MS Access and Coldfusion

I am trying to set up a website that would have about 150
users (only login in a few times a year). I want to include a login
for admin and a simple page for voting for different issues
relating to the organization. I am somewhat confused if MS Access
is appropriate to use for this website. I have read that you
shouldn't use access for website but I also read about people using
it without problems too. I can understand access but not mysql. Any
advice would be great :)

Access is limited in the number of people who can access the
database
at the same time - usually somewhere around 12 to 15. Not
sure why
you can't understand MySQL. Get yourself PHPAdmin and learn.
Also
perhaps a very basic book like Database Design for Mere

  • Problem: Oracle auditing and Coldfusion pages.

    Oracle 10g has robust auditing functionality.  If you want to see who is inserting records into account.staff, you issue this command.
    audit insert on account.staff by access;
    It's done.   All inserts into the table are tracked by Oracle automatically.
    The good news is this works perfectly with asp pages.  With coldfusion-based webpages, the CF application server interposes itself between oracle and the user.  The result?  Key bits of auditing information (i.e., user id, pc IP address) are replaced with the Cold Fusion server values.
    For example, instead of seeing the user’s ID, or name the audit trail has SYSTEM.  Instead of the user’s pc hostname we see the CF server name and IP address.
    ·         Building table specific triggers using USERENV('sessionid')in Oracle does not help
    ·         Using cgi variables in the CF pages like REMOTE_ADDR  (IP address of the remote host making the request) or REMOTE_USER  or AUTH_USER  also does not offer reliable information either.
    What is the fix?
    Our setup.  We are using:
    Oracle 10g with auditing enabled
    Coldfusion server version 8.0.0.176276
    Windows 2003 server
    Internet Information Server version 6.0
    Windows integrated authentication
    All web auditing via IIS 6.0 works fine.  It is just Oracle auditing that is a problem.
    Thank you.

    I'm not familiar with Oracle; but I'll take a guess as to why the behavior is different between ASP and CF.  I suspect that the ASP pages access the database using Windows integrated authentication and impersonation of users.  If user [email protected] logs into the ASP site the [email protected] credentials are used for database access, and this is reflected in Oracle's auditing.  ColdFusion does not use integrated authentication so all data access is handled as the user credentials setup in the CF data source and using the IP of the CF server.  I don't think that this can be changed.  As far as I know CF does not support impersonation of Windows accounts.  However, I'm not an Oracle expect so if any of this is wrong please correct me.

  • Accessing a coldfusion 8 developer server from the outside?

    I just installed Coldfusion 8 Developer edition with the built in server on a windows 7 computer on my home network because i want to experiment with some things for a client.  I can access the coldfusion pages from localhost but i cannot access them from any other computer.
    I thought that the developer edition coudl be accessed from more than just the computer its running on.
    what am I missing?

    Hi,
    Are you able to browse other web pages ie HTM from other than localhost? I would think if other HTTP was accessible then CFM pages should be also.
    If HTTP pages are generally not accessible other than localhost -  perhaps there is a firewall block or there is not route to publish to the internet or LAN.
    If other HTTP pages are able to be browsed where as CFM not, perhaps CFM is only available via the “built-in webserver” on port 8501 (or similar) and you need to connect CF to IIS with “Web Server Configuration Tool” (WSCONFIG.EXE) tool.
    HTH, Carl.

  • Updating JVM (using IIS and Coldfusion)

    I recently created my first java class and compiled it using
    the new java SDK. I Registered my new CFX Tag and now I get this
    error "500 HelloColdFusion (Unsupported major.minor version 50.0)"
    when trying to access it in my .cfm test page. I read that this is
    because I used a new version of JVM to compile the class and the
    jvm coldfusion has installed is older. How do I update coldfusion
    to look at the new jvm ?

