Cfdirectory returns empty set despite full permissions?

I am porting a coldfusion application from 32-bit ubuntu to 64-bit and have run into an odd snag. For some reason, I am able to perform file operations in a directory but am completely unable to get a directory listing using cfdirectory.
The CF server is Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit running coldfusion mx7. It is joined to active directory using centrify express, and has the centrify samba package installed instead of regular samba. The directories in question actually reside on windows servers - Windows Server 2003 and 2008. The shares are mounted on the CF server using the following lines in fstab:
//server2003/share /network/server1/share smbfs _netdev,noperm,credentials=/root/.smbpasswd,uid=0,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
//server2008/share /network/server2008/share smbfs _netdev,noperm,credentials=/root/.smbpasswd,uid=0,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
 Coldfusion jrun process is running as root. The directories are browsable with no apparent problems when logged in via ssh. Coldfusion can create new files in directories with cffile, and FileExists works with one of the files I'm trying to list, but cfdirectory always returns an empty list. I tried using the undocumented FileInfo="name" option to avoid running java's stat() command, but that yielded an empty set as well.
After getting some advice on Experts Exchange, I tried getting a directory listing with java:
<cfset obj = createObject("java", "java.io.File").init(testPath)>
<cfoutput>
listRoots = #arrayLen(obj.listRoots())# 
listFiles = #arrayLen(obj.listFiles())#
</cfoutput>
... no dice. Empty result sets as before, though java could see that the parent directory was there, and obj.canRead() and obj.canWrite() both returned True.
I think I've already summarized all I've tried, but here's a link to the question thread on experts exchange, in case I missed something: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web_Development/Web_Languages-Standards/Cold_Fusion_Markup _Language/Q_27062231.html
I have no idea what's going on here... any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks!

Just to confirm: you're getting (basically ~) the same results with Java file operations as you are with CF's?
That being the case, you might be better of rephrasing your question on expert-sex-change to be more Java-centric: ultimately it'll be a Java issue, and the Java community is much bigger than CF's. Additionally, stackoverflow might be a better place to post?
Are you in the position to install a dev version of CF9 in the same environment and test if that works any better?

Why does the newest FF keep me signed in to websites when I log off despite being set to full time "private browsing"? This is a real problem on a shared computer!

Despite being set to full time "Private" mode, this latest version of FF keeps me logged into things like ebay etc.
This has never happened with previous versions and is a real problem.

EntryProcessor invokeAll returning empty ConverterMap{}

Hi All,
I am trying to write a custom entryprocessor and whatever I return from the invokeAll method in the entryprocessor, I am always getting a empty ConverterMap{}. The code for the entryprocessor is as below:
public class CustomEP implements PortableObject, EntryProcessor {
     public CustomEP (){
public Map processAll(Set entries) {
          Map results=new HashMap ();
results.put ("1", "1");
System.out.println("Inside process All method");
          return results;
public Object process(Entry arg0) {
          Map results=new HashMap ();
results.put ("1", "1");
System.out.println("Inside process method");
          return results;
The client code to invoke this entryprocessor is as below:
Map results=cache.invokeAll(AlwaysFilter.INSTANCE, new CustomEP());
The processAll method on the Coherence nodes is invoked but if the print the results on the client side it return empty ConverterMap{}
On the other hand, if I invoke process method of CustomEP as below:
Map results=(Map) cache.invoke(AlwaysFilter.INSTANCE, new CustomEP());
I get the desired results. Please help me with the details why it is happening this way when the return type of the processAll is a Map.
Thanks a lot!

