DSN and cfreport

Dear all,
Let's say I have one application where users can choose to
connect to more than one databases (live, development, etc).
I use one DSN for each database connection, so in this moment
I have 3 databases with 3 DSNs.
My question is how to let the cfreport know which DSN to use.
I tried to use <cfreport datasource = "#Session.gStrDSN#">
but it doesn't work. Datasource property is used only by Crystal
Report.
Looking forward for your reply.
Thanks in advance
Keiko

<cfreport has one attribute called "query". We need to
pass one query object for this attribute value. This query object
should have all the data and columns required for the report.
To generate the CF report we need to run the query against
the DB first to get the QUERY object. LIke:
<cfquery name="myQuery" datasource="Session.gStrDSN">
SELECT .........
</cfquery>
Then we can generate the CF report we can use this QUERY
object. Like:
<cfreport template="myTemplate.cfr" query="myQuery"
format="PDF">
</cfreport>
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks

Cfchart and cfreport issues in 7.0.2

I've seen a few posts on people having issues with cfchart
and cfreport upon upgrading to 7.0.2
The specific issue I was having were that the cfcharts no
longer showed up and the cfreports where getting some sort of a
null error.
The fix:
in the lib dirrectory of your cf install dir (for me with
jrun it was
C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF\cfusion\lib)
there are 2 files: commons-digester-1.3.jar and a 1.7.jar the 1.3
version should have been deleted by the updater but was not, so
just rename it to something like .old and then restart coldfusion.
Everything should be working as it was before 7.0.2 now.

You
rock, John2!
I recently upgraded to 7.0.2 and has the same CFCHART problem
afterward that many other people encountered (i.e. Flash charts
would no longer appear when viewed using Internet Explorer). Your
recommendation worked perfectly. Thank you very much!

DSN and NDR

Because of the issue with Apple and killing email messages from mail servers that use DSN. My question is can I disable DSN and still receive NDR?
Thanks

Yes
NDR is a part of much older part of the SMTP standard set than DSN. I
was getting NDRs long before we even had DSN as an option.
NDRs were specified as a part of return codes way back in RFC 821
(1982) https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc821#page-34
DSN was introduced 21 years later in RFC3461 (2003)

Difference between system dsn and file dsn

what is the difference between file dsn and system dsn

System dsn will always be available in the system (it is saved in the system registry) and it's not depends on who created the dsn, but file dsn will depends on a file, so if somebody else use the system, the file dsn might not be available for this person.

Request.dsn and error

I am working on a site and I have two databases. I used the
Request.DSN in the application.cfm for the first data base...but
how can I do something similar for the second? I would rather not
have to go back and rename everywhere the database is listed in the
site to make it match the server after upload.
Also, my second question. I am trying to allow users to
update there information. The site works perfectly on my computer
but after I upload it ...one of my update forms doesnt work. All
the others do..however this one uses the username from a session
variable.Why would it work on my computer but not when its uploaded
to the remote server? See below.
Thanks

If a local mailaccount can't receive, I see that DSN is sent to the mail of mailgroup instead of return-path (the sender).
In the example above,
If <[email protected]> send mail to <[email protected]> and local account <[email protected]> can't recevice, then the DSN is sent to <[email protected]> and not to <[email protected]>.
I would like that DSN are sent to return path of original mail, and not to the address list. What I have to do?
I thank you very much

Hi,
If a local mailaccount can't receive, I see that DSN
is sent to the mail of mailgroup instead of
return-path (the sender).Correct. This is what distinguishes a mailing group from a mailing list.
In the example above,
If <[email protected]> send mail to <[email protected]>
and local account <[email protected]> can't recevice, then
the DSN is sent to <[email protected]> and not to
<[email protected]>.
Yep expected behaviour.
I would like that DSN are sent to return path of
original mail, and not to the address list. What I
have to do?I would advise that for the vast majority of cases, this is not a good idea. Ideally you should be sending the email to somebody who can do something about it (list maintainer/owner).
For example if "I" as a third party send an email to a mailing list which I have no idea who maintains, or how to get it fixed, what use is it to send me a bounce email if one of the mailing list recipients didn't get a copy? There is little I can do about it and it also exposes a member of the list (who you may want to keep hidden for some reason).
You can set who receives the bounce using the mgrperrorsto: attribute. This must resolve to a single email address (as the return-path: can only be a single address). e.g.
mgrperrorsto: [email protected]
To get the 'old' iMS5.2 behaviour of bouncing back to the sender (which as I said earlier, is not advised), you can use the '/' address. (note: I know this works in the new 2006Q4 version, not sure whether it was back-ported to 2005Q4, so results may vary).
e.g.
mgrperrorsto: /

