CF8 cfthread, server monitor, and active threads

When I run this code:
cfthread
part III or any cfthread without a thread join and then go to
the CF Administrator -> Server Monitor -> Statistics ->
Active ColdFusion Threads, I don't see the threads ever going away.
They just build and build everytime I run it. I can get it to
go all the way up to 400+ threads and stay there untill I restart
Jrun. I think this is a monitor issue because I'd hate to think
those threads are tied up and still active.
Thoughts?

Neo,
I have noticed the same thing. Now for the odd part. If you
click the 'start monitoring' button and then run your thread test,
the threads don't appear in the Active Coldfusion Thread report!
When running our application, I noticed the Coldfusion thread
count getting up to 80,000+ threads in the span of a couple of
hours. If we can't figure out what is causing this, we are going to
downgrade back to CF7

  • Server Monitor and servermgr_xserve retain count in system.log

    We've got 4 Xserves G5s on 10.5.4 all exhibiting this behavior. As soon as we open Server Monitor, we get this message in the log files repeatedly:
    Jul 3 10:28:46 krusty servermgrd[55]: --Module servermgr_xserve's response has retain count of 1.
    Jul 3 10:29:16: --- last message repeated 2 times ---
    It doesn't seem to have any impact on the performance or the server stability so I just ignore it, but I don't want to miss something important if it gets lost in all of these seemingly unimportant messages. Has anyone seen similar behavior and know of a way to stop this logging (short of closing Server Monitor)?

    Did you set up this Xserve as it came from Apple, or did you take an existing 10.5.x image and lay it onto the Xserve? The latter may not have the relevant components in the image... hwmond is an Xserve-only component.

  • Remote Panel server monitoring and control by multiple users

    Hi . . . ..
                  I just did what is in below attached image. . . . Now I have to control as well as monitor the VI file which is in server PC. But If I supposed to use below steps(please refer image), the clients can be control the VI seperately. But the status of each client cannot be monitored by server PC. I used another way that is "Non-reentrant" option... But its provide controlling by queue manner. . . . .
    My question is, is there any possible to control the server VI at a time by all clients. . . .?
    Please guide me for this... I am very much thankful about this. .. .. ..

  • CF8 Flash forms nor server monitor not working on authenticated server

    Have bee troubleshooting an issue with the server monitor and
    flash forms not working on a CF8 server that is completely
    authenticated. You can see the full thread of the issue here
    http://groups.google.com/group/houcfug/browse_thread/thread/71160184e762587f?hl=en
    In the pre-cf8 days, we had implemented the following "fix"
    for NT Authentication with CF Templates
    http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_18516
    However, when I uncheck the "Check that file exists" flag in
    IIS6, both the server monitor and the CFFORM type = flash are now
    both working. Am I making a tradeoff between NT security and
    Flash/Flex?
    My question is this, is the "fix" referenced in the KB
    article abonve still needed for CF8?
    If so, do I have to decide between security and Flash/Flex or
    is there a way to have both NT security and flash/flex on the
    server?
    If not, I would suggest that somebody from Adobe make an edit
    to the KB article pointing out that the "Fix" is not needed for CF8
    and if implemented will break the server monitor and flash forms
    and Flex on that CF server.
    Thanks,

    I mean when I open the administrator and click on Launch
    Server Monitor it does nothing. Does not open and as far as I can
    tell no error is generated or logged. If I open it outside of the
    the administrator it opens but when I click on Statistics or Alerts
    I get a logon Server Monitor logon box that tells me that the
    ColdFusion Server is not started.