S

Hi Robert and JK,
Thank you for your reply and time!
I could not find these details in any of the documentation that specifies keys passed in the result should be subset of the keys passed to the processAll method. Anyways, my problem is to invoke server-side code (avoid de-serialization) by passing a filter and then create a entirely new map (key and value will be different from the entries extracted from the passed filter) by reading the data from the passed entries. How can I implement it?
I am thinking to use aggregator as they are read-only and faster but again how to implement it using:
public Object aggregate(Set entries){
Again, I am getting an empty Map so is it necessary that the object returned should have keys matching the set of the entries passed to this method.
Secondly, there are other methods such as, finalizeResult() and init() if I extend AbstractAggregator, do I need to implement them and if yes, how? The entries set passed to the aggregate() method may not reside on the same node.
Please advise!
Regards,
SHi S,
the process() return value object, or the entry value objects in the map returned by processAll() can be arbitrary objects. So you just return a map from process(), and return a map as the entry value in the result map from processAll().
The AbstractAggregator has a fairly badly documented contract in the Javadoc (does not properly cover the values received in different scenarios for invocation). You should probably read the section about it in the Coherence book, that explains leveraging AbstractAggregator in significantly more details. It also happens to be in the sample chapter, but I recommend reading the entire book.
I am not sure about the issues relating to posting links to PDFs on Packt's webpage, so I won't do that. Please go to Packt's webpage (http://www.packtpub.com ), look for the Coherence book there and download the sample chapter (or order the book).
In short, all 3 to-be-implemented methods (init(), process(), finalizeResult()) in AbstractAggregator are called both on the server and on the caller side. You can distinguish which side you are on from looking at both the passed in fFinal boolean parameter and the m_fParallel attribute tof the aggregator instance.
There are 3 cases:
- non-parallel aggregation processing extracted values (m_fParallel is false, I don't remember what fFinal is in this case),
- parallel aggregation storage side processing extracted values (if I correctly remember, m_fParallel is true, fFinal is false),
- parallel aggregation caller side processing parallel results (m_fParallel and fFinal are both true).
Depending on which side you are on, the process method takes different object types (on server side it receievs the extracted value, on caller side it receives a parallel result object instance).
You SHOULD NOT override any of the other methods (e.g. aggregate() which you mentioned).
The advantage of this approach is that the AbstractAggregator subclass instance can pass itself off as a parallel-aggregator instance.
You should put together a temporary result in a member attribute of the AbstractAggregator subclass, which also means that it will likely not be thread-safe, but at the moment it is not necessary for it to be thread-safe either as it is called only on a single-thread.
Best regards,
Robert

Xslt copy-of creates a xml which returns empty while trying to access elements using XPATH

Hi
I am trying to do a copy-of function using the XSLT in jdev. This is what I do
 <xsl:param name="appdataDO"/>
 <xsl:template match="/">
 <ns1:applicationData>
 <ns1:applicationId>
 <xsl:value-of select="$appdataDO/ns1:applicationData/ns1:applicationId"/>
 </ns1:applicationId>
 <xsl:copy-of select="/fslo:ExternalapplicationData/fslo:ApplicationsHDRAddInfo">
 </xsl:copy-of>
 </ns1:applicationData>
 </xsl:template>
 </xsl:stylesheet>
After this I can see the document created in the process flow as this :
 <ns1:applicationData>
 <ns1:applicationId>MMMM</ns1:applicationId>
 <ns2:ApplicationsHDRAddInfo>
 <ns3:genericFromBasePrimitive>iuoui</ns3:genericFromBasePrimitive>
 <ns4:EstimatedMarketValue>77</ns4:EstimatedMarketValue>
 <ns4:PropertyInsuranceFee>jih</ns4:PropertyInsuranceFee>
 <ns4:LoanOriginationFee>hjh</ns4:LoanOriginationFee>
 <ns4:RegistrarFee>kkkkk</ns4:RegistrarFee>
 <ns4:LoanCashInFee>hjh</ns4:LoanCashInFee>
 <ns4:LoanPaidInCashFlag>cddffgd</ns4:LoanPaidInCashFlag>
 </ns2:ApplicationsHDRAddInfo>
 </ns1:applicationData>
But whenever I am trying to extract any of the output nodes I am getting an empty result. I can copy the whole dataset into similar kind of variable.
But I am unable to get individual elements using XPATH.
I tried using exslt function for node set and xslt 2.0 without avail.
The namespaces might be the culprit here . The test method in the jdev is able to output a result but at runtime the xpath returns empty .
I have created another transform where I try to copy data from the precious dataobject to a simple string in another data object .
This is the test sample source xml for the transform created by jdev while testing with all namespaces, where I try to copy the data in a simple string in another data object.

