When installing 2021 on macOSX Big Sur throws error,  “libCFXNeo.jnilib” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. This appears to be a notorization issue with Apple.  This happens with every mouse click.  My guess is the dev team used a forged certificate, which is common, and a full notorization needs to be approved by Apple. Or maybe I should shut my mouth. 

I have registered a remote server and then created a cluster.  If I add both the local instance and the remote server, when I visit the configured website I get this error: The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred."  However, if I remove the remote server so only the local server is in the cluster the site works fine.  ALSO, if I remove the local server and only have the remote server in the cluster the site works fine.  It's only when both are in does it fail.  In the isapi redirect log I see this:[Fri Jan 19 20:46:36.099 2018] [1184:9128] [debug] ajp_close_endpoint::jk_ajp_common.c (921): (site2) closing endpoint with socket -1 (socket shutdown)[Fri Jan 19 20:46:36.099 2018] [1184:9128] [error] wc_create_worker::jk_worker.c (208): validate failed for DEV_SITE_CLUSTER[Fri Jan 19 20:46:36.099 2018] [1184:9128] [error] build_worker_map::jk_worker.c (310): failed to create worker DEV_SITE_CLUSTERAny ideas what it could be? 

I want to set my Creative Cloud Files folder as my wwwroot folder on my Mac Big Sur 11.4 machine. This will mean that with the sync I can easily develop on other machies from different locations. Currently the server.xml file reads:  <Context path="" docBase="<cf_home>/wwwroot" WorkDir="<cf_home>/runtime/conf/Catalina/localhost/tmp" ><Resources><PreResources base="docBase1" className="org.apache.catalina.webresources.DirResourceSet" webAppMount="/aliasPath1"/><PreResources base="docBase2" className="org.apache.catalina.webresources.DirResourceSet" webAppMount="/aliasPath2"/></Resources></Context> Please let me know exactly what I should update it to? I have tried everything I can think of and google but am obviously wrong... I have restarted the coldfusion server on each of my attempts.My Creative Cloud Files are located at: /Users/davidwhitehead/Creative Cloud Files Thanks in advance for your

HiI have Coldfusión 2016 and currently it has a server monitor, in the browsers it tells me that from this year I will no longer be able to use Flash, will this affect my coldfusión or only the monitoring?Do I have alternatives other than flash?

Hello,For a while now, I can't access server monitoring when I click on the server monitoring button, it sends me this linkThis content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash and when I click on get flash send me here: https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/end-of-life.htmlSince Adobe no longer supports Flash Player after December 31, 2020 and blocked Flash content from running in Flash Player beginning January 12, 2021, Adobe strongly recommends all users immediately uninstall Flash Player to help protect their systems.how do I access if the plash player does not work anymore?  thanks

My "plan" was to install PMY on my home server and use it to monitor a clients AWS server instances and fire alerts etc. My problem is that if I manually add an instance to PMT on my local machine to connect to the AWS server it does not connect. I think the issue is that all instances on AWS are using the internal CF server for admin, running on 127.0.0.1. I do have all the necessary ports opened for PMT and Datastore, and I can access CF admin for each instance using this url format: <my domain name>:8500/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm If in PMT I set the instance to use something like <my domain name> and port 8500 and set the correct secret, the result is the html of of 500 server error page when it fails. So I am not sure how to monitor a remote instance in PMT from my local machine. Any advice appreciated as always!  Thanks  

I have a new Windows 2019 server running CF21.I moved my main site, and intranet, over and all went well.I added an additional site, and extranet, and cfm pages will not load.I created an index.cfm page that displays simple text and the current date.https://harvardtransfusion.partners.org/ displays correctlyhttps://harvardtransfusion.partners.org/index.cfm gives a 404 error.Any thoughts on what I need to do to correct this?  Please be kind as I am not a programmer, but a Blood Banker.  🙂Thank you

