Cfinvoke error

Here is the code from the .cfm page
<cfinvoke component="Checkout" method="purchaseAudio"
returnvariable="PurchaseAudioResults" > </cfinvoke>
Here is the error that comes up. as you can see there is a
method on the cfinvoke call, and there is a method called
purechaseAudio in the Checkout.cfc file. Why do I get this error?
Error Message:
Attribute validation error for tag CFINVOKE.
The tag requires the attribute(s): METHOD .
The error occurred in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Audio

strange....
- does the purchaseAudio method in your Checkout.cfc invoke
any other
components using <cfinvoke>? are the tags properly
formed there?
- try removing the closing </cfinvoke> - you really
only need it when
you have <cfinvokeargument>

CFINVOKE syntax causing error - STUB OBJECTS??

When I run the code below I get this error :
"Could not generate stub objects for web service invocation.

I
have run other simple cfinvoke tags - like to get weather
for a zipcode - without error... what does this error mean & is
the problem on my hosts server, in my code or on the webservice
server?
Thanks!!

Talking like that to someone who's trying to help you is not
going to win
you any friends. And probably very little help.

WSDL file just fine,

I have sometimes found this to happen when I have executed a
WS once, and
then changed some of its input/output data types. I'm not
entirely sure
what's going on, but deleting any files created in (I think)
WEB-INF\cfc-skeletons seemed to allow it to regenerate the
stub files.
I would do what BSterner suggests... create another very
simple WS (one
that takes a string arg, and returns a boolean, or
something), and try
that: just to test if you can get ANY WSs working.
I have found that CF struggles with queries as datatypes in
WSs, I guess
because it's not a supported datatype for WSs in general,
being specific to
CF. I have not really looked at this since 6.1, though (I'm
not really a
developer any more, so don't get to keep up to date with this
stuff).

CFinvoke returned error...anyone know why?

I am trying to connect to SAP using cfinvoke and I get the error msg below. Anyone know what is the error in my code or setting?
Cannot locate an API in the generated service class that returned the right interface for web service invocation.

CFINVOKE web services woes - semantic compiling errors

I'm getting the error below when trying to invoke an .asmx
web service. I've gotten the same error on 3 different servers
running CF6.1 and 7.
I posted the WSDL on an online validator and it worked ok. I
suspect this is a specific issue with coldfusion only. I
unfortunately can't post the WS address here.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

After investigation it turned out that one of the libraries
was using java.rmi.RemoteException.class which was quite old.
Apparently when the servers were starting they were launching
the libraries in different order. So some of them were using old
version of java.rmi.RemoteException.class and the AxisFault.class
that inherited from it couldn't compile.

401 Unauthorized error when calling a webservice

Have ColdFusion 11 installed, I have created a hello web service and I am trying to call it. Each time I try to call the web service I get an error 401 Unauthorized. I am not sure if I need to configure something more on the ColdFusion server, IIS or something else.

It appears that you have inadvertently enforced HTTP authentication. If so, you will have to include the attributes, username="your_username" and password="your_password" in the cfinvoke tag.

Error message when trying to connect to a web service

Hi all,
I am trying to consume a third party web service using the
attached code and i get this big massive error about complex types:
[The following information is meant for the website developer
for debugging purposes.
Error Occurred While Processing Request
Complex object types cannot be converted to simple values.
The expression has requested a variable or an intermediate
expression result as a simple value, however, the result cannot be
converted to a simple value. Simple values are strings, numbers,
boolean values, and date/time values. Queries, arrays, and COM
objects are examples of complex values.
The most likely cause of the error is that you are trying to
use a complex value as a simple one. For example, you might be
trying to use a query variable in a <CFIF> tag. This was
possible in ColdFusion 2.0 but creates an error in later versions.
Has anyone encountered this before or what this may
mean....thanks
Code:

