Questions

I have recently installed ColdFusion 2016 on Windows Server 2016. During the first install, I set a custom admin name (cf_admin) during the install process. I was not able to log into the Admin Portal once the installation finished (invalid username or password). I tried using the password reset batch file as well as uninstalling and re-installing. Every time has been the same result. On subsequent installs, I left the default "admin" name in.I installed on another server and left the "admin" name in on the first go and it seems to be working fine. Is there some file or setting that is left behind after uninstallation?

I'm having an issue delivering an image using content. I'm getting the following error when using cfcontent:  "... cannot be displayed because it contains errors".Here is a sample of the code: <cfcontent reset="true" file="C:\Storage\Sites\localhost\stars.jpg" deleteFile="false" type="image/jpeg" /><cfabort>Here's the odd thing ... If I access the coldfusion script directly; ie, http://localhost/test.cfm  it works just fine.But if i'm doing any type of url rewriting through IIIS web.config it doesn't work; ie, http://localhost/test   (which through url rewrite would map to test.cfm).  Any ideas anybody?

Hi,I understand that Visual FoxPro is deprecated. But is there a way to add VFP databasource as ODBC socket in CF9? We are moving from CF7 to CF9 and in CF7 we are able to create  ODBC socket for VFP data source without any issues. But in CF9 the VFP DNS is not listed under ODBC DSN list of ODBC socket.Server: Windows Server 2008 R2 64 bitColdfusion 9I have installed Visual FoxPro ODBC driver version 6 on  the server and have added the data source in system DSN. Please let me know if more info is needed.

I've just moved from CF8 up to ColdFusion 2016, which has the rather handy UPDATE button.I noticed that it does not appear to update the Java JDK, the install I used placed version 1.8.0_112  however if I look on Oracle I see there is an 8u_152 ( Java SE Development Kit 8 - Downloads  )The question I have (which it looks like the answer is obvious) is do I have to manually update the JDK still? If so I guess I'll install in the program files then change the host file in CF to point to the JRE inside the JDK.Second question, the last info I could find was that ColdFusion 2016 is not compatible with Java version 9, is that still the case or should I go for the latest and greatest version 9? Currently version 9.0. 1 ( Java SE Development Kit 9 - Downloads  )

Is there any code coverage tool  available for ColdFusion? Either OpenSource or Commerical

I have recently starting forcing Https on one of my Coldfusion Instances.Made the appropriate changes to the Axis2.xml file within the instance and was able to register a web service.This specific web service that is failing is being called from another CF instance that isn't forcing Https but it does have this configuration in the Axis2.xml    <transportReceiver name="https"                       class="coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFAxisServletListener">          <parameter name="port">80</parameter>    </transportReceiver>    <transportReceiver name="https"                       class="coldfusion.xml.rpc.CFAxisServletListener">     &n

Recently upgraded production servers to CF16u5, and now experiencing high memory usage leading to crash.Have 4 instances in cluster with sticky sessions and replication. They are running on Unix Solaris Sparc with Apache 2.4.29, mod JK 1.2.41.Upgraded from CF11u10 where they ran fine and used the cfsetting migration tool. Immediately after upgrading the instances would start up but would not serve pages to include the CFadmin page. Found that there was a file "port.properties" with a Shutdown_port value that was being consumed and would have to be recreated multiple times while starting in order for it to serve pages.Now that I have gotten them to actually work, monitoring them in FusionReactor they are showing high memory usage in heap. GC's are happening regularly but right around 2 and a half days the memory gets maxed  out and they start bouncing disconnected in FusionReactor. The CFadmin page will still serve but it is extremely slow and I am not getting any outofmemory error

