Set up FileMaker DSN is Cold Fusion administrator

I am trying to set up a dsn to filemaker pro 11 database in the cf administrator.
I am at the Datasources > Other screen
and there are questions there that I know I dont have answered correctly.
Here is the error message I get.
"No suitable driver available for xxxx, please check the driver setting in resources file, error"
I am using CF9.
I have already successsfully setup the dsn in the 32bit ODBC Data Source administrator and successsfully connected to the Filemaker Server.
But to use it in CF pages I need to set it up inthe CF administrator, Right?

The way that Dreamweaver connects to a MySQL database is by creating a folder called _mmServerScripts in the root of your testing server. The folder doesn't show up in the Dreamweaver files panel because its name begins with an underscore.
Normally, if you want to connect to a remote MySQL database, you need to define the remote server as the testing server. Dreamweaver then uploads _mmServerScripts to the remote server and connects locally. This configuration was chosen because most hosting companies don't permit remote access to MySQL.
It sounds as though you are trying to connect a local testing server to a remote database. I suspect the problem is that the mysql.php script in _mmServerScripts is running with limited permissions, as is usual within Apache. Even though you're running Dreamweaver as administrator, Apache won't have the same permissions.

Cold Fusion Administration pages blank

Help. I have tried this several times and each one happens
the same way.
On Fedora Core 5, with JBoss404 and SunOne #9, installed as
.ear (tried war on jboss).
I am able to serve pages (cfset plust output of set
variable.)
I am able to get to the admin signin pages but all the admin
piece shows up as blank pages.
I did change the sun one security settings as described for 7
to allow all connectors.
I saw a message about a c++ connector library but when I
followed the MACROMEDIA link there was no related information.
Any ideas?

Cold Fusion Administrator CFX tag registration.

Cannot browse server following installation of hotfix 4 to Cold Fusion 9.0.1

Hi
I've been tasked with updating a ColdFusion 9.0.1 installation to the latest patches. I've started with Hotfix 4. The installation appeared to go OK, and the services started after I applied the update. However, when I went to moved onto the next update (APSB13-10) starting by browsing to the update file I ran into a problem. When I click on the "browse server" button to locate the .jar file for the next update I encounter an error: "Unable to authenticate on RDS server using current security information". I've also found that if I try to put the full path into the Update File line and hit "Submit Changes" it errors.
This seems to be the same problem as http://forums.adobe.com/message/5256752#5256752, but there's no solution to the problem in that discussion.
I've checked the RDS settings, and RDS is unchecked. I notice that this screen is different from the pre-upgrade screen, but this seems to be as a result of, I think, APSB13-03, which is included in HotFix 4. If I try to make any changes on this screen it errors and logs me out of the Cold Fusion administrator. I've tried commenting out the RDS section in the web.xml file, but this gives me a different error.
I'm doing this on an isolated test server which has no access to the network. If I revert to the snapshot I took before the upgrade attempt ColdFusion runs as expected.
Any ideas what might be the problem? Thanks in advance.

In case it helps anyone I've realised what I was doing wrong here.
The main “problem” was that one of the updates included in Cumulative Hotfix 4 is APSB13-03 (http://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/kb/coldfusion-security-hotfix-apsb13-03.html). I knew this changed the behaviour of RDS but my knowledge prior to this work of ColdFusion and in particular RDS was very limited, and so I didn't understand the implications of this hotfix. What this update does is disable RDS by default; I wasn't really aware what the RDS status of my server was prior to the update, partly because before this update there is no "disable RDS" tick box to show whether it is enabled or disabled. With RDS disabled, you can't browse as the update instructions require you to do. Obviously RDS was enabled on my setup without me realising it.
My understanding of this wasn't helped by the fact that when I tried to paste a path into the box and hit the "update" button I got a different error, which I described in my original post. Similarly if I tried to change RDS settings, or do pretty much anything in the administrator, it failed and logged me out in the same way. It seemed to me that the whole thing was broken by the updates and I didn't know how to fix it.
So, following the excellent advice of Charlie Arehart in two articles: http://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2010/12/12/cfmyths_cumulative_hotfixes and http://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2011/10/21/why_chfs_may_break, I went back to the start and installed the cumulative hotfixes one by one. Although I don't think I actually needed to do this, as Hotfix 4 seems to contain all the previous hotfixes, it did help me realise that the browsing/RDS issue and the error and logout when I tried to do anything in the administrator were two different problems. After further bit of googling I found people suggesting that you should use https to access the administrator, but the shortcut I had was taking me to http (as far as I know I was using the default shortcut). I found that by going to https the problem of being logged out when trying to do anything disappeared and I could put a UNC path in to update the .jar file for the next update. I also was now able to enable RDS for single password and could browse like the hotfix instructions advise. I've since disabled RDS and accepted the inability to browse as a "feature", happy that it's more secure as a result.
So my “problems” were largely self-inflicted due to my own ignorance of the product, but it wasn’t helped by Adobe’s apparent inability to grasp that there may be similarly ignorant people attempting these updates. It would have been nice to see some guidance from them. Furthermore, the cumulative hotfix 4 page (http://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/kb/cumulative-hotfix-4-coldfusion-901.html) doesn’t even mention RDS, let alone that the default behaviour changes. It’s only when you check the individual hotfix information that you can see the information that helped me to realise where I was going wrong.
As for using https not http; great, but if I’m right that my shortcut is the default out-of-the-box shortcut, where’s the information to advise to change to using https as a result of one of the hotfixes included in hotfix 4 (originally, I think, hotfix 2)? It’s certainly not mentioned on the page for cumulative hotfix 4.