    This fixes ERROR "Unsupported major.minor version 49.0" and
    "Unsupported major.minor version 50.0" on my Windows Server 2003
    SP1 and Coldfusion MX 7.02 system.
    1. Make sure the ColdFusion service is stopped.
    2. Download JRun4 Updater from
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/jrun/updaters.ht...
    jrun4-win-en-updater.exe
    3. Install JRun4 Updater into the runtime folder of your
    ColdFusion install directory.
    C:\CFusionMX7\runtime
    4. Download and install Java JDK 1.5 (
    jdk-1_5_0_11-windows-i586-p.exe )
    5. Open both jvm.config files found in these directories:
    C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\bin
    C:\CFusionMX7\runtime\updater6-backup\bin
    6. Find the line that sets the java.home property under the
    "VM Configuration" heading ( change
    "java.home=C:/CFusionMX7/runtime/jre" to "java.home=C:/Program
    Files/Java/jdk1.5.0_11/jre" in both files.
    7. Restart coldfusion.
    I hope this saves you all time.

  • DPS and Coldfusion in Web content Folio Overlay

    InDesign CS6 with DPS on a Mac.  I create a frame and insert a Folio Overlay Web Content to access a Coldfusion Website page.   I get an error message that the asset cannot be located.  I tried redirecting the page using a . html page.  Same result.  Tried redirecting using .htm only and that appeared to work.  Is there some way I can use DPS Folio to access a Coldfusion page inside of the Web Content Overlay?

    Thanks Bob.
    Okay, so here are the steps I'm taking:
    1. Go to YouTube
    2. Copy embed code
    3. Go to InDesign
    4. Paste embed code
    This creates a web content area with the video embeded. So the user can click play on the video once it loads and can then click full screen on the video controls.
    What I'm trying to do is have a button on my page which links to a full screen view of the YouTube video so when the page loads the video doesn't load but when the user clicks the button it would then load the YouTube video full screen. I'm looking for the same functionality that is possible were I to embed an mp4 straight into my document, hide it, and then create a button that plays the video in full screen mode.
    Is the above possible?
    Thanks.

  • I have a late 2012 iMac running osx 10.8.5.  I keep losing access to my internal hard drive.  I can reboot and regain access and it will last for a few minutes or hours.  Disk utility does not seems to help.

    I have a late 2012 iMac with an I5 precessor running OSX 10.8.5 and a 1tb internal hard drive.  I keep losing access to the internal hard drive/startup disk.
    I can reboot and everything operates as normal for a few minutes or hours but then I lose all access again to anything on the hard drive.  The computer is still up and running but no files can be accessed and certain websites cannot be acessed even though internet access appears to be normal.  Disk utility can only find permission errors related to iTunes which can be repaired only to come back at the next scan (I would not think permission errors would have anything to do with the hard drive crashing).  It does not seem to matter what program I am using at the time access is lost and it can lose access sometimes right after reboot when no program is running.

    You will need to boot into the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during restart and select it) to run Disk Utility/Disk Repair.

  • I transferred files from a NAS server to the Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server and now some of the files have Custom Access and can't  be opened by some users.  How do I fix this?

    We're setting up our Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server, and in the process transferred files that had been stored and accessed from our Blackarmor NAS server over to the Mac.  These files were all created on PC's and are Office Excel files, WordPerfect files or PDF's.  When you look at the files on the Mac from the Mac and bring up Get Info for the affected file, it says that the file has Custom Access.  The files that work properly don't have that configuration.  I can access and open the files on some computers, but some users can't open the files from their computer even though they can see it.  We're all using PC's and they get the Error:  Access Denied-Contact your administrator--or something similar.  I've seen on the web similar issues and it may have something to do with ACL permissions.  I don't know enough about Mac OS to understand this, but what is baffling is that they can be opened from some PC's but not others, and all of the Users have the same accessibility to the files.  Thanks for a solution!!

  • Setting Opportunity Access and Contact Access to null in Account Team

    Hi,
    We can set the the Opportunity Access and Contact Access to blank/null manually in the application but is it possible to set these to blank using import?
    Thanks,
    Teena

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply. We have tried updating a record through Account Team > Import > Overwrite Existing Records where the Contact Access and Opportunity Access fields were blank. The import was successfull but the fields were not updated, they are still set to Full access. We used the Account EUID in the import file.

