GreetingsI successfully imported 2500+ records (individuals) from the Ancestry.com site in gedcom format to SQL server using "GEDMagic".Unfortunately, the individual/spouse connection is not imported.However, they were imported into SQL Server in PK pairs- John Smith is PK ID 200 & his spouse, Mary is PK ID 201.Each pair is one PK number + or -I am trying to avoid physically entering 2500 corresponding spouse ID's- I only have so much time left on earth.My question is- has anyone had experience dealing with importing GEDCOM db files to SQL, and/or at least advise a strategy to select the individual and his/her spouse easily with a query?I tried <cfquery name="get_ID" datasource="#Request.BaseDSN#">  SELECT ged_ID  FROM ged_main  </cfquery> <CFSET plusone =#get_ID.ged_ID# + 1>  <CFSET minusone =#get_ID.ged_ID# - 1> <cfquery name="find_spouse" datasource="#Request.BaseDSN#">SELECT *FROM ged_mainWHERE ged_ID = #plusone#OR ged_ID = #min

Hello, all,I just experienced an issue using example code in Adobe Support for cfmailparam.  I am using CF10.In the description there is sample code for attaching a file to an email.<cfmailparam name="anyname" contents="#variablename#">I followed this example and got an error message indicating that I was not using proper attributes.  As it turns out, the correct combination is:<cfmailparam file="anyname" contents="#variablename#">Just in case anyone at Adobe has the chance to correct it in the support section.V/r,^ _ ^

I just started using CFB 2016 and for the life of me can't figure out how to enable word wrap in the editor. I thought I'd found the setting, but wrapping still isn't working. TIA

Hello, all,If I have a form that uploads a file, and the action page for that upload just does a CFDUMP of the form scope, one of the things I've noticed is:form.uploadFile | {drive}:\ColdFusion\cfusion\runtime\work\Catalina\localhost\tmp\neotmp698498469158.tmpThis is the tmp directory where the web server uploads to for your CFFILE action="upload" to tell it where to be saved to.  Then, the .tmp file automatically deletes.I am trying to devise a way to use CFFILE action="readbinary" directly from the tmp folder, without using action="upload" to cut down on disk I/O.Is there a way to determine the tmp path and filename (other than CFDUMP) when the web server saves the file?  WITHOUT using action="upload".V/r,^ _ ^

Hello, all,I have worked extensively with the spreadsheet functionality in CF, and have to admit.. I love it.However, I am curious about one thing.  Does CF natively have a way to check a .xls(x) file for macros?Considering the environment that I work in, we do not allow macros in Excel spreadsheets on our network.  No exceptions.But the PTB (powers that be) here are considering setting up a web app that has a section that will allow authenticated users to upload .xlsx files.  So, I am trying to find a way in which to scan the file for macros before processing, and deny the file if it contains any macros.Is anyone aware of a way to do this?V/r,^ _ ^

After applying ColdFusion patch update 13 my client is saying that he is facing issues with REST API services. REST API function that exists on production servers is not reachable by other servers. It was like few servers was able to reach and few were failing. What might be the cause for the issue and how to solve it.These production servers make server to server calls, few were able to call and few were failing Is it really because of patch update 13 in ColdFusion 11.

CF Builder 3 will not accept my license key. The "OK" button does not become enabled after I input the key, so I cannot upgrade my installation from the (now expired) trial mode. The license keys I have tried are owned by my company and are legit. Has anyone experienced this, how can it be resolved?

Hello, all,Our DBA just approached me and said that it appears as though CF11 is not cooperating with reverse DNS lookups.  She says that it's not Apache, and there are no errors appearing in any logs or emails - it just isn't doing any reverse DNS lookups; as if the code just isn't executed when it gets to that point.Has anyone, here, heard of or experienced this kind of issue with CF11?  I am at a total loss.V/r,^_^

Hi, I just installed update 12 for ColdFusion 11 on one of our instances. It appears that both coldfusion-error.log and coldfusion-out.log file locations have changed, they are now located with other ColdFusion logs. They used to be located in the <cf_root>\Instance\log folder, now they are located in the log directory we set up in CF Admin, under Debugging & Logging > Logging Settings. This is great, but I did not find any information about this change in the Update change log located on: ColdFusion 11 Update 12 . Has anyone else noticed this difference?

