CF9, IIS7.5, CFImage, /CFFileservlet/, Handler Mapping, URL Rewrite

I am trying to figure out how to enable the default handler in II7 like it was done in IIS6, with the "Verify file exisits" option turned off.
In IIS7 I have been lead to "Invoke handler only if request is mapped to:" however if that is unchecked, no static files (css, js, etc) are served.

Are you sure that your tag meets all of the requirements? Check out the documentation here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/CFMLRef/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbec22c24-79 45.html
Specifically for captcha that article mentions:
For the CAPTCHA image to display, the width value must be greater than: fontSize times the number of characters specified in text times 1.08.
ColdFusion supports CAPTCHA images in PNG format only.
I believe the images generated from the cfimage tag are also served up from a differently location than your web-root.
Is your server allowing the PNG file extension? With your URL rewrite rule are you still seeing the request reach IIS (iis log)? Is it reaching ColdFusion (coldfusion log)? Is your server allowing access to the directory where the generated image is stored (view the browser source code when it works to see where the image is actually stored)?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the rule was not processing for SharePoint 2013 result page.
Please make sure you add the reverse rewriting rule correctly.

Captcha Handler Mapping in IIS7

What is the handler mapping needed in IIS 7.x to produce CAPTCHA images? The only one that works seems to be the wildcard, which is rediculous from a security point of view. In tightening the security of ColdFusion according to the lockdown guide at http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/whitepapers/pdf/91025512_cf9_lockdownguide_wp_ue. pdf, they recommend to remove this wildcard mapping, but that seems to break captcha.

Drive Utility Help Viewer "does not know how to handle selected URL"

I have Drive Utility 10.5.6, according to . I'm trying to reformat a FAT32 partition on an external drive to Mac OS X Ext. Journaled in preparation for using SuperDuper to back up my Mac HD boot partition. For a time, which seems to have passed, now that erasing the partition has been done. The Disk Utility Help wouldn't work. Instead of putting up topic information, I got a message saying "Help Viewer does not know how to handle selected URL", followed by an reference to an html file that allegedly existed inside a set of folders inside the app. Where, of course, Finder cannot see. Once the erasing was done, Help seems to have come back. I tried Apple Support, but could only get a reference to OS 9 Appleworks macros not working in OS X. No help at all. Is this a question? I don't know. Help is working now. But for a while it was very annoying. It must be one of those little windows glitches that no one ever bothered to fix.

In order to change a FAT or NTFS formatted drive for use with OS X you will need to do the following:
Extended Hard Drive Preparation
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
If you have an Intel Mac and can partition the drive using GUID then you can have FAT32 and OS X partitions on the same drive.
As for problems with the Help viewer see:
In most cases doing the following will restore the Help Viewer:
1. Trash the following three files, if extant:
/Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.help.plist
/Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpui.plist
/Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist
2. Trash the /Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpui folder.
3. Empty the Trash and Restart.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on the Help Viewer for additional suggestions.

How to handle invalid URLs in the requests

Currently JSF ignores invalid characters in the request URLs like "|" or "<script>". These characters can be a security issue and can lead to "Cross site scripting" issue.
I am trying to parse the request URLs and then redirect the user to the error page if the URL contains such invalid characters.
Is there a better way of handling such characters in the URL?
One way that i have thought of is to implement the PhaseListener and handle the URLs in the "Restore view" phase but the drawback in this
implementation is that the controll will come to this listener during all the phases of the JSF life cycle. I just want the request to be handled only once and not during all the phases of JSF.

Our application has too many customizations around the JSF framework and we have our own limitations extending the base "FacesServlet". It would be better if i can extend the listeners in the JSF framework.

[svn] 3048: Always map urls through the rootURL property, even for the non-proxy case.

Revision: 3048
Author: [email protected]
Date: 2008-08-29 15:40:17 -0700 (Fri, 29 Aug 2008)
Log Message:
Always map urls through the rootURL property, even for the non-proxy case. This might
change the behavior slightly if you set rootURL on HTTPService for the non-proxy case
as that would have been ignored in the current code path but it seem less consistent.
If rootURL is not set, it defaults to the swf's URL which should give the same relative
URL semantics we get today by default when rootURL is not set.

Of the second and third scripts, the latter could perhaps be deemed the "most secure"; however, it might block more than you want. If you really want to use one of those, then I'd suggest using the second script. Otherwise, I'd recommend that you take a look here. (I only slightly examined the first script.... I do not understand the language of the comments, and I'm no iptables whiz. )
Also, note that you don't have to use an actual script to set up the rules; rather, you can save the rules you want to a file that will be read by iptables automatically (/etc/iptables/iptables.rules). Here's a modified version of mine:
# /etc/iptables/iptables.rules
# These rules (and the commented instructions) derived from:
# http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=159661
*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [163:50538]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [40:2451]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [40:2451]
COMMIT
*filter
:INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:FIREWALL - [0:0]
:TRUSTED - [0:0]
-A INPUT -j FIREWALL
-A FORWARD -j DROP
-A FIREWALL -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A FIREWALL -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A FIREWALL -j TRUSTED
-A FIREWALL -j DROP
# put your own exceptions here, like so (replacing <tcp/udp> with either "tcp" or
# "udp" -- minus the quotes -- and <port number> with the port you'd like to open):
# -A TRUSTED -p <tcp/udp> -m <tcp/udp> --dport <port number> -j ACCEPT
COMMIT
Of course, there are benefits to keeping the rules in a script. For instance, you could then easily set the default iptables rules, allow all traffic, etc. Plus, some firewall-related things (such as the various echo commands in the scripts you provided) cannot (to my knowledge) be done by iptables alone.
If you already have a script that sets up the rules you would like to use, you can save yourself the hassle of creating a rules file by following the directions outlined here.

