Adobe ColdFusion User Survey

Adobe is running a ColdFusion User survey to understand various aspects related to ColdFusion such as product satisfaction, product usage, platform usage, purchase process, access to training resources and issues related to hiring CF developers. Adobe is working with a third party research organization to host and analyze the results from this survey.
Survey will approximately take 20 mins of your time, but the detail in the survey may provide valuable insights into making the product, that you care for, so much better and relevant.
Here is the link for the survey.

this is almost as funny and entertaining as " divorce court " on TV....
If I was one of those hair brained individuals into watching a show like that...this adobe stuff would be more fun than a barrel of monkeys !
you got a ton of people who give for nothin their expertise and time to help other users ( on a regular basis ) and they would be considered ( in a civilized world ) " loyal ".
you got tons of people using the products over the years, and you would think of them as at least loyal customers ( just cause the tools work for the jobs ).
THEN you got some whacko CEO who loves to keep secrets and is playing around behind your back....and couldn't care LESS about you...and basically says " I want a divorce ! "
Well, not really a divorce..just a separation...like, " I want to leave you and you can follow me if you want, but I don't love you and if you don't follow me too bad ".
Now you got your best friend, the divorce lawyer, looking at you over a brandy and cigar ( in your den late at night while you cry over the situation ) saying , " Hey, things aren't really terrible.. you can always just let her run away and do the separation...and then file for divorce later "...
But your heart is in it... you feel bad, you feel let down, you feel like you got screwed....and NONE OF THAT MATTERS to the courts....
I can't wait for season 2 !!!!!!

  • Censorship on Adobe ColdFusion forums - Open letter to the management of the Adobe ColdFusion forums

    This is reproduced from its original location at http://cfmlblog.adamcameron.me/2013/06/censorship-on-adobe-coldfusion-forums.html; it is also posted on the relevant ColdFusion forum. Apologies for the cross-post, but the two forums have different membership, and I think it's relevant to both.
    Open letter to the management of the Adobe ColdFusion forums
    (I do not know how to contact you, but I will try to find out and send this to you directly as well, as a courtesy).
    Hi.
    I am a veteran user of your ColdFusion support forums. Over the last decade or so I have been visiting the site daily (indeed several times a day: I get notified when any post is made on any of your ColdFusion-centric forums), and answering as many of people's questions as I can. For the last few years it's been via the web UI so you can go check my participation, but prior to that I was using the forums via NNTP, and my participation during that period is less easy to quantify, but it's to the tune of a few thousand posts / answers to people's questions. I consider myself an asset to the forums, and the ColdFusion community. I mean this just as "for the record", rather than any attempt to inflate any sense of my worth.
    However as of today - unless you take remedial action as I will go on to detail - I will be surrendering my membership of your forums, and ceasing all attempts to assist people there.
    Why am I considering doing this? Well firstly I will reproduce a thread from your forums, then I will discuss it. Where possibly the quoted material below is as it was initially posted, and if it's not exactly as originally presented, this is an accident on my part. I have highlighted some points I wish to discuss with you, simply for ease of cross-reference.
    I have confirmed with Jason Dean (12Robots) that is happy for me to quote him here. I did not attempt to contact the other participant: "grazan".
    Below is a chronological reproduction of the thread (in its original form, anyhow):
    cold fusion 9 500 Internal server error.
    created by grazan
    all of a sudden none of our cfm web pages work on a windows 8 server running iis 7 .... the
    server shows no errors in the event viewer .... occasionally functionality comes back w/o doing
    anything ...... cold fusion did have all the hotfixes updated a few months ago but i cant get to
    the admin page to give what the version is
    thxs
    created by 12Robots
    First, ColdFusion is one word.
    Second, what is a WIndows 8 server?
    Third, and most important, you have provided ZERO detail. We can't help you if you don't provide something other than "none of our cfm web pages work".  ColdFusion has logs (<coldfusionDir>/logs) JRun has logs (<coldfusionDir>/runtime/logs). Even if the Windows event viewer shows nothing, there should be info in those log files about what is going on.
    Good luck,