What kind of data is returned by your callcredit webservice?
Try performing a cfdump on "io".
Also, the cfinvoke/webservice method usually generates the
SOAP wrapper around your webservice arguments. You may want to try
just passing the XML expected by Job5314 (unless, of course, the
method is expecting a full SOAP message as a parameter).
i.e.
<cfsavecontent variable="strpost2">
<pwdchangerequest>
<oldpwd>oldpassword</oldpwd>
<newpwd>newpass</newpwd>
<confirmpwd>newpass</confirmpwd>
</pwdchangerequest>
</cfsavecontent>
<cfinvoke
webservice="
http://localhost/callcredit.wsdl"
method="Job5314"
returnvariable="io">
<cfinvokeargument name="io" value="#strpost2#"/>

Validation error for tag cfloop

Hi All,
Complete newbie to CF here. I've inherited (or bought) an online business which has its site written in CF. I haven't done this sort of stuff before but do work SQL for a living and object oriented stuff plus have done a bit of html and php so CF isn't mind blowing to me (in its simple form).
I've downloaded my site on to my computer to run a local copy that I can hack to pieces if needs be. For some reason, I have a few problems with the site running locally. The first error I'm getting is a Attribute validation error for tag cfloop.
Basically, index.cfm has this bit of code in it:
<cfinvoke component="#datasets#" method="storedProcedure" returnvariable="getFeaturedWineries_qry">
    <cfinvokeargument name="storedProcedure" value="usp_GetFeaturedWineries">
</cfinvoke>
Ok, easy enough. Anyway, there's a call down the page to:
<cfinclude template = "#REQUEST.CFMPath#includes/displayFeaturedWineries.cfm">
Within displayFeaturedWineries.cfm is the code that calls the stored proc invoked above:
<cfloop query="getFeaturedWineries_qry" startrow="1" endrow="2">
Bam, that's where the error occurs. "The value of the attribute query, which is currently getFeaturedWineries_qry, is invalid.
What??? The stored proc exists and it only returns two records (which begs me to wonder why you would have startrow and endrow but anyway, it doesn't work with or without it).
The other interesting thing is that this works on production, NO PROBLEM!!! WTF? How can it work on production but not locally.
The only thing I'm starting to think is:
a) I've missed a setting somewhere in CF or
b) I'm running Apache as compared to IIS or
c) I'm running SQL 2008 and CF 9 which will no doubt be different to the production host server.
Should B or C be causing THAT type of problem??
Thanks,
Matt

I'm not sure what code apart from the above is going to show you what you could possibly need to solve this, but here goes. The following is only snippets of the code, but they are the relavant snippets. Other stored procs work. The cfdump for getFeaturedWineries_qry shows 'usp_getFeaturedWineries'. I know its there because I've been unable to run "EXEC usp_getFeaturedWineries" after copying it straight out of the code. As previously stated, there are other stored procs which are running fine.

CFINVOKE

ColdFusion cannot determine how to process the tag
<CFINVOKE>. The tag name may be misspelled.
If you are using tags whose names begin with CF but are not
ColdFusion tags you should contact Allaire Support.
The error occurred while processing an element with a general
identifier of (CFINVOKE), occupying document position (8:1) to

This is a super simply first time application from Forta's
book. Don't know where to go.
PLEASE HELP.
thanks

This is a super simply first time
Then I would grab the bull by the horn. Install Coldfusion
MX7.0.2. The developer edition is free.

Error Invoking CFC... but it's there! I see it!

Greetings all -
I'm hoping someone can help explain why this following attempt at binding a CFC is not working:
1. I set up a CF Server Mapping to my cfc folder:

