MS ACCESS, ColdFusion and Image Problems

I have done this before using PHP and Mysql and it was pretty
simple. I now need to do this in ColdFusion and MS Access 2003.
I want to store logos in a database. After reading up on it,
I found that you store images in Access using the OLE Object
Datatype - done. Now the real fun part starts.
I am trying now to display these logos from the MS Access
2003 database onto a webpage using Coldfusion. I have looked into
it, and one article suggested using the BLOB type - which is what
you do in MySQL, but in MS Access that option is not available. So
I looked into it somemore, and it seems that there are three
functions that you need to use, and they are in Visual Basic -
provided in part by Microsoft, but it seems EXTREMELY way too
complicated for simply displaying an image staored in a Database.
Has anyone been able to store and display images using MS
Access and Coldfusion before? If so, could you guide me?

The reason for storing the image in the database is that our
company wants it that way for portability reasons. Filenames
change, directories get lost when moving from one system to
another. Databases are easier to backup and are more efficient when
it comes to searching metadata. We have over 300 logos we must
store for our different organizations - having a directory for each
is complicated.
Has anyone had issues like this with Coldfusion and MS
Access? If so could you guide me?
-Thanks

  • MS Access 2010 and TFS problem when I try to "create form team foundaition"

    I am using MS Access 2010 and trying to use TFS for source control.
    I installed MSSCCI for 2010 and the "Access Developer Extensions"
    I am able to create a project in TFS and check in and check out access objects.
    My only problem is when I click on "Create from Team Foundation" it asks me to specify the server and when I click OK it gives me the following error message:
    "Cannot create a new Microsoft Access database from this source code control project. It contains neither a Data and Misc. objects file nor a database name file."
    I have tried different ways and could not get it to work.
    Thanks for your help

    Did you figure out a solution for this!>?
    I am having the same issue.  I can issue a GET and bring down all the objects (including the very files that it says it can't find) - then when "creating from team foundation" I get the same problem.

  • Passwords and images problem

    Firefox image problem. In Firefox 3.6.12, every time I save an image that's already displayed on my screen, I see "one active download" appear in the bottom right of Firefox's window and the same image is also listed in downloads. The problem is that Firefox doing that uses more bandwidth. How do I set Firefox so that when I save an image, instead of that image getting re-downloaded from where it's stored on the internet, it's copied from wherever Firefox has it stored to display it so Firefox doesn't use as much bandwidth? Tools/options/advanced/network/offline storage is set to 50mb.
    Firefox password problem. Tools/options/security/passwords has "remember passwords for sites" checked and there is nothing in my exceptions list. But Firefox keeps forgetting passwords, usually after restarting Firefox and or my whole system and on some sites, I don't even get asked "do you want to remember..." How do I fix this?
    I do have CCleaner and it's set to run at startup, but all the boxes for Firefox are unchecked, so it's not the cause of either problem.

    @cor-el
    OK, I'll give that extension a try and see what happens, thanx! :-)
    @venemovil
    I right click and either select "save image as" or if I want to save an image to more than one location, I select "view image" and then use ctrl+s. Both results in Firefox re-downloading the image as I described above. It happens on every site I visit.
    The password problem never happened before, but I will try disabling my extensions one at a time and see if it happens only whan a particular extension is turned on.
    This is a screenshot of the extensions I do have installed.

    I've also noticed that Firefox is forgetting what sites I've visited recently (I type in part of the url of sites I've visited sometimes as recently as a few hours ago and the entire url isn't in the suggested list) and I keep having to put the Fire FTP Button back in the toolbar (next to the home/stop/reload/back-forward buttons). That may be related to the pasword problem. I don't know.

  • Access metadata and images using Lightroom API

    It would be great to access the images in the Lightroom library from outside Lightroom (including all post-processing of course). This would enable 3rd party applications to integrate the library into the application. This is especially useful for media centers.

    You would really need a shared catalog and image files on an external hard dive. Then connect the ehd to either machine, as needed.
    I personally use a master catalog on my desktop machine and a travel catlog on my Macbook pro. That lets me shoot photos, apply metadata and edit them on the road and when I get home I simply import the travel catalog into the combined master catalog.
    This video tutorial from Adobe Evangelist Julieanne Kost gives a demonstration of how to use a travel catalog on-location.

  • Autosave and image problems in Pages 5

    I opened a doc from previous Pages version in new Pages 5 and got repeated Autosave errors. They said the file could not be autosaved as it was created by another application and the location could not be found.  I then I saved it as a new document with a new name and when I opened it had removed all the figures. Any ideas why? This is a huge disappointment as I have relied on Pages as the "Anti-Word" to be stable and reliable

    UPDATE
    Some problems solved
    Notice : I use a the french version. I'll try to use the right terms to get me understanded.
    About those functions : group, ungroup, align, distribute... They get available when :
         - you first select one or more objects
         - in the Format Window at right you choose the « Arrange  » menu.
         - Then you select (I'm not shure about this one in english) « Stay on the page ». Don't select « With text ». SEE IMAGE INSERTED here.
    Now, what about the vertical ruler? I guess it's all gone in this version.
    Also, to easily select multiple et specific objects I didn't find any way better then the shift-click avery one of them. Bummer.