Applescript: file.open("r") returns empty in jsx

Hey guys,
i am having a bit of a scripting problem here. The big goal for me at the moment is creating a UI script to control aerender.
To achieve getting feedback from the terminal about when an aerender process is completed, i let the terminal trigger an applescript running a jsx inside after effects (since the terminal can't run a jsx inside after effects itself).
However, this particular script needs to eval the contents of a text file that is outputted during the render process (its just a log file put into a fixed location). No matter what i do: I can't get a proper response from the script. Here is what should happen when a render is done:
function RenderEnd () {
var report = new File ("Macintosh HD/Users/macname/generallog.txt");
report.open("r");
var reportstring = report.read();
report.close();
var reportendindex = reportstring.indexOf("Total Time Elapsed:");
var reportcloseindex = reportstring.indexOf("aerender version");
var reportendstring = reportstring.substring(reportendindex, [reportcloseindex]);
var regex = /Finished composition/gi, result, indices = [];
while ( (result = regex.exec(reportstring)) ) {
indices.push(result.index);
var ItemStringArray = new Array ();
for(var i=0; i<indices.length; i++){
ItemStringArray.push("Finished Item " + (i+1) + ": " + reportstring.substring(indices[i]-32, [indices[i]-2]));
var AlertString = "Rendering done." + "\r" + reportendstring + "\r" + ItemStringArray.toString().replace(",","\r");
alert(AlertString);
RenderEnd ();
Running this script by itself properly returns an alert containing a message "Rendering done." plus additional info about the render time and item completion.
But whenever i have the following applescript triggering the above jsx script...
set scriptfile to (POSIX file ("/Applications/Adobe After Effects CS5.5/Scripts/AERenderEndTrigger.jsx"))
tell application "Adobe After Effects CS5.5"
DoScriptFile scriptfile
end tell
...the line report.open("r") just returns empty.
Same goes when i place the jsx in the startup folder and just call the function RenderEnd () via applescript. It's as if the file open/read stuff does not work when using applescript.
Does anybody have an idea about this or knows the reason for why this obviously wrong behaviour happens? Maybe someone knows a different approach of how to get feedback from a completed aerender process back into a UI script.

Ok, i finally found the issue:
Applescript apparently does not recognize file paths beginning with a drive designation:
When i change the file path part of the report file from
var report = new File ("Macintosh HD/Users/macname/generallog.txt");
to simply
var report = new File ("/Users/macname/generallog.txt");
everything works as it should.
It's still a bit weird and i don't understand this. Maybe someone can explain this to me, please?

WINE err:"wine cmd.exe /c echo '%ProgramFiles%' returned empty string"

So as the tittle states WINE is throiwng this error:
wine cmd.exe /c echo '%ProgramFiles%' returned empty string
As for what might have caused it? probably the last system update which was performed a few days ago, my old prefix works fine but I have a habit of creating new prefixes for troublesome applications, or applications I am unsure of whether they will cause trouble or not.
Hence I created a new prefix using:
export WINEARCH=win32
export WINEPREFIX=~/.problematic
winecfg
As for how wine is run, it's run as a normal, unprivileged, user.
Oh and I also tried generating yet another prefix like this:
$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.problematic-new winetricks steam
Executing w_do_call steam
wine cmd.exe /c echo '%ProgramFiles%' returned empty string
Didn't work either.
I'm at loss, any suggestion on how to fix it?

Wine cannot find the ncurses library (libncursesw.so.5).
why is ncurses a dependency anyway? besides, wicd-curses works so this shouldn't be the case.
Anyway, trying winetricks in the same prefix
$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/testprefix winetricks steam
Executing w_do_call steam
wine cmd.exe /c echo '%ProgramFiles%' returned empty string
Anyway, I expected notepad to work since it resides in %WINDOWS% not %ProgramFiles%
Is there any registry key I can set for this? all my google searching says this can cause with a mismatch of wine versions but why would that happen?
Either way checking wine --version outputs wine-1.7.20 which is the same as it was pre-update (when it still worked).