We have a websocket setup on an internal network 192.16.1.x IP addresses.  The server is running CF 2016 Updated to the latest patch as of this post.  We have a controller/publisher that was being run from an iPad and listeners/subscriber computers.  A user clicks through the site on the iPad and the displays update.  This worked until a week ago.Attempting to run Chrome on the server and open the controller URL using the 192.168.1.10:8500 URL (using ColdFusion's internal web server for simplicity) never updates the displays.  If I call the same URL changing to the local IP, 127.0.0.1:8500 then all of the displays/subscribers get their updates.I opened several Chrome browsers on the server itself pointing one to the controller and the others to the same URLs as the displays would use, i.e. 192.168.1.10:8500/index.cfm?mychannel=channel1, 192.168.1.10:8500/index.cfm?mychannel=channel2, 192.168.1.10:8500/index.cfm?mychannel=channel3Calling the serve

Hi, we have a multitenant public cloud hosted service offering that uses cold fusion and I'm told i will need an ISV licence agreement for this and cant buy per cpu licences.  Does anyone have experience on how this is priced and what metrics are used as it's really not clear to me.

Recently, a user informed me that the RichText editor within her form had changed.  When she used the form to send out an email, the copy that she got had no message text.  After two more try's, I decided to try this on our test environment and the same thing happened.<cftextarea name="textarea1" height="200" width="525" richtext="yes" required="YES" toolbar="basic" message="Please type your message." />When this field (textarea1) gets filled in and I dump the FORM elements I get textarea1 [empty string].  Any ideas why this would have started happening and what I need to do in order to correct it again??Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.David

I have had to reinstall CF9 on windows 7 but lost IIS connect. After several trials, decided to use the built-in server for my development. Installed fine and get the administrator page under port 8500. I'd like to put that in my inetpub/wwwroot/ path and have access to CF sites via localhost at that inetpub/wwwroot location.CF doc says can do this by changing the jrun-web.xml file under "virtual-mapping". I moved CFIDE to  inetpub/wwwroot/ pathAdobe ColdFusion 9 * Using the built-in web server I tried it with:"<virtual-mapping>    <resource-path>/*</resource-path>    <system-path>C:/inetpub/wwwroot/</system-path>  </virtual-mapping>"but gets 404 error for http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm "java.io.FileNotFoundException"Would like to be able to keep everything where I have it in the inetpub/wwwroot folder rather than move all files to the CF9/wwwroot/ directory.I'm guessing I have not changed

Hello, all,I've got a form that I'm using AJaX to submit after using jQuery.serializeArray() and JSON.stringify().  I've set the contentType to "application/json".  What ColdFusion gets in the CFC is an array of structs.  Screencap included.<cfset requestBody = toString(getHttpRequestData().content) />What I would _like_ to do is convert this to the form scope.  But converting to a query is just as good.  Question is:  What is the most efficient way to do this?V/r,^ _ ^

Hi,I'm trying to upgrade our ColdFusion from 9 to 2016, and we have some running applications in the production server. I started with discovering and identifying the deprecation features as listed here, so I would like to ask if there is available tools or configurations that can help in finding the risky features (tags, attributes, and attributes values) that need to be change in my current applications, or any automated way to do that?I found some discussions about migration to CF11 but nothing for migrate to 2016 yet.Any suggestion would really appreciated!Thanks,

I have a flex application that is calling multiple ColdFusion services, this has been working for a long time but now all of a sudden it stopped working and I have no idea what is causing it. Basically, I am sending 15 function calls to different services through the flex gateway. The first one executes and all the other ones send this error message "java.sql.SQLException: This connection either has timed out or has been closed and has returned to its pool. You must re-acquire the connection. "  See attached Charles screenshotThe coldfusion application is a very simple ORM application running some simple single parameter hibernate queries like belowremote Wayeo_Service.cfc.city_clerks[] function searchByID39(string q ) {  var hqlString = "";  var whereClause = "";  var params = {};  hqlString = hqlString & "FROM city_clerks";  if (len(arguments.q) gt 0){  whereClause  = ListAppend(whereClause, " ID39_City LIKE '%#arguments.q#%'");  }&nbs

Hi, I've been trying to use powerpoint as a source for the cfpresentationslide tag, but it would always give me this error: Could not initialize class com.sun.star.lib.loader.WinRegKey. How do I fix this? I am using CF 9 and I'm pretty sure that it supports powerpoint.  Thanks!