    Well if you got over your misplaced indignation for a moment, let's see:
    ColdFusion is what people will google for, so in the spirit of helping others who might have the same question as you later on, spelling it right will help the community.
    Jason's observation that you give us absolutely nothing to go on so it's basically impossible to help you is a fairly poignant observation, right? You do want help? Right, so here's some suggestions:
    Articulate your issue clearly, with sufficient detail that we can help you. Read this:
    http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smartquestions.html
    Secondly... being rude to someone like Jason who really is one of the most helpful people on
    these forums is a pretty stupid idea. And just serves to make you look a bit of a dick. Esp. with the caps lock on.
    But anyway, let's call that a false start. Give us the details of your issue, and we'll try to help.
    Cheers.

    And now back to the live thread:
    created by 12Robots
    Forum admin,
    You censored the comment "ColdFusion is one word"?  Seriously?
    I didn't realize that suggesting that someone spell the name of the product correctly was against the forum guidelines.  I guess I could go look it up, but I will just unsubscribe and help out at Stack Overflow instead.
    Good luck,
    Jason

    Please see how much I used to help out on these forums.
    I'm outa here, but not before I complain about your dictatorial behaviour.
    Censorial nazi idiot.
    [The entire message above has now been redacted].
    That's the end of the relevant part of the thread.
    Clearly I wish to speak to you about this censorship your moderator is choosing to undertake.
    Firstly, let me say that I understand the perception that forums require moderation. Personally I think this position is of dubious merit, but so be it: it's a common practice. And I generally understand when I see things that have been moderated, or when a moderator step in and advises that they consider someone's wording contravenes forum guideline. I understand all this.
    However.
    I think the behaviour of your moderator in this situation is unacceptable. Let me elaborate.
    Firstly, The highlighted comment of Jason's was removed. This comment stated - correctly - that the correct spelling of ColdFusion is as one word, as per his guidance. This comment was censored/redacted by your moderator. For the life of me, applying my most "socially modest" mindset, I cannot see what was wrong with Jason's comment, and why it needed any follow-up on any description. It was accurate advice.
    The original poster's response to Jason was indeed a bit gratuitous, but - really - so what? No-one is taking offence here, and there's nothing anyone reasonable could take offence at. The person is just being a bit childish in their response. And, I hasten to add, at their own expense, I think. I see not reason to have redacted what they said.
    We now come to my responses. One entire response I made was redacted (I've only just noticed this, whilst proofreading this letter).  A number of tracts was redacted from my own initial post on the thread. Here I was simply explaining why Jason said what he did, and why it's good advice. And it was good advice. Your moderator here has removed both good advice, and an explanation as to why it was good advice. Again, I cannot fathom why your moderator has done this.
    Following on from this I back-up Jason's assertion that the original post was inadequate on detail for us to help. This too is accurate. I reiterated this to try to make the origial poster see that Jason wasn't simply being unhelpful - to the contrary - pointing out we need more information before we can help is very good initial advice here. Advice that has now been deleted.
    Next is some slightly contentious wording on my part, I suppose... at least if one doesn't actually read what I say, instead simply zooming in on one word and assessing it out of context. I pointed out that being abusive and writing in all-caps is unnecessary, and makes the person look like a dick. Note I didn't say the person was a dick (that would be abuse... very mild though), I was saying that given the behaviour the person was engaging in, they could be perceived that way. Which is... accurate. And saying someone is a dick and suggesting they could be perceived as a dick are two different things. One is ad hominem attack (bad), one is simply an observation / guidance (not bad).
    At this point Jason drew my attention to this censorship going on. And this is another thing that I think is inappropriate on the part of the moderator. I have little problem with them thinking that content on this thread needs censorship (whilst they are wrong, they are entitled to their opinion), to silently and anonymously redact people's posts is an inappropriate - and to be frank cowardly - handling of this situation. If the moderator has an issue with something written on the forums, the courteous and professional thing to do would be to advise the participants that they have overstepped. This would give us a chance to remediate the situation, or to simply disagree. Simply excising someone's work - because this is volunteer work we are engaging in here - is unacceptable.
    If anything ought to have been censored from the thread it was my last comment. Whilst it was accurate, I did use harsh sentiment, I accept this. However in the given situation, I don't think I have been the most out-of-line participant in proceedings.
    I would like you to remediate this situation, and here is how I would like you to do it.
    Restore Jason's original post. There was no reason to censor it.
    Restore grazan's all-caps post. It was doing no harm.
    Restore my second post (not the one laughing at Jason's joke, the longer one I discuss above). Again, useful and accurate information was removed from this post, and there was simply no reason to have had done so.
    You can leave my last comment redacted. Fair enough. Whilst I stand by what I said, it is unhelpful in the context of the thread.
    I also want the moderator to be censured, and I would like them to apologise for their behaviour, by posting on that thread explaining that they understand their behaviour was inappropriate and unacceptable.
    If they are a community volunteer, they should be dismissed from their position. They are clearly not capable of fulfilling this role in a professional, well-balanced manner.
    If they are an Adobe staff person, then the censure will have to be sufficient, although I think they should be relieved from their duties as a forum moderator, as they are not up to the task at hand.
    Talk to your other moderators and advise them they need to act with a sense of balance and professionalism when moderating the forums.
    In return, I will continue my participation on the forums, and continue to help the ColdFusion community members where I can, in the spirit of goodwill and co-operation. I will also try to convince Jason to do the same.
    If you cannot see right to resolve this situation appropriate, I will surrender my membership of the forums and cease helping your community.
    You can reply to me either via a comment against this post, or via email ([email protected]). That said, see the caveats in my communications policy: I reserve the right to publish any communications on this topic as I see fit (within the bounds of common sense).
    Thanks for your time.
    Adam Cameron

