Questions

Hello - I have CF 2021 and it was installed last year. We have a license for it but recently within the last 2 weeks it displays a message saying that we have 15 days left in the grace period. However it is not counting down each day I login. Is this a bug of some sort?  How do I fix this? I am currently on update 3. Thank you!  

After installing Update 5 for CF2021 and updating the JDK from 11.0.14 to 11.0.17<cfdocument no longers works if the encryption attribute is specified. We've tried document-2021.0.05.330109.jar (two versions, one from the update 1,831kb, and one sent to us from CF Support: 4,233kb) i.e.<cfdocumentfilename = "MyFile.pdf"format = "PDF"fontembed = "yes"mimetype = "text/html"encryption="128-bit"permissions = "AllowPrinting,AllowCopy">My Content</cfdocument>Fails with no error message. Removingencryption="128-bit"permissions = "AllowPrinting,AllowCopy"works, although the pdf can then be edited. Good:<cfdocumentfilename = "MyFile.pdf"format = "PDF"fontembed = "yes"mimetype = "text/html" >My Content</cfdocument>

First of all, this is NOT about a Flash app or the Flash Player. We know that ship has sailed. The client has a legacy front-end desktop executable which was compiled from mxml/as files and runs on the AIR application platform - on many devices in a closed network. So, a console, and not a web or browser-based app.The back-end data & biz rules are provided by a ColdFusion 11 server via a homegrown API that pumps traffic through the /flex2gateway/ daemon.Obviously they need to migrate to CF2021, right away - IMO. I'd also like them to rework this front end too, but that's a 2 year project at least. Anywhoo: When I hit the /CFIDE/flex2gateway/ folder on my development version of 2021, I get a plain 404. So it's not there?Does this mean the support is entirely missing (deprecated) now? Or maybe it's hidden behind some lockdown defaults and config fiddling?I've heard of a possible solution using Lucee and BlazeDS, but I'd prefer to exhaust the ACF options first. I k

We're experiencing occasional "class not found" errors after modifying a java jar set to reloadOnChange.These are the settings we use in our various application.cfc(s): this.javaSettings = {LoadPaths = [ 'G:\www\_config\autoLoadJar\' ], loadColdFusionClassPath = true, reloadOnChange= true, watchInterval = 5, watchExtensions = "jar,class,xml" }; In our server farm we have a number of servers hosting a dozen plus different web applications each with ColdFusion 2021. Generally the jar loading works as expected, but sometimes after updating a jar, although most the applications function correctly and recognize the change, one or two will lose access to any of the classes in the updated jar. Any request to a page or cfc referencing a class file results in a "class not found" error. Resetting the specific application or restarting the service fixes the issue. Note that other applications on the same machine function correctly. Any help would be appreciated. Arthur&nb

Hi, Stack; IIS+CF2021 I'm trying to use the ColdFusion Security Sandbox with a pretty sophisticated ecosystem and I've noticed that parts of it tend to give java access denied errors if they are not accessed with the proper caseSensitivity. Imagine you have a sandbox entry for:E:\inetpub\wwwroot\someDirectory\That allows you to see:E:\someFiles\ and E:\someFiles\- This all works great in most cases. But then if someone gets to the website like https://someweb.com/someDirectory/index.cfm  it works fine.Then if they somehow get to https://someweb.com/somedirectory/index.cfm  It does NOT always work. The error message with the 'access denied' ALWAYS has the exception error struct with the relevant tag.Context."TEMPLATE" member saying:E:\inetpub\wwwroot\somedirectory\index.cfm You can go correct the link in your browser:https://someweb.com/someDirectory/index.cfm  And it might still fail. IIS captures the link right in the lo