Getserver cookie - returns empty page

Hi,
I am using MVC,
I have firstpage - a controller for that and a model class.
I have second page - a controller for that and the model is the same as the first one.
I am using a single model class but multiple controllers and multiple views. I am trying to use server cookies to set and get attributes between the pages.
First Page - I have 2 attributes - on Do_init - I instantiate Model. Do_request - loads the firstpage. Do_handle-data - once the data is entered in firstpage, gets it from form fields and loads it into cookie.
Do_handle_event - gets the values from the cookie and processes it and makes a table to be passed to the seconf page. I loaded this table in the cookie and - call second.do
Second page - in controller - DOInit - i have again instantiated Model - in Dorequest - I try to read from the cookie for the table data...But I am getting an empty page. I debugged it and in the Do request - where I call the get_server_cookie - nothing happens, just returns empty page...
Does anyone know why?? can I not access the cookie by name in more than once controllers??
Is this a right way of navigating between pages?? I want all the objects in the pages accessible across all the pages...should be able to read and write as per events...please suggest...
Thanks
Thilothama

Hi,
Put that cookie in the navigation->set_parameter and paas it to the next page in the page attributes as an 'AUTO'.
Hope this may help you.

LicenseServer property in Company object alway return empty string

Hi everyone,
When I use Company object and LicenseServer property to get LicenseServer, both in SBO 2004 & SBO 2005 all return empty string, who can help me get the correct LicenseServer name.
Thanks in advance.
Kathy

Jose Xabier,
Thanks for your reply, actually I need the License server name, but in SLIC table it saves Local hotost and port number some times like below:
[localhost:30000]
who knows how to get the name instead of Localhost,
why licenseserver return empty sting? doI need set other property to get license server name for company object?

Fn_my_permissions returns empty result yet my account is a member of sysadmin?

I was trying to see what permissions I had on another server using fn_my_permissions
USE Database_name_here
SELECT * FROM sys.fn_my_permissions(NULL, 'SERVER')
USE Database_2_name_here
SELECT * FROM sys.fn_my_permissions(NULL, 'SERVER')
The one DB that returns the expected list of permissions is the only DB where I am the owner. Others return an empty result.
My (domain) account is in the local administrators group which is in the sysadmin server role.
Whats going on here? Does my account have to be explicitly granted permissions to those schemas? Is role membership not enough?

Hi,
SELECT * FROM fn_my_permissions(NULL, 'SERVER') returns a list of the effective permissions of the caller on the server.
For the server itself, a null value (meaning "current server") is required and fn_my_permissions cannot check permissions on a linked server.
In my option, the server level permission should not change with the databases you specified. You can re-run the code and see if it returns empty by chance.
To return a list of the effective permissions of the caller on the AdventureWorks2012 database:
USE AdventureWorks2012;
SELECT * FROM fn_my_permissions (NULL, 'DATABASE');
GO
sys.fn_my_permissions (Transact-SQL)

Min aggregate function returns empty string

I have a data set with a column named "month" which contains string values like 1,2,3... etc. including empty string. When I apply an aggregate Min function like below, it returns empty string instead of 1. or the lowest month number.
Min(Fields!month.Value, "Financial")
Please if any one can assist me on this.
Regards

Hi ABDUL-HAFEEZ,
As you know the Min() function returns the minimum value of all non-null numeric values specified by the expression, because you have null string in the field and also the field type is string but not numeric, so this function will not works fine.
I have tested on my local environment that we can get the first convert the string to numeric type value and then get the min value of the month field by using the query not the expression.
Details information below for your reference:
Create an new dataset(DataSet2) to get the minimum value from the Month and the query like below:
SELECT Min(CAST(Month AS INT)) as NewMonth
FROM TableName
Using below expression in the main dataset will display the minimum value of the month:
=Sum(Fields!NewMonth.Value, "DataSet2")
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

TreeSet on Java 6 - headSet returns empty

Hi,
My application uses the TreeSet method
public SortedSet headSet(E toElement) to retrieve elements from the TreeSet. This worked fine in Java 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 / 5. Now in Java 6 the method seems to always return an empty SortedSet. I'm running on Windows XP SP2. Obviously it must be something in how my application is using headSet or there would be a lot more posts about it.
Anyone come up against this in moving to Java 6?
Tom

My problem was a faulty attribute value in the key object I was passing to headSet(Object). The value was causing the Comparator I had defined for the TreeSet to defined that the key object was equal to an object in the TreeSet. This resulted in headSet(Object) returning an empty Set.
My conclusion is that something changed in TreeSet between Java 1.5.0_11 and Java 1.6.0_01 to expose this bug but the bug is mine.

Advise about setting up a permissons on Lion server for a small office.

