Reality check

[Phillip Vector]

Just need confirmation that I'm not losing it..

I have apache running on my dev server. A client gave me his files and
I'm trying to get them set up on my local server (he is running IIS).

However, after I create the mappings in CF and go to the directory
that in his IIS, he has set to default to, I get a ColdFusion error
(some variable is a complex variable or some such). It finds the files
and the cfc as well.

So.. It isn't that I'm using Apache and they are using IIS.. Right?
The code is just broke.

or am I missing something here?

That might depend on the app. We have seen instances where IIS will pass
something as one CGI variable, whereby Apache would send it as something
completely different. If you don't have internal logic to check for both
and act accordingly, it can be an issue. These occurrences are rare, but
possible.

Don't forget about case-sensitivity of filenames.  Especially on includes and such.

The files were given to me as is and I was told they work fine on his
windows dev machine. The more I think about it, the more I'm wondering
if I don't have the files that are on the server, or his remake of it
(he said only the admin directory works currently, but on the site,
the non-admin files work).

I'm installing a virtural machine and seeing about eliminating all
possible issues with the server config.

As for the error message..

 The WEEKDAYDAO argument passed to the init function is not of type
ScheduleTimeDAO.
If the component name is specified as a type of this argument, its
possible that a definition file for the component cannot be found or
is not accessible.

The error occurred in
C:\Webpages\Testing\vv_loc\cfcs\schedules\ScheduleDAO.cfc: line 6
Called from C:\Webpages\VinoVisit\vv_loc\cfcs\schedules\ScheduleBuilder.cfc:
line 22
Called from C:\Webpages\VinoVisit\vv_loc\admin\application.cfc: line 22

4 :     <cfset variables.instance.scheduleWeekdayDAO=null />
5 :
6 :     <cffunction name="init" access="package" output="false"
returntype="ScheduleDAO">
7 :             <cfargument name="TimeDAO" type="ScheduleTimeDAO"
required="true">
8 :             <cfargument name="WeekdayDAO" type="ScheduleTimeDAO"
required="true">

The main thing that makes me suspect that it's code is that I'm
accessing http://127.0.0.1/Testing/vv_loc/admin/ and it's correctly
pointing to C:\Webpages\Testing\vv_loc\cfcs\schedules\ScheduleDAO.cfc

Is the app installed at the same place than on his machine relative to the
root? The error seems to say that the object isn't returning in the right
type, probably because it's missing the path (or mapping).

Umm Bingo.
If you check "*Disable CFC Type Check " in the CFADMIN (Server
Settings>Settings) That will make this error go away.*

<cfset variables.instance.scheduleWeekdayDAO=null />

Ermmmmmmm, since when has this worked?!

Do you create your own null variable?

Like I mentioned before, this is badly written code and apparently,
it's being held together by some gum and duct tape (TAKE THAT
MCGUYVER!) :)

Anyway, yeah. I hope to be able to convince the guy to just let me
overhaul the entire thing as there's allot of things like this.

The reason I asked is because <cfset something = null> will error unless
null is defined. I thought maybe there was some Java magic going on a few
lines up.

Nope. No java magic. At least, not from what I saw in the limited
amount of time I was willing to dive into this. :)

It's worth noting that this could actually cause other problems for
you in the long run if you do not understand what this setting does.
To be clear - there is nothing "wrong" with turning this feature off,
just make sure you know what it does.

Adrian,
You can't see what's before line 4, maybe it's something like...


3: <cfset null="null">
4: <cfset variables.instance.scheduleWeekdayDAO=null />

Ermmmmmmm, since when has this worked?!

Do you create your own null variable?

Hey All,
I've recently ran into an issue that I was hoping I could have a little help
with. My company has been using custom 404 pages for awhile that we set up
in iis however we had never set up this custom 404 page to display on .cfm
pages, only missing folders.

Ie; www.website.com/asdasdasdsd/ would display a custom 404 error
But www.website.com/asdasdasdsd.cfm would not.

I recently set this up by going in the iis properties for our site, went to
the home directory tab click on configuration and selected edit from the
mappings tab. From here I checked the verify that file exists open.

This enabled the file.cfm custom error to appear however for some reason it
disabled all of my ColdFusion flash forms. None of them appear now. If I
undo the iis setting that I changes earlier they all re-appear.

Has anyone ever ran into this issue before? Is there a better way to do
this?

Thanks!
Paul Alkema

Don't do that - it breaks things (as you've discovered).

Instead, in the Administrator, you can specify the "Missing Template Handler" - set that to the same file as you're using for IIS and it should solve your problem.

(You probably also want to set the "Site-wide Error Handler" too.)

you can also use onMissingTemplate() method in your Application.cfc
this way you can define different error pages and handlers for your
missing .cfm templates for each application running on same server,
whereas settings in cf admin are server-wide (all applications running
on same server will use same missing template page).