Physical path = E:\ColdFusion8\Components\testcfc
2. I set up a virtual directory to my cfc folder:
Virtual path: /testcfc
Physical path: E:\ColdFusion8\Components\testcfc
3. If I use CFINVOKE to call the CFC, it works as expected.
<cfinvoke component="testcfc.testRequests" method="get_Clients" returnvariable="var">
<cfinvokeargument name="fiscal_year" value="#year(now())#">
</cfinvoke>
<cfdump var="#var#">
4. If I attempt to bind the CFC, I get the error "Error Invoke CFC /testResults.cfc: Not Found"
<cfselect name="tstClientID" id="tstClientID" bind="cfc:testcfc.tstRequests.get_Clients('#year(now())#')" bindonload="true" value="client_id" display="client_name" />
Debugging the error, I see that CF is attempting to find the CFC in the root directory of the app... it is disregarding the directory path ("testcfc") specified entirely. Why??
The bizarre thing is, I've set up the same structure on my PC/dev environment, and it works fine.
How can I further debug this issue? It's got to be a mapping problem, but can;t see what I've done wrong. Any help truly appreciated!

I recently stumbled upon this post:
http://www.codersrevolution.com/index.cfm/2008/9/10/ColdFusion-CFC-Binding-Ajax-Proxy-and- Updater-1#comments
Sure enough, my prod environment is running 8.0.0. I'm going to apply to apply the patch to 8.0.1 and see if that corrects the issue. I hope.

Anyone know whay I am getting this error?

Variable qUpdateVersion is undefined.
Here is my function:
    <cffunction name="UpdateVersion" access="public" returntype="query">
        <cfquery name="qUpdateVersion" datasource="ProjectMatrix">
            UPDATE tblProjectTracking
            SET dateRemoved=#form.dateRemoved#,dateToTakeDown=#form.dateToTakeDown#
            WHERE ID = #form.ID#
        </cfquery>
      <cfreturn qUpdateVersion>
    </cffunction>
Here is my Invoke:
<cfinvoke
component="hardy.Operations.components.Query"
method="UpdateVersion"
returnVariable="qUpdateVersion">
</cfinvoke>
I don't understand the error. My query looks good as it is just pulling 2 items from the previous pages form. I ran a CFDUMP and verified that the variables needed are being passed. When I remove the cfdump, I get this error and it is driving me mad. I am using coldfusion 8. I am missing something that is obviously going right over my head.

It would also be a good idea to pass in the id value, rather then relying on the component function to get the data from the form scope outside of itself.
Depending on where the component is coming from, it may or may not have access to the form scope.
    <cffunction name="UpdateVersion" access="public" returntype="query">
        <cfargument name="id" type="numeric">
        <cfset var qUpdateVersion = "">
        <cfquery name="qUpdateVersion" datasource="ProjectMatrix">
            UPDATE tblProjectTracking
            SET dateRemoved=#form.dateRemoved#,dateToTakeDown=#form.dateToTakeDown#
            WHERE ID = #arguments.ID#
        </cfquery>
      <cfreturn qUpdateVersion>
    </cffunction>
<cfinvoke
component="hardy.Operations.components.Query"
method="UpdateVersion"
id="#form.id#"
returnVariable="qUpdateVersion">
</cfinvoke>

CF 9 issue with cfinvoke

I ran into a really odd behavior using cfinvoke in CF9. This came up for an application that has run fine on earlier version of CF and then broke on CF9.
The basic error comes up when we do something like (not actual code, but what seems to cause the problem):
<cfset stObject = structnew() />
<cfinvoke component="...."
method="get"
returnVariable="stObject" />
In this case where stObject is defined prior to running the cfinvoke, the get() method won't populate stObject.
However, if we do the same thing using the following:
<cfset stObject = createObject(....).get() />
then stObject is properly populated.
To make the older application work, we've had to go through the code and rewrite the cfinvoke's into CreateObject(...).method(). That gets past the errors but doesn't make any sense.
Has anyone else seen anything like this?

I have not experienced this, no. However I have to say I very seldom use <cfinvoke>.
Can you contrive a stand-alone / simple reproduction case of this?

