Hello,This issue occurred twice this week. Our CF application server suddenly stopped. When I checked the Event Viewer log, here are the errors I found:The description for Event ID 263 from source ColdFusion 10 Application Server cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted.

Hi,I have installed 10 cold fusion and my application is made ​​in flex 3.5 and my data is in a data base oracle But my application can not populate my combo box. So I appear to select [object Object].What's wrong?

Hello, everyone,I've got a confusing bit happening, right now.I'm using SpreadsheetNew() to generate an Excel report AFTER a page with the exact same data is loaded.  (Basically, the data appears, then the page can be resubmit to generate the Excel.. and it's not like the data in the database changing would have an effect - I'm serializing the data to JSON, posting it, then deserializing it back into a query object.)I've got numbers that appear like "1728074" and I'm dividing them by 12 (to get 144006.1666666667) and using NumberFormat on the display page and it's working just fine.Trying to replicate the same math and logic for the page that creates the Excel spreadsheet.  The same logic is giving me the same full number (144006.1666666667), but when I apply NumberFormat() (with or without a mask) to that value, it's as if the value is being divided by 1000!  So, instead of getting 144006, it's giving me 144.  That's it.I'm not applying cell formatting prior to the

ZDNet announces there is a security hotfix for ColdFusion but provides no link to where I can read about it or download it. I go to the Adobe site and look for it by browsing and searching and can't find it. It's been hidden well.Maybe the ZDNet announcement was made prior to Adobe updating their website? Or maybe I just can't find what is obvious for others.

I am trying to send mail using ColdFusion (8) and Office 365, but I'm not sure what username to use in either the Mail Settings in CF Administrator or using a regular CFMail tag.  Any help is much appreciated!

Is CF 10 supported by Windows Server 2012 R2?Dave

When writing a tag-based function, I can say <cfargument name="componentArray" type="component[]" required="true">.How do I do the same thing in script?public void function someFunction(required component[] componentArray) {} gives me a syntax error in CFBuilder, so I expect that won't work.

We have a Google premier license and use it to create maps displaying markers defined by database lat/long values.  I want to include one of the JS API generated maps inside a PDF we create using cfsavecontent and cfdocument.  However, the map canvas is always blank when viewed inside the resulting PDF. Is there any reliable way to do the cfdocument step *after* the map has loaded on the user's screen or save the map canvas to our server as an image so we can include it in the cfdocument?Many thanks for any assistance provided.

I'm using the cfdirectory example code right of Adobe's site yet in CF11 I can only get it to show the folders in the directory and not any of the files.  Is it possibly a security setting in CF11?The code is pretty basic:<cfdirectory directory="D:/IIS" name="dirQuery" action="LIST"><!--- Get an array of directory names. ---><cfset dirsArray=arraynew(1)><cfset i=1><cfloop query="dirQuery"><cfif dirQuery.type IS "dir">    <cfset dirsArray=dirQuery.name>    <cfset i = i + 1></cfif></cfloop><cfdump var="#dirsArray#"><br><!--- Get all directory information in a query of queries.---><cfquery dbtype="query" name="dirsOnly">SELECT * FROM dirQueryWHERE TYPE='Dir'</cfquery><cfdump var="#dirsOnly#"Thanks!Gary

I need to be able to set a date in the application.cfm file for example<CFSET APPLICATION.stopdate='10/15/2014'>Then in my site on other pages I have code that says<cfif reportdate GT #APPLICATION.stopdate#>Do This</cfif>The problem is sometimes I need to change the APPLICATION.stopdate to another date during the middle of the day.For example I need to change the APPLICATION.stopdate from 10/15/2014 to 10/25/2014However I notice when I change the  APPLICATION.stopdate in the application.cfm to another date during the middle of the day that the APPLICATION.stopdate stays the old date.How do I make sure that the APPLICATION.stopdate changes sitewide when I change it in the application.cfm?Do I use another variable scope?

