I am not getting the debug output that should display when  Enable Request Debugging Output is checked. I am not talking about enable robust exception information, which works fine. I am setting up a new Windows 7 computer for development (8MB RAM). I installed CF10 (version 10,283922) running on Apache 2.2.24, connecting to an oracle 10g database over VPN. Debugging IP address is 127.0.0.1. The server is very slow without debugging output and impossibly so with debugging output turned on, and then the output doesn't even display.My previous Win XP pro computer ran cf8 on IIS with the same database and the debugging output worked. The performance was slow and I assumed it would be better with 64 bits and more RAM. Needless to say I am dissapointed to find that it is slower. Any thoughts on how to display debugging output or why the performance is so bad?ThanksAnne

The subject may seem confusing, but it is very simple really. I am new to CF and I am trying to utilize the same DB, but call different values based on where the content is on the page. I have found a way for it to work, but it seems clumsy and extraneous at best. This is the way I have found to do it:<cfquery name="getGame25" datasource="dbtest">SELECT  gameID, gameName, gameDev, gameYear, gameConsoleFROM tblGamesWHERE gameID = 25</cfquery><cfquery name="getGame24" datasource="dbtest">SELECT  gameID, gameName, gameDev, gameYear, gameConsoleFROM tblGamesWHERE gameID = 24</cfquery><cfquery name="getGame23" datasource="dbtest">SELECT  gameID, gameName, gameDev, gameYear, gameConsoleFROM tblGamesWHERE gameID = 23</cfquery>......<cfoutput query="getGame25"><div class="showcaseText"><p><h1>#gameID#. #gameName#</h1></p></div><table><tr><td>Developer:</td><td>#gameDev#&lt

Hello; I have a question regarding the Coldfusion Security Bulletin APSB13-03 for ColdFusion 10, 9.0.2, 9.0.1 and 9.0. Is this hotfix also availablefor Coldfusion 8.01? We use the Coldfusion 8.01 enterprise version.Patched on the last available hotfix APSB12-21 -> Security update: Hotfix available for ColdFusion 10 and earlier. By regulary scanning our systems a finding regarding CVE-2013-0632 was found by the scanners, to resolve with APSB13-03. Is APSB13-03 available for Coldfusion 8.01? Core support ends 7/31/2012 (the last hotfix for cf 8 wa from 11/2012!) But extended Support reaches until 7/31/2014. frank

The Systems Support matrix for Cold Fusion 10 references Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1?  Is Cold Fusion 10, not supported in RHEL 6.3?

I am trying to launch a file when the user clicks on a link. Sometimes the filename has a # sign in the name, like "My File #1.xlsx". When they click it, they get an error saying "The file specified in the contentTag does not exist" and then the shows .../My File not found.Additionally, though I can't remember for sure at the moment, I think I've had trouble with a few other characters such as  ^, *, ?, ", <, >, |. And consecutive periods (.) like My...Filename.xlsx. However, I can live with that problem but not the # in the filename! Surely there's something I can do to launch such a file. Here's what I'm using:this is the call: <td><a href="./fileopener.cfm?attached_file=true&file_location=#qryGetFileNames.ServerDirectory#\#qryGetFileNames.ServerFile#">#qryGetFileNames.ServerFile#</a></td><cfset file_location = "#url.file_location#"><cfheader name="content-disposition" value="attachment;filename=#file_location#"><cfcontent deleteF

Hi Team, Currently we are facing an issue in Scheduled Tasks options in ColdFusion 10 while we attempting to schedule some tasks. We are using the same facility successfully in ColdFusion 7 Standard edition up to now and the Schedule Tasks works perfectly in that version. Also the same Scheduled task option we have tested successfully in CF 10 Trial version (Developer Edition) before we purchased the license. Once we updated with the Standard License all schedules were deleted from the list which we scheduled in Trial Version and when we have tried several options  to create new tasks, we continued to get the following messageAn error occurred scheduling the task.Advance Scheduling support is not available in this edition of ColdFusion server. Also as we have checked under Server Updates in CF 10, there is no available updates are listing. Kindly let us know is there any workaround on this issue. Best Regard'sMadu

Take a look at the following bit of CFML:<!---\\ This is a coldfusion comment \\---><cfif false>          <cfsavecontent variable="Test">                    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>          </cfsavecontent></cfif><!---\\ Some other coldfusion code \\---><cfset Foo = 'Hello '><cfset Bar = 'World'><cfset FooBar = Foo & Bar>Seems like some simple test code right? Shouldn't generate any output at all right? Now take that sample and go run it. Are you staring at a jumble of oddly encoded characters that basically contain all of the unprocessed CFML code on the page? Because that's exactly what I'm looking at.It's the craziest thing! The root issue is the "utf-16" attribute of the XML declaration. If you remove that or change it to

