First, some background. dbvarname is an attribute for cfprocparam to specify named parameters while calling a stored procedure. For details refer https://wikidocs.adobe.com/wiki/display/coldfusionen/cfprocparam Versions prior to ColdFusion5 had support for dbvarname. This was deprecated in ColdFusion MX, brought back in 7.0.1 and deprecated again in 7.0.2. The reason was the lack of proper support from multiple jdbc drivers. Since then, this was a major ask among ColdFusion users. ColdFusion 11 brought this attribute back from the dead. It was disabled by […]
This is the first in a series of posts on WebSocket proxy configuration. ColdFusion uses dedicated port (8575/8577) to start its internal WebSocket Server by default. Earlier, these ports were required to be always accessible from outside. This setup works well for intranet applications. But for public facing web applications, it is not advisable to keep port open and let it be accessible from outside. ColdFusion 11 has introduced proxy support for WebSocket. There is a new proxy module that can […]
In CF10 we had introduced cfoauth tag which helped in social login integration. Lets use it to build a simple facebook app which will download your facebook profile’s pic, add some image effects to it and post it to facebook. 1. First we need to ask user to login via facebook so that we can fetch his profile image. <cfoauth type=”facebook” clientid=’YOUR_CLIENT_ID’ secretkey=”YOUR_SECRET_KEY_HERE” result=”r” scope=”” redirecturi=”REDIRECT_URL”> 2. Not lets set this info into some variable <cfset Session.fbinfo = […]

Happy Birthday ColdFusion!
We would like to make an announcement to highlight a great public application that was built with Adobe ColdFusion 11 Mobile Platform Tools by one of our well-known community members, Dave Ferguson. We think the app is a great example of the types of mobile solutions that can be built utilizing the features available.
Well done Dave! Thanks for sharing.
The application was built using these mobile features of ColdFusion 11:
Local data storage access using components.
Remote app inspection using built-in weinre server.
App debugging during development process.
Application building via phonegap build for deployment.
Bootstrap was used for UI controls and layout.
Dynamic tempting was achieved with Mustache.
jQuery and other Javascript plugins for miscellaneous UI elements.
Description:
Tournament Scorecard Pro is an app for keeping score at a martial arts tournament. These tournaments don’t have a scoreboard for spectators, so it is up to the spectators to keep score themselves. This has historically been done with pen and paper. However, this method leads to lost scores or other issues. With the app, spectators can easily keep track of scores and always have them with them. They can now easily look back at previous tournaments for reference. The app also helps during the tournament when it comes to correcting scoring conflicts and figuring out ties.
Have you built a mobile application using any of the ColdFusion 11 tools? Tell us about it!
You might want to set up ColdFusion in a distributed environment where ColdFusion is running on one machine and Web server is running on a different machine. Following are the set of steps that have to be performed to achieve this (less error-prone): This applies generally to both ColdFusion 10 and ColdFusion 11 and beyond. 1) Have ColdFusion server installed in a machine (machine 1). 2) On machine with web server (machine 1), download and install VC Runtime if not […]

Over the past two decades, ColdFusion has had a profound impact on web application development. In the early days, ColdFusion made a difference to web application development by offering an easy-to-use language for all things Web. Today, ColdFusion empowers our customers to build desktop and mobile […]

Recently this error popped up when one of our customers updated their system so we wanted to share how it can be resolved.
The following error may occur under ColdFusion Administrator in the scheduled tasks tab:
The error occurred in scheduletasks.cfm: line 188 -1 : Unable to display error’s location in a CFML template.
This problem occurs if neo-cron.xml file becomes corrupt.
Workaround:
Place the following in ColdFusion11cfusionlibneo-cron.xml file and restart the Application Services
<wddxPacket version=’1.0′><header/><data><array length=’4′><struct type=’coldfusion.server.ConfigMap’></struct><boolean value=’false’/><string></string><string>txt,log</string></array></data></wddxPacket>
Alternatively, if you have a good backup of the same file you could replace that instead of the above step.
We are unable to reproduce any particular events that cause this issue. If you have run into the problem, feel free to indicate in the comments any potential steps that may have contributed to it.
