We are seeing more and more requests for reporting on static code analysis with regards to security specifically.  Since currently are running CF 2016 Standard Edition and the only way to utilize CF Builder's Security Analyzer feature is to have CF 2016 Enterprise (or a trial version of it which obviously expires).  Very frustrating due to the importance of this feature and also the lack of other tools in the marketplace to do this for CF code bases.Any chance we will see this in CF 2018 Standard Edition?

We are running Coldfusion 2016.  Code has a webservices call.  We are getting following error.  Code will work for a time, but appears to start failing under heavier load.  Once it starts failing it doesn't recover.  We have been redefining the webservice each time as a temporary workaround.  Once errors start, we no longer see activity on destination webserver, which implies issue is in Coldfusion, and not in destination.org.apache.axis2.AxisFault: The input stream for an incoming message is null.at org.apache.axis2.transport.TransportUtils.createSOAPMessage(TransportUtils.java:93)at org.apache.axis2.transport.TransportUtils.createSOAPMessage(TransportUtils.java:68)at org.apache.axis2.description.OutInAxisOperationClient.handleResponse(OutInAxisOperation.java:354)at org.apache.axis2.description.OutInAxisOperationClient.send(OutInAxisOperation.java:421)at org.apache.axis2.description.OutInAxisOperationClient.executeImpl(OutInAxisOperation.java:229)at org.a

I have two dropdown lists whose contents are extracted from a database.But I would like that when I select a value in the first, the content of the second adjusts because according to the choice in the first list, I will not have the same elements in the second.illustration: display the department of a selected region. So I have a database with two tables, a table for the regions, a second for the departments. By selecting a region in the first list, I will display the second list corresponding to the departments of the selected region.Tank you

Does anyone recommend any cold fusion development companies, preferably in the Washington, DC area ? One that has experience with content management systems?

Let's say you have a component with a private property (a dependency) which will be injected into the component when it is instantiated.  Now, when you're working inside the component, is it considered best-practice to have getters and setters for private properties even when they will never be exposed outside of the component?  I've seen some examples online in other languages (e.g. C#) where dependencies are injected and then referenced without relying on getters/setters.  I haven't really been able to find a consensus on the optimal way to proceed when it comes to private properties.Here's an example of a simple component that has a dependency (dependencyExample) which exists as a private property. In this first example, I've used getters and setters which set the property when the component is instantiated (setDependencyExample()).  Then, when a method (doSomething()) needs to utilize the property, the getter (getDependencyExample()) gets triggered in

Does ColdFusion 2016 support JAVA 9 or 10?  I assume no to 10 but had to ask!Thanks!

We are in the process of investigating an Oracle insert delay.  The page in question does two inserts into two separate tables.  The first insert completes immediately but the second query can take up to 3 minutes to get written to the db.Does CF receive any acknowledgement from oracle that an insert command was received or completed from Oracle?  It seems obvious that CF will continue to process code after the second insert which means that CF doesn't wait for the insert to be completed. Is it possible that CF is holding  the second insert command in a buffer due to server load or some other circumstances?

Hi,Upgrading to 64 bit ColdFusion 2016 and 64 bit 2016 servers.The current application (on 32 bit Cold Fusion 11, 2008 servers) allows the user to get a report and then download the report into Excel.When executing the report on 2016 and then requesting the report be downloaded into EXCEL, a login screen appears (does not appear in 32 bit version).Is there something in Cold Fusion 2016 administrator or on the server to not have the login screen appear?Thanks,Mike

Have a Windows 2016 server with IIS 10 running ColdFusion 11. Certain websites (with https://) won't load the default home page on iPhone and iPad only. The default home pages load great on all browsers on Windows 10, and even on a Mac in Safari and Chrome, but won't load on iPhone and iPad in either Safari or Chrome -- they just time out. If I put the name of the default page in the URL, it will load just fine on these IOS mobile devices, but if I just use the site's domain name, it will NOT load. IOS versions are up-to-date. If we set the default page to an html page it WILL load; if we set it to a cfm page it WILL NOT load.So the FAILING situation is in loading default cfm page on iPhone or iPad.I have come up with a workaround for this problem.I created an index.html file containing:<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL='https://domainname.com/index.cfm'" />and made index.html the default page for the website.I don't like it, but it seems to get things working on the iPad