Cold Fusion Issue

Hi There my name is Javier and I am a baby on this java issues.
I am having this problem trying to get the pay flow program from VeriSign to work with the cold fusion administrator I did all the steps but when I test it came out with an error saying that I need to install the JVM or JRE because it didn't find it so you need to tell the path of the jvm.dll on the Cold Fusion Administrator in order for this test to run succesfully.
I did a search for jvm.dll nothin but I notice there is some java files there so I did a test went to this site download jre 4.1.1.8 and install it on my home computer the installation went fine and then I notice the installation creates a directory called JRE4.1.1.8 and I did a search for the jvm.dll but also ntohing like that shows up instead I found two dll files, javai.dll and another java dll file but the question is: IF i DESIRE TO INSTALL THE NEW VERSION OF JVM ON THE SERVER WHAT DLL FILE SHOULD I CHOOSE TO BE DEFINE ON THE COLD FUSION ADMINISTRATOR, was there any changes from the last version of JVM to the news version I am assuming there is but I don't know what to look for.
Any help on this matter would be highly appreciated.

Did you figure out the solution to your problem? I am running into the same issue.

How to register Rest web services in Cold Fusion 9 administration console?

I am building a Rest web service using Cold Fusion 9 and Cold Fusion Builder 3 and now I want to register it on Cold Fusion 9 admin console, but I didn't see any option there as in CF 10 and CF 11 Data Services ---> Rest Web service. So, please tell me how to register my Rest web service in CF 9 either through admin console or through code?

Simple answer: you can't. REST services were a new feature released with CF10. Alternatively, you can use a community-supported framework to provide REST services, such as:
Taffy (a dedicated REST framework)
FW/1 (an MVC framework with REST capabilities)
ColdBox (an MVC framework with REST capabilities)

Modifying cold fusion script not picked up by iis

We are running coldfusion 7, using iis6 on windows 2003 server. I am not a cold fusion developer and this is the only coldfusion script we have created by a previous developer. I needed to make some simple modifications to the script, including a change in the title. After having restarted IIS the modified script is still not showing the new title. What do I need to do for iis to show the changes in the cfm file?

It's in the CF Administrator, which is separate from the JRun Admin Console. You can often get to the CF Administrator with a URL like this:
http://your_server/CFIDE/administrator/

How to change web server from inbuilt Tomcat to IIS in already configured Cold Fusion 10

how to change web server from inbuilt Tomcat to IIS in already configured Cold Fusion 10

You just need to run the Web Server Configuration Tool to connect ColdFusion to IIS. It can be found in the ColdFusion program group off of the Start menu. Be sure to run it "As Administrator".

Flex/cold fusion wizard & Visual Query builder has a problem

has anybody tried the cold fusion / flex application wizard in flex 3?
to get there follow these menu choices:
file new other cold fusion wizards coldfusion / flex application wizard
I previously installed cf8 and the rds query viewer works fine.
i simply choose from the following menus:
window other views... Cold Fusion RDS dataview
i was initially prompted for the rds password which i entered.
in the RDS Dataview, I can see the tables, columns, and data for all my existing datasources.
Unfortunately, when I use the COld Fusion/Flex application wizard,
I get to the page layout and design screen, add a page with the name artists, choose page type master, and click the Edit master page button.
Nothing happens when I click the Edit Master Page button. I followed the cf/flex tutorial exactly but there is no query builder.
I dont know if this is related but in the RDS query viewer, the Visual Query BUilder doesn't work.
I think this may be the problem (the visual query builder has a problem)
Unfortunately, how do I fix this problem

already found the answer
flex has to be run as administrator if using WIndows Vista
simply shut down flex, right click the startup icon, choose run as administrator, and the visual query builder runs fine.
Dont know why this occurs because you are always prompted for the rds password.
anyway, problem solved.

