cfscript error

Have a page that works fine
on the dev server, but crashes with the following error on the production server:
Context validation error for tag cfscript.
The start tag must have a matching end tag. An explicit end tag can be provided by adding </cfscript>. If the body of the tag is empty you can use the shortcut <cfscript .../>.The CFML compiler was processing:
a cfscript tag beginning on line 10, column 10.
a cfscript tag beginning on line 10, column 10.
The error occurred in D:\inetpub\wwwroot\MercedCOMVIP\contact_form.cfm: line 10
8 :   <cfset var char = "">
9 :
10 :      <cfscript>
11 :       for(i=1; i <= length; i++) {
12 :         char = mid(chars, randRange(1, len(chars)),1);
Here's the code referenced in the error:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<cffunction name="makeRandomString" returnType="string" output="false">
<cfset var chars = "123456789">
<cfset var length = randRange(4,6)>
<cfset var result = "">
<cfset var i = "">
<cfset var char = "">
<cfscript>
for(i=1; i <= length; i++) {
char = mid(chars, randRange(1, len(chars)),1);
result&=char;
</cfscript>
<cfreturn result>
</cffunction>

Well, I changed the result&=char; line to result = result & char; - worked in dev,
crashed with the same error in prod. Turns out prod is running CF MX7! I'm adding a captcha to the page, so
i've got to upgrade to version 8. That must be what's causing the error.
Thanks

Please help with cfscript error!

When I run my app, I got this error:

anymore, please help!....

When I checked my codes, all the
<cfscript></cfscript> have the pairs.
This error can often mean that you did not properly end a
previous code
block or line. So the closing </cfscript> is being
considered part of
that unclosed code. For me, it is often a missing semi-colon
[;] on the
last line I wrote, missing a closing curly bracket [}] could
do it as well.
Check your code, this is seldom more then missing a bit of
syntax.

This isn't exactly what you are looking for but you can use this to add a header to a axis web service call.
SOAPHeaderElement header = new SOAPHeaderElement("http://your.xsd", "your tag");
SOAPHeaderElement header1 = new SOAPHeaderElement("http://your other.xsd", "your other tag");
header1.setAttribute("Id", "your value");
header.addChild(header1);
SOAPElement node = header1.addChildElement("more text");
node.addTextNode("more text");
SOAPElement nodepwd = header1.addChildElement("another tag");
nodepwd.addTextNode("more text");
nodepwd.setAttribute("Type", "http://another url");
((Stub)service2).setHeader(header);
Hope this is more helpful than confusing.

What's on lines 1-7 of that file?
That code compiles fine for me on CF8 & CF9, so that's not where the error is.
You're not trying to compile it on any earlier version of CF than CF8 are you? The < and ++ operators are not valid prior to CF8. CFMX7 might see the < as a stray angle bracket, and get confused. I don't have CFMX7 running here to test the exact error that would produce, sorry.

After upgrade to CF9, CFIMAGE "Unable to create temporary file" error

We recently upgraded from CF8 to CF9 Enterprise. I'm getting an "Unable to create temporary file" error on
my CFIMAGE resize calls. We use sandbox security. I assume I need to grant write access to whatever folder CF uses for temp files, but which folder is it? The same code (and sandbox settings) ran fine in CF8....
Note, if I attempt to add C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\SERVER-INF\temp to the sandbox for this particular app, CF crashes on all requests across all apps on the server with a:
Security: The requested template has been denied access to C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF\cfclasses\cfapp2ecfc1510154633.c lass.
The following is the internal exception message: access denied (java.io.FilePermission C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF\cfclasses\cfapp2ecfc1510154633.c lass read)
ColdFusion cannot determine the line of the template that caused this error. This is often caused by an error in the exception handling subsystem.
I need to restart CF to get everything working again.