I am not sure cfdocument can convert powerpoint.pptx to pdf.  I would like to know what API call that I can use to convert office product to pdf file.Thanks

Hi,I have a Cold Fusion 2016 at update 3 and I am trying to restrict access to the internal components (adminapi) and the administrator to the server itself so that no one can access it without logging onto the server.  I added the IP address of the server and local host.  It seems to have saved it but it still allows outside access.  The administrator is hosted on the local tomcat server at port 8500.My security team is insisting to lock this down but this feature isn't working.  Do I need to apply an update to fix a bug or do I need to restart cold fusion?

I have a page with a 40 question form and at the end of it, there is a submit button.Once the Submit button is selected the 40 form fields data gets inserted into to my DB and the user gets cf-located to another page.It works great. I've done this a million times.But now I need to add another button or image to the page that reads (Email Me Help) that when clicked willNOT REFRESH THE PAGE, as the user may still be entering into the formThat will pass 2 hidden values to a email.cfm page -  that email.cfm page will then send a cfmail to our support and they will reach out to the user.  Also, the button or image needs to change to alert the user that their "Email Me Help" request was sent.This is so when a user is filling out the form if they need help. They can click "Email me help" and we can respond while they still have the form open.I cant get the form to process without refreshing the page.I've tried iframe, but can't get my hidden values into the iframe page and I have tr

Hi,My website still uses coldfusion 8 so I hope I can get some help despite it being old.kI'd like to add facebook buttons to each of my blogs automatically.  I'm looking at the facebook for developers information and it says to fill in the form to create this code:<html><head>  <title>Your Website Title</title>   <!-- You can use open graph tags to customize link previews.  Learn more: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/webmasters -->  <meta property="og:url"   content="https://www.your-domain.com/your-page.html" />  <meta property="og:type"   content="website" />  <meta property="og:title"   content="Your Website Title" />  <meta property="og:description"   content="Your description" />  <meta property="og:image"   content="https://www.your-domain.com/path/image.jpg" /></head><body>  <!-- Load Fac

Hi Team,I am relatively new to ColdFusion and need help with Verity and Solr.I am performing a migration of customer website hosted on ColdFusionMX7 to ColdFusion11.

Can anyone help with completing a custom validation to compare a string that is all uppercase, alphanumeric, and will compare several strings that should be considered "not a valid product number?"  The three strings would start with letters as follows: IP000000, IF000000, and RL000000 (the fail statements should be specific and start with IP, IF, and RL).I'm still new to editing custom validations, and can take any help!  Thank you

Anything on the roadmap for CF 2018 pertaining to making CFGRID responsive friendly?

In the ColdFusion 2018 Public Beta with Update 1 applied, using Java 10.0.1 (rather than the default Java 9.0.4), when calling QueryExecute() and passing a struct of query params, if I use cfsqltype="CF_SQL_CHAR", maxlength=64 (note there is no double quotes around the 64) it throws an error. But if I instead use cfsqltype="CF_SQL_CHAR", maxlength="64" (note the 64 in double quotes) it works correctly.Please investigate.

We use the cfchart tag which uses the Zing Chart engine. Zing Chart itself is responsive. However, ColdFusion 2016 had not implemented that version of Zing Charts. I was wondering if CF 2018 will implement the latest Zing Chart engine with responsive charts?Thanks in advance,Justin

I think there is a logging bug that occurs when using ColdFusion 11 on IIS 10.The IIS log shows cs-uri-stem as /jakarta/isapi_redirect.dll and so the actual .cfm file path is not logged.I am testing 32-bit ColdFusion 11 (hotfix 10), on both Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016. I think I also got the same result with 64-bit ColdFusion.Any ideas? Thanks.Note, I haven't tested generic Tomcat, but I see that similar behavior has occurred in the past when using Tomcat with IIS 7, with or without "Advanced Logging" (which I have not installed).
