CF10 Sandbox Security prevents CFCOLLECTION create from working

Question

Hello, everyone,I've got CF10 installed on my dev system.  I've created several Solr collections.  I have turned on Sandbox Security, and added defined directory permissions for C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/collections and C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/jetty folders.  I have edited both paths so that NOTHING is disabled.If Sandbox is on and I remove a collection from within CFAdmin, when I try to use the CFCOLLECTION action="create" tag, I get java.io.filePermission "read" access denied messages.If I turn off Sandbox, the tag runs fine.What else do I need to do in order for CFCOLLECTION action="create" to work while Sandbox is on?V/r,^_^

@wolf, did your problem ever get resolved. I missed your reply here last week.

If it remains, I really think the problem is that you have misunderstood how the sandbox works. I had tried to help but perhaps I was not as clear. I said:

“And in your sandbox, are you defining this path as THE sandbox, or are you defining a sandbox for where you code lives (like the CFCOLLECTION) and then using the “files/dirs” tab to THEN add a pointer to this folder? Furthermore, are using using the /* at the end of the path (in that files/dirs tab) to get it to recurse through subdirectories?”

My point was: you do NOT want to define the sandbox where your collections live. You want to define it for where your code that USES the CF tags for accessing the collections where they live (and you would need to tell that sandbox to ALLOW access to the folders where the collection lives).

So you see, you have it backwards, it seems. Let us know if that’s helpful.

As a sanity check, when you had created a collection (before deleting it) was it appearing in the C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/collections which you are locking down with sandbox security? You can create them anywhere you want, but I do realize that if you create one in the Admin it offers a default starting location of that path (Assuming you’re not using multiple instances, in which case it points to the instance’s collections folder). Asimportant, when you DO create them with cfcollection, where are you putting them? You must provide the PATH. I’ll assume it’s going to that same location but I just want to be sure.

And in your sandbox, are you defining this path as THE sandbox, or are you defining a sandbox for where you code lives (like the CFCOLLECTION) and then using the “files/dirs” tab to THEN add a pointer to this folder? Furthermore, are using using the /* at the end of the path (in that files/dirs tab) to get it to recurse through subdirectories?

Hope that helps. Let us know.
