Questions

Hi all,Has anyone managed to figure out a way for users to log into CF Administrator using Windows accounts, rather than using local users created on each server with the User Manager? I guess my question is, is it possible to create custom authentication mechanisms for CF Administrator? We have quite a few servers in the same Windows domain, and I'm wondering if it's possible to grant access to the CF Administrators by using Windows group membership.We already authenticate to our intranet applications using AD and <cfldap>, so I'm looking to see if we can link the CF Admin login to AD in a similar way.A blue sky idea for a future version, maybe, but I'd be very interested to hear from anyone who has managed to build something to date.Many thanks,Mike.

We upgraded to CF2016, Red Hat 7 and are suddenly getting this in our apache logs:xx.167.xxx.6 - - [18/Jul/2017:09:28:49 -0600] "-" 408 - "-" "-" "-" 80xx.167.xxx.6 - - [18/Jul/2017:09:28:49 -0600] "-" 408 - "-" "-" "-" 80Lots of 408 errors with no URLs associated to them.   Coming from a large number of IP addresses, including my own.Does anyone have any idea what might be going on here?   No one is reporting pages displaying 408... but these messages must be in our logs for a reason.Thanks

In order to run the latest and greatest ( and somewhat tweaked) CKeditor version, I had the folder in CFIDE (...CFIDE\scripts\ajax\ckeditor) and used javascript in the  source file to call it rather than the bundled FCKeditor.I have been applying all the CF updates as they come and never run across this issue before, so posting in case it helps anyone else out.After running the updater for 12 from the command line -as we have the server locked down- on my Dev box, the folder was no longer there. Interestingly though, the last backup, named  12017ckeditor, was still in the directory.I figured this was good motivation to get 4.7 up and tested in dev, did so, fixed my other issue (multi-line titles in CFchart), and deployed the update on my production server.I again saw the ckeditor folder deleted from CFIDE\scripts\ajax. Copied over my new version from Dev and all is well.My only convern would be if this is a trend in updates to remove unexpected items it will make keeping the

Assuming that you are using AEM for ColdFusion docs, in String Functions, the link for REFind is pointing to staging rather than production.  This is causing and 'Access Denied error."E.g.: https://helpx.stage.adobe.com/coldfusion/cfml-reference/coldfusion-functions/functions-m-r/refind.html Should be:https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/cfml-reference/coldfusion-functions/functions-m-r/refind.html Fix and promote the node in CRXDE and the error should disappear.

I have a fully patched, fresh install of Windows Server 2012 R2IIS 8 CF 11 Standard I installed CF 11 as per the CF 11 Lockdown guide and the CF Administrator came up fine.I went though the CF 11 Lockdown guide, applied hotfix 12 via the the CF Administrator and when done I went to start the CF Administrator site on the builtin web server and I got a 500 error. See below http://127.0.0.1:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfmI went through all the settings and permissions in the lockdown guide and all looked to be in order.After googling a bit I uninstalled the hotfix 11 and the CF Administrator site came up and all worked fine. I went and reinstalled the hotfix manually and got the same error. See below.I tried this several time to no avail. I also tried to install hotfix 11 and even hotfix 10 and still got the same error.I have been all over google trying to find a work around and even tried reinstalling the web connectors as per Charlie Arehart's article ( am willing to try anything at

After installing ColdFusion Builder, I noticed that you can simply use the defaultLocal server or alternatively you can add another server.In my specific case I'm experimenting with a development workstation, however being that I only have a license for ColdFusion Builder 3, I don't have an option to configure the server for ColdFusion 2016. After speaking with an Adobe technician, I was told that I could install ColdFusion 2016 separately (on the same workstation) and simply set the ColdFusion 2016 server as my external server in ColdFusion Builder 3.This brings me to my next point, are there any benefits of including an external server even though it's installed on the same development machine, or should I simply shell out the extra capital for a ColdFusion Builder 2016 license?The pros vs. cons is what I'm looking for here.

Good morningI have been unable to get a definitive answer on this issue, and have spent hours on hold.I am in the process of Rehosting some virtual machines from one data centre to anotherthe Virtual machine will be replicated from one datacenter to the other with DoubleTake, and will have a new IP and MAC addressThere is some concern around the Cold Fusion licencing.Is it tied to IP or MAC address at all?CheersSteve

We are migrating from an ancient MX7 on MS Server 2008 to MS Server 2016 (IIS10) and CF2016.  Lingering problems exist when testing the new setup.  Why Access? That is a common question, to be sure. We are beginning the learning curve for SQL Express 2016. (Just two old self-taught CF dudes)We were able to successfully install MS Access drivers with HTXX drivers via the CF Admin DataSource page. (HXTT MS Access JDBC Drivers)  Other forum postings on Access solutions were echoed by Charlie in forum postings.  I will post those settings to the original thread.Testing the new configuration indicates that we are not handshaking with our data connectors as only a couple static pages resolve. Using a test query page confirmed that result. I am trying to determine if the old MX Application Pool Defaults set to allow 32bit Applications using .Net Framework v.20 is needed for the CF02016 setting which indicates a default install setting of ;.Net Clr Version of v4.0.  No