Hello all, We recently upgraded to Coldfusion 2021 from a working Coldfusion 9. One of the applicatons uses the jquery .ajax function and serializeJSOn in Coldfusion.  Under version 9, it all works well, and returns to the javascript an array with ROWCOUNT, COLUMNS, and DATA.   Under 2021, it does not work properly.  After some research, I have changed the #SerializeJSON(goat, true)# to #SerializeJSON(goat, "Struct" )#, and tried other various things.   Interestingly, the 2021 javascript is not even fired under the "success" option in .ajax.   Could anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Jim

My team develops and maintains a Coldfusion application (using CF 2018 Update 15) including multiple occasionally connected clients using the flex gateway for data exchange.Currently our application is being migrated to new server infrastructure and on the new servers we need help with a problem. On the old servers we had the following JVM timezone configuration: -Duser.timezone=NewYorkThis had to be added because without this timezone parameter some objects could not be synchronized between the flex clients and the server. All of our servers are in timezone CET, but on the old servers everything worked well. The time used in the Coldfusion application was server time (CET). On the new servers with the same JVM configuration the server time again is CET, but Coldfusion now internally uses timezone NewYork. When we configure CET in the JVM everything is ok in the Web application, but again the Flex clients fail to synchronize. The only difference I can see betwe

We would like to update our Coldfusion servers from CF 2018 to CF 2021, but we still have mobile apps using flash remoting in connection with the coldfusion servers. We are working on replacing those apps, but this needs time.On the page about deprecated features I can see that the flash remoting was retired in CF 2018 but I do not see that it was removed in CF 2021.But when I install CF 2021 there is no administration for flash remoting any more and I did not find out how to get it alive again.Is it possible to use flash remoting in CF 2021 or was it removed without documentation on the deprecated features page?

Hello, first off I stink at CSS. Issue is I can't get all the buttons to be dead center in their div when they're in a form field. So far I can only get one to do it (which is odd). You can see I don't really know how to use grid-column or grid-rows that well. Please help fix this: <html> <head> <style> div.container { display: grid; grid-template-columns: 100px 20px auto; grid-template-rows: auto; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } div.header { grid-column-start: 1; grid-column-end: 5; grid-row-start: 1; grid-row-end: 5; background-color: white; width: 100px; border: 1px solid #000000; } div.fouth { grid-column-end: 4; grid-row-start: 3; grid-row-end; 3; background-color: Silver; width: 100px; height: 30px; border: 1px solid #000000; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; } div.middle { grid-column-start: 3; grid-column-end: 5; grid-row-start: 1; grid-row-end; 1; background-color: Silver; width: 100px; height: 30px; border: 1p

Our ColdFusion application is based on a page with all the menu options that calls the selected pages within a frame.How can we display details of the page called in the browser tab : the standard <title> tag is not shown (as it is within a frame).Ideally display the title, but the URL or any other unique identifying value will do. Code extracts : In the Frame called “main” we initially show the welcome page, and when the relevant menu button is clicked, the Java script  function replaces the contents of the “main” frame with the new page. <FRAMESET …>                <FRAME SRC="../menuContents.cfm" NAME="Contents" … >                <FRAME SRC="../welcome.cfm" NAME="main" …></FRAMESET><noframes></noframes> <td><input name="image" type="image" onClick="power('xxx.

Hi,Recently deployed ColdFusion 2021 on Centos 7.9.  Also downloaded and installe the hotfix.  I soon discovered wsconfig would not run and I found the articles about downloading a new wsconfig.jar  With the new jar installed wsconfig will run but now complains that "Coldfusion could not locate the connector for this configuration.  Refer to documentation for suppported web server for you OS."The detected Apache version is 2.4.6 and I do see mod_jk24.so in the jar file.  Am I missing something?  

We installed the ColdFusion 2021 version on a new server and configured the existing Coldfusion applications to run on it. One of the ColdFusion applications, which does not have any file with .hbmxml extension works fine, but the other application has a few file with .hbmxml extension gives the following error. We verified the IIS web server's request filtering list to be sure .hbmxml extension is not in the block extensions list. Is there any other configuration files should be updated to run the hibernation files without any problem?