Hello -  My company is in the final stages of a months long project testing and tweaking our CF application to work with CF 2018.  The project was set to go live at the beginning of next month.  Now it appears CF 2021 has been released, and appears to be unavailable for purchase.    We do not have the testing and development manpower to confirm our web applications compatibility with CF2021 in the next couple of weeks.  If there any backward licensing possible where we would buy licenses fro CF 20201 enterprise, but be able to install CF2018 enterprise until we are ready to migrate to CF 2021? Failing that, is it even possible to still purchase CF 2018?   And if so, would it be possible to qualify for the complimentary upgrade?  We plan to purchase 3 or 4 enterprise licenses, pending a final business decision.Thank you, -Anthony

Installed PMT and Datastore on my Windows 10 machine. Everything goes well until it tries to start the PMT service. It eventually times out. If I try to start from services panel I get the same result. A check of the PMT logs shows nothing as far as errors. Checking windows event logs shows these: The ColdFusion 2021 Performance Monitoring Toolset service killed process with pid 25056. The ColdFusion 2021 Performance Monitoring Toolset service could not be started within 240 seconds. Increase the server startup timeout value using C:\ColdFusion2021PerformanceMonitoringToolset\bin\perfmontoolsetsvc.exe -starttimeout <seconds> "ColdFusion 2021 Performance Monitoring Toolset". I tried changing the timeout and it still won't start. This was my thrid attempt at uninstall and reinstall of PMT. On the first two attempts I also got this error: Windows cannot load the extensible counter DLL "cfperfmon_2021.dll" (Win32 error code The specified module coul

A lot of shared hosting uses very old versions of ColdFusion. Mine at dailyrazor only uses v10 and apparently I have no serious options for upgrade (at least affordably). (July2021) All the CF10 examples and docs now don't work for amazon S3 (cfhttp, cfdirectory, cffile) because S3 now requires the version 4 signage of credentials, and the hash options of the old CF versions don't handle that. At least... that is what I seem to get from everything I'm reading. So how do people still using old versions of coldfusion, interact with S3? Is there some workaround? Would greatly appreciate any guidance.  PJ

In the example below, assume FORM.NAME has an embedded single quote. Does someone have a moment to explain why <CFQUERY NAME="A" DATASOURCE="MY_LOCALHOST">INSERT INTO TEST (NAME) VALUES ('#FORM.NAME#')</CFQUERY> works perfectly, but if I put the SQL in a variable it fails.  For example, <CFSET lsSql = "INSERT INTO TEST (NAME) VALUES ('#FORM.NAME#')"><CFQUERY NAME="A" DATASOURCE="MY_LOCALHOST">#lsSql#</CFQUERY> fails.  Any idea why?  Or, alternatively, how could I hcvae constructed lsSql so that it would work? Thanks.ps: And using #PreserveSingleQuotes(lsSql)# didn't help. 

I have a simple CF web site where all of the .cfm is in the same directory. I can not use client cookies as the people I am writing this for have cookies turned off in IE, therefore I am using J2EE session variables and CFLOGIN in an application.cfm file (code attached) for authentication. Everything works correctly during login and I can see the encrypted username/password as the cfauthorization session variable.... Session Variables: cfauthorization=Y3BkYWRtaW46cmVwb3J0ODQzOmNwZA== sessionid=c23059df643c42544069 urltoken=CFID=783&CFTOKEN=91556252&jsessionid=c23059df643c42544069 Once I try to browse to another cfm page on the site, I get booted back to the index.cfm login page. After some digging I figure out that the cfauthorization variable was blank after I click on the link, which as I understand it indicates that I am not logged in and the <cfif not IsDefined("cflogin")> <cfinclude template="index.cfm"> <cfabort> code in the application.cfm sends me

Hi, I'm wondering if there is a way to remove typed text added to the scanned PDFs using coldfusion. The goal is to upload one copy of the PDF and display the typed markups to certain users while displaying the original scanned files to others. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thank you,Lesi

Hi, I tried to set null to property and I am usingproperty name="Company" type="string" setter="true" getter="true" default="null"; and for some reason when I serialized it, the data is becoming string instead of null value although I checked the "Enable Null Support".Any idea how to set this up or is this a bug? Thanks.