Hi, I am trying to combine a bar and line chart ti display data.  Everything looks good except that the yaxis scale is off.  I set the scaleMin to 0 but that doesn't help.  Below is my code, the custom XML style and a screen shot.  My ultimate goal is to get the yaxis to start at 0, not -1,000 as is currently the case.  I have combined this data with each set represented as bar charts and do not have this problem.  It must be the combo of bar and line charts together.  Any assistance is most appreciated.<cfchart title = "#variables.ReportName# Seedlings Ordered"    style = "../SO_R_overall.xml"    Format = "PNG"    pieSliceStyle = "solid"    show3D = "no"    showBorder = "yes"     showLegend = "yes"    tipStyle = "MouseOver"    chartHeight = "#DefinedChartHeight#"      chartWidth = "#DefinedChartWidth#" &n

I am on a team developing and supporting a CF10 web application that is used on both desktop and mobile (iPad) platforms.  I have a form with 2 CFSELECTs which are bound to CFCs.There are views for both the desktop and mobile version.  They are virtually identical *except* for the mobile form fields are in <div> tags instead of an HTML table.  They both use the same CFSELECT code:<cfoutput> <cfselect name="region" selected="#rc.region#" bind="cfc:applications.theApp.model.services.myApp.getRegions('#rc.DSN#',{district})" bindOnLoad="true"> </cfselect></cfoutput>The desktop version works as expected, the region options change based on the 'district' select box option,but the mobile version will not work on initial page load.  Using Chrome to emulate the mobile version, I noticed in the console that cfajax.js does not load the first time the page is accessed.  The CFSELECT form fields shows no options.But, if I F5 refresh the page, c

I'm just returning to programing a long dormant site of mine. In the past, I handcrafted an online editor, but now, I'd like something more sophisticated and am thinking about FCKeditor. Does anyone have experience with it? (Does this forum use FCKeditor?)A web search returned this link (FCKeditor 2.x/Developers Guide/Integration/ColdFusion - CKSource Docs) related to ColdFusion. Is this information up-to-date?

In WIndows Services, my cfintra instance is running. In CF Instance Manager, my cfintra instance is stopped, and I can't started via this page. In CF instance logs I get this: And visiting my website simply returns a 500 error. So I started the CF instance via CMD with: coldfusion.exe -start -console and now my website is running. However, the status of the instance in Windows Services is 'stopped' and if I close the CMD window it shuts down the CF instance. I have 4 CF instance that I'm managing via the instance manager and CFINTRA is the only one I can't start and stop successfully from the manager. So, how do I debug this issue?

I found a bunch of topics on this subject, but none seem to exactly be doing what is going on for me.I have a ColdFusion/Java routine that displays funding requests that need to be approved. When you click on the action button, you can either approve or disapprove. When the user presses the button, I get the error message via e-mail with a copy of the trace. It shows me the statement that isn't valid. I copy it and run it in SQL*Plus on my Production database. It returns the row expected. How can that be? Confused.Here is the trace [link]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3594970/1244Err.txtOracle 11g on a Windows server

Hi,Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a build a report based on query results. In the query result, one field is a CLOB (which contains XML. The XML contains two tags - "description" and "count"). I want to read (&parse) the XML and store the "description" and "count" in a hashmap. But when I try to parse it, I end up in an error. I'm currently  using XmlParse but I got an error "The markup following the root element should be well formed."  I immediately used IsXml() to find out if the XML I am reading is well formed.  And the answer is "NO".Could someone help me in converting it into a "well formed" one?(This is what I've tried: I appended "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>" to the XML I'm reading coz it was missing this.  I later used XmlFormat to convert the XML into a string format.  But IsXML tells me that even this is not well formed.)Thanks much for your help!