Hi,Running Cold Fusion 11, 32 bit environment, SQL Server 2008.The SQL Server port 1433 has a cert installed due to the data.When accessing the SQL database from the Cold Fusion application, receiving the message:The SQL Server login requires an SSL connection.Prior to the cert install, could access the database.Is there anything in the Cold Fusion administrator that can be set?If not, what would be the specific instructions?Is there a specific version of Java that should be installed?Thanks for your help,Mike

I am in the process of rebuilding our server that is running ColdFusion.  I am having trouble getting the ODBC services to install and run properly which I need to be able to connect to some MS Access databases.Configuration:Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bitWebSphere 6.1ColdFusion 8  (when installed shows as version 8,0,0,176276)The installation of ColdFusion and deployment to WebSphere seemed to be ok.  CF seemed to be working until I tried configuring an MS Access database. What I found was:"ColdFusion 8 ODBC Server" appeared in the services but would not start."ColdFusion 8 ODBC Agent" did not appear in the services.I tried following the documented processes to manually remove and install the ODBC services, however when I run the install, I get HTTP 500 errors.  Digging deeper I found that the configuration files that I was supposed to copy in referenced locations that were not where CF was installed.  I made changes to those files to hopefully fix the

Upgraded from CF7 Enterprise on Windows to CF8 Enterprise. After the installation, the "ColdFusion 8 ODBC Agent" and "ColdFusion 8 ODBC Server" services are not started. Tried to start them manually and the directory where the services point to (D:\ColdFusion8\db\slserver54\bin\...) is missing. Of course when you go to the Administrator and add a new datasource, I get a message that the ColdFusion ODBC Server service is not running or has not been installed. How do I install it?? I have uninstalled CF8 and reinstalled it 3 times trying to get it to install. The server is Windows2003 Standard Edition. IIS. Ideas??

Hi,I am using ColdFusion11 version 11,0,03,292480 with java 8 installed and am using the coldfusion API setMSSQL function to create an mssql datasource.  The datasource is a named instance and when it is created I get the below error when it tries to verify:java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Conflicting connection information. When the instance name is specified, it is invalid to specify the port number. The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Conflicting connection information. When the instance name is specified, it is invalid to specify the port number.I have tried removing the port argument (port end up being set to 1433) and even setting the port to an empty string (port ends up set to 0).  Can anyone help set a blank port number when creating a named instance datasource using the API please?API call code: <!--- initialize the admin API ---> <cfset Admin

is there a way to use ColdFusion session management without writing a ColdFusion app where each page is a separate .CFM file?  (We're running ColdFusion 11, btw).I have an Angular 2 SPA, and I'm using AJAX to call .CFC files on the back-end to read and write data to and from our server.  I've never used ColdFusion session-management before, and I have literally no idea where to start.All of the documentation I've read about using Application.cfc for session-management seems to assume that you're going to have a ColdFusion app wherein each page is a separate .CFM file.  Clearly that's not going to work for me.  So how do I get it to work with a single-page-application that is not a .CFM file?Thanks,Laurence MacNeillBall Ground, Georgia, USA

Just recently CF 2016 refused to start and I found out, from viewing the error logs, that my neo-security.xml got corrupted.  I do not have a neo-security.bak file.  Is there anywhere I can get a rudimentary neo-security.xml file just to get things going?  I realize that all my datasources and other settings will be lost, but at least getting the application server running so I can get to CF Administrator will be a big step forward.

Hey there-I'm an editor full time and have finally taken a project on Adobe Premiere after working on Avid and at times FCP for the last 12 years.  I'm pretty sure I know the answer already, but is there a way to add more buttons to the button options in the button editor on the source and record monitors?  Seems like this is a pretty basic feature that a lot of people would probably want for customizing their setup and unfortunately I think that the buttons provided in the button edtior are all Premiere users are given to work with for customizing.  Thanks.

Recently updated to Cf 11 update 12 to address the tomcat security bug. Previously ColdFusion had never been updated(wasn't around during this time). Now after update all I get are 500 errors when trying to load a cfm page. I have removed and re-added the connectors, not sure what else to do beyond this point as I am new to coldfusion.Sitting on Windows Server 2012 R2, with IIS as Web Server.

I have just switched over to coldfusion 2016 on windows 2012 with IIS 8 and can't get the server to process .htm pages as .cfm. Just like in previous versions, I have added the following to the web.xml file with no success. <servlet-mapping id="coldfusion_mapping_        <servlet-name>CfmServlet</servlet-name>        <url-pattern>*.htm/*</url-pattern>    </servlet-mapping>    <servlet-mapping id="coldfusion_mapping_89">        <servlet-name>CfmServlet</servlet-name>        <url-pattern>*.htm</url-pattern>    </servlet-mapping>This worked fine for coldfusion 9 and 10, but I can't find any documentation or posts with a solution for 2016. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
