Doing installation and configuration testing on standard Tomcat 7.0.42 and ran into an interesting issue which *might* be licensing:1.  CF10 deployed as J2EE WAR file on 1st  physical host and 2 Tomcat instances:  works fine.2.  CF10 deployed as J2EE WAR file on 2nd physical host and 1 Tomcat Instance:  will not accept the admin password to complete the set up.  "Invalid password.  Please try again"  -     A.  the passwordreset.bat does not make any difference     B.  recompiling the J2EE WAR file does not make any differenceIs this a CF10 license issue:  one license but two servers & some inter-machine check re licensing?  If necessary, I can do a 30-day trial since this is just for testing in preparation to move from CF9 and JRun.Thanks,ScottPSAm very happy with the deployment thus far on the 1 server where CF10 has installed easily and is working correctly; just need to be able to

I have an invoice report that had N number of line items with N number of lines of description per line item. The invoice displays all of the line items, and then at the bottom of the last page, it provides a signature block for the customer to sign. Here is my problem: If I put the signature block in the page footer, it's displayed at the bottom - which I want - but repeated on every page. If I put the signature block in the report footer, it's displayed on the last page - which I want - but immediately following the last line item. I need it at the bottom of the last page only. The closest I have gotten is to try and predict the number of page that I will have and then hide the page footer until (what I think will be) the last page. However, this still have the page footer whitespace to show up which isn't right.

I've recently starting using cfthread on one of my CF 9 servers.   I've seen some wildly odd behaviour from the threads and am wondering if this is a known issue.I am grabbing a set of data which is 1200 rows deep.  I loop over that data 12 times, grab 100 rows each time and create a unique thread.   If I don't artificially add delay the query distribution between the threads is random and weighted heavily towards the last thread created.   Even after adding 5-6 seconds of delay between spawning new threads – the distribution is not level.   The ONLY time I can get 100 rows per thread is when I insert a cfdump of the query (adding a LOT of additional processing time).Im writing the thread names into my table for debug purposes - so I can get an exact count of which thread is processing which numbers.Here is the distribution after adding 5-6 seconds of delay for a set of 100:threadtest COUNT(`threadtest`)MigThread1 21MigThread2 51MigThread3 2

We recently moved our application server to Server 2008 from Server 2003, running ColdFusion 8.0.1 over IIS 7.5. Ever since moving, our scheduled tasks no longer run. We receive the following message:  There was an error running your scheduled task. Reasons for which scheduled tasks might fail include:The scheduled task is pausedThe URL is a redirection URL.The URL is protected by IIS NT Challenge/Response or Apache .htaccess password.  The Username and Password text fields for editing a scheduled task are intended to support Basic Authentication only.The Domain Name lookup failed.  Try using the IP address of the domain whenever possible.The URL is an SSL site, but the SSL port was specified incorrectly.The Web site is not responding.The directory specified for published results does not exist.None of these apply. If we run the URL direct from the server, the page executes correctly. In the scheduler.log the error we see is: "Error while executing task Connection Failur

1down votefavoriteI have a Windows 2008 R2 server, IIS7, Coldfusion 9.0.2. I created a 2nd CF instance, created an IIS website, used the web server configuration tool to bind the IIS website to the CF instance. Restarted IIS & CF windows services. It does not work as expected. It does not look like the IIS website is actually bound to the 2nd CF instance. With both the Windows IIS service and the new CF service running, I am able to hit the website and click around it.I then stop the CF service and the website still works. I would expect the website to not work when the CF Windows service was stopped. Any ideas as to what is going on?Thanks ~Joe~Here are the steps I did to create everythingCF admin > instance manager > Add New Instance with create Windows service optioncreate the website in IISremove the windows CF servicecreate a windows service and configure it to use a separate jvm.config filerestart IIS & CF servicesuse the web server configuration tool to bind the ne

For some reason ColdFusion seems to be changing some spanish characters. I've narrowed it down to ColdFusion (or maybe IIS 6 scripting handler) because the text comes out fine on a plain .html file but simply changing it to .cfm causes the characters to come out incorrect. Any help would be great! ThanksP.S. The screenshots above look far better when I'm editing this post vs viewing it, not sure what's going on there.

We're using CF10 on 2008R2 - with about 25 MS Access DB's running. Our problem started yesterday when the odbc server would lockup and require a reboot to get thing rolling again.  After the reboot everything was fine for about 8hrs then the process started all over again. Looked in the application log and this is the error that started it all.Error Executing Database Query.[Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver]Network problem, session aborted due to internal error in remote procedure call, connection closed. The specific sequence of files included or processed is:

I don't know how else to get this in front of Adobe managers, so I'm posting my displeasure here. I have asked previously in forums how to get detailed information about the differences between Enterprise and Standard editions, especially in CF 10. The product buying guide does provide a list of features not available in CF 10 standard, but there are no details on the differences where Enterprise has greater functionality. (i.e.sending email).  CF Enterprise is a major investment for all but the largest organizations. Why does Adobe not provide details on functionality and options? Adobe - if you are indeed planning to continue with ColdFusion beyone version 10 you need to pay more attention to CF product information and documentation. I'm not here to debate whether Adobe is planning to drop CF, but just commenting that the product feels neglected from both a documentation and sales standpoint.

