x = nullif (x != null) {} Both of these statments fail when used in a custom tag.  Both statements succeed when using in the requested template or a template that is included in another template. This issue occurs when using tag or script syntax. Can anyone else reproduce this issue? Version: 2021,0,03,329779 Message: Variable NULL is undefined. Stack Trace: coldfusion.runtime.UndefinedVariableException: Variable NULL is undefined. at coldfusion.runtime.CfJspPage._get(CfJspPage.java:462) at coldfusion.runtime.CfJspPage._get(CfJspPage.java:417) at coldfusion.runtime.CfJspPage._get(CfJspPage.java:396) at coldfusion.runtime.CfJspPage._autoscalarize(CfJspPage.java:2363) at cfrendercourse2ecfm589117369.runPage(C:\home\evansville.edu\custom-tags\course\rendercourse.cfm:2) at coldfusion.runtime.CfJspPage.invoke(CfJspPage.java:257) at coldfusion.filter.CFVariablesScopeFilter.invoke(CFVariablesScopeFilter.java:56) at coldfusion.tagext.lang.ModuleTag.doStartTag

I'm running into a rather strange issue and I don't know how to debug it. I'm using a per-application datasource feature in the `Application.cfc`: this.datasources[ "bennadel" ] = { .... } And, when I restart the ColdFusion service is sometimes says that the datasource cannot be found. This "state" seems to hold for the entire life of the application, and all requests coming into the application are breaking. But then, if I restart the ColdFusion service again, it works fine (probably). I'm kind of stumped here - not sure how to even go about debugging this.

Hello. On the Adobe Help site, I'm seeing a notice on many array functions about CORBA being removed for CF 2021. I'm trying to find a future-friendly way to, for instance, see if a value exists in an array. ArrayContains, ArrayFind, ArrayContainsNoCase and ArrayFindNoCase have the CORBA removal notice. Is there a built-in function that works for CF 2021 that does a similar thing?

What is the best method for displaying 360-degree images on a ColdFusion website?I'm developing 360 images with hot spots where the user can click on part of the image and have data popup in a new window displaying properties / drawing links.Can CF handle this directly or do I need a Java / Jquery or another third-party app to complete this project?

The 2016 and 2018 releases of ColdFusion are available as Docker images. Get started today. Charlie Arehart (he needs no introduction!) presented Docker for ColdFusion in CFSummit 2019. Check out his presentation and get on the Docker bandwagon in a matter of minutes. Whether you're a developer, an admin, or any stakeholder in your engineering team, there's value in understanding containers.  Get started with containers today. Thank Charlie and I later! Charlie's presentation in CFSummit 2019.

A funny thing happend last night. A loop over the hours hit 2:00 and failed a createDateTime. So I added guard programming to test validity using isDate(), to skip the items in spring forward DST are not there (2:00 hour). It still failed. Apparently isDate is build on top of createdateTime, but instead of capturing it internally and returning false as it should, it throws an exception. This does not seem like the correct behavior for isDate().Sample code:  <cfset response = isDate("3/13/2022 02:00:00")>  Date value passed to date function createDateTime is unspecified or invalid.coldfusion.util.DateUtils$InvalidDateException: Date value passed to date function createDateTime is unspecified or invalid.at coldfusion.util.DateUtils.createDateTime(DateUtils.java:1503)at coldfusion.runtime.CFDateTimeParser.toDateTime(CFDateTimeParser.java:592)at coldfusion.runtime.CFDateTimeParser.parseTime(CFDateTimeParser.java:356)at coldfusion.runtime.CFDateTimeParser.parseTime

Hello,I'd like to pull specific data off a page using cfhttp if it's possible. I start by getting the entire page.<cfhttp url="https://somesite.com/stream/" result="test"> <cfdump var="#test#">In a perfect world, I'd like to extract just the first occurrence of the title and artist from the results into two variables.<li><span class="song-time">1:49 PM</span> <span class="song-title">Wanted Dead Or Alive</span>—<span class="song-artist">Bon Jovi</span></li>Is there a way to capture everything between the two span classes into two variables?

We are using ColdFusion 2018, update 13. Our setup is that we are an internal shop with a production environment, test environment and the each developer has a local development environment on our PC's.  We have a situation where a colleague is using a CFDocument tag which formats and generates the pdf great on a few of the development environments, but does not on all.

We've all built forms that use common reference data like country codes/names, states, etc.  Historically I've always stored this type of information in a database that I would query as needed.  However, some types of reference data may change once in awhile (e.g. zip/postal codes) and maintaining that data across apps can be a bit cumbersome. Now that I've started thinking about apps from a modular HMVC approach (Coldbox fanboy here), I played with the idea of moving reference data into an external module that could be more easily updated and shared, both between apps and with the CF community (e.g. Forgebox).To play around with this concept further, I created a generic module called "DataLib" that would store US States. The first thing I did was eliminate the database dependency, and instead, I stored all of the reference data as a .json file residing in the module.  I then created a component that, when instantiated, would read the reference data and deseria

We got a request in today to update java to 11.0.14 (latest). This is our only 2021 server, but it's been up for a bit and unfortunately was installed prior to the version that defaulted to java 11.0.11. We have no issue moving to any version from 11.0.2 up through 11.0.10. Any version after that won't start the service. The only output for an error is:Element JDKPATH is undefined in FORM.

Hello community,on our new server with CF2021 (Upd. 3), there are regular errors appearing in the exception.log with the following content:"Error","scheduler-2","03/01/22","10:17:21","","The cause of this output exception was that: coldfusion.tagext.sql.QueryParamTag$InvalidDataException: Invalid data value VERTEILER2_PROD_16409_c752c3705ca7899c-AF13A205-D150-F002-4AE23F50F4561FE2 exceeds maxlength setting 40..

I have allowconcurrent set to FALSE for my CFLOGIN, and it works the way the documentation suggests: if someone starts a new session from a different browser or computer using the same credentials, the original session's Auth User is set to null (GetAuthUser()  EQ ""); it's easy for me to detect this and clear the old user's information. But this is the opposite of what I need. I want to trust the original session, and prevent any other user from logging in with those credentials while the first session is open. I can't figure out how to do that. Is there any way to detect in advance that the session for a particular credential already exists, and log out the NEW session instead of the OLD session? Or, rather, prevent the New session from being logged in at all? <cflogout session="others"> seems again to be weighted toward the new session always being the valid one, and that's not what I need. Thanks for your advice!

We have applied patch 13 to our ColdFusion 2018 Sunapsis server. The two files below are still on the server and are in use by ColdFusion. Regarding the information below, should we now have the security issue resolved? Thanks, Lewis I got more information about this.  I had wrong information before.  According to our lead developer, Tim, you will not be able to completely delete those files.  sunapsis does not use those .jar files but ColdFusion *does* so they should not be deleted.Per Tim:Adobe is moving off of Log4J 1.2 for whatever the next update is.Coldfusion has 2 different versions of Log4J.  It has Log4J 1.2.x and Log4J 2.x.  2.x was upgraded to 2.17 in Update 13.   1.2.x was left alone but is still used.You *could* unzip the .jar files and remove the specific class files and re-zip them, but you cannot delete the entire file.Adobe on Log4J 1.2.x vulnerability:           &n
