I’m migrating to Windows 2012 server and have ColdFusion 10 update 12 installed. I have a ColdFusion datasource connecting to MS SQL 2008 R2 server with connection string (EncryptionMethod=SSL) on Windows 2008 R2. The datasource verifies fine.  I’m getting the following error anytime I query the database.Error Executing Database Query.[Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Object has been closed.I've tried restarting the ColdFusion services, rebooting web/database server but nothing seems to work. Anyone else encountered this problem? If so how did you resolve it? Any suggestion is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help!

We just got a new web server, and new ColdFusion (v8 to v11) . Working my way through things that worked fine before and don't work now. Trying to figure out if this is a new server/new server settings problem or if this is a new CF version problem. I go into the Admin page and turn on "Robust Debugging", go to the page having the problem and get a message of "Server Error 500 - Internal Server error. There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed." Checked in CF Admin that the connection name is the same as before, and that it works. All OK from there. My network administrator says it's not his problem. ANY SUGGESTIONS?Thanks,Kye

I'm trying to incorporate a VAT checking function in my website, for validating entered VAT.This service is granted by european Vies WSDL service.No matter what I try, I always get the same error:Web service operation checkVat with parameters {xx,xxxxxxxxxxx} cannot be found. This is the last code I tried (maybe the fifth or sixth method experimented),just straight from the Coldfusion documentation:<cfscript>    ws = CreateObject("webservice","http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/checkVatService.wsdl");    ws.checkVat("xx","xxxxxxxxxxx");    req = getSOAPRequest(ws);</cfscript><cfdump var="#req#"><cfset soapreq = GetSOAPRequest(ws)> <h2>SOAP Request</h2><cfdump var="#soapreq#"><cfset soapresp = GetSOAPResponse(ws)><h2>SOAP Response</h2><cfdump var="#soapresp#">Where red x represent country code and VAT number.I'm about to let down, three days spent in trying and still no

We recently updated from CF8 to CF11. Getting ready to create interfaces with several new databases. Need to use something like CFGRID in new forms, but since that is a Flash form component and Flash forms are deprecated in CF11, what is the alternative for non-Flash forms for those who need a sub-form with ADD/EDIT/DELETE features like CFGRID? Looks like spreadsheets feature is just for data output/display, not data input.

Upgrading from MX7 to 10.Got a .jar file "cpitools.jar" which I've put into /opt/coldfusion10/jre/libIf I do a jar -tf on it, I get:com/clearcommerce/CpiTools/security/Encrypter.classcom/clearcommerce/CpiTools/security/HashGenerator.classcom/clearcommerce/CpiTools/security/SecCrypto.classMETA-INF/MANIFEST.MFI've registered it in the CFIDE:TagName: CFX_HSBCHashGeneratorClassName: com.clearcommerce.CpiTools.security.HashGeneratorBUT when I try to call it...<CFX_HSBCHashGenerator SharedSecret="#ss#" HashElement="#datainput#">I get the error message: The CFX custom tag CFX_com.clearcommerce.CpiTools.security.HashGenerator was not found in the custom tag database. You must add custom tags to the database before using them. If you have added your tag to the database, check the spelling of the tag within your template to ensure that it matches the database entry.-----So when it says "you must add custom tags to the database" - it's referring to the registration of the Java CFX, right?So

This is regarding Clickjacking issue. To prevent the clickjacking issue I have added the below setting in the config file (web.xml).<filter-mapping><filter-name>CFClickJackFilterDeny</filter-name><url-pattern>https://abcd.rw.xyz.com/mer/nao/app_v4/*</url-pattern></filter-mapping>I have one doubt here . I need to prevent this clickjacking issue for another application as well ( say , https://abcd.rw.xyz.com/mer/nao/app_v5/*). But I did this by adding one more filter-mapping , apart from the one mentioned above, in the config file . Can I achieve this by adding multiple url-patterns in the same filter-mapping?.If possible which is the best method?. I mean creating a new filter-mapping or adding more than one url patterns in the same filter-mapping?. Any idea or thoughts well appreciated?

