ColdFusion

Hello, all, I've got a weird situation that's got me scratching my head. I've got a form page, which includes an older version of jQuery (1.11.2) at the top of the page.  Near the bottom of this page I am CFINCLUDING a .js file.  Works great. Tried updating to jQuery 3.5.1, and suddenly this included .js file breaks, stating that "'$' is undefined on line 11."  But $ is being used on at least seven lines prior to line 11. $('#thisForm').css({..}); /* THESE lines don't break */ $('#thisForm').attr(...); ... function ums(val){ switch(val){ case 'a': case 'b': case 'c': $('#thisForm').css({...}); /* THIS is the line that breaks */ break; default: break; } ums($('#thisSelect').val()); /* Triggered by this line */ Totally stumped on this one.  Ideas? V/r, ^ _ ^

Hi all. I'm a new employee at a company whose developers installed CF2018 awhile ago, and I'm trying to install my development CF2018 to match theirs. Unfortunately, they don't remember whether they installed using the Development Profile, the Production Profile, or the Production Profile + Secure Profile. Since I'm seeing notes on the Web that this option cannot be changed once installation is complete, I want to determine what they originally selected. Is there a setting in their cf administrators (or elsewhere) that they could check to find out?  

Hi all, My organization is in the process of changing authentication process.  Rather than authenticating using data in the "Subject" attribute in the certificate (which I can parse out from cgi.CERT_SUBJECT), they want to authenticate using the "Subject Alternative Name" attribute extension of the certificate.  However there is no cgi variable (that I am aware of) that I can get the data from that attribute. I've been researching this for weeks, but am stuck.  Anyone have any ideas? I apologize if my terminoligy is used incorrectly above...I'm a pretty good programmer, but SSL/Certs is not my strength. Thank much in advance!

In previous versions of CF, someone had created an add-on that allows you to use the UI to view and manage certificates installed on your server(s).  That version doesn't seem to work on CF2018. Does anyone know of an add-on that creates a UI to manage the certs?

Hello, all, I know that there is a way to get, sometimes, the hostname of the client system connecting to an app/site.  <cfset inet = createObject("java","java.inet.InetAddress") /> <cfset session.remote_host= inet.getByName(cgi.remote_addr).getHostName() />  However, if you are in an air-gapped development network that does not have internet access, is there a way to do the same? V/r, ^ _ ^

Hi Team,   Can you please provide some guidance as to what we could look for or do in order to resolve the following issues? We are currently using ColdFusion 2016.           We are seeing issues where the application and exception log files are not getting updated when errors occur on the applications.         We also see that the mailsent log files are not getting updated when emails are sent from the application. Thanks Hemanth 

My ColdFusion 2018 is installed successfully.  I can access its Admin page with no problem.  My Apache 2.4 is also running ok to access html files.  My OS is CentOS 7.6.   I used the following command to installed the external Apache connector: /opt/coldfusion2018/cfusion/runtime/bin/wsconfig \-ws apache -bin /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -script /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -dir  \/usr/local/apache2/conf -v The command seems completed successful.  The following two entries are put into my httpd.conf file. Include "/usr/local/apache2/conf/mod_jk.conf"Include "/opt/coldfusion2018/config/wsconfig/1/mod_jk_vhost.conf" I also restarted Apache and ColdFusion servers. Then the access for any html files are still OK.  However, if I test any .cfm file, I got the following error message: 503 Service UnavailableThe server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please

I have Windows server 2016IIS 10Coldfusion 2018 I created sample cfm app, and tried to configure this app in IISWhen I run the app - it gives me below error? Seems handler mapping needs to be added in IIS for cfm/cfc etc?HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map.

We are trying to use the cfdocument tag on coldfusion 2016 and getting errors on creating the pdf.I have found that the issue only appears on the coldfusion servers where we have defined multiple instances. On the default cfusion instance everything works perfectly.  When running from additional instances it does not.  In the coldfusion administrtor the Font Managment does not show any fonts on the additional instances.  On the cfusion instance I can see all the Adobe installed fonts that were part of the initial install.On startup of the additional instances I am getting the error May 27, 2020 21:45:47 PM Error [Thread-65] - com.lowagie.text.FontFactory.getFontFaces()Ljava/util/Map;May 27, 2020 21:45:47 PM Error [Thread-65] - com.lowagie.text.FontFactory.getFontFaces()Ljava/util/Map; This is also the same error that appears if I try to define my own font directory.How can I get the fonts to appear on the Font Management in the additional instances. W

We've had this issue for a while apparently (now running v11u18) where emails won't get sent but they are also not always logged by CF. We have been using Java 1.8.0_144 since it came out and use a third-party SMTP server (our domain host). Pretty much all errors that do get logged simply say this in the log:"Error","scheduler-2","04/09/19","14:08:40",,"com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPSendFailedException: 250 Requested mail action okay, completed: id=0MFJUg-1h8QzQ2Nj2-00ERMH ;   nested exception is: com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPAddressFailedException: 550-Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable 550 invalid DNS MX or A/AAAA resource record "Even though the actual error for that message according to what is returned via Outlook is:503 Bad sequence of commandsOne of our client's is BCC'd on every email from their site, but they are not getting messages sent to one of their customer's that does have an invalid email.

I need to create a drop down menu and then have the next drop down change its content based on the selection in the previous menuWould anybody have any code that I could play around with that would help me achieve this?Thanks!!Mark

I have installed ColdFusion 10 on a server running Windows Server 2016.  I then installed the Mandatory Update.  I am getting the following server error 404 - File or directory not found when I try to access the following URL https://saweb1.matrix.txstate.edu/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm.  Searching the Adobe website I found an article that mentions installing an updated wsconfig.jar to correct the problem.  I have been unable to locate a copy of the wsconfig.jar to download.  Will an updated copy of the wsconfig.jar file resolve my error or do I need to install something else?