Sales & Marketing Online MapIt URL Maps feature for Addresses Google Maps

We recently enabled the MapIT URL functionality so our users can see street maps from Yahoo from Sales Online when they click on the Map it icon associated with all addresses in Sales and Marketing Online.
See Metalink 280542.1 for how to enable this in the Ebusiness Suite.
Two questions:
1. We would like to use Google Maps; does anyone know how this can be done?
2. Our business is in Australia. By default we hide Australia as a county on our addresses. This prevents us from seeing maps for addresses in Australia. Any body know a way around this?
Image for clarification can be found here: http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/90720/0/

Sorry mate looks like it is not straight forward change that you can make to use Google instead of Yahoo.
You may need to use Google Maps APIs and try to build your own URL and update the profile option.
I am hoping in next version of Oracle Apps has out of the box functionality to use Google maps.

There is no agent set up to handle mozconfig URLs

Hi,
Trying to run makepkg for firefox 3 from aur and I get this message;
There is no agent set up to handle mozconfig URLs Check /etc/makepkg.conf
What do I need to change/add?
Thanks

Thanks Tomk. It's compiling as I peck on the keyboard. BTW I noticed there's a version of forefox3 that requires cairo >= 1.5.? Where do we get that and in your opinion is it worth it?? And, yes, I do use a pair of LCD monitors.

Custom value handler mapping not instantiated

Hi,
Am using a custom value handler mapping which which gets inserted from a standalone client.
But whn i try to insert using the same in a aplpication server, I get the following error:
kodo.jdo.FatalUserException: Field "keyValue" declared custom mapping strategy "KeyHandler", but this strategy cannot be instantiated.
This error is seen while parsing the package.jdo within the container.

Hi Andy,
When you search ‘category’ in crawled properties(Central Administration->Search Service Application->Search Schema), you will see ows_Category is mapped to DiscussionCategory, like the screenshot:
So, I suggest you create a new column using another name, then test again, compare the result.

Google Maps URLs get corrupted when inserted into Numbers

I've noticed that Numbers doesn't like complex Google Maps URLs. Directions between any 2 points should work fine, but if you make a custom path like so:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=sd&saddr=9825Topanga+Canyon+Blvd,+Chatsworth,+CA+91311&daddr=Owensmouth+Ave+to:9451+corbin+av e+to:34.250264,-118.583765+to:Plummer+St+to:Variel+Ave+to:DevonshireSt&hl=en&geocode=Fe-ZCgIdVTXu-CnpxqLmxpzCgDHDDutQPA47UQ%3BFXq1CgIdMEju-A%3BFfB9C gIdlN3u-CmXlkTrcZvCgDER1wGVO-6aVg%3B%3BFaCACgIdU2u-A%3BFQCOCgIdb2ru-A%3BFU65CgIdbkju-A&mra=dpe&mrcr=1&mrsp=3&sz=14&via=1,3,5&sll= 34.251612,-118.583765&sspn=0.056331,0.079479&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=14
Some of the percent signs (%) get changed to %25 or whatever the proper HTML escape code is.
The funny thing is, these URLs are still valid Google Maps addresses, but now show different routes, generally in the same neighborhood!
Does anyone know how to force Numbers to accept a URL as is without modifying it?

As I explained yesterdays in an other thread, the problem is that you don't use Numbers correctly.
Inserting an URL as is in a cell is a wrongdoer.
The correct soluce is the use of the dedicated function : HYPERLINK()
=HYPERLINK("http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=sd&saddr=9825Topanga+Canyon+Blvd.+Chatsworth.+CA+91311&daddr=Owensmouth+Ave+to:9451+corbin+av e+to:34.250264.-118.583765+to:Plummer+St+to:Variel+Ave+to:DevonshireSt&hl=en&geocode=Fe-ZCgIdVTXu-CnpxqLmxpzCgDHDDutQPA47UQ%3BFXq1CgIdMEju-A%3BFfB9C gIdlN3u-CmXlkTrcZvCgDER1wGVO-6aVg%3B%3BFaCACgIdU2_u-A%3BFQCOCgIdb2ru-A%3BFU65CgI dbkju-A&mra=dpe&mrcr=1&mrsp=3&sz=14&via=1.3.5&sll=34.251612.-118.583765&sspn=0.0 56331.0.079479&ie=UTF8&t=h&z=14","googlemap")
With this formula all behave flawlessly.

