ColdFusion

I cannot pass an argument to a ColdFusion 10 web service if it's greater than approximately 5 KB, regardless of the data type. If I do, the browser returns with a "This page cannot be displayed" message (in IE) or "Server not found" (in Firefox).  If I pass data to the same argument and it's < 5 KB, then it works perfectly fine.   Is there a setting somewhere in ColdFusion, IIS or elsewhere that's causing this that I can adjust?  I'm new to ColdFusion 10 and have never run into this with previous CF versions.  I'm running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard - 64 bit- IIS 7.5.  Thanks.

Hi,I have two questions, hope anyone can assist me with?1) I have the drop box is displayed the long list of city names and don't want user to scroll up and down to find the name.  Is there the way we can do autosuggest like on the cfinput tag to narrow down the list in cfselect?2 ) <cfinput type="text" name="city" autosuggest="cfc:cfc.city.lookupName({cfautosuggestvalue})">It works fine with autosuggest, but we can only search for one name, is there the way to search for mutitples?.  For example, if I star enter A in the text box, then it shows Arlington, Angleton,Alvin ..I want to be able to select both Arlington and  Angleton and pass them into arguments?        Thanks

Hi all. In order to buy us time until we can upgrade our farm to CF10, what SMTP email servers can we use? The enterprise is going to Exchange 2010 and I understand CF8 and 9 are not compatible with that version of Exchange.Thanks for your help.-A-

I'm working in an environment where I have code running on CF 7, 8 and 9 on different boxes. The behavior below occurs on all of them.Bascially, CFChart often ignores scaleFrom and scaleTo, depending on the data. You can leave these out and supply a custom xml style file, but the behavior persists - if there's a data point on the boundary of where you want to scale to, CFChart will scale itself vertically to accomodate the data. We see this in our clustered line charts which are designed to be scaled from 0 to 100 - occasionally, a data point of '0' will be in the data, and the y-axis will begin at -20 instead of '0'.  Now, ignoring for the moment that a y-axis defining a range of 0 to 100 should clearly *not* have to scale to have a '0' on it - is there a way to get CFChart to simply not display/truncate data that may be outside the scaleFrom/scaleTo parameters? I'd go as far as to grant that auto-scaling when data is outside the expected bounds of defined scaleFrom and scaleTo p

Hi there - currently we are hosted at Firstserv in the uk but we're considering leasing our own dedicated server from a non coldfusion company (like fasthosts for example) and then installing cf on that box.What sort of cf liscence would we need and what's the most cost effective way to buy it?Currently we use CF8 and are more than happy with it, can one still buy CF8 liscences? or CF9 even?I've seen some pretty high prices (like in the thousands) but I'm hoping they are if you want to host third parties websites.. if you are only hosting your own sites presumably it's not so expensive?Any help very gratefully received.TIANick

HiRecently we are having DSNs disappear from Coldfusion Admnistrator, the problem is intermittent and only affects a few DSNs at a time. Can anyone offer any advice? We have R1Soft Enterprise backups on the server so we could restore backups, but I am having difficulty finding documentation on the process to correctly restore DSNs on a server.This is a production webserver with Plesk 10.4.4 control panel.Server DetailsServer ProductColdFusionVersion9,0,1,274733  EditionStandard  Operating SystemWindows Server 2008 R2  OS Version6.1  Adobe Driver Version4.0 (Build 0005)  Many thanks

Is there a document or additional information on the best way to configure multiple instances of CF10 in a production environment? Do most folks install CF10 as a ear/war J2EE deployment under JBoss or Tomcat with Apache as the webserver?

Hi there,Simple problem hopefully in need of a simple solution.I have a page with a single CFDIV bound to a text field. Within that CFDIV is a form which, when submitted, should submit to and then refresh the parent page. I am using ColdFusion.navigate to accomplish this. The problem is that, when it submits the form, it seems to be doing it via GET (the form values all appear in the URL) rather than POST, even though I've specified POST in ColdFusion.navigate.Parent page:--------------------------<cfform action="board-update.cfm" method="post">       <p>Name:        <cfinput type="text" name="nameText" size="15" maxlength="30" />    </p></cfform><cfdiv bind="url:board-add.cfm?nameText={nameText@keyup}"></cfdiv>board-add.cfm's <cfform> tag:<cfform action="" id="addForm" "javascript:ColdFusion.navigate('board-update.cfm', null, null, null, 'POST', 'addForm');"&gt

I use following code to have my CFGRID to navigate to my page.It navigates to the same Windows,I would like to have it has a new Windows.ColdFusion.navigate(url, 'w2');<cfwindow name="w2" title="CF Window 2" initShow=true     x=250 y=10 width="200">    This is a second cfwindow control.</cfwindow>I got import tags for CFFORM missing, use CFAJAXIMPORT error message.I tried to use to ColdFusion.Winow.create in the javascript function, but I got ColdFusion is not an object or it is null error.Can you please advise any way to create a navigate a link from a CFGRID to let user get current record details information?Your help and information is great appreciated,Regards,Iccsi,