Any change I make to a cold fusion file is ignored

I made some changes to an cf file but they are ignored in all my browsers. I have even deleted the file from the path and that is ignored in any browser and it still shows the original file. I have tried this on 2 different cold fusion servers 9 and 10 with the same results.

I can think of 2 reasons:
1) Wrong path: The path of the file you are editing is different from the path corresponding to the URL that you are opening in the browser. Verify this. Temporarily rename the file, and see what happens when you open the URL in a browser.
2) Caching: What the browser keeps opening might be a cached version of the page. Launch the ColdFusion Administrator and navigate to Server Settings => Caching. Make sure the option, Save class files, is unchecked. Press the button to Submit Changes

What can be done when Cold Fusion 9 ODBC Services will not install?

What can be done when 64-bit Cold Fusion 9 ODBC Service will not install on a Windows Server 2008-R2 64-bit machine? Yes, most of the things in other discussions have been tried.

Hi GDMVU,
Save the below code as CF9_RemoveOdbc.cfm
<cfscript>
//login using admin
//createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("administrator_password" );
createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("admin");
//instantiate datasource object
myObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.datasource");
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
     writeOutput("Removing ODBC Services...<br>");
     returnValue = myObj.removeODBCservice();
     writeOutput("ODBC Services removed");
</cfscript>
Save the below code as CF9_InstallOdbc.cfm
<cfscript>
//login using admin
//createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("administrator_password" );
createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("admin");
//instantiate datasource object
myObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.datasource");
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
         writeOutput("Installing ODBC Services...<br>");
         returnValue = myObj.installODBCservice();
         writeOutput("ODBC Services installed");
</cfscript>
Now try the following steps:-
Change admin password in above .cfm pages for your CF 9 server.
Use RemoveObdc cfm page first to remove any existing faulty/corrupted Odbc services.
Use InstallOdbc Odbc services to install Odbc services there.
Hope this helps.

Installing Cold Fusion MX Developer on XP Pro

I believe your MX Studio came with a developer edition of
CFMX 6.0. There are now several newer editions. Each is greatly
improved over the original CFMX (over 5 years old now). I would
recommend you uninstall CFMX6 and install the latest CFMX 7.02 at:
http://www.adobe.com/go/trycoldfusion
or at least install CFMX 6.1 updater 1. Both are available at the
same URL. The bottom dropdown is for CFMX 6.1. Each of the CFMX
installers allows you to choose between a trial version (enterprise
for 30 days, then developer) or a licensed version if you have a
license. The original CFMX 6.0 is not a good option at this point
in time.

Air,Flex ,Cold Fusion There is a problem with P4990 Release of AIR Updater

using Air/Flex/cf I am not able to connect to my Cold Fusion
component after running the P4990 UPdate this morning, It worked
fine on both an XP and Vista Machine running P4880 , but now even
after a restart my simple connection to the cfcomponent is hanging
and will not run.
this worked fine in the release I was running this morning,
runs fine in a browser just not after patching ?
two questions ,
where can I download the P4880 Release Again
and is this a bug or a change ? ,
if its a change what is the new way of connecting.

I read through the notes and iI even recreated my air file,
but it is still hanging , here is the html for the connection
to the app as well as the flex remote connection I am using, it all

Flex and the cold fusion wizard

I am trying to use the cold fusion wizard in Flex 3. What
must be set up before you can use this? I know what the wizard
does, but I don't understand what is needed or going on in the
background in order to get it to work properly. I have a msql table
and when I open the RDS Dataview and enter my password it opens up.
Everything seems to work fine until I select the 'Edit Master
Page' button, it doesn't work.
sammy

From what I understand this problem occurs on vista. The
solution is to uninstall flex builder 3 and reinstall it. When you
reinstall flex 3 you must right click on the the executable
(installation) file and select 'run as administrator'. This will
allow you to get into the query browswer when you select 'Edit
Master Page' inside of the cold fusion / flex wizard.