  • Server monitor : my turn

    Like other people, i would like to manage my xserve remotely (like the advertisement promise).
    ===
    configuration :
    * xserve 1.1
    * os server 10.4.10 (8R2218b)
    * LOM Revision 1.2.7
    * only one ethernet port used,
    * in the etc/hostconfig, the hostname is -AUTOMATIC-
    * i did not configure the LOM initially (because i did'nt ask for a specific ip adress dedicated for LOM at this time). My provider gave me then a specific adress for LOM on the same subnet.
    * dns and reverse dns for the server and LOM are configured by the provider and work fine,
    * I configured the LOM like 'defor' advised in his Aug 22, 2007 post in
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=940740&tstart=0
    * I did shutdown/disconnect/reconnect power/power on.
    ===
    Problems are :
    1) malfunction of server monitor localy (via vnc)
    Server Monitor shows Name = localhost, IP=127.0.01 : is it ok ? .
    It gives informations about the hardware but :
    = i cannot write email adresses into the "edit notification panel". The "Add" button remains grey.
    = the "restart button" doesn't work... "Failed to contact server".
    2) no remote server monitor.
    From my Mac book Pro (localized French)
    I notice that in the list : 'Nom' is empty and 'Adress IP' is correct (writing the IP or the name) and the status remains 'Attente de reponse'
    3) ipmitool
    ipmitool -U [myLOMadminaccount] -H [LOMIP] chassis power status
    ask for password,
    wait 3 seconds and return nothing (the prompt)...the same for others commands
    but "sudo ipmitool -v -v user list 1" gives well the 2 accounts (1 ADMINISTRATOR, 1 USER)
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Happy news from my system :
    I went to the data center yesterday to try different configurations of LOM but first applied the Xserve Firmware Update 1.0.
    A "power off/disconnect power cord (and ethernet cable, why, not ?) dance " and bingo :
    1) Server monitor on my MacBook connects to the xserve,
    2) I can add an email notification,
    3) i can restart the xserve from my laptop.
    But... it's not complete...
    The history log shows (translating from french) every x minutes : three times 'unable to contact the server' then 'connection lost' then, after few seconds the update time is refreshed as the elapse live time of the xserve in the "infos" panel :
    Is-it a real update or a fake ?
    To be sure (silly question ?), is it possible to simulate a xserve problem in the scope of server monitor (and test the notification by email) ?
    Admin server has the same problem : connection lost after x minutes

  • HOW TO: Relay/Send email from websites, Server Monitor in OS 10.5 Server

    If you don't want to run your own mail server or configure DNS on your Xserve, but you still want your website or applications like Server Monitor to send email notifications; this is what you need to do:
    Scenario: Mac OS 10.5.2 Leopard - Advanced Configuration - Setup is for strictly sending emails through SMTP, routed through your ISP or another provider. This is not for receiving emails.
    -Open up Server Admin
    If you have yet to add in a server to admin, you need to do so. Resource PDFs on setting up OS X Server are available at Apple http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/ and there are video tutorials at http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=373
    -Click on your server, then choose the Settings button
    -Then choose Services from the Tabs/Buttons below
    -Select the Mail checkbox and then hit Save
    -Now choose the newly added Mail service in the left pane, then click the Settings button up top
    -Start with the Advanced tab. Under Security, un-check everything and don't use SSL unless you want to. You don't need to mess with the other sub-tabs here.
    -Next choose the Logging Tab. Under SMTP log level, choose debug so you will be able to see what goes on in the log.
    -Mailing List, Quotas and Filters tabs can go untouched. You can mess with them later if you want.
    -Click the Relay tab. It is a good idea to only accept relays from your local machine. If you uncheck this, I believe it leaves you with an open relay that anybody can access.
    -Now for the General Tab. Under Domain Name put anything you want. Any made up name and extension is fine.
    Under Host Name, again put anything you want.
    Un-check Enable POP, Un-check Enable IMAP - Basically un-check everything
    Check or leave checked Enable SMTP
    Now check Relay outgoing mail through host:
    Then enter your hosts SMTP server. ex. smtpout.secureserver.net
    Now check Authenticate to relay with user name: and enter your username and password
    -Now hit the Save button
    -Now we need to take a look at the main.cf file and add a few things
    -If you aren't showing all files in Finder already, open up Terminal.app
    Now type in: defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles True
    Hit enter
    Now type in: killall Finder
    Now Finder should reset and all files should be visible - To hide all files, do the same thing but type False
    -Now open Macintosh HD and navigate to /private/etc/postfix/main.cf (Note: you won't be able to open and edit this in TextEdit. I recommend a program like TextWrangler http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/download.shtml )
    -Once you have main.cf open, all your settings should be together at the bottom of the doc. Scroll down. You will need to add in a few lines and verify all the settings are exactly as below (except of course your own names and SMTP server):
    readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix
    mydomain_fallback = anything.anyting
    messagesizelimit = 0
    myhostname = anything.anything
    mailbox_transport = cyrus
    mydomain = anything.anything
    mailboxsizelimit = 0
    enableserveroptions = yes
    inet_interfaces = all
    relayhost = smtpout.secureserver.net
    smtpsasl_passwordmaps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd
    smtpsasl_authenable = yes
    smtpdsasl_authenable = no
    smtpsasl_securityoptions =
    smtpduse_pwserver = no
    smtpdrecipientrestrictions = permitmynetworks,reject_unauthdestination,permit
    smtpdpw_server_securityoptions = none
    -Now save the main.cf document
    -Now go back to Macintosh HD and navigate to /private/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd
    Open passwd with TextWrangler or you editing app, and verify that your SMTP server, username and password are correct. It should look something like this:
    smtpout.secureserver.net [email protected]:password
    -This should be what you entered in Server Admin when you first started. If all is well, quit your editing app.
    -Now, while you are still at /private/etc/postfix/sasl/passwd you need to edit permissions for passwd
    You can chmod in Terminal.app or secondary click on passwd and "Get Info"
    Click the lock and enter your password to unlock the settings
    Next click the + button and add yourself and Admin
    -Now you can close out of everything and go back to Server Admin
    -Hit the Reload (twisty arrow) button at the bottom and once everything is reloaded, hit Start Mail
    -Now type localhost in your browser to see if your website can send email. You can also open up other apps such as Server Monitor and do something to change the status to have it send an email.
    -You can click on Mail in the Server Admin and then view the SMTP log. As long as emails are being sent and then removed from the queue, you are in good shape. If you are getting an SASL error or mechanism error, open up main.cf and verify your settings and/or check permissions on passwd file

