Using the CF API Manager Portal, I've added a new API by importing a cfc - using the "Create REST API From SOAP" tool.I would like to remove it now, but cannot see any button in the Edit screen or elsewhere to do so.How do I delete an API from the catalog?Could it be a permissions issue? I see that this UI does not provide the "Update" link mentioned elsewhere.Thanks,Al

Hello,We are trying to setup a ODBC connection to an Iseries and we keep getting an error message when testing the connection. I have contacted coldfusion support and them had me change the port number but we still get that same error. We have contacted IBM and they have had us run trace routes to see if we could find the holdup but they dont even see the connection reach the DB. Has anyone else experienced this issue or know of a solution?

We just had a new client start using our site and when they upload their TIFF files to us and my system tries to convert them to a PDF I receive this error:"Unsupported combination of photometric interpretation, samples per pixel, and bit depth. "Yet when we have our customer service team go in and manually convert and merge them using Acrobat Pro it does so with no problems. Has anyone seen this or have any idea's on how to possibly fix it before pushing back against our client to change their files?Thanks,Colin

Hello,I was given access to a fresh install of CF 2016 Enterprise on windows.I went to checkout the api manager and I do not see it anywhere in CFadmin.I did find the one adobe install page which has screenshots of a separate installer but cannot find the installer anywhere.I also found the apimanager addon service installer but that doesn't look like it is the right file to get started.What am I missing?Thanks!RandyH

Hi everyone, I have single page app and I'm wondering what would be better way to logout user from the system. There is two ways that I have explored one is JQuery/Ajax that will call the function and wait to receive the response. Then base on response I will either redirect user to Login page or show an error to the user if exist. Second example is JQuery/Ajax will call the function then I will use cflocation to redirect user to the login page. However both methods have some wired errors for example first example few times throw JavaScript error for some reason. I couldn't find anything that caused that. Second example does not redirect user to the login page. Instead sits on the page where user was before logout process that is wrong. User always should end up on the login page after logout process is completed.Example 1:JS code:function LogOut() {    window.onbeforeunload = null;    $.ajax({        type: 'POST', &

Please refer to the code below, and see the output difference between 2016 vs. 2010Below are the issues in 20161) When there is a missing value, it moves all the axis values to previous points... for example.. look at second chart series in the code2) The chart doesn't plot on the value items mentioned in the series, doesn't start from 1... instead defaults it to zero.<cfchart format="png"  chartheight="350" chartwidth="700">    <cfchartseries type="line" serieslabel="Cost per Clicks">       <cfchartdata item="1" value="15">       <cfchartdata item="2" value="50">       <cfchartdata item="3" value="47">       <cfchartdata item="4" value="32">       <cfchartdata item="5" value="65">    </cfchartseries>    <cfchartseries type="line" seriesla

We are running Coldfusion 2016, this issue was not present in Coldfusion 9 which we upgraded from.I am using a basic CFGRID on my page that is getting loaded from a query. I am using the tag based method to code my page.One item in the query is an HREF link that brings the user to another page with info specific to that row. The dataset being passed to the cfgrid can be large.My issue is when the CFGrid become longer than the page. The grid displays fine but when I scroll lower than the first row when the row, or link, is clicked the page just jumps to the top of the CFGRID. The selected row is highlighted, but the link isn't activated.There is nothing special to my cfgrid tag or my gridcolumn tags. My page is not calling any custom javascript files or anything. i just have the grid and some text above it<cfgrid name="grdSearchResults" format="html" query="qrySearchResults" >     <cfgridcolumn name="ID" header="Banner ID" width="100">   &n

I have been struggling with this issue for the majority of the day now, I am basically trying to figure out how to use a variable to specify a function name dynamically while using chaining in order to load and run a function from within a CFC.Some background:I designed a simple function which takes 2 arguments and has 1 hard-coded variable:<cfargument name="cfcname" required="yes"><cfargument name="args"><cfset local.dir = "cfc">if(isdefined("arguments.args")){     if(isstruct(arguments.args)){          REQUEST[cfcname] = new '#local.dir#.#cfcname#'(argumentcollection=arguments.args);     } else {          REQUEST[cfcname] = new '#local.dir#.#cfcname#'(arguments.args);     }} else {     REQUEST[cfcname] = new '#local.dir#.#cfcname#'();}return REQUEST[cfcname];I call the function "run" and then put it