I am unable to get any of my ColdFusion websites to resolve on a new server Windows 2008 R2 server (IIS 7.5) with Plesk.  The issue appears to be permission issues between CF and Plesk but I cannot figure them out for the life of me.  I have run and re-run the web server configuration manager about 15 times as administrator.    I have the most recent hotfixes installed.  I was able to get the CF Administrator to load on the default website, but none of the other domains. Even having done so I have had to create the Jakarta and CFIDE directories manually on the other domains.  So I suspect this is a signe of a permission issue.  What permisison settings do I need to put in place so that Plesk and CF10 play well together?I am getting the following generic error.500 - Internal server error.There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.I get this even when trying to load a jpg file.Chad

I have an Access 2010 DB like the one shown in Fig 1 below and I am using Coldfusion 10 Trial to query this database. Atwork I am continually asked for "group" reports which means that therequestor wants to see everyone in a particular person’s group. For example, ifI get a request to see everyone in David Drew's group then thefinished report would look like Fig 2. below.

having a wierd issue here.   i believe it may be a bug in CF.code:<cfftp secure="true" action="open" server="#ftpserver#" port="#ftpport#" username="#username#" password="#password#" fingerprint="#fingerprint#" connection="myftp"><cfftp action="getfile" connection="myftp" remotefile="testfile.txt" localfile="E:\tmp\testfile.txt" transfermode="binary" passive="true"/>throws errorAn error occurred during the sFTP getfile operation.

I'm a newbie so please excuse if this is a simple question.  I've not found discussions that seem relevant so far though.On ColdFusion 8, at random times a file in cfclasses exists with file size is zero.  When the file exists, the web site has trouble.  If CF cache is cleared, life goes on normally.Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot to see what is causing the 0 KB file, and how to stop it from happening, will be much appreciated.

We have coldfusion 8 application server (Enterprise Edition)  installed in one server. There is a plan to upgrade backend SQL server  from 2005  to SQL server 2012 with windows 2008 as Operating system . When we checked the below url  regarding support  for Coldfusion 8, we found SQL server 2008 and SQL server 2012 missing in the  Page3 (Database platform support included)http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/pdfs/cf8_systemsupportmatrix.pdfAbove url seems to be updated very long back.We would like to get a confirmation that whether Coldfusion 8 will support SQL server 2012 ?Any  Inputs  or suggestions will help us in proceeding further

Just did a new CF10 Windows install (not my first) on a fresh 2008R2 server.  Everything ran fine after the install, all of the service packs installed fine. Since it needs to deal with other servers, I have a domain account that all of the CF servers use for the service logins.  As soon as I change the login on this installation from the service account to the domain account (and restart CF), any attempted access to CF gets a 500 error.  Access to the default IIS page works fine.  I went into IIS and under Authentication changed the "connect as" for the physical path to be the domain account, restarted everything, still no luck.  Then I went into Windows Explorer and made sure that everything under C:\inetpub\wwwroot had permissions for the domain account (even though this was a 500 error and not an access denied error).  Same thing, no luck.Gotta be something stupid I've done, or forgot to tell the IT guys to do when then installed everything.  Anyo

This is on a ColdFusion 10 install on Windows 2008 R2 with IIS 7.5. We have an additional authentication module, Cosign, installed for single sign-on.If I make a request for https://[servername]/test/ and dump the CGI variables, cgi.auth_type is set to Cosign and cgi.auth_user and cgi.remote_user are both set to my username.If I make a request for https://[servername]/test/index.cfm and dump the CGI variables, cgi.auth_type, cgi.auth_user, and cgi.remote_user are all set to [empty string].Some of the things we've tried (largely based on the posts Coldfusion 10 with IIS 7 Windows authenticaiton and cgi.auth_user not staying set😞Moving the Cosign module to the top of the modules list in IISEnabling Windows auth at the server level in IIS (index.cfm then required additional authorization beyond Cosign)Enabling Windows auth at the directory level in IIS (no change--remote_user not populated)Disabling Anonymous auth at the server level in IIS (index.cfm then returned a 401 Unauthori

I tried posting this in the general CF area two weeks ago with no reply, so I thought I'd try here.I applied the hotfix last week and everything seemed to be working, thought all was well. It turns out that forms that used to work without a hitch suddenly generated error 500 with no clue as to the real issue. These forms are simple fill it in, create a pdf file, display the file.  Nothing too creative.  With no error message, and nothing to tell me what is going on with this, I was forced to unload hf901-00005.jar and go back to hf901-00003.jar It is all working again, but I'd really like to have the security patch AND have my forms work. Any clues??