The FileUpload() and <cffile> method throw an error if you upload files with special characters like "öäu".Everything is set to UTF-8. With ColdFusion 11 we did not have this problem.Does anybody has any idea?RegardsAndy

Consider this function which returns whatever its input is::<cffunction name="FredTest" output="yes" access="public" returnType="string"><cfargument name="lsVarIn" type="string" required="true"/><cfreturn lsVarIn /></cffunction>I test the function using: ABC#FredTest("DEF")#GHII expected to see the output as ABCDEFGHI but instead got ABC DEFGHI.  I can't figure out why.  Everytime I try to use cffunction to return a string CF adds a space in front of the output.  Any idea why?  Thanks.

Hi, Can anyone provide help for intergrating JasperReports Library with Adobe Coldfusion. I have been trying to get this to work without much success (using CF2016). The cfjasperreport custom tag looked perfect to what I would like but I am getting a lot of missing file and java class path errors which are currently beyond me. I'm not sure if I should keep trying to figure this out as it hasn't been updated in 6 years and was focused on Railo/Lucee. Outside of cfjasperreport custom tag. I've setup simple Java JAR files and can call methods on those but haven't got very far with the Jasper Report library directly. Side Note: I am aware of CFDocument but would prefer a reliable report builder/designer for managing my reports. I have looked into JasperReports server and Jasper Reports IO and have both working with CF but being able to swap out CFReport with a custom tag with Jasper Report library without need an external service is something that I would find really he

Hi,I just did a new install of CF 2021 on a Windows server.  All went well, no error messages.I uploaded a test file and visited it from the local server, I get a 404 error.  I checked and CF is running.The same server has php running on it, and a test php file in the same folder processes.Before I go poking around in the CF administrator and making changes, did I miss something obvious? Thank you

This may be a dumb question, but I was not at my current employer when ColdFusion was installed.  We have 3 environments (Development, Test and Production).  How do I tell if they all use the same license or 3 different ones?

Hello,I've been indexing documents with SOLR, and everyday it seems to crash or hang at some point, and so I find that I have to restart it fairly often.  I normaly do that by SSH-ing into the server and the running the following command:/opt/coldfusion2016/cfusion/jetty/cfjetty restartThat normally works fine.  This morning, however, when I wend to restart it I got this message instead:ColdFusion Jetty service is already running or the port is not free exiting Even when I tried to stop and start it (as opposed to "restart"), I got the same error:> /opt/coldfusion2016/cfusion/jetty/cfjetty stop Stopping ColdFusion Jetty Server, please wait ColdFusion Jetty Server has been stopped > /opt/coldfusion2016/cfusion/jetty/cfjetty start You are starting Admin Component for ColdFusion. Starting this service also starts Solr search service (if installed). ColdFusion Jetty service is already running or the port is not free exiting Does anyone know what might be the is

Hello, I am attempting to set up SAML integration, and have been receiving an error during ProcessSAMLResponse:coldfusion.saml.SamlResponseHandler$SamlResponseException: The response was received at http://…….. instead of https://……….. at coldfusion.saml.SamlResponseHandler.handleLoginResponse(SamlResponseHandler.java:218) at coldfusion.saml.SamlResponseHandler.handleResponse(SamlResponseHandler.java:127) at coldfusion.saml.SAMLServiceImpl.ProcessSAMLResponse(SAMLServiceImpl.java:502) at coldfusion.runtime.CFPage.ProcessSAMLResponse(CFPage.java:17502)Everything is happening over HTTPS, and the ACS url is definitely https on the IDP side (Okta) and I have tried this on two different ColdFusion servers. Does anyone know what might be causing this? One server uses Apache to proxy over to CF and the other uses nginx. Im pretty sure that neither use https during the proxy. Could this be the reason?