Hello,I'm running ColdFusion 2016 on Windows Server 2012 R2 and am having problems getting CFM files to work through an IIS virtual directory that points to my Azure File storage account.I followed the instructions here: David So's Blog - IIS and Azure Files  , minus the Shared Configuration stuff because it doesn't apply to me, and can access test TXT files that are in the virtual directory that point to my Azure files storage account. The problem I'm having is with browsing CFM files. For some reason I get a 404 even though the file exists and IIS is able to show it via Content View.Here is the error I'm seeing in the exception log: "Error","ajp-nio-8016-exec-1","03/14/18","14:13:31","","File not found: /atest/heartbeat.cfm The specific sequence of files included or processed is: \\xxxxx.file.core.windows.net\jmsandbox\heartbeat.cfm'' "coldfusion.runtime.TemplateNotFoundException: File not found: /atest/heartbeat.cfmat coldfusion.filter.PathFilter.invoke(PathFilter.java:156)at c

We are working to cluster our CF2016 instance.  However, we have an application that uses application variables and there are times when specific ones need to be refreshed.  When calling the cluster to refresh them there is no way to guarantee you will get both boxes refreshed.  Any suggestions on a methodology or process to ensure both cluster members get refreshed without having to restart them individually?thank you

Hello, all,I've worked with mail() in cfscript, before, but I've always used it as such:newMail = new mail();newMail.setTo("user@domain.com");newMail.setFrom("anotheruser@anotherdomain.com");newMail.setType("html");I'm trying to use setAttributes(), but the Adobe docs don't mention anything about how the name/value pairs are formatted.Is it like newMail.setAttributes(to="user@domain.com", from="another@another.com", type="html"); ???Or do I need to use {} around the name and values?Please provide an example.V/r,^ _ ^

Hello,I have an issue. When using web sockets over https with firefox and IE i'll get a message saying that connection is insecure. However with chrome or safari the websocket is connected reguardless. I think it has to do with one protocol being ws and the other being wss. Is the wss websocket supported? Any work-arounds (aside from redirecting the user away from https) on the pages i want to use websockets. Thanks for all your help

I've been running cf8 on a windows webserver 2008 with IIS7.5 and have just installed cf11. The install completed successfully to the point of opening cfadmin and then failed. On looking in the web root directory as set in IIS, the old CFIDE folder had not been updated, so cf11 was attempting to use the cf8 version.I renamed the old cfide folder to cfide08, uninstalled cf11 and tried reinstalling it again - but still no cfide folder was created for cf11, and I couldn't open cfadmin. The cfide folder does get created in c:\ColdFusion11\cfusion\wwwroot\cfideHas anyone else experienced this, or know how to fix it?

We’re experiencing an important issue on our CF11 server: when we try to resize an image, it changes its appearance to a negative/posterized image (e.g. see attached images). We tried both with ImageResize/ImageScaleToFit functions and cfimage tag, and we also made several tests by changing the interpolation and the other options value.Further more, we have 4 different CF instances on the same server, with pretty similar configurations and with exactly the same Java version (1.8) and libraries, but we have this issue only on one of them and it start to appear few weeks after the previous reboot, so we need to restart again the instance to avoid the problem.Can you please provide a solution or suggest any other way to solve this issue?

Hi, i'm working on getting some email delivered and am being told i need to sign my emails with DKIM.  I have a DKIM key from my hosting provider, but am unsure how to do this in CFMAIL and I cannot find anything on the internet either (or this forum).   Can someone share an example of how I would do this?Thank you!Dave

Is it possible to get this to work? This works fine in CF8 but in 2016 it gives me the following error:Connection verification failed for data source: xxxxxxxxxxxxjava.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][SequeLink Server]The specified data source is not defined.The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][SequeLink Server]The specified data source is not defined.This is the process I am using:1. Create 64-bit ODBC data source (in Administrative tools).2. In CF Admin, add the datasource using ODBC Socket. The data source I created shows up in CF admin but gives the error above when trying to add it to the admin page.Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks.