Another update. Had a problem with a sandboxed CF9 site doing a simple CFIMAGE READ to a memory variable. Got an "Unable to create temporary file" error.
Inserted the following code in the file upload page:
<cfscript>
writeoutput("Temp Dir : " & createobject("java","java.lang.System").getProperty("java.io.tmpdir") );
</cfscript>
... and it reveals the temp directory as C:\WINDOWS\TEMP. Added that to the sandbox, and the CFIMAGE READ is working properly now.
Note this seems inconsistent with CFIMAGE RESIZE behavior which appears to use the CF GetTempDirectory() value, which in my case is C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\SERVER-INF\temp\cfusion-war-tmp\
For reference, see the section "Sandbox Considerations" at this link:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/9.0/Admin/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbf364104-7fc8 .html#WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbf364104-7fcc

Does the coldfusion administrator show that the jar file is loaded? If you go to the Settings Summary and look for the CF Server Java Class Path part, it will list all the loaded files.

Value from CFC using cfscript

I've got a function in a CFC that inserts a parent value into
an Oracle table (see below). I want to extend the function to
return the new parent ID so that I can use it to insert the child
values. I'm using <cfscript> to execute the function which
works fine with the data insert, but I can't quite work out how to
output the new parent ID value in <cfscript>. Any help
appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Roy.

Your function might be too complicated. If this.id is the

Wierd ColdFusion erro : Error occurred while processing request.

Hi there ,
I am a graduate student and new to ColdFusion.I started working on this already developed project by someone couple of years ago , and the client wants some changes to be done.so i went ahead and did some small modifications to the appearance of the form(insertdata.cfm page) like adding some more options to a drop down menu , changing the label names and so on and am very sure this changes would not have effected the application in any way.And the place where the message says the error can be , i didnt even touch that part.Now after 4 days i start getting this weird error saying " Error Occurred While Processing Request
The system has attempted to use an undefined value, which usually indicates a programming error, either in your code or some system code.

Can't find answer to Query Of Queries runtime error

Not only I browsed this forum but also googled this problem but unfortunnately I have no luck in finding the answer.
All I did was writing this simple query:
<cfquery name="test" dbtype="query">
select SSN,BirthDate from myquery where SSN <> '' OR BirthDate <> ''
</cfquery>
and I got this error:
Query Of Queries runtime error.
Comparison exception while executing <>.
Unsupported Type Comparison Exception: The <> operator does not support comparison between the following types:
Left hand side expression type = "DOUBLE".
Right hand side expression type = "STRING".
I tried the following and did not work either, still got the same error.
<cfquery name="test" dbtype="query">
select SSN,BirthDate from myquery
where SSN <> <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" value=""/>
OR BirthDate <> <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" value=""/></cfquery>
Has someone ever encountered the same problem and know how to solve it?