Creating a multisim compatable model from DSN and .lib files

I'm attempting to model the texas instruments TX810 in multisim however the only model available is a PSPICE compatable model. This consists of a data source name (DSN) file, a .lib file (which when inspected in a text editor appears to be the most similar to a .cir file), a .olb and .opj files. There are also .sim files, .mrk and .prb file which I'm assuming are simulation parameters. I've attempted to model the .lib file by importing it into a custom component within multisim, unfortunately this method caused multiple netlist errors when I attempted simulation.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
many thanks

DSN and Return Receipt

Neither of these seem to be working.
I have an up-to-date version of Thunderbird installed (24.3.0). I compose an email, click on options, and check off both Return Receipt and Delivery Status Notification. I have tested this with various email addresses. The additional header never shows up anywhere--it appears that nothing is happening when I select these options (and nothing happens on the recipients' ends, and I never receive any notifications afterward). Please advise. Thank you!

11.1.1.6.4 Repository variables for DSN and USER do not work after upgrade

Hi,
The Repository Variables OLAP_DSN and OLAP_USER no longer work after upgrading to 11.1.1.6.4 i.e they return a connection error when trying to import metadata but the connection is correct if explicitly set without the variable used.
I have tried the following resolution:
- From command line execute commands to set variable properties via admintool.exe /command vartext.txt
Open rpdname user password
SetProperty "Variable" "OLAP_DSN" Initializer "'ORCL.GLOBAL'"
Save
Close
Exit
This script works fine as demonstrated by commenting out Save, Close, Exit and running. But it does not resolve the problem.
The issue is consistent as in the OLAP_USER variable does not work if DNS for connection pool set to ORCL.GLOBAL.
Is this a bug?
Thanks in advance

Encrypting communication between an app that uses an ODBC/DSN (with ADODB) and SQL Server 2008 R2

I've been doing a lot of reading the last couple of days on how we can encrypt db communication between our product app and a customer's SQL Server db, but cannot make it work as expected. The app uses a ODBC/DSN to connect to the SQL Server db. I use this
ODBC app to setup the DSN (on a Windows 7 PC):
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
The DSNconnection uses the SQL Server driver 6.01.7601.17514 and has these properties:
- WinNT authentication.
- Client Config button: TCP/IP to <server-name>\<instance.-name>
- Change to default db: <name-of-app-db>
- Everything else is default setting.
SQL Server is on the same Windowns 7 PC and has a self-signed cert installed (used IIS to generate it) and has the Force Enryption set to "yes".
I have a test C# program that uses the ADODB 2.7.0.0 COM-wrapper, made by Visual Studio after adding a reference to the ADO 2.7 library version 6.1.7601.17857. The program creates an ADODB.Connection object that has a simple connection string: "DSN=<san-name>;UID=<user>;PWD=<password>". The
program then creates an ADODB.Recordset object and reads and displays a field from a table.
Works fine.
If I go into SQL Server and set Force Encryption to "no," clear the cert, restart the SQL service, and then re-run the program, it works fine.
Here's the kick. If I go into the DSN and select "Use strong encryption for data" the Test button on the DSN works—why does it work? The SQL Server is no longer encrypting the connection so an error should occur. If I run the test program, it works
as well—why? I can look at the connection properties in the test program and see that ADODB has added the ";Encrypt-yes" stuff to the end of the connection string. Yet that option seems to have no effect.
If I set the SQL instance back to Force Encryption:yes, enable the cert, restart the SQL service, and clear the DSN's "Use strong encryption for data" option, I can still connect to the db with the
test program—why?
What am I doing wrong? I need to be able to ensure that the communication between our app product and the SQL instance is encrypted, and that we get an error if the SQL instance does not support encrypted communications. We really don't want the customer
to have to enable Force Encryption because they have other db's on their SQL Server that do not use encrypted communication, but they want to know that our product's communication channel with the db is encrypted.
No, I can't change the app product's code at this point in time. I'm stuck with working with what a DSN called from ADODB has to offer.
Also, how can I be sure that communications are encrypted? I mean, I've tried things like "SELECT * FROM sys.dm_exec_connections" but that doesn't help because I have no idea how to tie the list of sessions shown back to my test program, although
I guess it's a good thing that some of the sessions listed show encrypt_option as TRUE.
-glenn-