I have an API get request that returns a couple hundred rows with a dozen or so columns of data (one of which contains a paragraph of text). It's not a huge amount of data, but it's not tiny either. This data isn't updated frequently, so I set up caching in the API and set it to 86,400 seconds (1 day).When I run the API from the RESTClient extension in my Firefox browser the first time it takes about 5 seconds to return back the data set. With caching set, I assumed it would come back much quicker on subsequent tries, but there appears to be no difference. I tried it 6 or 7 times after setting caching and it didn't change.Then, I set the query to cache every 6 hours to see if that would make a difference. In theory, at least as far as I can tell, it shouldn't, because if the API manager is caching the response it shouldn't be getting back to the query anyhow, but this time it made a huge difference. Now the results come back almost instantaneously.Given these observations, it seems to

I am looking for ways to better secure our APIs through API Manager. Originally, I was looking for a way to implement JWT, but I don't see anything in the API manager for that (If you know of something I am missing, please let me know). My question, though, involves the Admin screen "Security Configuration". I can't find any documentation on this screen, and there is an option for "encryption seed", but I don't know what that does or how to set it up (or if it will help my in securing my APIs). If someone has information or documentation on any of these things, please let me know.

Recently my company announced that we had to move to a new software vendor for ldap.  We're in the testing phase and I my cfldap is returning an error.  Can anyone help me figure out the bind error?  I'm at a loss.  The exact same settings were working with our other system and I have verified that my port is correct.Detail One or more of the required attributes may be missing or incorrect or you do not have permissions to execute this operation on the server.

I'm trying to create a load balanced cluster with failover in CF2016 between two Windows 2016 servers. I had both servers running independent instances of ColdFusion and then followed the instructions found here Adobe ColdFusion 10 * Enabling clustering for load balancing and failover to create the cluster. Now the instance on the host server is no longer working and I can't access the administrator on the server either. The first instance I created on the remote server does still work and is still accessible. So to summarize I basically have this:Server 1 - hostCF2016 developer editionWindows Server 2016IISCluster with two instances - one hosted on this machine the other hosted on server 2Administrator is no longer accessible and instance no longer worksServer 2 - remoteCF2016 developer editionWindows Server 2016IISTwo instances - one instance is part of the cluster on server 1Instance 2 is not accessible in anyway - I didn't expect it to be since I would need to access it through the

I was recently contacted by Sencha's attorney stating that we owe them a licence fee for use of ExtJS 4.1.  My understanding is that it is included in the Adobe ColdFusion 2016 licencing since it is built into the software ie: cflayout, cfgrid etc..  Can you provide the license agreement information regarding ExtJs 4.1 as it pertains to my Adobe ColdFusion 2016 software?

Hi,Looking at installing ColdFusion2016.The current Cold Fusion 11 is that the web server and application is on one server.The suggestion for the new environment would be to have a web server with IIS on one server and an application server, containing ColdFusion,.Is there any documentation for setting up the new environment?Thanks,Mike

All, I have an unusual issue with ColdFusion. I'm running ColdFusion 2016, IIS 8.5 on Windows 2012 R2. in a VMWare virtual machine. I've had to do several things to accommodate a new site on this server . We're also running the CommonSpot Content management system.The original site  "http://site-comspotAuth" runs fine ("site-comspotAuth" is the machine name with DNS being handled by Windows DNS servers inside our network). In order to add a new site to this server, I've had to change the site name to siteCSAuth and the new site is https://site2CSA.NSLOOKUP, PING and TRACERT all appear normal here's where things go weird: The original site site-comspotAuth works, CommonSpot comes up and users can author, however the second site site2CSA delivers html but not cfml, I've run the WSCONFIG tool and the handler mappings seem correct.  This also occurs if I change the name and IP of the existing site which will be siteCSAuth in the IIS bindings. This all ran smoothly on our developm

I have a table structure in HTML where I have to use rowspan and RTL(Right To Left) direction. But while converting this HTML to PDF rowspan is not working as expected. Assuming this is a bug in ColdFusion where an HTML with rowsapn and RTL direction is not working correctly.Note that this is working fine for LTR (Left To Right) direction (ex: English Characters). But I need to use RTL direction since Arabic characters need to be displayed in PDF.Sample Code : <cfdocument format="PDF" filename="C:\test.pdf" overwrite="true">  <!DOCTYPE html><html><head><style>  table, th, td {      border: 1px solid black;  }  table#mainTable {direction:rtl;}</style></head><body><cfoutput><table id="mainTable">  <tr>    <td>Tariff</td>    <td>Description</td>    <td>Quantity</td>    <td>U
