This post is from my personal blog nimitsharma.wordpress.com In this post, we discuss how to upgrade the latest minor version of JDK(Java Development Kit) of the ColdFusion server. ColdFusion can run only on top of JDK or JRE with Server VM. Oracle also started providing separate download link for JRE and Server JRE. ColdFusion only works with JDK or Server JRE and not with Client JRE [For more details refer article]. There are two ways to change the JDK […]

In the current version of Solr supported by Coldfusion, leading wildcard search is not supported by default. A ’*’ as the leading character in a search will not work. For example this code : <cfsearch collection=”new” name=”x” criteria=”*title*” categorytree=”books/history/english”> Will throw an error : There was a problem while attempting to perform a search. Error executing query : org.apache.lucene.queryParser.ParseException: Cannot parse ‘*title*’: ‘*’ or ‘?’ not allowed as first character in WildcardQuery Workaround for this is to tweak schema.xm […]
Reproduced from original post here. Datasources in ColdFusion have always been defined either in CFAdmin or through Admin API. This made it difficult for applications to be portable across ColdFusion servers. CF11 brings application specific datasources to ColdFusion. With this, applications can register their own datasources (when they start) without messing with the server-wide datasources defined in CFAdmin. The datasource details can be defined in Application.cfc Syntax:- ———— this.datasources.derbyds={ driver=”Apache Derby Embedded”, database= “C:/dev/ColdFusion/cf_main/cfusion/db/artgallery/”}; this.datasources.dsn1={“database”=”regression”,”host”=”localhostMSSQL2008″, “driver”=”MSSQLServer”, “username”=”sa”, “password”=”password”}; this.datasources.dsn2={“driver”=”MSSQLServer”, url=”jdbc:macromedia:sqlserver://localhostMSSQL2008; […]

A grid will load properly, but when the javascript function is called with AjaxOnLoad and function tries to reference the grid, you will get that the reference is “undefined”. This is a sample code : <html> <head> <title>AjaxOnLoad test</title> […]