  • EP 6.0 SP2 KM Access control and version problems

    Hi,
    We have installed EP 6.0 SP2 and have configured KM. We have created a File system repository pointing to a shared folder in the local drive. Now, we are facing the following 2 problems:
    1. Access Control for Resources (folders and files) are not working..i.e, even though, we have given 'Read' access to a particular folder for a given portal user, he is still able to delete, rename, etc. How do we tackle this? Is there any property to be set for ACL to work.
    ACL Manager Cache : ca_rsrc_acl
    Security Manager  : AclSecurityManager
    are used for this particular file system repository.
    2. For the very same file system repository, we are not able to get the option 'versioning' for any of the folders. while for other folders in Content Management (CM) repository, 'versioning' property appears. Why is this so? Is there any setting to be done for the property 'versioning' to appear for a file system repository?
    Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Pavithra

    Hi,
    Thanks so much for the quick response. It was quite helpful. The problem is that while trying to set up W2Ksecurity manager, the system component monitor shows the following error:
    Startup Error:  Exception during start up of sub-manager: The W2kSecurityManager can only be run under Windows 2000 operating systems.
    Portal server is installed on Microsoft Windows 2003 server. But the file system repository is mapped to a shared drive whose host machine runs Microsoft windows 2000 professional.
    My Questions:
    1. Do I have to have Microsoft Windows 2000 ONLY for portal installation.
    2. Can I not have a shared folder mapped to another local machine's directory
    3. Also, Any ideas on whats the max length of file path for KM..Because, its likely that the file path length may extend to more than 200 characters..
    Please help me in this regard.
    Thanks in advance.

  • RTL8101 and Imaging Problem

    ZFD 7.0.1
    We have some Toshiba laptops with RTL8101e lan.
    The systems fails to go to load the imaging system due to failed DHCP requests. It looks like it's autodetected an older realtek card, but on the log screen in says the link is down.
    How do I build new drivers for the 8101?

    OK, got mine working. The r1000 driver in the latest driver pack (Feb
    09) is compiled against the wrong version of kernel and won't load on my
    system. I installed SLED 10SP2 on a spare workstation to get the correct
    kernel version (2.6.16.60-0.21-default) and compiled the Linux driver for
    my chipset (r6186) from realtek.com site.
    Then i opened the initrd file and copied my new module into the correct
    folder. I also had to edit the linuxrc.config file to change the newid
    line that matched my card from r1000 driver to r8168 driver. then I
    repackaged the initrd file and copied it my pxe server. the driver loads
    and I can image OK. the kernel complains about unsupported modules
    causing U taint but it does work.
    I used TID 3421576 and zen documentation to complete the process. look
    there for further details.

  • Preview and images problem

    Hi, everybody, I am new to these topics. I recently upgraded my wife`s MacBook to a 160 Gb HD and 2Gb Memory (one 2 Gb in one slot). Everything worked great till the moment she received a pen drive with some photos. Since then, Preview stoped working. It opens in the dock but it does not open any pictures nor pdf´s nor anything (It does fast preview). Even when one tries to attach a picture to a mail then Safari (4.0) crashes. I tried many things: repair disk permisions; repair disk; Safe boot; but nothing works. Then also tried to reboot from its Install disk; to Archive and Install (it did not); but now, it is not mounting any DVD nor Cd´s. It is a very difficult situation if anybody can help, we would appreciate. Thanks in advance.

    Looks like you were doing the right thing. Acrobat.com had some issue yesterday afternoon and I encountered similar problem then. However the problem was solved and I was able to upload images fine in the evening. When did you encounter the problem? If it was about the same time frame, could you try again and see if it is better now?

  • Firefox hotspot and image problems

    i have a major problem with hotspots on my images. the links on the hotspots do not work in firefox. also, the image align is completely messed up. It works fine in ie, i simply have 2 .gif images next to each other, and in firefox, the images appear on top of each other.
    even worse! - all links do not work on firefox, they are simple links placed on images! only one image has a working link, all the other images dont work on firefox!

    The answer lies in the code. Post a URL to the problem page, and someone can take a look. Otherwise it's simply guesswork.

  • URL and Image problems

    When placing a URL on an image the URL is not working when the page is uploaded. I have no idea why. It worked in previous versions of dreamweaver but not with CS6.

    Code? Website?
    Your code should look something like this:
    <a href="YourURL"><img src="YourImage" alt="" /></a>

  • Bridge CS6: How do you write a script to assign a shortcut to "Batch" and "Image Processor"?