HELP ! ! ! Going into testing soon. I need this to work to get correct report results ! ! ! !
My issue seems similar to the one under discussion and the reply from lawhite01 caught my eye. Can you roll my issue into this discussion?
This is a 2 parter. The second part is the QoQ part, but the 1st part has a line in the query that is similar to the QoQ one and it uses the same data. Part 1 also throws an error.
PART # 1.
I'm trying to use a query table created through QueryNew and then query it.
I need multiple columns in the query table I create:
<cfscript>
        tot_AllCurrentDraftListing = QueryNew("AnnounceNum, JP_PDLoc, JP_JS_Title, JP_JS, JP_KW_1, JP_JobTitle, JP_Open, JP_Close, JP_CloseType, JP_CloseName, JP_PosNeed, JP_DirectHire, JP_Desc, JP_Draft, JP_Archived, JP_State, JP_AreaName, JP_AreaID, JP_AreaAlias, JP_Fac_SU, JP_Fac_Facility, JP_FAC_ID, JP_Grade1, JP_sal_low1, JP_sal_high1, JP_Grade2, JP_sal_low2, JP_sal_high2, JP_Grade3, JP_sal_low3, JP_sal_high3, JP_Grade4, JP_sal_low4, JP_sal_high4, JP_Grade5, JP_sal_low5, JP_sal_high5, JP_Posted, JP_TypeHire, JP_HRemail");
    </cfscript>
Then I populate all the cells of the query table.
Then I set up to use the created query table.
I do this first:
    <cfquery name="qAltPostID" datasource="#at_datasource#">
         SELECT AltPoster, fk_Job_AnnounceNum
         from JOB_JPContacts
         Where AltJPContactType = 'AltPosterID'
         and AltPoster = '#session.IHSUID#'
         </cfquery>
Then, in my first query using the created query, I expect to need to choose from multiple values, so I'm using this line in the query (this is NOT a QoQ query):
          and AnnounceNum IN (<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="CF_SQL_varchar" value="#ValueList(qAltPostID.fk_Job_AnnounceNum)#">)
I've also tried:
               and AnnounceNum IN (#ValueList(qAltPostID.fk_Job_AnnounceNum)#)
and:
             and JOB_AnnounceNum IN
                SELECT fk_Job_AnnounceNum
                from JOB_JPContacts
                Where AltJPContactType = 'AltPosterID'
                and AltPoster = '#session.IHSUID#'
ERROR is: one record should return. I get 0.
PART # 2: Here's the QoQ part.
I get the error:
Query Of Queries runtime error.
Comparison exception while executing IN.
Unsupported Type Comparison Exception: The IN operator does not support comparison between the following types:
Left hand side expression type = "LONG".
Right hand side expression type = "STRING".
A tutorial I found gave an example using only one column for this part of the fix:
     tot_AllCurrentDraftListing = QueryNew("AnnounceNum", "CF_SQL_VARCHAR")
How would I set up the query with the datatype when I'm using multiple columns:
<cfscript>
        tot_AllCurrentDraftListing = QueryNew("AnnounceNum, JP_PDLoc, JP_JS_Title, JP_JS, JP_KW_1, JP_JobTitle, JP_Open, JP_Close, JP_CloseType, JP_CloseName, JP_PosNeed, JP_DirectHire, JP_Desc, JP_Draft, JP_Archived, JP_State, JP_AreaName, JP_AreaID, JP_AreaAlias, JP_Fac_SU, JP_Fac_Facility, JP_FAC_ID, JP_Grade1, JP_sal_low1, JP_sal_high1, JP_Grade2, JP_sal_low2, JP_sal_high2, JP_Grade3, JP_sal_low3, JP_sal_high3, JP_Grade4, JP_sal_low4, JP_sal_high4, JP_Grade5, JP_sal_low5, JP_sal_high5, JP_Posted, JP_TypeHire, JP_HRemail");
    </cfscript>
I used this code after all the cells contained values and before running my QoQ query:
        <cfloop index="intID" from="1" to="#tot_AllCurrentDraftListing.recordcount#" step="1">
            <cfset tot_AllCurrentDraftListing["AnnounceNum"] [intID] = JavaCast("string", intID) />
        </cfloop>
          Is that correct?
Thanks.
Whoever can help me with this should be awarded extra points ! ! ! !

The value returned from the load function is not of type numeric errors after migration to Coldfusion 11

I am currently testing our website with CF11. It is currently working with CF8 however after migrating it to a new server running CF11 I have encountered the following error.
The value returned from the load function is not of type numeric.
The error occurred in
D:/Applications/CFusion/CustomTags/nec/com/objects/address.cfc: line 263
Called from D:/Applications/CFusion/CustomTags/nec/com/objects/contact.cfc: line 331

263 : <cfset rc = this.objCountry.load()>
264 : </cfif>
265 : <cfset this.sPostcode = get.sPostcode>
Have there been any changes between CF8 and CF11 that could cause this error?
Does anyone have ideas?