I have been trying to get an answer out of Adobe for months, but have gotten the runaround.Here's the question I've been asking. We have many licenses we need to upgrade before core support ends. If we don't get answers, we may be forced to use another vendor.I needed to clarify a finer point of the ColdFusion licensing for both v9 and v10.From the v10's license agreement (http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/legal/licenses-terms/pdf/Adobe%20ColdFusion%C2%AE%2010.pdf 😞 1.5 “CPU” is each distinct central processing unit (physical or virtual) within the Computer capable of independently manipulating and operating the Software. Each CPU may contain one or multiple processing cores. The total number of cores operating the Software in the Computer may not exceed the licensed quantity, and will be greater of the exact number of cores operating the Software in the case when Licensee configures the Computer (using a reliable and verifiable means of hardware or

Hi,I'm using ColdFusion 9 andI want to show/hide a form field type=checkbox if an assigned value is selected in a dropdown list, but it doesn't work.I use a javascript function.My question is: Are there better possibilities with ColdFusion to do this or is Javascript the best solution???Here is my code:<script type="text/javascript">    function show(){        var select = document.getElementById('dropdownlist').selectedIndex;               if(select == 1) document.getElementById('area').style.display = "block";        else document.getElementById('area').style.display = "none";            }</script>....<cfquery name="select_list">select * from table </cfquery><cfform name ="form"><cfselect name="dropdownlist" onChange="show();">    <op

We have been experiencing problems with Coldfusion and we cannot figure out what is happening.  We don’t know if it is a server issue, or a code issue.  It occurs primarily on one of our two production servers in one instance (but has rarely occurred on other servers).  What happens is that the transactions slow dramatically or stop being returned at all.  We use the Seefusion monitor and can see CF accept and process the transactions, which start to get older and older and never finish.  It will occur in one instance, and we have to restart that instance to fix it.  Then often, about an hour or two later, the same will occur in the other instance on the server.  When we look at the database server, there are no transactions running in SQL for any of the aging jobs.  Usually, when traffic slows or backs up due to volume, we can see a SQL job running for all of the jobs displayed in SeeFusion.A review of the application and exception logs does not

We are testing a new webserver: Windows Server 2012 Standard and Coldfusion 11When I add a using <cfldap> it takes 15 seconds before the user appears in the Active Directory Users and Computers.On our previous webserver, Windows Server 2003, the user appears immediately in the AD.Is this a Coldfusion problem or a AD problem?

We installed a new CF11 server on a win2008 with iis7. the .Net ver is v2.0.50727We have this code :<cfobject  type="dotnet"  class="System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry"  assembly="#dllPath#"  name="site">to allow us to contact to the IIS directory to later create a Virtual Directory on it.On the prev CF9/2008/iis7 /.net v2.0.50727 this worked great.ON the new server I get this error :Ensure that the DotNet agent is running and you have provided the correct host and port information-DotNet Side does not seem to be running.We made several checks to make sure that the .NET integration with CF works - and it does, We used a simple example of a "math dll" from the wed and it worked with out any issue. But when we try to communicate with the .Net assembly we get the error.ANY suggestions will be highly appreciated Thanks

My department has recently installed CF11 on a new redhat server.  I can't get the monitor to work correctly.  I've enabled Monitoring and Profiling and the Monitoring Server.  I can get the monitor to launch and am able to login.  However, it doesn't show any requests at all.  In addition, any changes I make within the monitor (such as monitoring alerts or # past jobs to list that are longer than # seconds) don't save.  Any thoughts?  I've been able to set the alert configurations through the API, but they dont' seem to work.

We recently upgraded to IE 11 as our browser at work and I noticed today that any document that has a cflocation is having problems.  On the first try, the cflocation code is ignore.  Subsequent attempts show the browser 'working' but not doing anything.While I could put our site in the compatibility list, it means that any of all of our users would have to do the same.  Is there a workaround?As an example, this is one page of our site:Mackenzie Tuttle Receives the Don Davoren Rocky Mountains Regional ScholarshipI have breadcrumbs at the top of the page.  If you click on one of the last few  (2014, honour-awards, committees) you go to the root of that directory which has an index.cfm that redirects to the appropriate location.This worked fine in IE 9 and works fine in Chrome and other browsers.  It seems to be an IE 11 thing.Sue