I am unable to reply to posts (after logging in). The error messages says I should contact the system administrator. Where is the link to the forum's SysAdmin?

Hi, I am using CF11 on IE10 window server2012 with IIS8.0.I am trying to display a simple flash form on IE10 but not displaying any thing, when you right click in that area where it should be display then it showing movie not loaded.code used:<cfform name="theForm" format="Flash" width="300" height="200" accessible="yes"><cfinput type="button" name="btn1" value="CLICK HERE"></cfform>Please assist me on this.Thanks

Hi,Anyone got any pointers for a broken CF10 CFAdmin - the CFAdmin on a client server packed up last night - and not sure why. The site works ok (serves .cfm's)  but the CF Admin page is broken. It's missing the images and 404s the sha1.js file, so can't log in to the Admin. There is a CFIDE virtual directory on our local default site (but there is not one in the main sites web root) but still the problem persists. Fiddled with IIS and no joy Checked web.config's - no clues. Advice appreciated.TIA.

I am trying to get approval to run CF11 in production environment, and scans keep flagging a Jetty vulnerability -- CVE-2011-4461 (http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-4461). It says the solution is to "upgrade Jetty to version 8.1.0.RC2 or newer." Can I just upgrade Jetty and keep everything together ColdFusion? It doesn't seem like that would work or, I assume, Adobe would distribute a newer version of Jetty to begin with.I am not using remote start/stop but am using Solr ... so, I don't think disabling Jetty altogether is an option.Has anyone else run into this? Would you be willing to share your insight? Thank you.Matt

I've been a ColdFusion and Flex developer for way to many years now.  Pretty much turned that horse into glue if ya know what I mean.  Thing is I really like CF so I want to keep developing my business applications in that language.  Problem is I've never really developed responsive web sites nor have I made extensive use of CSS.I'm currently playing with Muse and ReFlow and love what they do.  My only question is there a suggested workflow path for creating website designs in Muse / ReFlow and import them into a CF project?If not why not?

I migrated to Coldfusion 11 and there is a problem with the cfgrid and bind.<cfgrid name="theGrid"     target="pbdetail"     pagesize="3000"     format="html"     onload="load"     bind="cfc:internal/p/_com/pblock.pblockData({cfgridpage},{cfgridpagesize},{cfgridsortcolumn},{cfgridsortdirection},'#trim(url.varpblocknumber)#','#trim(url.varrefno)#')"     bindonload="true"     striperows="true"     selectcolor="lightyellow"     height="200">This works on Coldfusion 10 but no longer works on Coldfusion 11. The loading spinner just spins and the grid never appears. Will this be patched anytime soon?Thanks.

Hello CFBuilders,I encountered what I believe is a bug within CFBuilder 3 (standalone and Eclipse plugin) where code coloring breaks after you insert a comment in a function with named arguments.  To replicate the issue copy/paste the following code in CF Builder: <!--- Sample Bug: Code Coloring  ---><cfset myFunction(      argument1 = "strawberries",      argument2 = "bananas", <!--- these are my favorite --->      argument3 = "blueberries",      argument4 = "pineapples") /><cfset test = "test" />You should see argument3,argument4, and the closing bracket are colored incorrectly.  If you encounter the same issue and you'd like to see this fixed please feel free to vote for this bug here:Bug#3831825 - Code Coloring Breaks When Comments Used Within Function with Named ArgumentsIt should be noted that Dreamweaver can handle this type of code coloring

We have Licensed ColdFusion 10 Enterprise applications on our server .When Java client is upgraded to Java 7.51, we are getting following error while working with our functionality."missing required permissions manifest attribute in main jar"This problem is occurring when we use cftree. we try to find solutions for this but didnt got any break through. When checked on Java site we see that this error occurs if the applets are not signed or self signed.