    Don't you need the Mail service running to have apps like Server Monitor send email notifications? - Also for hosted sites that use the sendmail function you need a service running to get the emails sent.
    Really you are not hosting a Mail server. It is open, but there is no incoming and if you only accept SMTP relays from the local machine, there should be no issues.

  • Server Monitor Buttons Missing

    The Monitoring, Profiling and Memory Tracking buttons are all missing from the Server Monitor and it is not displaying any data. Where did they go? I'm on CF9/Multi-server and Windows Server 2008/64 bit. My CF server instances are running under a domain account so they can get to network shares. I'm using multiple jvm.config files to give some servers more memory than others. I've tried adding the domain account to the Administrators group, made sure monitoring, profiling and memory tracking are all enabled, and made sure the crossdomain.xml file is in the webroot.

    Well, first briefly, I've seen this happen (the start/stop buttons don't appear), where simply refreshing the page made them reappear.
    Assuming you've confirmed that doesn't solve it, here are some questions that may help us hone in on the problem:
    - does this happen on all the instances or just one?
    - you say you are on CF9. Do you mean 9 or 9.0.1?
    - Have you applied any hotfixes or cumulative hotfixes? (And I'd ask you to confirm that not from memory but from confirming by looking in the lib\updates directory. On Multiserver, that's \servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib\updates for the cfusion instance, or \servers\instancename\cfusion.ear\cfusion.war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib\updates for any others (note change from - to . in the ear/war directory names).
    - Are the hotfixes there the right ones for the version you're running (not 900 in the filenames if you're running 9.01, or vice-versa)
    - When you say it's "not displaying any data", do you mean that the graphs on the front page are essentially blank? That would mean simply that "start monitoring" has not yet been enabled. When you say "no data", I'd want to make sure you don't mean that none of the screens show anything. There are many that show data even if there are none of the "start" buttons enabled, such as the Template Cache Status page (on the Statistics tab, in the "Request Statistics" section). Is that "displaying data"? Just trying to help clarify your situation.
    Also, just as a workaround until you do solve this, note that if you're on 9.01, you can now at least turn the buttons on and off in the CF Admin, something that's gone under the radar for many, it seems.
    Hope that's helpful.

  • XServe + Server Monitor = "Waiting for response"

    I have 5 Xserves. All are running 10.4.6 Server. One of them I am able to connect to via Server Monitor. I have done a bit of searching the forums and can't find anyone with a similar problem. What can I look for to start troubleshooting this?
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the response.
    XServes are on different subnets. The one I am able to connect with I can connect with no matter what subnet I am on. I cannot talk with any of the others regardless of which subnet I am on.
    Admin tools are a fresh installation (recently reinstalled system) MacBook Pro, fully updated.
    I am trying to connect to the servers via >server>add server and entering their IP addresses in. I can connect to the servers via Remote Desktop, as well as with AFP shares. The servers are working correctly, with the exception of my inability to use the Server Monitor.
    I also cannot seem to use the Server monitor locally on the machine. If I run Server Monitor and try to connect to the server via 127.0.0.1 or via it's internal IP address, I get the same "Waiting for response" message.

