I've been getting the following CF error when attempting to use the CFAjaxProxy tag: The specified CFC path.to.cfcname.cfc cannot be found The specified CFC definitely existed, and all the mappings had been set up correctly. I was calling it with the following code: I was tearing my hair out for about an hour, before I realised think CF not AJAX - the path to be supplied is in exactly the same format as all CFC references - i.e. excluding the .CFC file extension.

Just had the following issue when trying to start a CF8 instance. Within the windows services control panel, I clicked start for all of the instances (8) - and they all started except 1.

There doesn't appear to be a 64bit driver for MS Access data sources. I know - no-one in there right mind would use access for driving a website - but we still host a couple (literally) of sites which were created at least 6 years ago and have barely been changed since... Solution: Import said databases into SQL Server...

Does anyone know of an SMTP event gateway for ColdFusion> What I'm looking for, is a way of implementing helpdesk type functionality, whereby any emails to a certain domain are handled by ColdFusion according to a set of rules (e.g. create new issue - add comment to an exiting issue etc.) It struck me that it should be relatively straightforward to handle incoming SMTP transmissions using a ColdFusion Event Gateway (seeing as SMTP is a relatively simple text based prtocol...

I'm in the process of specifying a new web server, which will be running ColdFusion 8.01 Enterprise (as well as IIS etc.). The server will be running ~6 active instances of ColdFusion - and will initially be configured with 4GB RAM - with the option of upgrading in the future as required. We will be using Windows 2003 Enterprise as the operating system.

Got back home from Scotch on the Rocks - just wanted to publicly thank all those involved with Scotch on the Rocks. In particular I want to thank Andy Allan and his wife Leanne for the huge amount of time and resource they have given to make this conference the best ever European ColdFusion conference, together with Kev, Stephen and others.

ColdFusion by default stores log files in 2 locations, dependant on the type: [More]

I have come across the following issue when attempting to persist a CFC to the Coldfusion Application scope, when the the CFC method had been invoked remotely.

Be careful when setting up a root ColdFusion mapping, where the ColdFusion root and the web server root are not the same location. On our standard Development machines, we are running IIS on Windows XP, and have been developing against 3 versions of ColdFusion. We set up 3 IIS virtual directories (/cf5, /cf6, /cf7) each pointing to a subdirectory of our sites folder (c:\sites\cf5, c:\sites\cf6, c:\sites\cf7 etc.) - with the corresponding version of CF handling each virtual folder.

Its definately harder than windows - but I have managed to get ColdFusion 7.02 Server running on Apache, on Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn). My previous experience with Linux is very limited to say the least - and most of the issues I ran into were due to misunderstandings on my part about how linux works... Main issues i ran into: Ubuntu does not have a root account (not strictly true - but when I though it was asking me for a root password - it was actually asking for my password...