Recent updates to CFGrid are now signed Java applets that no longer expire, however Oracle has updated the security model for Java again.  The recent Java 7 update 45 now displays this warning dialog, indicating that future Java 7 updates (Java 7u51 Jan 14 2014) will not allow the application to run:Does this need to be fixed by Adobe, since I assume end users cannot fix the applet with the information in the links provided by OracleEnhancing Security with Manifest AttributesModifying a Manifest FileIf Adobe doesn't update the CFGrid applet, does anyone know if the new Java 7u40 deployment rule set feature can be used to avoid this warning?

I'm executing a CFEXECUTE statement in a CFScheduler job that is supposed to C:D a file from one Windows Server to another Windows server.I've built the C:D batch job correctly and can run it successfully from the CMD prompt (by double clicking on the .bat file name).Here is my statement:<cfexecute name="C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe" arguments="/c E:\inetpub\WWWROOT\Tips\ScheduledJobs\tips_to_tws.bat"The job ends without any errors, but I get a C:D error - LAPP010I - Submit file open failure. CCODE=8 FDBK=0So my thought process is this:  when I go and execute the C:D command by double clicking on it alone - it is taking my id/password as the submitter.  This is evident by looking at the C:D logs.And when I execute the CFScheduler job, that runs the CFEXECUTE command, it uses XXXXXX id to run the C:D command.  So my question is - what is the XXXXXX id?  I don't have ColdCusion running on a special service account, so I'm not familar with what id it would be associa

I have a database table entitled meetings. In the meetings table it has the columns named "meeid", "meedate" and "meememberIDs". by using ColdFusion 9 I am able to submit a Standard date in the "meedate" and a comma-delineated list in memberID's who was present from a series of checkboxes from a form. It looks like this :meeid = 2meedate= '2014-06-15"meememberIDs= '3,5,67,78,354, 2345'Now that I have a record of the date and a comma-delineate list of membersID's that came to a meeting, is there a way using stand SQL to extract the memberID's and match numbers to the primary key to another table entitled "personnel"  wherein each number of the comma-delineated meememberIDs column would match the full name  and email to the member of personnel table? example:3 = michael jones - mjones@ptree.com5= chris ebinger - cebinger@ptree.com67 = alfred fox - afox@ptree.com

Hi,can anyone please explain why the vDate is being displayed as a decimal number in the following code. It seems that the IIF() functions returns  some default value and not what I setThanks.<cfset vNow = DateFormat(Now(), "mm/dd/yyyy")><cfoutput>  vNow = #vNow# <br /></cfoutput><cfset vDate = iif(true,  vNow, "")><cfoutput>  vDate = #vDate# <br />  Formatted vDate = #DateFormat(vDate,"mm/dd/yyyy")# #TimeFormat(vDate, "hh:mm:ss")#</cfoutput>

The data is of image type in my database table. How do I save this data as a pdf file. The data in the table is already pdf type 0x151C240002000000080008001400... I tried select boxid, datapdf from records where datapdf is not null FileWrite("data.pdf", records.datapdf[1]); It did save the file as a pdf, but upon opening the file is said "it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged".

I created a cfm template with below contents to test clickjacking issue.<html><head><title>Clickjack test page</title></head><body><p>Website is vulnerable to clickjacking!</p><iframe src="https://abcd.rw.xyz.com/mer/nao/app_v4/" width="500" height="500"></iframe> </body></html>And when I executed this template I was able to click on the "iframe" part. Which indicates that there is a clickjacking issue.Right??. Is there any way to prevent clickjacking issue via CF admin/application code.

I am working on a project where coldfusion(backend) and Flex(front end). I need to point Coldfusion CFCs to Flex application.Can anybody please guide me how to do this.Thanks in advance.Best RegardsAnil

If you are performing a search on a collection of pdf files is there a tag that will either highlight or bold the search term within the pdf?