Ah yes, very good point. It's easy to miss because you have to delete then recreate the DSN in order to change drivers. So I switched the DSN over to the SQL Native 11 driver.
Now when I try to connect to the SQL instance as <computer-name>\<instance-name>, and without a cert on the server, I get "the target principal name is incorrect". Perfect; now we're getting somewhere!
Change my DSN to use <fqdn>\<instance-name> and it works. This tells me that SQL Server has auto-generated a cert and named it <fqdn>. I would have expected the "cert fail" error, not a cert
name mismatch, because I'm not using Trust Server Cert.
So I load up my self-signed cert, and that works too.
I am still confused as to why I'm not seeing the "cert fail" error when I have no cert loaded on the SQL Server. I am not using Force Encryption on the server at all, so wouldn't expect SQL Server to auto-create a cert when an Encrypt=yes request comes in,
but apparently it does?
I also ran into a problem with this:
select c.session_id, c.encrypt_option, s.client_interface_name
from sys.dm_exec_connections c
join sys.sysprocesses s
on c.session_id = s.session_id
where s.dbid = db_id('MyDatabase')
There is no s.client_interface_name, probably should be s.hostname. There's also no s.session_id. I thought maybe this should be s.sid, but then no rows ever come back. The c.session_id looks like 51 and 52, but the s.sid looks like a very long binary number,
so these two fields cannot be joined. I don't know how to convert the sid's properly so that the join would work. Ah wait, I just found the s.spid column; the join works when that column is used (I assume that's correct anyhow).
If I add a Thread.Sleep(30 seconds) to my C# program just before the connection is closed, this query shows me the session for the correct hostname has encrypt_option=TRUE.
And I have to keep my fingers crossed that all the app I/O will still work properly after
changing the driver. Probably a safe bet though.
Think I'm ready to throw in the towel on getting the "cert fail/no SSL" error to appear.
It does look like I am able to sufficiently show that the connection is encrypted when Encrypt=yes is used with the newer driver.
Thank for all the help!

Automatically create ODBC DSN connection with special port and password. Add-OdbcDsn cmdlet

Hi,
I first posted a question in the SQL forum but I'm posting it here instead because its a Powershell question.
In a non-persitent VDI enviroment we are trying to automatically create a ODBC DSN connection to a SQL server.
We are using Windows 8.1 so we also have Powershell 4 together with the add-odbcdsn cmdlet.
But when trying to add set -SetPropertyValue for network port different than default and a password we get an error.
here is the command:
Add-OdbcDsn -Name test -DriverName "SQL Server" -DsnType User -SetPropertyValue @("PWD=test", "SERVER=10.0.0.1")
and here is the error message:
Add-OdbcDsn : Attempt to set the {UID or PWD} key of a DSN. These keys should not be stored in the registry for securit
y reason. Provide the credential information at runtime via SQLDriverConnect, SQLConnect or SQLBrowseConnect.

NB!: this command does not contain a port number, but when adding it without a password(PWD string) we just the default port.