I have a partner that is going to pass a transactionid to me in the URL when a user clicks on an ad on their site.Like thiswww.mycompany.com/transactionid=12345abc8964 I need to postback variables to their site when a user converts.I have that part coded already using CFHTTP.My question what is the best way to detect that a user has entered my site with a transactionid and then be able to know that is the same user when they convert.Is it something like this?1. Detect transactionid when user enter website in application.cfc2. If  a transactionid  is detected - set a session variable like session.transactionid = yes or session.transactionid=12345abc89643. If user converts - check for the existence of transactionid session variable.4. if  transactionid session variable exists - postback info the partner siteIt almost seems too easy. So I'd thought I'd check with the ColdFusion geniuses.

Hello, all, I've got a RegEx edit on email addresses that is acting weird.  I could use a few more pairs of eyes on this. Okay, so for those not aware, Gmail has a feature whereby one can add arbitrary characters to an email address, I assume primarily for the purpose of tracking who is making your email address available to marketers.  For example, let's say someone registered "myname@gmail.com", and is filling out a form online for.. uh.. let's say a free meal at a local restaurant.  Said user can enter "myname+restaurantname@gmail.com" and if that restaurant ever makes this user contact information available to marketers, then anyone sending an email to "myname+restaurantname@gmail.com"  will alert the user to who gave out that information. I am using a RegEx replace to filter out that "+whatever" in an email address, and for the most part it works great.  However.. there is an odd quirk that I can't track. It will filter out that +whatev

On my HTTP request, I kept getting this error.handling exception: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: java.security.cert.CertPathBuilderException: Could not build a validated path.Sep 16, 2016 10:26:14 AM Error [ajp-bio-8013-exec-2] - ERROR: failed to read from https://myapps.example.com/units.json.

However, it didn't resolve my issue even though I verified that the certificate is already exist in my cacerts file.

I'm working towards using Redis to store ColdFusion sessions in an ElastiCache instance. ElastiCache has encryption options:Encryption at Rest (This works easily.  It is transparent to Redis Connections)Encryption in TransitRedis Auth Ideally both of the last two options should be enabled. Redis Auth can only be enabled when Encryption in Transit is enabled. When Encryption in Transit is enabled, connection timouts occur while verifying the Redis connections. Redis Connection Verification Failed. java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed outFor this connection, I'm using a plain hostname.  I am not modifying the address to create different url in any way.   I've seen some articles about the redis url scheme and using redis:// for plain text connectionsrediss:// for SSL connections.However, when either of these are configured in the coldfusion administrator page, the connection verification throws an error.Redis Connection Verification

For security reasons, I am uploading photos to OUTSIDE the /inetpub/wwwroot/ area on my server. To c:\isolate\Then emailing the admin a copy of the photo for admin to approve photo. How do I get the photo display???Under normal circumstances, I simply do a:<img src="http://www.domain.com/images/photo_name.jpg">But what when it's outside the web root?I have tried what I thought was the obvious<img src="c:\isolate\photo.jpg">I do not get an "error" (a "symbol" top left of the image) but I get a blank. What am I missing?Not really a CF issue, more an HTML one?   

So I can create a CFForm and add 1 record to the database, working good.I am trying to add multiple records, but getting all sorts of issue, seached the internet but coming up empty.I found a javascript that lets me add another row to the form/table, works great in adding the form, however when I try to add the data I am either getting "Variable not defined" or itf I have 2 rows on the form then both datafields gets added to the same cell in the db twice.<FORM><cfform action="add.cfm" method="post"><table id="dataTable"><th><td></td><td>Activity</td></th><tr><td><INPUT type="checkbox" name="chk"/></td><td><cfinput type="text" name="activity" id="activity"></td></tr></table><INPUT type="button" value="Add Row" onclick="addRow('dataTable')" /><INPUT type="button" value="Delete Row" onclick="deleteRow('dataTable')" /><!--- submit button ---><cfinput type="Reset"

I've had essentially the same site-wide missing template and error handler setup since CFMX. However, with CF2018, something isn't right.  I'm using Windows Server 2018, Apache 2.4, and CF2018 (w/update9). In past setups, I've had entries like this for CF site-wide missing template and error handlers:/404error.cfm and /500error.cfm However, the CF administrator says this (even though these files are in the root folder of my site):The file specified as the site wide error handler does not exist. The default error handler will be used until a replacement is created.The file specified as the site wide missing template handler does not exist. The default missing template handler will be used until a replacement is created. Even so, if I request an non-existent cfm page, the expected error page is displayed.  Apache has error settings in httpd.conf for non-cfm pages like this: ErrorDocument 500 /500error.htmlErrorDocument 404 /404error.html However, b

Hi, I have Use J2EE session variables enabled on my server and now want to rotate the corresponding jessionid on login. I used to rotate the inbuilt coldfusion session variables using sessionRotate but now have no need so replaced this in my code with jeeSessionRotate (https://www.petefreitag.com/item/829.cfm).  I have also added the relevant code in onSessionStart but I keep getting an error a few lines after calling jeeSessionRotate. The error happens when I try and set some session variable and I get an "set attribute... session has already been invalidated" error because its trying to use the previous session. I assume the code in onSessionStart would cater for this. Am I missing something along the line here? I'm calling jeeSessionRotate on successful login and later on in that file i'm setting some variables. Seems from the post that all required was to create the new function and add the code to onSessionStart and it should work. Anyo