Learning tape on ColdFusion Builder shows an extension to auto-generate CFC components for access to database tables.I can't find that function in ColdFusion Builder 2. Is it still available? These are the extensions i have installed:This is what i see when i right click on a database table:Thanks very much!Steve

Just installed coldfusion 10, put the same simple password in every field asking for during the install. It finishes the admin localhost page comes up but it does NOT accept my admin password I put in. Is there an initial defualt admin password I have to put in the first time I dont know about?

So, I'm working on implementing document upload capabilities on our (ColdFusion 10) site. I have a page that makes use of CFFILEUPLOAD, and have it to the stage where everything is working well, except when I try and upload from a Mac using Safari. I have successful uploads on Win7 and XP using current versions of Chrome/Firefox/IE/Opera/Safari, and on Mac using Chrome.However, on Mac using Safari, I can select a file to upload, and when I click the upload button, it greys out like normal, but things stop there. The progress bar, which would usually start turning green and eventually get to 100%, does nothing. I'm not terribly fluent in Mac, so anything I do to try and figure this out is shooting in the dark.Anyone have any idea where I can go with this?Thanks in advance for the help.-Rob

Documentation says that this version of CF should recognize tif images. I am trying to retreive images using imageNew from a url and CF 9 says that the .tif file is not an image. When I run GetReadableImageFormats() tif is not supported. CF 10 works fine, but this install is still in testing so I am unable to upgrade at this time. I need this to work on my CF 9 legacy install.How do I get CF 9 to support tif files? I can find nothing about this anywhere. So if someone has the solution please post?Thanks!

Hello All, This was brought to my attention that when we have a toggle switch that either displays or hides cells below, it completely ruins the look. Everything has always worked correctly in previous versions but not now.

Hi all,in certain cases it is necessary to me to instantiate objects like this:<cfcomponent...><cfset this.myObj = new myCFC() /><cffunction...>some code</cffunction></cfcomponent>I think to remember that I've read recently that this kind of instantiating isn't recommended. So I just wanted to ask the veterans about it.Mostly I use this way in cases where recursion are used so I do not need to reinstantiate the objects with each recursive call of a function.Thanks in advanceHurga

It's been awhile since I've done any CF and I'm baffled by the results I'm getting. I want to select all the records where the date is greater than or equal to today. This is with CF8 and an Access database. There are records for 9/25 thru 9/30. I can't get the record for today to show. <cfset dateToday = createODBCDate(Now()) /><cfoutput>DateToday: #DateFormat(dateToday,'yyyy-mm-dd')#</cfoutput><br /><br /><cfquery datasource="survey" name="test">          SELECT *          FROM Images          WHERE StartDate >= <cfqueryparam value="#DateToday#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" /></cfquery><cfoutput query="test">#startdate#<br /></cfoutput>DateToday: 2013-09-26Results:  2013-09-27 00:00:00.0  2013-09-29 00:00:00.0  2013-09-28 00:00:00.0  2013-09-30 00:00:00.0Furthermo

Hi all,New serveur on W7. CF9 installed.Every day, need to kill JVM process saturing up to 1,5Go to liberate memory.How come that it does not come down. How to tune it in order to fit my trafic needs ?Thanks for your help,

Hi everyone. I have what I think is a simple query (see below) that pulls date information from a table. As you can see from the query, I want it to pull dates for anything greater than and equal to today's date and anything less than and equal to a date one week from today's date. This works, however, CF does not output any events on today's date; it begins outputting tomorrow's events. Can someone point me in the right direction as how to fix this so dates for today are output as well? Thanks!

I am considering migrating a ColdFusion 9 application from SunOS  5.10 Generic_148888-04 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890 to ColdFusion 10 running Red Hat Linux on commodity PC hardware in a Cloud server farm.    Does anyone have any experience with this or something similar that they could share?  Documentation would be much appreciated.

I need put some information on the report footer which data from other tables then the main report.It seems that report builder only accept one query, are there any way to let my report footer data to link another table or data source,Because they are differrnt structure, it will be difficult to put in same table structure.If I hard code the report footer then I need update the report cfr file every time the data change.Your help and information is great appreciated,Regards,Iccsi,

Back in June I installed the CF Builder trial on my work machine.  2 days later I had to uninstall it due to our software compliance policies.  I *maybe* used it twice, and have been using our standard Eclipse (Juno) with CFEclipse plugin IDE.  We are planning on migrating away from DW and will either stick with Eclipse/CFEclipse or move to CF Builder, if we can trial it!Fast forward to last week.  All the issues have been taken care of, I'm free to install CF Builder and evaluate it for possible purchase by my team.  I download latest trial install, go through installation, and am promptly told at first activation of the new install my trial period has expired!Yes, I did install it over 60 days ago, but I almost immediately uninstalled it once I was notified it was a no-no and did not use it.