    Adam,
    Comments from a kindred spirit...
    I suggest you take a breather and go do something else for a few days or weeks.  Don't stomp your feet and say "I'm done for good, I won't be back", because like it or not, some of the reason you're here is to benefit YOU, and if you do go cold turkey you'll miss that benefit.
    In other words, "never say never".
    Like you, I have been extremely frustrated by the running of the forum from time to time as well.  Sometimes it's the quality of the forum software, sometimes it's the mix of other immature people who comment, sometimes it's just me.  Usually it's not the moderation or actual running of the forum, but I do understand where you're coming from.
    I have benefited greatly on several occasions just by taking a vacation from forum participation.
    We all have to understand two things:
    1.  We're able to communicate here by the good graces of Adobe, who are first and foremost a business, trying to achieve their business goals.  They'd rather not upset all the idiots, because unfortunately idiots have money to spend too.
    2.  Nobody's perfect.
    I'm not sure about the specifics, but the moderators are generally also volunteers.  See item 2 above.
    Hope you don't choose to stop contributing to the community, as no matter what, your contribution is good for the world.

  • ORM in Adobe ColdFusion 9  for  flex developers

    What advantage does the
    ORM in Adobe ColdFusion 9
    Have for flex developers as Flash builder 4 does so much of that for us nowadays

    What is nice about it is the AIR support, imho, so that you can do object-oriented database management with a SQLite database on the client without having to have a server. The actual ORM swc that comes with CF9 is placed in the Flex library and then no more having to write inordinately complex queries to accomplish simple things; you simply update objects' properties like you would with a typical object in FLEX. In addition, if you're using the ORM framework and want to build an application that allows users to easily update a remote database with data worked on offline, it's built in. As you probably know, there are several ORM frameworks out there already, but this appears to be the one Adobe is going with so it's worth a shot with the hope of long-term support, as opposed to some of the others which are not supported or rather stale.

  • How to set a form field in pro so an 'adobe reader' user can insert a jpg (not a pdf) as an image. It used to work but now doesn't.

    I think this question has been asked a million times before but I'm hoping something has been resolved now! It did work for me and my client a few months ago (by using the 'event.target.buttonImportIcon();' script. I'm 99% certain it worked fine a few months ago, where the adobe reader user could select a jpg to insert...but now it only allows a pdf. Does anyone know if anything can be done? I know you may say LiveCycle but is there really nothing else?
    Thanks in advance.

    There's nothing to solve. If Reader (XI only) is used only PDF files can be selected. This is how it's supposed to work (although I agree it's silly and should be changed).