I have system that I built and for this project I used Ajax with JQuery. On back end I use ColdFusion and session management to handle users session variables. There is two situations (actually three if we consider closing the browser) where users session will end. One situation is if they click Logoutthen I have function that will clear SESSION scope with all information in it but session is not ended. Also CFID and CFTOKEN are still the same. Here is example of Logout function:<cffunction name="LogOut" access="remote" output="yes" returnformat="JSON" hint="Used in session timeout handling"> <cfset fnResults = structNew()> <cfset dt = createODBCDateTime(now())>  <cfif structKeyExists(SESSION,"LoggedIn")> <cfset temp = structClear(SESSION)> <cfset fnResults.status = "200"> <cfelse> <cfset fnResults.status = "400"> <cfset fnResults.message = "Error!"> </cfif>  <cfreturn fnResults> </cffunction>Second scena

I am trying to use the <CFHTMLTOPDF> tag to generate PDF output but radio groups that have no option selected is appearing in the PDF output with the first option selected.  If I wrap the same HTML around the <CFDOCUMENT format="PDF"> tag, the radio group in the PDF output is rendered correctly (no radio buttons are selected in the group).Is this a bug with the <CFHTMLTOPDF> tag?  Is there any workaround for this issue?Thanks for your help.

When preforming a query of query I am losing the sort order of the cached query.The column that the cached query is sorting by is not one I could use in the new query. Is there any way to keep the sorting the same through both queries?Thanks

I am using window 10, 64bit on a PC. I am also using Coldfusion 2016. I did a  Coldfusion query output that displays a history of reading input of water usage for an apartment from an electronic submeter. I am able to output the date of the meter reading and the gallons of water that was used. What I'm having difficulty with is creating two additional columns that dynamically calculate within the same query output the days lapse between each meter reading and the difference in the water used since the last read. Any insights. I've listed my code.  <!---  query of submeter reading. ---> <cfquery name="list_water_usage" datasource="submeter">select * from readsubmeter where reasubid = '#choose_submeterID.subid#' Order by reasubreaddate DESC</cfquery>

Hi,Saw an old issue from 2012 (https://forums.adobe.com/message/4560283#4560283) answered in the forums for this same error happening in Coldfusion 10 (it was a bug that was fixed in an update).However, I am running Coldfusion 2016 Standard and I cannot find any answers about this issue for this version.If it matters, I am calling cfschedule via script as follows:cfschedule( action="update", task="Task1", interval="60", mode="application", starttime=timeFormat(dateAdd("s", 30, now()), "HH:mm:ss"), URL="<MY URL>", eventHandler="com.SearchTaskHandler" );Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for the vague title, but ColdFusion is not something I understand well. I'm trying to replicate a Coldfusion report in ASP.net, but I'm at a lose of where the data is coming from. I've conferred with a few developers here and we believe its the below line (in bold). Thing is....I have no idea what 'cf_act_get_remaincourses' is or comes from. I've done a search through the entire site and find no other references to it. I don't see anything in the database with a similar name.So, what is this object? (Its not a cf try, or cf it....)Where can it possibly be pulling data from.<cftry>            <cf_act_get_remaincourses userid=#GetGroupStudents.userid# datacheck=#ODBC_DataSource#>            <cfset Count = result>            <td align="center">#val(Count)#</td>      

So I have an image loader that before it uploads the file to Amazon S3 it optimises the image by using this code:<cfset ImageScaleToFit(myImage,1260,"")><cfset imageWrite(myimage,"newImagelocation", 0.9)>The odd thing is that if I upload an image that is already 1260 wide and 24k in size, then optimise it using the above code, the image becomes 34k in size.Why would optimizing an image make it bigger?

I followed the migration guide to upgrade an existing CF 10 server to CF 2016 - on Windows 2012 R2.  The upgrade seemed to go fine and I am able to get to the new CF admin to confirm migrated settings through the built in webserver.  When I try to call .cfm files directly I get 500 errors.  It is similar behavior to when the mapping is missing, but I have confirmed they are there.  I have done this on a few servers and 2 of them upgraded fine and I can call .cfm files, 2 others do not work properly.Even when browsing to the CF admin page, if there is no cfm file in the URL it comes up, then after logging in, it tried to go to 'enter.cfm' and I get a 500 error.Has anyone else had this issue after upgrading?

Hey - I recently upgraded our ColdFusion10 to ColdFusion 2016 Upgrade 3. After the initial upgrade, I opened CF Admin as local host in my browser and completed the migration settings as their instructions stated in the coldfusion-2016-lockdown-guide. After that was complete, I logged in and Server Upgrade stated I needed to upgrade to version 4. Followed the instructions, and rebooted the server to be certain the services would start, but 1 of the three services do not start. - ColdFusion 2016 Application Server service. The error is below:I typically have the service running as a service account (which has full permissions to my ColdFusion 2016 server on my E:\) I thought that my be my original issue, but when I switched it back to running as the Local System, it still will not start. Event Viewer isn't much help stating "The ColdFusion 2016 Application Server service could not be started.  Check the server "cfusion" log files for more information." Not really sure what log files