What is the common wisdom and advise about setting up permissions optimally for a small office using OS X Lion Server as a file server? I thought I had this solved by setting the ACL permissions so that all users and appropriate groups can read and write all files on the server. This works great until a new file is created. Then it appears that the POSIX umask kicks in and takes priority over the ACL permissions. I need to allow group write permissions on all new files. My options seem to be:
Make everyone an admin - not great for obvious security reasons
Change the umask for the whole machine - also security problems, though perhaps fewer than the everyone-an-admin route above
Write a folder action applescript to add group write permission on all new files. This works fine if you have a static number of folders With new folders it has the problem: How do new folders created by non-admin users get this folder action automatically applied to them - some cronjob to hunt down the new folders; an applesscrpt folder action that adds a folder action to all new folders (sounds recursively complicated)?
Have a cron job regularly do something like `chmod -R 664` on all files. This will break during those between the cracks times between when someone creates a new file and when the cronjob runs - not ideal.
Seems like this should be easier which makes me think I'm missing something obvious.
Any help great appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Good-heart's advice is certainly your first step, but if you've already done that and still have the problem you've described, you might have the 10.7.3 ACL bug, particularly if your users and groups are in an OD or AD rather than being local accounts on the server. The problem is that ACL's for directory accounts are incorrectly ignored, resulting in POSIX permissions coming into play.
I've descibed my workaround for this here;
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18037703
I haven't yet tried the other trick I've read about, which is to ensure your Share's data directories are at least one level down on the volume - there is a post here on the Communities that mentions this;
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18028746
I seem to remember that this helped with an earlier version of AFP, if using external firewire or usb storage.
Let us know if you find a fix, it seems a number of people have problems with this.

How to use stored procedure which returns result set in OBIEE

Hi,
I hav one stored procedure (one parameter) which returns a result set. Can we use this stored procedure in OBIEE? If so, how we hav to use.
I know we hav the Evaluate function but not sure whether I can use for my SP which returns result set. Is there any other way where I can use my SP?
Pls help me in solving this.
Thanks

Hi Radha,
If you want to cache the results in the Oracle BI Server, you should check that option. When you run a query the Oracle BI Server will get its results from the cache, based on the persistence time you define. If the cache is expired, the Oracle BI Server will go to the database to get the results.
If you want to use caching, you should enable caching in the nqsconfig.ini file.

DPM is Only Allowing Express Full Backups For a Database Set to Full Recovery Model

I have just transitioned my SQL backups from a server running SCDPM 2012 SP1 to a different server running 2012 R2. All backups are working as expected except for one. The database in question is supposed to be backuped up iwht a daily express
full and hourly incremental schedule. Although the database is set to full recovery model, the new DPM server says that recovery points will be created for that database based on the express full backup schedule. I checked the logs on the old DPM
server and the transaction log backups were working just fine up until I stopped protection the data source. The SQL server is 2008 R2 SP2. Other databases on the same server that are set to full recovery model are working just fine. If we
switch the recovery model of a database that isn't protected by DPM and then start the wizard to add it to the protection group it properly sees the difference when we flip the recovery model back and forth. We also tried switching the recovery model
on the failing database from full to simple and then back again, but to no avail. Both the SQL server and the DPM server have been rebooted. We have successfully set up transaction log backups in a SQL maintenance plan as a test, so we know the
database is really using the full recovery model.
Is there anything that someone knows about that can trigger a false positive for recovery model to backup type mismatches?

I was having this same problem and appear to have found a solution. I wanted hourly recovery points for all my SQL databases. I was getting hourly for some but not for others. The others were only getting a recovery point for the Full Express
backup. I noted that some of the databases were in simple recovery mode so I changed them to full recovery mode but that did not solve my problem. I was still not getting the hourly recovery points.
I found an article that seemed to indicate that SCDPM did not recognize any change in the recovery model once protection had started. My database was in simple recovery mode when I added it (auto) to protection so even though I changed it to full recovery
mode SCDPM continued to treat it as simple.
I tested this by 1) verify my db is set to full recovery, 2) back it up and restore it with a new name, 3) allow SCDPM to automatically add it to protection over night, 4) verify the next day I am getting hourly recovery points on the copy of the db.
It worked. The original db was still only getting express full recovery points and the copy was getting hourly. I suppose that if I don't want to restore a production db with an alternate name I will have to remove the db from protection, verify
that it is set to full, and then add it back to protection. I have not tested this yet.
This is the article I read:
