Questions

I am running on linux using Apache httpd-2.4.41, with the latest JDK and Coldfusion 2016.  Everything worked great through update 13.  However, after applying update 14 and after doing the wsconfig -upgrade, I now have an issue where when a user attempts to connect to a page or directory that does not exist, it displays a 403 error.  In addition, I noticed that my .htaccess rules seem to now be completely ignored.When I roll back to version 13, everything works normal again. Has anyone else experienced or am I the only lucky one that is dealing with this.  

Hi Team,We have coldfusion enterprise license running in one server. We are planning to migrate to another server. But during the transition time we want to run coldfusion in both servers and shutdown the old one as soon as new server is stable. Please confirm whether this is fine to use same license in both servers for some period (~30 days).  Let us know. Thanks.

Hi,I am trying to generate an excel report using ColdFusion 2018 and in the excel file there is a column for email id.  Instead of showing email id, it shows "[email protected]" as hyperlinked text. And if i click on the text is says "Cannot open the specified file".  Is there a setting where i can see the actual email id.  This is happening only in coldfusion 2018, i was not facing this in earlier version.  If i generate a web report (Showing html report in table on the screen) using ColdFusion 2018, it works fine.   I presume this can be resolved by some security setting and not through code as code is the same for older versions. Please find the attached screenshot, coldfusion code to generate the excel (removed unncessary code and kept only the necessary sections), excel spreadsheet generated. Could someone help me with this.  I have been searching for the answer in internet and i couldn't find a single thread for this. regards

Something in CF updates seem to be changing the default behavior of URL encoding/decoding when making cfhttp calls.  I first noticed the behavior after applying update 2 but the same breaking behavior exists in update 9 also so any update after update 1 is experiencing the problem.  In the example, sender.cfm just makes a cfhttp get call to receiver.cfm where it is processed.  Sender.cfm is a Windows 10 dev box running IIS 10 though I have reproduced the issue with the built in web server also. sender.cfm (CF 2018, update 1)<cfhttp method="get" url='http://example.com/receiver.cfm?q=bacon %26 eggs'></cfhttp>receiver.cfm (any version of CF)q = bacon & eggs sender.cfm (CF 2018, update 2 - 9)<cfhttp method="get" url='http://example.com/receiver.cfm?q=bacon %26 eggs'></cfhttp>receiver.cfm (any version of CF)q = bacon %26 eggs I'm trying to identify why this occurred, whether it was a core change in CF or some other library, a CF adm

Hi all. I'm a long tme CF coder, but have never used Fusebox. Now I have a new codebase to maintain that uses Fusebox, and I'm in need of getting up to speed quickly on it. Does anyone know how to tell which version of Fusebox my application is using, so I can get some books for the right version ordered and on the way while I dig in? I see that numerous files in the application begin with fbx_fusebox30... Does that necessarily designate Fusebox 3.0? Thanks!

Hi,We have received a report from our security scanner contractor (SSC) who is testing our application for vulnerabilities with new warning as per subject "Insufficient session expiration". The user logged on to application concurrently two times with the same user credentials. Both sessions are using Chrome and, one of the session is Incognito window.  Then, after changing password in one of the sessions (non incognito), the application logged the user out and redirected to login page.The security requiremets as per SSC, all the sessions opened for the user must be logged out.Is it possible? We are using CF2016 on Windows Server 2008 R2.CF is configured to use J2EE session.I tried different methods to invalidate/delete the session and, nothing seem to work for both sessions. Only one session is logged out. Our logout function is using following to delete a session:<CFSET StructClear(SESSION)><cfcookie name="CFID" value="" expires="now"><cfcookie

I'm hoping someone could shed some light. We're testing Redis as session storage. It works just fine, but we're running into an issue where the keys are not properly expired by Redis - they basically just fill up the store. I think the problem is that the keys don't have an expiration?  Greatly appreciate any insights. We're on CF2016, SP7.