Error Consuming Web Services

Hi All,
I'm using CFINVOKE to consume an enterprise web service. Now, I'm not well versed in web services. But, from reading the CF documentation on them, you're supposed to be able to use <CFINVOKE...> to access them. So, on my test page I have:
<cfinvoke webservice="http://domain.xxx/webservice/EnterpriseWebService?WSDL" method="neededMethod" returnVariable="theOutput"> <cfinvokeargument name="input1" value="#myInput#" />
</cfinvoke>
I'm trying to use a method called "neededMethod". When the <cfinvoke...> tag is reached, I get the following error: coldfusion.jsp.CompilationFailedException: Errors reported by Java compiler: Found 2 semantic errors compiling "/export/jrun4/servers/cfusion/cfusion-ear/cfusion-war/WEB-INF/cfusion/stubs/WS-147004589 /EnterpriseWebService/webservice/xxx/gov/us/EnterpriseWebService.java: 13. public EnterpriseWebService.webservice.xxx.gov.us.EnterpriseWebServicePort getEnterpriseWebServicePort() throws javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException; ^--------^ *** Semantic Error: Type "EnterpriseWebService.webservice.xxx.gov.us.EnterpriseWebService$webservice" was not found. 15. public EnterpriseWebService.webservice.xxx.gov.us.EnterpriseWebServicePort getEnterpriseWebServicePort(java.net.URLportAddress) throws javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException; ^--------^ *** Semantic Error: Type "EnterpriseWebService.webservice.xxx.gov.us.EnterpriseWebService$webservice" was not found 8 semantic errors compiling "/export/jrun4/servers/cfusion/cfusion-ear/cfusion-war/WEB-INF/cfusion/stubs/WS-147004589 /EnterpriseWebService....
I looked at the Java files in the referenced directories. They seem to be generated by something called Axis. But, compiling these fail. Is there something in the CF admin that I can tweak?

Place your wsdl on your URL browser, and at the bottom of the output, there should be a an http pointing to your webserver. Make sure that your server domain or IP address is listed on the http pointer. If not, then correct and run.
Try that, and see how it goes.
HTH.

Looks like the security settings have changed and your being
denied
access to either the feed or the component that pulls in the
feed.

Cfobject / cfinvoke problem in my application.cfc

Hello;
I am trying to use cfobject in my onsessionstart function in my application.cfc file. The cfobject is another application.cfc file I have in a sub directory in the web site, it runs the shopping cart. I am not firing this off properly and I was hoping someone could help me fix my code so it will operate properly.This is my invoke statement:
<cfobject name="SESSION.myShoppingCart" component="ShoppingCart">
<cfinvoke component="#SESSION.myShoppingCart#" method="getShoppingCart">
This is my whole argument statement for on session start:
<cffunction name="onSessionStart" returntype="any" output="true">
<cfset SESSION.created = now()> 
<cfobject name="SESSION.myShoppingCart" component="ShoppingCart">
<cfinvoke component="#SESSION.myShoppingCart#" method="getShoppingCart">
</cffunction>
this is my error:
Context validation error for tag cffunction.
The end tag </cffunction> encountered on line 80 at column 11 requires a matching start tag.
The error occurred in C:\website\Application.cfc: line 28
26 : <cffunction name="onSessionStart" returntype="any" output="true">
27 : <cfset SESSION.created = now()>
28 : <cfobject name="SESSION.myShoppingCart" component="ShoppingCart">
29 : <cfinvoke component="#SESSION.myShoppingCart#" method="getShoppingCart">
Can anyone help me? What do I need to do to set off my shopping cart functions on the cfc I am trying to invoke?
Thank You
CFmonger

this is what I am supposed to put in the on sessionstart function:
<cfobject name="SESSION.myShoppingCart" component="ShoppingCart">
But this throws the same error. I am reading this off of instructions from a book. Obviously the book is wrong. Is there a way to make that cfobject statement work? I don't want a return variable. I want the ShoppingCart.cfc that resides in the sub directory /donation/ShoppingCart.cfc to go into client memory, I don't need a return value, I need the shoppong cart application portion fired when they hit the web site, creating a "shopping cart" in session / client variables.
How would I do that using this tag? Thanks.