  • Server Monitor "Waiting for response" Forever! But localhost is OK

    I am having trouble getting Server Monitor running on my MacBook to connect to our new Intel Xserve. Feeding it either the IP address or the host name gets the same message: "Waiting for response" and nothing more. I have no trouble a t all access the same server using Server Admin on the same MacBook. So it ddoes not seem to be a DNS issue or even an ethernet issue. I am not running any firewires (that I know of either). This is a brand new server and I have never even started most services yet, just hooked it up to an Xraid. I also have (4) ethernet ports. But I get the same results by plugging the WAN into either of the ports. Is there a bug with Server Monitor and the Intel Xserves?

    Well the MAC addresses of my LOM's seem to be sequential to the two builtin ethernet ports. Assign each LOM an IP number. Then, on another computer, try to change it's IP to the same thing as the LOM. You should get an error message saying that the IP # is already in use by aonther MAC address. You guessed it, that Other MAC address should be the LOM. This is how I found out mine. The 1 port ended with a 4, the 2 port ended with a 5, the LOM 1 ended with a 6 and the LOM 2 ended with a 7.
    HOWEVER, after days of messing with this stuff, I have not gotten the LOM to work. Tried all the tricks too, even the ones Apple won't tell you like unplugging the whole computer for 30 seconds and stuff. After all that messing around I have somehow damaged the servers ability to work with Apple Remote Desktop. The server appears in the list fine, but when you try to access it, ARD can never connect. I guess I will have to completely rebuild this server on Monday. It's faster than finding what's corrupt now. I'm not impressed with the Intel servers at all. I hate all this new LOM stuff and I don't like the mounting hardware either. I think they took a step backwards this time. Stop trying to make Sun servers. If I wanted a Sun, I'd buy a Sun. I want an Apple, because it's easy to use. At least they WERE easy to use. Anybody want to trade a dual Intel 3.0 for a dual G5???? I'm giving up on the LOM thing now. I will just use ARD to run Server Monitor on the machine as local. This is the only way to get info on the INtel serverrs it seems. Bummer. Silly that I trust my G4 Xserver much more than the Intel.

  • Server Monitor shows blank locations after update

    This a refurb xserve 2.8 single processor, 16 gigs of RAM, no raid, LOM firmware 1.1.2.
    If I reset LOM to "factory defaults" and erase and install Server OS 10.5.4. LOM shows the various locations under "Memory", "Drives","Power","Network", "Temperature", and "Blowers".
    As it should.
    However once I upgrade the OS to 10.5.7 using the "combo updater", Server Monitor no longer displays any locations under Power, Network, Temperature, and Blowers.
    I have deleted the plists for Server Monitor and the BMC cache file but still no locations.
    I have gone round and round with this and have been able to duplicate it. It seems to hinge on the 10.5.7 update and updating directly from 10.5.4.
    I have found if I install the Server Admin Tools 10.5.6v1.1 after the combo 10.5.7 update then Server Monitor displays correctly. I can then install the Server Admin Tools 10.5.7 and have full functionality of Server Monitor.

    OK, I get it..... You need a Lights Out Management port to run Server Monitor, and there's no way to set that up on our little experimental Intel Mini running Snow Leopard Server.
    So this shouldn't be an issue when we install Snow Leopard Server on our production Xserve 8-core Xeon. Good to know.

  • Server Monitor Notification will NOT accept an outgoing email address

    Hi folks. I have a new XServer Xeon. Everything is working great, except for one maddening issue: When I use Server Monitor and go to set up notifications, the "send to" field will NOT accept any input at all...whether it's a bonafide email address or just any old text typing. Nada. I can seem to enter all other info like the "from" field, and the buttons work....just can't add any addresses to send notifications to. Any ideas? I'm hoping this is a "duh" moment for me and not a real issue.
    Thanks!

    Daddy
    I have quite a few Xserve's (G4, G5) running Email notification from Server monitor without mail services running.
    It appears to be a problem with the new Intel's version of Server monitor, I cannot get SM to accept any email addresses either, it will also not remember other settings between launches.
    I have submitted a bug report with Appple through ADC on this.
    FYI if you setup lights out management on another IP on Xserve and connect server monitor to that IP from another machine you can add email addresses but when hardware events occur on Xserve no emails are sent!
    So IMHO server monitor V1.5 is broken right now, only good for manually monitoring the hardware.
    If I get an answer from Apple I will post it in this category

  • What is a "logged in user" on the "Active Sessions" report in CF8 Server Monitor?