IIS Reverse Proxy with URL rewrite.

Hi all, hoping to leverage the wealth of knowledge contained here.
Any assistance would be very welcome.
I'm having an issue getting a reverse proxy and URL rewrite working in IIS 7.0.
I need to redirect all requests with a specific virtual directory suffix only.
ie; https://domain.test.com/outbound/Content/query_etc
With /Outbound/ being the trigger.
This should be redirected to http://10.10.10.10/inbound/Content/query_etc
While at the same time, requests without the /outbound/ suffix should be handled locally.
I have configured the reverse proxy as described in a few articles, and have had no luck.
Here's a snippet from my (sanitized) web.config at the site level.
<rewrite>
<outboundRules>
<rule name="ReverseProxyOutboundRule1" preCondition="ResponseIsHtml1">
<match filterByTags="A" pattern="^http(s)?://10.10.10.10/inbound/(.*)" />
<action type="Rewrite" value="https://domain.test.com/outbound/{R:2}" />
</rule>
<preConditions>
<preCondition name="ResponseIsHtml1">
<add input="{RESPONSE_CONTENT_TYPE}" pattern="^text/html" />
</preCondition>
</preConditions>
</outboundRules>
<rules>
<rule name="ReverseProxyInboundRule1" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="^outbound/(.*)" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://10.10.10.10/inbound/{R:1}" appendQueryString="true" logRewrittenUrl="false" />
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>
To me, this looks correct, yet it doesn't work.
With this, I get the normal 404 - Error Code 0x80070002, with the text indicating the local directory doesn't exist, so.... not being picked up by the filter for redirection.

Hi Andrew,
Looking at your requirements it appears you need Reverse Proxy To Another Site/Server.
By using URL Rewrite Module together with
Application Request Routing module you can have IIS 7 act as a
reverse proxy.
It seems like URL Rewrite can't re-route the request somewhere else out of the server.
Even when you rewrite the url the actual connection remains with the server. Hence if your original server doesn't have /inbound/Content/query_etc it will fail with 404.
Hosting multiple domain names under a single account using URL Rewrite.
It’s a common desire to have a single IIS website that handles multiple sites with different domain names.

URL Rewriting in JSP/Servlets

Enabling URL rewriting for session support where cookies are switched off, results in the URL being rewritten as myURL/$SessionID$a_very_long_string.
I believe that the /$SessionID$ is configurable on the server, does anyone know how ?
OAS version 4.0.8.1. patched with JSP support.

Why is it placing a ';' before jsessionid ? Shouldn't
it be a '&'? The current result is a page not found.Your url looks ok to me. '&' seperates parameters. I'm using the Struts framework to handle those ugly details and it generates urls like this one for me:
http://localhost:8080/JspMini/main.jsp;jsessionid=C2C1C2D9C6106758047127038554C813
Looks like you have another problem...

Apache Url rewrite for portal URLs

Hi,
I have a requirement where i need to write simple URL's for the default portal uRL's
for example
inspite of using default url like "http://myserver:port/portal/server.pt/community/abc_xyz/123/efg_jkl/12345",
if user uses
"http://myserver:port/portal/server.pt/xyz"
It should navigate to same default URL.
Can somebody let me know how this can be achieved.
I know Url rewriting is done through Apache Url rewrites but do not have an idea how apache does it with portal Url's. What configurations need to be done in order to manage portal Url's with apache rewrites.
Thanks
Ajay

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for the reply. The link shows how to write the Rewrite rules in apache. I am familier with that. The actual problem is that how can the portal Url's be controlled by apache rewrites. My apache and weblogic are both on the same server instance but after writing the rewrite in httpd.conf file. It does not work out. Just want to know how can i tell apache to handle my portal Url's too.
Is there any specific entry that we need to make for doing this.
Thanks
Ajay

Apache URL rewrite

Hi,
To make iPlanet work with apache, documentation ask me to change
httpd.conf so that all request comes into apache will forward to
iPlanet.
But I need to use URL rewrite module of apache contains the rewrite rule
RewriteRule ^/lmp
/NASApp/delivery/servlet/delivery;jsessionid=%{QUERY_STRING} [PT,NS]
which means if URL contains /lmp then rewrite to iPlanet handler
/NASApp/...etc
any one had successfully configure apache mod_rewrite works with
iPlanet?
In my pervious experience with Tomcat apache. I realize I have to load
the web-server-plugin module before module rewrite module. But if I do
that with iAS. then i get 404 not found on request to servlet.
thanks

We use iPlanet and apache with mode_rewrite
Try this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteLog /usr/local/apache/logs/rewrite.log
RewriteLogLevel 1
# Rewrite Rules for App1
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^app1.company.de$
RewriteRule ^/ https://myiWS.company.de:8011/NASApp/app1/mystartup.jsp

CSM - url rewriting - possible?

Hi,
I'm searching through the docs and con't find simple and useful (i think) feature on CSM - url rewriting.
It's possible to map and bind to some policy, but I can't find any solution to rewrite an url coming to csm, and forwarding new one to server farm. Is it possible, if Yes what should I search for?
tia

not possible.