    Many times a day I need to access "Batch" and "Image Processor" in Bridge.
    There is no shortcut, so I have to go the Tools-Photoshop-Batch and Tools-Photoshop-Image Processor menu - the items I need are locked into a second level menu.
    Which is impractical.
    I remember, when I started out with Photoshop many years ago, I downloaded "Deke Keyes" from Deke McClelland, which included keystrokes for "Batch" and "Image Processor".
    From the Bridge forum I learned that you cannot assign shortcuts in Bridge CS6.
    So the general opinon was that a script was used to assign the shortcuts.
    Could you please tell me how to do that?
    Thanks!
    PS: I tried to assign shortcuts via the Mac OS X Mountain Lion keyboard preferences (applications), but it did not work.

    Hi,
    in the exit:Event of the 1st date field add this FormCalc script:
    DateField2 = Num2Date(Date2Num($.formattedValue, "DD.MM.YYYY") + 21, "DD.MM.YYYY")
    You may have to change th date pattern  "DD.MM.YYYY" in the way you need it.

  • I have installed ACDSee Pro3 and have problem to transfer photofiles from device: I got the message; The item could not be edited because you do not have sufficent access privileges or destination volume is no longer available." What can I do?

    I have installed ACDSee Pro3 and have problem to transfer photofiles from device: I got the message; The item could not be edited because you do not have sufficent access privileges or destination volume is no longer available." What can I do?

    Ask the ACDSee Pro support personnel. 
    With iPhoto that message means the library is a referenced library (photo not copied when imported into iPhoto's structure) and the source file is not where it was when first added to the library.  I don't know how ACDSee works. Does it have a referenced mode as opposed to copying photos into its structure?

  • Problem: codebase, jar and image reloading problem please help!

    Hi Java Gurus,
    I have written an applet that extends JApplet for viewing webcam. In order to reduce the download time I put my classes into a doorcam.jar file. The following is my <applet> tag in my html file.
    <applet code="CameraApplet.class"
    archive="doorcam.jar"
         codebase = "webcam/classes"
         width="375" height="475">
    <param name="imagePath" value="http://judge/webcam/images">
    <param name="webCamImage" value="door.jpg">
    <param name="COMPort" value="COM2">
    <param name="frameRate" value="10"> <!-- could not exceed more than 10-->
    <param name="host" value="judge">
    </applet>
    The fist problem is that my class file does not get loaded from the jar file if i provide the "codebase" attribute as above. Instead the browser load every single class file from the webserver. This has some problem too. Coz the browser sometimes just thorough NullPointerException or ClassNotFoundException. After much of debugging I found out that the problem is the IE browser which seldom fails to load classes or image file from the server. If i referesh the browser the applet and all its classes loaded successfully and runs smoothly. This behaviour never occurs when running with "appletviewer".
    I wanted all my classes to be loaded from my jar file. After much of trial and error I found out that if i remove "codebase" attribute the browser loads the classes from my jar file and applet loads very fast. This is where the second problem comes in. The browser does not reload my webcam image file so that the webcam become alive with live images, like before.
    If I run on "appletviewer" everything works fine my web cam is displayed properly. But in IE browser the image does not get reloaded when I refresh my image to give live to my webcam display. The refresh method is given below.
    private void refresh(final URL url) {
    Image webCamImage =getImage(url);
    webCamImage.flush(); // flush out the previous image
    webCamImage = getImage(url); // get a new image
    webCamImageIcon.setImage(webCamImage); webCamImageIcon.paintIcon(webCamLabel, webCamLabel.getGraphics(), 15, 15);
    When I add the "codebase" attribute back, the image gets reloaded for every refresh() and everything works fine. But the classes are also loaded from the server. And occasionally also suffers Class loading and image loading problem. As I presented earlier, when I do refreshing in the browser everything gets loaded and the applet function correctly with web cam displaying very well.
    The problem is so strange that I could not find any way to solve it.
    It would be a great help to me if somebody provide me some work around to the problem.
    I tested on Windows 2000, Windows XP, IE 5.5, IE 6 with J2SDK 1.4.0.
    Thank you all very much in advance.
    best regards,
    Judge

    Thank you so much for the suggestions. I did tried the way u suggested. The problem still the same.
    I think its the problem between IE browser and Java Plug-in.
    I which SUN would find these incompatibilities and solve these problems.
    I even tried using java SDK and plug-in 1.4.1 it even worst. It can't even load an applet. And it does not show any loading messages nor any error messages. It just show a cross sign on the upper left coner.
    I would be so glad, if Sun would try to eliminate the inconsistancies such as caching, loading, initializing etc between browser and its Java plug-In. For example, applets behave well in appletviewer and behave unpredictably in browser environment.
    I have seen so many people in the forums with all sorts of problems because of this.
    Right now I m desperately looking for work around to my problem.
    If somebody would provide me with the solution to my problem it would be a great help to me.
    thank you all so much.
