Coldfusion essential training, working with databases

I am currrently working through the videos coldfusion9 essential training, the current folder is working with databases, after following the tutorial very carefully on section 4.08 "Creating an application directory and home page"
It states making a new project & naming it " Photo Gallery" after going through the process, of setting up the project and copying and pasting the relevant files into the folder, there are now four folders in the project namely" home, images, Image source and styles.css"
The tutorial then tells you to click on the "home" file and inside there are default.htm files, this file opens fine in the browser and shows all the details and banner and color, the tutorial goes on to say right click the default.htm file and change it to index.cfm
after making this change however and loading up the page as a cfm file all it shows is the text of the page with no banner or color
can anybody help to throw some light on the problem thanks

How OEM works with database

Hi,
We use OEM (12c),have db (11.2,10.2/1).
How OEM works with database?
When oem initated a job aginst db,What are the steps preformed by OEM?What are the info updated in OEM DB and Normal DB regading jobs?And Where?

At what point do you get this message?
Have a look at the Windows Service. Ensure the EM Agent is running. Your database and Listener may be running, but if the Agent is not running, you will not be able to see correct status.
Stop and start the Agent

OPA work with database repository

Does OPA work with database repository?

OPA does not provide direct database connectivity. Your application retrieves all necessary data, then passes it to OPA for performing auditable determinations and calculations.

ColdFusion Script not work with Httpservice

At first I use PHP to generate xml output on page then use
the data to my httpservice with resultformat e4x. Everything is
fine. But now I want to use coldfusion script since I'm planning to
use ColdFusion as my web server. I have this script located on my
server and generate the data in XML file then the XML file is used
in my web, loaded through httpservice.
My PHP code was like this :
<?php
define( "DATABASE_SERVER", "localhost" );
define( "DATABASE_USERNAME", "root" );
define( "DATABASE_PASSWORD", "" );
define( "DATABASE_NAME", "MyCinema" );
$mysql = mysql_connect(DATABASE_SERVER, DATABASE_USERNAME,
DATABASE_PASSWORD) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db( DATABASE_NAME );
$Query = "SELECT * FROM film";
$Result = mysql_query( $Query );
$Return = "<movies>";
while ( $film = mysql_fetch_object( $Result ) )
$Return .= "<film><judul>".$film->JUDUL.
"</judul><deskripsi>".$film->DESKRIPSI.
"</deskripsi><genre>".$film->GENRE.
"</genre><produser>".$film->PRODUSER.
"</produser><produksi>".$film->PRODUKSI.
"</produksi><homepage>".$film->HOMEPAGE.
"</homepage><durasi>".$film->DURASI.
"</durasi><url>".$film->URL."</url></film>";
$Return .= "</movies>";
mysql_free_result( $Result );
print ($Return);
?>
And now I try to get the same result using coldfusion script.
At first I dont write the XML to file, I just cfoutput it just like
I do with PHP just print result but it doesnt work out with my
HTTPservice. Until I try to write it to XML file then coding my
httpservice to read directly from that XML file. here is my
coldfusion code.
<cfcomponent>
<cffunction name="a" returnType="Void" output="true"
access="remote">
<cfprocessingdirective suppresswhitespace="Yes">
<cfquery name="GetFilm" datasource="myCinemaData">
SELECT b.* FROM playing a, film b
WHERE a.kode_film=b.kode_film AND a.start >
<cfqueryPARAM value = "#DateFormat(Now())#"
CFSQLType = "CF_SQL_STRING">
</cfquery>
<cfxml variable="userXML">
<movies>
<cfloop query="GetFilm">
<cfoutput>
<film>
<judul>#GetFilm.JUDUL#</judul>
<deskripsi>#GetFilm.DESKRIPSI#</deskripsi>
<genre>#GetFilm.GENRE#</genre>
<produser>#GetFilm.PRODUSER#</produser>
<produksi>#GetFilm.PRODUKSI#</produksi>
<homepage>#GetFilm.HOMEPAGE#</homepage>
<durasi>#GetFilm.DURASI#</durasi>
<url>#GetFilm.URL#</url>
</film>
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</movies>
</cfxml>
</cfprocessingdirective>
<cffile action="write"
file="#expandPath(".")#\userXML.xml" output="#userXML#">
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
Because I need to create the XML files first I try to execute
this coldfusion script first using webservice before I execute my
Httpservice but the XML file creation is slower than the execution
of my httpservice afterthat so it shows an error that my XML file
isn't not available. What can i do? I've tried to show the output
using cfoutput and run that script directly on my httpservice just
like the way I use print result on PHP but it produce an
error.