    I was looking at the Active Sessions Report (The Chart View) and saw I have more "logged in users" than "active sessions".
    I had expected them to be nearly the same.    It's on our Intranet where I log users in (using cflogin and cfloginuser) at the begining of their session and users should be logged when the session ends.
    I couldn't find a detailed explaination of what a "logged in user" means.   There is a chance that the same user is logged into a nested application as well as the Intranet, but I don't think that is what I'm seeing.
    I also don't see a way to get a list of what CF is counting as a logged in user.  I can only see a way to get the total count.
    Any help is appreciated. 
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Thank you Michael for the reply, but I don't think that is the issue.
    When a user opens their browser on the intranet, a session begins and they are logged in (using the cflogin and cfloginuser).    If they close their browser, the session should hang around for 20 min. (per the server setting).   I am assuming this is still considered an "Active Session" since I can see this behavior in the report.
    At first, the Active Sessions and Logged In Users are exactly the same.   When the sessions start to time out, the active sessions are reduced,  but the Logged In Users remain the same.    Then,  after a while, they start to move together.  So I have more Logged In Users than Active Sessions.
    I left the Server Monitor open last night and for most of the night, I had 0 sessions, but 57  "logged in users".   This morning, as people opened their browsers, the Active Sessions and Logged In Users moved together.   The gap of 57 looks consistent.
    It looks like people are remaining logged in after their session ended.
    I am really looking for a detailed explaination of "active session" and/or "logged in user" as used in the server monitor.  It would be really nice to find a way to list the details about each item counted in the "logged in user" and not just the total count. 
    Thanks Again for your reply.

  • RE: ActiveX control and Active Server Pages?

    Martin, if it works in standalone VB program but not in an .asp page
    through VBScript, I guess the reason may be the type mismatch on the
    parameters of the ActiveX automation methods. VBScript is a subset of VB
    and only supports the OLE data type VARIANT for calling the OLE
    interface. The Conductor ActiveX control probably requires the actual
    data types, such as long, BSTR, and so on, to be used on the parameters.
    As a result, VBScript cannot call the methods on the control. One
    workaround you can try is to create your own ActiveX control which is
    simply a wrapper for calling the Conductor control. Its parameter types
    use VARIANT and you do the data conversion in your wrapper code. Hope
    this helps.

    I don't have 6.1 in front of me now. I came up with a workaround for my application when I encounted this problem. I created an attribute node for the container and the tab control. Whenever the tab control was not on the page with the control, I made the container invisible. This then hid the activeX control.

    RocknOats
    Wanted to update you on my situation with this.
    So far 8 hours have gone by and I have not had a screen blackout.
    FIRST I did the Hardware Test. TWICE on the extended test, the instructions on the KB Article explain. It took almost 3 hours, but while the test was running, both times, my computer screen did not go black.
    I did get an error message, both times. Different each time. I looked up both of the error messages on discussion boards. Lots of conflicting info
    One good thread said my first error was that my hard drive was bad and would probably fail.
    The next error message I researched said that a fan was bad or needed replacement.
    (information comes from other folks on discussion boards, not from Apple or technician)
    Not sure what exactly those 2 error messages indicate but I followed a thread where someone found a solution by doing the following. So far it's worked.
    After Hardware Test I did a shutdown and an SMC resest. Unplugged computer power source from wall and computer for about 10 minutes.
    Finally after a restart  I downloaded "SMC Fan Control" (CNET Downloads has a nice safe copy you can download)
    There is a temperature monitor and from what I've read so far, keeping the CPU temperature under 50˚C is ideal. Making sure your fans and computer is in a well ventilated area/room too of course.
    The SMC Fan Control helps you set your own speeds on the fans and so far everything has been going normal.

  • Upgrading from 7 to 9 and server monitor

    We just upgraded from cf7 to cf9 and are getting a message in the server monitor that is is unavailable in this version. Our server is Windows 2003 and IIS6 with the standard edition.
    It appears to be the issue covered by this tech note
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/527/cpsid_52797.html
    The files in the tech note though are for cf8, which we never had, so I'm not sure if it will work (and I'm a bit leery to experiment on a production server).

    We did not do a 30 day trial install, if that is what you mean.
    We did make a clone of the production server (since it is a vm) and installed it. The server monitor was not something we looked it. Our configuration has some quirks in that we process htm and html requests thru cold fusion. So that was the main focus and debugging nature of our testing. We also had some data source issues.
    The server monitor is something we didn't have in 7, so I was just "checking it out" now that we are live on production.