Double quotes in CFScript

I need to add " " within a sentence inside my CFscript. When
I applied it, I got an error, it seems that CFScript doesn't like
the extra "" within "". What should I do so the word "Warning"
appear to user within this double quotes
<CFSCRIPT>
.......some codes here
structFormText[numKey][1]["formText"] = "I have some text
here and I need to put double quotes surrounding a word within this
sentence so that my user will be able to see "Warning" like what
you are seeing now ";
................................some codes here
</CFSCRIPT>

Yet another variation
<cfscript>
x="...my user will be able to see #chr(34)#Warning#chr(34)#
like what you are seeing now ...";
</cfscript>
<cfoutput>#x#</cfoutput>

Encrypt/decrypt AES 256, vorsalt error

Hiyas.
So I'm trying to get encrypt/decrypt to work for AES 256, with both 32byte key and 32byte IVorSalt. (Yup-new java security files v6 installed)
'IF' I 32byte key but dont use a IV at all, I get a nice looking AES 256 result. (I can tell it's AES 256 by looking the length of the encrypted string)
'IF' I use a 32byte key and 16bit salt, I get a AES 128 result (I know- as per docs theyre both s'posed to the same size, but the docs are wrong).
But when i switch to using both a 32byte key AND a 32byte salt I get the error below.
An error occurred while trying to encrypt or decrypt your input string: Bad parameters: invalid IvParameterSpec: com.rsa.jsafe.crypto.JSAFE_IVException: Invalid IV length. Should be 16.
Has anyone 'EVER' gotten encrypt to work for them using AES 256 32byte key and 32byte salt? Is this a bug in CF? Or Java? Or I am doing something wrong?

Hi edevmachine,
This Bouncy Castle Encryption CFC supports Rijndael w/ 256-bit block size. (big thanks to Jason here and all who helped w/ that, btw!)
Example:
<cfscript>
BouncyCastleCFC = new path.to.BouncyCastle();
string = "ColdFusion Rocks!";
key = binaryEncode(binaryDecode(generateSecretKey("Rijndael", 256), "base64"), "hex");//the CFC takes hex'd key
ivSalt = binaryEncode(binaryDecode(generateSecretKey("Rijndael", 256), "base64"), "hex");//the CFC takes hex'd ivSalt
encrypted = BouncyCastleCFC.doEncrypt(string, key, ivSalt);
writeOutput(BouncyCastleCFC.doDecrypt(encrypted, key, ivSalt));
</cfscript>

- An explanation of how to install the Bouncy Castle Crypto package into ColdFusion (near bottom, under the "Installing additional security providers" heading)
- An explanation of how to connect the Bouncy Castle classes together

Multiple Error Messages CFB2 after hotfix installation

Hi,
I just installed the CFB2 Hotfix on Windows 7 pro 64 AND 32bit machines and now get a ton of startup errors in the error log. I have no idea what is causing this. Here is a small part of the error log. I have tried starting with the -clean option and still get the errors. It's approx. 900 lines of messages.
Any way to remove the cause of these?
Thanks,
Doug

Form Validation - Error Trapping Not Working.

Hi,
I'm a Coldfusion beginner desperately trying to get along with some database work for my site and have come across an annoying error that I just can't solve! I'm sure I'm missing something really basic - I just can't for the life of me figure out what it is!
Basically, I have a form for users to sign-up. I have introduced several cfif statements and a basic CAPTCHA system to trap errors. If any errors are submitted then they should be displayed in a cfwindow. This process works fine until I specify the form action - after which it is completely ignored and the form contents are written to the database without any validation taking place. Even without specifying the form action the errors won't show in Internet Explorer.
I really would appreciate any help - it's driving me crazy!
Thanks in advance,
Tom.

In addition to BreakawayPaul's answer.
You are making it very difficult to troubleshoot your if/else logic because your code includes all the display stuff. Since you're a self proclaimed beginner, you might want to try another approach.
Save your old page and start a new one from scratch. Solve all your logic problems first. Display what you need to see with the cfdump tag.
Here are some hints to make the whole thing easier.
1. In your cfform, use the validate and required attributes to catch errors earlier.
2. You don't have to cfparam every form field. The form has either been submitted to it hasn't. If it has, all the fields will be there with the possible exception of checkboxes or radio button, if nothing was selected.