... I try to execute this coldfusion script first using
webservice before I execute my Httpservice but the
XML file creation is slower than the execution of
my httpservice afterthat so it shows an error
that my XML file isn't not available.
Then it might help to apply a named lock to ensure that the
Httpservice runs only after the web service call is complete. For
example, apply an exclusive named lock on the code that calls the
web service and a readonly lock of the same name to the Coldfusion
code that interacts with the Httpservice.

Date/Time erros when working with Database Connectivity toolkit

Hi!,
We are observing errors with date/time when working with LV. The error occurs when the system datetime format is set such that day precedes month (e.g. dd/mm/yyyy). Our VI uses LV 7.1, Database Connectivity 1.0 and SQL Server 2000 on a Win2000 machine.
Problem details
Our database in SQL server has a table having columns with data type "datetime"
If the system date format (as set in control panel) is "mm/dd/yyyy", the 'insert into database' vi works fine. This function inserts the date and time (among other things) into the above mentioned table.
However, when the system datetime is set to dd/mm/yyyy we start receiving error that date and time is beyond range for dates in which the date had the day field greater than 12 (e.g. 23/10/2005). With the same settings, if the date is such that day field is equal or less than 12 (e.g. 03/10/2005), we do not receive an error but the date is interpreted as 10 March 2005 rather than 03 September 2005.
Clearly LV (or is it SQL) is mistaking the day field as month.
We have taken care that when sending and receiving date, the format date and time string is set as per system settings.
Thus, if system setting is "dd/mm/yyyy" our format string is "%d/%m/%Y"
And if the setting is "mm/dd/yyyy" our format string is"%m/%d/%Y"
Any help on problem cause and cure is welcome.
Thanks,

Hi Xu,
You answer led me to some very interesting fact finding on how SQL server handles date and time. I have attached a zip file which contains webpages that throw more light on this issue.
The attached pages tell me that SQL has an inbuilt date/time reference format. The default in mm/dd/yyyy. Which explains why my VI worked when I used that format to write to SQL.
However there is a catch:
SQL expects the date/time to be in its inbuilt reference format when you WRITE data to SQL. If the date/time is in a different format, better tell SQL about it by using say the SET command you mentioned.
BUT what about the date/time format when you are reading data from SQL?
Our finding is that SQL sends date/time string in the system date format when you READ from SQL !!! That is very surprising behaviour (why differentiate between write and read?).
Is our finding correct?
So, we adopted the following simple strategy (yet to be fully tested):
1) Whenever we write date/time to SQL, the string is formatted as mm/dd/yyyy. Presently, the user's SQL server is in the default state. Caveat is that if the user changes SQL date/time from default (which is mm/dd/yyyy) to anything else, our software will give errors. But then he changed it ;-)
2) When we read date/time from SQL we format the string as per system date/time format.
I know this is not very robust coding. But assuming the user keeps his SQL in the current setting, should we expect smooth working?
In other words, are there any errors and/or flaws in our strategy?
Thanks,
Gurdas

Make LR work with database on a network drive

Although multiple users functionality would be great it is not what I mean with this. For starter it would be great to be able to have the database on a network drive so that several machines can use the same database (only one at a time).
I use my laptop most of the time but sometimes I want to work with my PC so having the database on a network drive would be great. As I already have all of my images on a network drive having the same drive letters on all machines is therefore not a problem.
I actually was able to do this with ACDSee. I could even have the cache on the network drive!

Ha! I was going to ask for this as well. Why does Lightroom even care whether the (Windows) drive letter happens to point to a local drive or to a remote drive? The underlying database software works with either.
Here's why I'd like this capability. I put important files like the LR database onto a remote drive so that I can then set that drive (or whatever folders I want on that drive) to be offline. There are a lot of benefits to this; some are: (1) it allows me to work with LR on my laptop when the laptop is not connected to my network and (2) I get two copies of the LR database automatically (one on the PC hosting the remote drive and one in the CSC folder on my laptop).
And as far as I can tell you cannot request a backup (or a restore for that matter) from the File menu. You have to wait until the time specified in the Preferences has elapsed before LR prompts you to do a backup. I'd much prefer to be able to do a backup on my own schedule, and outside of LR. And what do you do with the backup file(s) that LR creates when you need to do a restore? (I can't find a Restore command.)
Thanks.