  • Account access and permissions issue

    When I try to synch my iPod, I am informed that I will lose my purchased music because my computer is not authorized. When I attempt to authorize the account in iTunes, I get an error stating that the required file is not found or permissions error. My apple account is easily accessed and can be used for purchases, but not for synching. I have tried deauthorizing my second computer and have checked for permissions errors, but can find none. I asked this question in the iPod section with no answers--it would appear to be a system problem rather than an iPod issue. Thanks for any ideas on how to solve this puzzle.

    One of the following articles should help you:

  • My account was accessed and unauthorized changes made by We R Wireless

    I recently became a ware of a very serious issue and have been getting little assistance from Verizon.  My account was password protected and had only 3 people identified as having the ability to make changes on my account.  I received a notice from Verizon regarding a change made on one of my lines.  Upon review it was an unauthorized change to add "Total Mobile Protection" to one of my lines for $9.00 a month.  Also in this notice was a credit which I was entitled to for a $10.00 Active Promotion.  I believe this credit was placed on the account so that the change might slip by unnoticed.   When I looked into the change it was made by a Representative from We R Wireless in Ship Bottom NJ.  I have never been to this store nor have I spoken with anyone ever at this store.
    After calling the store and confirming my account was accessed and unauthorized changes made, I was told by the manager that an employee had in fact accessed my account and made those changes.  I still could not understand how it was possible for the changes to have been made without my password.  The activity certainly looked very suspicious and I figured it had to do with commission to the representative for adding the insurance plan.  This was denied multiple times by the manager of the store as well as the District Manager.  In the meantime I had received multiple emails from We R Wireless in their attempts to "Make this go away"
    What came next was the most disturbing and upsetting part of this situation.  I was told by the District Manager of WE R Wireless that my information they had collected years ago during a purchase of a phone and activation INCLUDING MY PASSWORD and that they had kept it in their system!!
    WE R Wireless had shared my personally identifiable information and Password to my account with Sales representatives at the Ship Bottom WE R Wireless store  and that was how they accessed my account!!
    As you can imagine I have now been receiving multiple calls from The Director of Retail Operations, Musafa as well as the Director of Operations, Jimmy.  They are attempting to sweep this under the carpet and it is inexcusable and unacceptable.  The reason for this post is to WARN others who may have made purchases at anytime at a We R Wireless store that they KEEP YOUR PASSWORD and employees are given the Passwords and have made changes to accounts.  I cannot believe that I am the only one that this has happened to and I am concerned this is a widespread breech and more importantly is ILLEGAL.
    I will keep this Board updated with developments but can tell you so far Verizon has not been very responsive to my concerns but this is unacceptable and I am thinking of contacting the FCC as well as an Attorney.  In this day and age of Identity Theft this situation must be addressed by Verizon whether or not this was one rogue employee or not our PASSWORDS and other Information should never be shared nor kept without our knowledge.

    I can only tell you that the Verizon rep from the Fraud department as well as Verizon's legal department contacted me and said under no circumstances are these companies to retain Customer Passwords.  As you can see look at the potential for issues as evident in this situation.
    As far as the FCC and their responsibilities this is directly from the website
    The Federal Communications Commission regulates interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite and cable in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. territories. An independent U.S. government agency overseen by Congress, the commission is the United States' primary authority for communications law, regulation and technological innovation. In its work facing economic opportunities and challenges associated with rapidly evolving advances in global communications
    The agency investigates consumer issues such as Cramming which has occurred here if you go to the site you will see some of the recent fines for cramming levied by the FCC and it is a huge issue.  A consumer does not get involved in legal fees the FCC is responsible to investigate consumer claims of fraud and regulates the industry.  The Attorney General also takes this very seriously as well.
    Cramming - Unauthorized Charges on Your Phone Bill
    Cramming Settlement for Consumers Announced
    Dec. 19, 2014: The FCC, along with the FTC and state attorneys general, announced a $90 million settlement with T-Mobile regarding unauthorized charges - commonly known as "cramming" - on phone bills.