Hello, all, I've got a weird situation that's got me scratching my head. I've got a form page, which includes an older version of jQuery (1.11.2) at the top of the page.  Near the bottom of this page I am CFINCLUDING a .js file.  Works great. Tried updating to jQuery 3.5.1, and suddenly this included .js file breaks, stating that "'$' is undefined on line 11."  But $ is being used on at least seven lines prior to line 11. $('#thisForm').css({..}); /* THESE lines don't break */ $('#thisForm').attr(...); ... function ums(val){ switch(val){ case 'a': case 'b': case 'c': $('#thisForm').css({...}); /* THIS is the line that breaks */ break; default: break; } ums($('#thisSelect').val()); /* Triggered by this line */ Totally stumped on this one.  Ideas? V/r, ^ _ ^

Hi all. I'm a new employee at a company whose developers installed CF2018 awhile ago, and I'm trying to install my development CF2018 to match theirs. Unfortunately, they don't remember whether they installed using the Development Profile, the Production Profile, or the Production Profile + Secure Profile. Since I'm seeing notes on the Web that this option cannot be changed once installation is complete, I want to determine what they originally selected. Is there a setting in their cf administrators (or elsewhere) that they could check to find out?  

Hi all, My organization is in the process of changing authentication process.  Rather than authenticating using data in the "Subject" attribute in the certificate (which I can parse out from cgi.CERT_SUBJECT), they want to authenticate using the "Subject Alternative Name" attribute extension of the certificate.  However there is no cgi variable (that I am aware of) that I can get the data from that attribute. I've been researching this for weeks, but am stuck.  Anyone have any ideas? I apologize if my terminoligy is used incorrectly above...I'm a pretty good programmer, but SSL/Certs is not my strength. Thank much in advance!

In previous versions of CF, someone had created an add-on that allows you to use the UI to view and manage certificates installed on your server(s).  That version doesn't seem to work on CF2018. Does anyone know of an add-on that creates a UI to manage the certs?

Hello, all, I know that there is a way to get, sometimes, the hostname of the client system connecting to an app/site.  <cfset inet = createObject("java","java.inet.InetAddress") /> <cfset session.remote_host= inet.getByName(cgi.remote_addr).getHostName() />  However, if you are in an air-gapped development network that does not have internet access, is there a way to do the same? V/r, ^ _ ^

Hi Team,   Can you please provide some guidance as to what we could look for or do in order to resolve the following issues? We are currently using ColdFusion 2016.           We are seeing issues where the application and exception log files are not getting updated when errors occur on the applications.         We also see that the mailsent log files are not getting updated when emails are sent from the application. Thanks Hemanth 

My ColdFusion 2018 is installed successfully.  I can access its Admin page with no problem.  My Apache 2.4 is also running ok to access html files.  My OS is CentOS 7.6.   I used the following command to installed the external Apache connector: /opt/coldfusion2018/cfusion/runtime/bin/wsconfig \-ws apache -bin /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -script /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -dir  \/usr/local/apache2/conf -v The command seems completed successful.  The following two entries are put into my httpd.conf file. Include "/usr/local/apache2/conf/mod_jk.conf"Include "/opt/coldfusion2018/config/wsconfig/1/mod_jk_vhost.conf" I also restarted Apache and ColdFusion servers. Then the access for any html files are still OK.  However, if I test any .cfm file, I got the following error message: 503 Service UnavailableThe server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems.

We are trying to use the cfdocument tag on coldfusion 2016 and getting errors on creating the pdf.I have found that the issue only appears on the coldfusion servers where we have defined multiple instances. On the default cfusion instance everything works perfectly.  When running from additional instances it does not.  In the coldfusion administrtor the Font Managment does not show any fonts on the additional instances.  On the cfusion instance I can see all the Adobe installed fonts that were part of the initial install.On startup of the additional instances I am getting the error May 27, 2020 21:45:47 PM Error [Thread-65] - com.lowagie.text.FontFactory.getFontFaces()Ljava/util/Map;May 27, 2020 21:45:47 PM Error [Thread-65] - com.lowagie.text.FontFactory.getFontFaces()Ljava/util/Map; This is also the same error that appears if I try to define my own font directory.How can I get the fonts to appear on the Font Management in the additional instances. W

We've had this issue for a while apparently (now running v11u18) where emails won't get sent but they are also not always logged by CF.

I have installed ColdFusion 10 on a server running Windows Server 2016.  I then installed the Mandatory Update.  I am getting the following server error 404 - File or directory not found when I try to access the following URL https://saweb1.matrix.txstate.edu/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm.  Searching the Adobe website I found an article that mentions installing an updated wsconfig.jar to correct the problem.  I have been unable to locate a copy of the wsconfig.jar to download.  Will an updated copy of the wsconfig.jar file resolve my error or do I need to install something else?