Help with working with databases

Hello-
I'm familiar with the basics of Dreamweaver and now I want to
start working with dynamic content. To start, all I want to do is
create a page that has a form where users can input search criteria
to search a database and then are sent to a page that returns the
results. I found a tutorial somewhere else online but I couldn't
get it to work.
From what I can tell the process may be a bit lengthy, so I
don't expect that someone will post step-by-step directions in this
forum (although that would be awesome!). But, can anybody point me
in the right direction, or give me a basic run-down of what I need
to do to set this all up in Dreamweaver? I know I have to have a
server to work with and I'd like to use the IIS that comes with
Windows XP. I've got that all setup already, so now I just need to
know what to do to get the pages up and running.
Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

How to work with database files on an external hard drive (USB 2.0 or 3.0)

I have Oracle 11gR2 installed on my laptop. I would like to create a database instance on my laptop, but to put the datafiles on an external hard drive (USB 2.0 or 3.0). The external drive will always be attached to the laptop, whenever the database is used. This is going to be a development machine, just to develop a prototype. Laptop is limited to 150 GB on local disk and I want to have a 1 TB database on it. Can this be done with Oracle 11g for Windows XP SP2 ?
I presume that a network attached storage NAS device would be better solution, but I cannot attach it on my LAN.
Thank you,
Milan

Sure. You can put the data files wherever you'd like assuming that the external drive is going to be mapped to the same drive letter (I'm guessing your laptop is running Windows).

Which is the Best option to work with Database using Polling or AQ or Event

Hi,
We can initiate a BPEL process in a SOA composite from database using Database Polling . But few people suggest not to use polling because resource will always be busy polling and heavy load can cause issues.
So they suggest to use AQ to push message to initiate the BPEL process or SOA composite.
Is this true??
Also we can use EDN to intiate a process from PL/SQL.
So is it a better option than AQ.
What are the factors we should consider while using Poling ,AQ or Event based system?

Any pointer to this Question??

How i can associate my app user with database role

In my application (oracle forms application developed in-house - We are using Oracle Forms 11gR2 with WebLogic 10.3.5 ), i want to use "application user" instead of database user.
I have an application users table, actually, i have database users,and of course, menu application works with database roles (It was developed with oracle forms menu module), my question is, How i can associate my application user with database role, for reusing oracle forms menu funcionality?. It's possible?
Thanks,

Hi Edward
You can do this by assigning the role functionality to the application user. For example
create the table to enter user name.
create table to enter group name.
create table to assign user to group.
assign role to group.
assign functionality for the user by coding.
hope this helps

Working with audio | Learn Premiere Pro CS6 | Adobe TV

This movie introduces the robust audio tools in Premiere Pro. Abba Shapiro shows how to preview and trim audio in the Source Monitor. Whether it’s an audio-only file or the audio channel of a video clip, Abba shows how to enable sub-frame audio scrubbing and trimming. He also shows how to interpret clips to combine or separate stereo channels. At the same time, he introduces fundamental audio tools that are essential to working with audio in Premiere Pro.
http://adobe.ly/To00IZ

Is it possible to specify what audio channels to capture during capture from tape? It seems Premiere wants to mix the lavaliere mic and camera mic into a stereo track all the time, and then I have to modify audio settings and force it to mono in the project. In Final Cut pro 7, I am able to specify which audio tracks to capture, and this simplifies things in editing. I cannot see anywhere to do this in Premiere....

How to work with FKI1?

hi!
I need to make a report like fbl1n, but the credit column should be accumulative;
if fbl1n how these lines:
vendor     credit
500555    100
500555    120
50055      -30
my report should look like this:
vendor     credit
500555    100
500555    220
500555    190
i was advised by someone from this forum to use transaction fki1, but i
don't know how to work with in order to produced the desired report.
So, can anyone help me with this?
one last thing - transaction S_ALR_87012079 present accumulative credit of each
month, not every line of the vendor so i can't use it instead.

JSR 296 - How to work with arguments?

Hi Everyone,
I am developing an application by using a JSR 296 Swing Application Framework but I don�t make any idea about how I could manage a line-command arguments.
Should I try through Application.getInstance().getContext().getResourceMap() or something like that?
My intention is to get access to arguments within the method startup(). However, note that they are not directly available for use unless I create a array member and explicitly assign them to this new member (I suppose it must have a suitable way for doing this instead of I mentioned):
I am using Netbeans 6.0 beta 1 to create this application, under the option File < New Project < Java Desktop Application
See below a snippet. As you can see, I would like to get a value of the first argument passed by user from line command.
    * Main method launching the application.
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(MyApplication.class, args);
    @Override protected void startup() {
        // here I would like to access the arguments
        String firstArg = ?
        // show main frame
        show(new MyApplicationView(this));
    }Does anyone know how to make it possible?
