Question

CFDOCUMENT PDF CFMX7.0.2 HANGS

I am running CodFusion MX 7,0,2,142559 Standard Edition on Windows 2003 on the server.
I am trying to run a cfm-page with a CFDOCUMENT (PDF-format) tag.
Nothing happens it just hangs, I don't even get a timeout error. Nothing is registered in the cfm-logs says.
If I do this a couple of times the ColdFusion server get very slow.

I have Adobe acrobate reader on my client.

Have anyone had this problem? Any solutions? Could it be a security problem (firewalls)?

regards Annika

    The problem seems to be with the passing of variables to the cfm page containing cfdocument tag. Try directly running the page. This issue may not occur with Mozilla. If this is the problem, then try passing variables using the get method instead of post.

    Thanks for the help but I am not passing any variables at all.
    I get the same problem running the file test.cfm
    including the following code:
    <cfdocument format="PDF">
    <p>This is a document rendered by the
    cfdocument tag.</p>
    </cfdocument>
    I have managed to get it to work one time after waiting 15 minutes.
    Maybe it is just very slow :-)

    The same thing happens to me, but only with a PDF file that has 4 or more pages. Did you ever find a solution?
