Incorrect usage of scan command. It must be scan CODEBASEPATH CFSERVERURL. The "c:\path\to\application" is correct and exists.  I am issuing the scan command from the cfpm prompt.  Any suggestions why I am receiving this error would be helpful. Thanks 

I'm tryinge to the function GeneratePKCE() from the object pkce but getting this :Could not find the ColdFusion component or interface utils.deps.pkce.pkce.Is a way to install this tool PKCE to Coldfusion?It must be used for authentication with openID.Thanks

I have a cfm page that list employees reporting to a manager. The manager can drill down on employee ID to see more info about the employee and can update some information. I set a session variable to capture the employee ID when manager selects a particular employee. Now if the same manager opens a second tab/window on the same browser and opens the same app select a second employee the session variable gets overwritten with the second employee ID. How can i keep the value of both session variables separate? Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Why does the following code not throw an exception when timeout is exceeded?CF Admin "Timeout Requests after seconds" is checked and set to 2 seconds.<cftry> <cflock scope="application" type="exclusive" timeout="2" throwontimeout="yes"> <cfset sleep(3000)> </cflock> <cfcatch type="any"> <h1>My Exception</h1> <cfdump var="#cfcatch.type#"> <cfdump var="#cfcatch.Message#"> </cfcatch> </cftry>  

Hi all,I have configure IIS with multiple .net applications and coldfusion sites.All are running under the same DefaultApplicationPool.I add a new coldfusion site an I Add Application with different Application Pool. Getting error:HTTP Error 403.18 - ForbiddenThe specified request cannot be processed in the application pool that is configured for this resource on the Web server.Most likely causes:An ISAPI filter or custom module changed the URL to run in a different application pool than the original URL.An ISAPI extension (or custom module) used ExecuteURL (or ExecuteRequest) to run in a different application pool than the original URL.You have a custom error page that is located in one application pool but is referenced by a Web site in another application pool. When the URL is processed, it is determined by IIS that that it should have been processed in the first application pool, not the other pool.The Web site has multiple applications configured.

I had to upgrade to a new computer, meaning everything started over (UGH!!!) I installed CF2023 and have been working through each problem I run into (hat tip to Dave Byers for helping me with SQL connection). Anyway, my most recent issue is that some stylesheets, not all which is perplexing, can't be found. They're in the folders, I've refreshed my cache, I've even re-downloaded files from the live server, but no change. Same with some images. I find ideas for older versions of CF, one talking about how it's IIS, but not being a server person, they're all greek to me. Any idea what might be causing this and how I can resolve it?