Hi Primeid,
Agree with Jrv, we cannot store UID and PWD in an ODBC datasource, For example, you can create a DSN using the user interface but if you look at the DSN stored in the registry the UID and PWD are not stored.
ODBC it is always required when you connect using a DSN that the caller supply UID and PWD if they want to use standard login during connection time.
These similar discussion are for your reference:

CF DSN 'loses track' of tables and views

... but only in one database and only at a certain time (around 8am). We have a manual solution, Open the DSN and switch the server name to Network alias or vice versa and save - but why does this work? Ae we refreshing the connection pool? I've increased the connection pool from 100 - 200, decreased the timeout to 10 minutess and checking to 3 minutes and, t.urned off autogenerate keys We've completed SQL traces, CF DSN logs, and tested different DNS entries, nothing notable yet.
We checked with networking folks, they are not backing up at this time... anyone have something we haven't tried or should have tried a different way or can suggest a way to test to pinpoint the problem?
Our infrastructure is WinServ 2008 w/ SQL2008r2 and a Winserv2008 and CF9 (it doesn't look like we have the right version to use cold fusion monitor)
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Fast answer: Whatever causes this error, the resolution was to change the ColdFusion DSN (CFDSN) to an IP address instead of Server name or Server Alias.
Details: The first occurrence of the error is March 15th, 8:28 AM (It is probably worth asking network folk if anything changed around this time). From this point, the error started everyday between 8 and 8:05AM and would seemingly randomly continue until the CFDSN was refreshed by changing Server name to Server Alias or vice versa (we had not tested IP address at this point). The first error (yes the table does exist):
"Error","jrpp-2175","03/15/11","08:28:59","wxxx","Error Executing Database Query.[Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Invalid object name 'Cxxxxxl'. The specific sequence of files included or processed is: C:\xxxxx.cfm, line: 302 " coldfusion.tagext.sql.QueryTag$DatabaseQueryException: Error Executing Database Query.
Research: In the URL’s below most center around bad caches of DNS. The one suggestion of refreshed tables and Select * statements, seems feasible, but wasn’t supported by any other articles and I could not find any Select all statements on the website… but if this is purely a DNS caching issue, why didn’t the other testing CFDSN’s cause errors? Is the DNS cache specific to a CFDSN?
Testing: I set up three DSN’s to match the only DSN failing, JGData. The only difference being Server name, Server Alias and IP were the sources in the test CFDSN’s. I set up test.cfm to cycle through the CFDSN’s with cftry/catch so we could record any errors every 5 minutes…. But no errors. I added the live CFDSN, JGData, and we started picking up failures which is how we pinpointed the 8-8:05 window.
From there it was just trying different permutations till one stuck. If time allowed and the work around was somehow problematic, I’d want to figure out how to replicate the error then experiment with different permutations (Would ODBC Socket eliminate the problem, the Java solution provided in couple of the articles below, etc). FWIW, I wouldn’t rule out some kind of anomaly with our virtual environment just b/c I know so little about it.
N E Way. It’s fixed and brain dumped. Marching on.

Trying to simply connect to Oracle with VBscript/ASP - and I cannot.

This is rather embarrassing. I am pretty fluent with ASP and VBscript, and I have written many a web application connecting to Microsoft SQL Server. Now I have a need to connect to an Oracle database, and I'm beating my head against the wall.
1) Web server is Windows Server 2003 SP1
2) Using ASP (not ASP.NET) & VBscript
3) I have installed the Oracle drivers on the server - it is version 10g
4) The administrator of the Oracle database to which I want to connect has created a username and password for me to use from within my code
5) Here is the code I am trying to run:
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConn.Open "Provider=MSDAORA;Data Source=XXXXXXX;User Id=YYYYYYY;Password=ZZZZZZZ;"
That's it. 2 lines of code just trying to establish a connection. Using the user name and password provided to me by the administrator, and for Data Source I am using the IP address of the Oracle server (like I have done in the past when connecting to SQL Server). I receive the following error message when viewing this in a browser:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle error '80004005'
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Evidently, the Data Source I am using is not correct, but I was provided no other information from the admin. This is the first time any of us have tried to connect to Oracle using ASP/VBScript, so the administrator isn't sure what I need to do ... any help would be so appreciated.

Hello,
I got mine to work by setting up an ODBC System DSN and connecting to it. I think this bypasses the Microsoft driver, which might be what's causing the problem.
Set Db = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Db.Open "DSN=TEST;User ID=userid;Password=password;"
Good luck, I've found it requires a lot of persistence...