I wanted to "give back" by posting this little code sample for exporting a query into Excel xlsx Kudos to Charlie Arehart for helping me increase the server memory and java heap size.This code works for me using CF 9 on Windows Server 2008 R2. By the way, CFSpreadsheet seems to consume a lot of memory on larger exports. For this reason, we increased the server's physical memory, then used CF Administrator to increase the jvm heap size in the Administrator -> Java and JVM settings. My max java heap size is now 3072.Need help? I recommend you contact Charlie Arehart on server issues: charlie@carehart.orgCode:Example query is called "Myquery" Spreadsheet is called "Myspreadsheet" I export the spreadsheet to a subdirectory called "xlsx" I use cflocation to direct the browser to the spreadsheet. The browser prompts the user to open, save or cancel.<cfset var_filenameis = "Myspreadsheet.xlsx"><cfset SpreadsheetObj = spreadsheetNew("true")><cfset SpreadsheetObj = spreadsheet

Hello, everyone.Is it possible for hackers/attackers to modify the request, server, or application scope?Thank you,^_^

Hello everyone,I have several clients with CF7-10 websites and I need to encrypt/decrypt some text with RSA asymmetric algorithm, where keys are provided as XML files.I have found this example, but I am not sure how to make it work, as it is a little bit old and using generated keys:http://www.12robots.com/index.cfm/2010/7/19/Using-Asymmetric-Cryptography-in-your-ColdFusion-Application--Security-Series-1610Also there are some examples on Java in the net, but I don't have a clue how to convert them too.Does anyone have ready solution or code example for provided keys?Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi There,I am unable to install Hotfix 11.(Windows Server 2008)I kept getting an error id 2 - when the CF service attempted to restart.At first I thought it was because I was using the lockdown guide...So I;Deleted all the request filter rules,Deleted the admin web site,(basically I reverted all the changes I made via the lockdown guide.)I then uninstalled CFReinstalled CFNo Secure profile - no special users etc....A vanilla install.i then did the mandatory update.I then attempted to apply hotfix 11.It refused to install.I installed Hotfix 10 - which was successful.However now, I get a internal server error code 500.it urned on debugging - but I assume the admin turns it off - because I cannot get any debug information to show on the updates page.My CF applications seems to be working correctly, though.If anyone has any ideas I would be appreciative!Gavin.

Hello,I've been asked to install Coldfusion 10 Enterprise on a server.We have a Coldfusion 10 Enterprise upgrade key.I'm having a hard time to find a place at adobe.com to downlaod the install file.Finally I downloaded the trial, hoping it would also be the enterprise version after entering the key.From previous installation documentation of our Coldfusion 8 and 9 servers, during installation, after the screen where the serial is eneterd, I expected to get a screen where I can choose 1.Server configuration 2. Enterprise multiserver configuration or 3. J2EE configuration.With the downloaded ColdFusion_10_WWEJ_win64.exe I only get the choices Server and JEE.Do I have the wrong download, or is the Enterprise option left away in the Installation wizard?Regards,Han

I have installed the mandatory update and was going to finish installing the rest, however when I go to the admin page and updates, the title screen comes up but nothing else. No "check for updates" button or installed updates, nothing.

Trying to send mail with CF10 and I am getting connect errors from Java.  I have tried to get the mail function to work with 2 internal SMTP (MSFT and Smartermail) and one external.  I can successfully verify connections to any of these servers, but when I try to send mail to them, I get this in the error log:"Error","scheduler-1","07/19/13","07:40:32",,"javax.mail.MessagingException: IOException while sending message;   nested exception is:java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect"the full exception is:"Error","scheduler-1","07/19/13","07:41:35",,"javax.mail.MessagingException: IOException while sending message;   nested exception is:java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect"javax.mail.MessagingException: IOException while sending message;  nested exception is:java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connectat com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.sendMessage(SMTPTransport.java:1141)at coldfusion.mail.MailSpooler.deliv

I've tried to perform a clean install on a Win2k8 R2 x64 server several times and I can't seem to get it to install.I was upgrading from CF 9, which took several attempts. I eventually got CF 10 working and running with the latest updates. But the server would only run for about 15 minutes and everything would come to a screaching hault. ColdFusion pages would fail to load with no error. The pages would hang and wait for the server to respond, which it never did. Restarting IIS would fix the problem.I have about 20 CF sites on the machine. I came accross an article that talked about pool sizes, etc. I ended up trying a few things with the Web Server Configuration Tool, and as I was adding/deleting servers, I got an error that some application unexpectedly quit, but it wasn't the wsconfig tool. This happened about 3 times as I was deleting servers that I had previously added. Then I tried loading the CF Admin and I got a 500.0 internal server error.So I bit the bullet and figured I woul

We are experiencing the SESSION variables resetting in CF9.0.2 between page navigation.As I understand from other forums there was a patch for 9.0.1 to help with this but we are on 9.0.2 which was the cumulative release. Short of recoding every CFLOCATION and HREF. I have not seen a real solution for this issue posted on any forums as of yet.We have checked and looked into the CFapplication (application.cfc) files and making sure the Application, Session, and Clientmanagment are enabled. (So please save us all time and to do not reply with flippant did you try the obvious questions) Is there a real fix for this issue in CF9? Or are SESSION variables useless as of the 9th release?

Hello,I work for a company that has a very old application that runs with CF7 on a SunONE server.  Yesterday we starting getting the notice that our Java plugin was out of date company wide on a specific page with a <CFTree> tag.  After updating the Java browser plugin we now get a Java Authentication Required username and password window. No one has any idea where this login popup is coming from. Updating this application is not an option at this time due to cost and age of the application.Anyone have any ideas?Here is what the login popup looks like for reference:Thanks,Turnerpro