  • CS2 will not open. Greeted with "Your Adobe Photoshop user name...

    CS2 will not open. Greeted with message "Your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization, or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit." I click OK and PS closes. I've been using this regestered copy on this PC (running Vista 32) for years (daily or at least weekly) without problem until today. Any ideas on how I can get it working again? I have disc somewhere? Thank you.

    Unfortunately your cs2 disc is no good except for the things such as the goodies or extras that came on the cd, because adobe disabled the activation servers for cs2 products.
    You can try this:
    (in other words something removed the info from the windows registry)

    Use just the photoshop cs2 download and serial on that page.

  • Creating PDF interactive image fields for Adobe Reader users

    I Need to create image fields to PDF flyers that Adobe Reader users can click on to import JPG/EPS image files and print out. I've seen this done on a PC using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7. My system is Mac OS 10.3.9 using the Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium. Since LiveCycle is a PC program only, I find I'm limited to creating live text fields only. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

  • How to enable commenting for Adobe Reader users--missing menu option?

    According to the help file, I can enable commenting in Acrobat Pro X so that Adobe Reader users can use annotation and commenting tools.  The help file says:
    "In an open PDF, choose Comments > Enable For Commenting In Adobe Reader, and then save the PDF.:"
    However, all is see on my menubar is:
    According to the help file, I *should* see something like the following:
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat Pro X.  I have installed Acrobat Pro X on a machine that has never had Acrobat Pro installed on it.  Each time I see only the shortened version of menu options.
    So, why do I only see File, Edit, View, Window and Help?  Where are  the other menu items, such as Comments, Forms, Tools, etc?  Is there  something I need to do to enable them?

  • "Adobe ColdFusion 10" can't be opened. You should eject the disk image.

    Hello,
    Dowloaded Coldfusion from the Adobe website, both with Safari as with Firefox
    I want to install Coldfusion 10 on my Macbook. OS X 10.7.4 ( so not 10.8 ). When I double click the
    .dmg file , I always get "“Adobe ColdFusion 10” can’t be opened. You should eject the disk image." error. Never had this before. I've read about setting security on 'non signed packages', but this applies to 10.8.
    Is this a known issue ?

  • I have problem with Adobe ColdFusion Server Manager.

    I have a problem with Adobe ColdFusion Server Manager when you log on and connect to the server. An advantage of the settings do not load.

    When I see others screen cuts of CF Server Manager here:
    http://www.coldfusionjedi.com/index.cfm/2009/10/21/Quick-example-of-Diff-within-the-ColdFu sion-Server-Manager
    http://forta.com/blog/index.cfm/2009/7/6/Simplified-ColdFusion-Server-Management
    the Errors View button display’s the yellow ! sign. Without a better guide I just thought that is a normal button icon until I noticed Charlie comment earlier in the thread and I thought hold up that is not normal.
    As it is when I press Errors View I get “no error” which might be because there is none or just simply not giving meaningful details as per some other CF Server Manager limitations previously noticed in other threads on forum here.
    I just hope some of that helps the original post to do with the display of the settings on left side. Maybe a better look at the error might help? Does anything get logged in CFadmin UI > Debugging & Logging > Log Files that relates to issue?
    Regards, Carl.

  • Demo of Adobe Presenter User Interface?

    Before we go and spend the time to create our own in Captivate, does any have, or know where I can find, a demo of/tutorial for the Adobe Presenter user interface? We'd like to have our learners go through the demo/tutorial before they use an Adobe presentation for the first time, so that they'll know how to use the slide controls and the tabs in the user interface (and, thus, be able to control their viewing experience better, like being able to use the slide controls to pause the presentation if they want to spend more time on a slide or use the tabs to skip slides or search for specific information).
    TIA for any info!
    Laura

    That's closer to what I'm looking for (although with some actually descriptions/explanations and covering all three tabs, just the main navigation/slide controls, and no need to highlight/explain anything within the slides themselves). But you're definitely on the right track, in terms of it being a demo/tutorial for the end-user, not the developer.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond!

Maybe you are looking for
