Reading ASP Session Variables in CF

We have an old ASP application that we would like to
integrate some CF Reporting reports into. There are a couple of
seession variables stored in ASP that I would like to get. Is there
a way/workaround to reading these variables into CF?
Thanks,
James

> I thought that was going to be the case... I was just
worried about user's saving shortcuts to URL variabled pages...
This will get me started... Thanks.
What about writing a gateway web service for passing session
info between
application server platforms (I've not tried this sort of
thing between CF
and ASP, but have done so CF->CF and it worked OK)? This
would be a bit
more foolproof than using form submissions or URLs.

  • Read a session variable

    I have set a session variable "var1" in the pagedef using ADFUtil.setEL("#(sessionScope.var1)",myValue);
    How do I read this session variable, "var1" in select statement in a View Object please?
    Thanks

    Do NOT try to access the variables stored in a scope in a view controller project directly in the Model layer. It breaks the MVC paradigm.
    For your use-case,
    1) Create a View Object with a View Criteria that has a single bind variable.
    2) Have a method in AMImpl that takes a single parameter and applies the View criteria for the View Object Instance in 1) by setting the value for the bind variable with the input parameter and execute the View Object and expose this method through client interface.
    3) Use this method in ViewController project and Invoke the method.

  • Read asp-session or cookie

    hi!
    there's an asp-login page that holds a session with login information.
    this asp page then calls my jsp page.
    the problem is that i wanna access this login information stored in the asp-session from my jsp.
    how can i archieve this?
    is there a way to access to the asp-session or the cookie?
    thx in advance

    easiest way is to forward response from ASP (these ASP has to be invoked after the login form is submitted - post method) to JSP and get the required parameter
    there are two possibilities
    1) directly u get values of by request.getParameter("username")
    0r
    2) pass parameter and values from ASP page as myjsppage?username=test
    hope these solve your probs...my prob is dukes...
    bye for now

  • Reading a session variable from a dynamic action

    I have a select list on a page and a button next to the select list. The button calls a dynamic action which opens a page and sends the value in the select list. The page is not submitted. The DA has a step with a dummy PL/SQL block that submits the select list item. Then the page is called with the select list in the URL.
    The value is not being sent. If I go into edit mode then run the page again then the correct value is sent.
    When I look at session in Administration the select list is in session and set properly but is not sent unless the page is submitted.
    Why if it is in session is it not being passed correctly? What does submitting the page do other than update session?

    Hi,
    could you share the exception trace ?

  • Unable to fetch session variables in my application page code behind

    hi,
    my env:  1  WFE  server which hosts the  central admin and my web appln,  1 sql server box  
    i am having a custom web part[ listviewbyquery web part]  which populates the site collection/ sub site's document library contents . also it reads some query string values and pushes these  values into  session variables.
    and i am having another application page in this application which reads this session variables and  perform some operation in a custom sql db. But i am unable to read these session variables on page load of this  application page.
    am unable to debug also. so, would like to know is there any way i can see, what values  are getting passed to this page and verify the session variables are accessed correctly.
    or
    is this  by design, that its not possible to read session variables in the application page ?
    if i am not having a visual studio env. to debug, how to test these  session variable  existence / to find the root cause of this issue.
    note: already configured session state in IIS , http  modules section. am using Page.Session["myvariable1"].tostring() to fetch the  session variables.
    help is appreciated!

    i have found out myself. i have put  page.response.write(mysessionvariables) in the code and deployed and tested in my env. and i was able to find out the reason and i have fixed it with proper validation check.

  • Session Variables Disappearing

    This issue of disappearing session variables keeps coming up
    again and again. I am reading about session variables work from
    Adobe site and it say this
    Click
    Here
    Session variables have the following
    traits:
    In order for session variables to
    work, the visitor's browser must be set to accept cookies.
    The pages for
    the site all must be located within a single directory on the web
    server.
    Information stored in session
    variables is site visitor specific. Different site visitors cannot
    access each other's session variable information.
    My question is this (about the highlighted). since my
    application.cfm is located in the root directory and the session
    variables are set from different directories under the root, will
    this be the problem? Users login into the site from the members
    directory and the sessions for that user are set after successful
    login. when the user tries any other link from a different
    directory the session disappears. Is this a recurring problem with
    CFMX (6.1)or am I the only one experiencing this. I wish someone
    from ADOBE should also respond to this.

    The session variables are good for the entire application.
    And the application is defined as any file at the same level or
    beneath the application.cfm. If you are trying to access files that
    do not fall under or at the same level as application.cfm then your
    session variables would be invalid.

  • Reading Session Variables in Abstract Portal Component/ JSP Dynpage or Java

    Hi All,
    I have a web dynpro for Java component which passes parameters in a session and also navigates to a Java application.
    Now when I try to read the session parameters in the Java application (JSPDynpage or Abstract Portal Component) I cannot retrieve the values.
    Can someone throw light on how I can achieve this within a Java application.
    Code is as enclosed below -
    WD for Java Code
      public void onActionClicked(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
        //@@begin onActionClicked(ServerEvent)
    IClientSession session = Utils.getCurrentClientSession();
    IScope scope = session.getScope();
    scope.put("TestSession", wdContext.currentContextElement().getTxtValue());
    WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute(
    "ROLES:portal_content/com.be.pct.cr.Test/DynProToNet",
    WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,
    (String)null,
    (String)null,
    WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_DUPLICATIONS,
    (String)null,
    (String)null,
    (String)null);
        //@@end
    Code within the Abstract Portal Component doContent method is -
    IPortalComponentSession ses;          
    ses = request.getComponentSession();
    String TestSession = new String();
    String sTest = new String();
    String sTesting = new String();
    if(ses.getValue("TestSession")!= null){
    TestSession = ses.getValue("TestSession").toString();
    if(request.getParameter("TestSession")!= null){
    sTest = request.getParameter("TestSession");
    if( request.getValue("TestSession")!= null)
    sTesting = request.getValue("TestSession").toString();
    response.write("Display"TestSessionsTest+sTesting);
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
      Why not use eventing between webdynpro and portal applications? That would be more easy. Check these documents.

  • Session variable causing ADODB.Field error '800a0bcd'

    i have a page that before the session variable was added,
    would display the
    text i required if the recordset was empty.
    Now i have a session variable on the same page and if the

  • Having an issue with passing the text of a link to a session variable.

    I am having an issue with passing the text from a link to a session variable. I am adding this html as a literal for each item in the list that i have populated with a query.
    List<Literal> lit = new List<Literal>();
    for (int i = 0; i < posts.Count; i+=4)
    Literal someLit = new Literal();
    someLit.Text=
    @"<div class='row'>" +
    "<div class='col-md-12'>" +
    "<div class='panel'>" +
    " <div class='panel-body'>" +
    " <!--/stories-->" +
    " <div class='row'> " +
    " <br>" +
    "<div class='col-md-2 col-sm-3 text-center' id='javascript'> <h3>" +
    " <a href='#' runat='server' onserverclick='UserProfile_Click'>" + posts[i + 3] + " </a>" +
    "</h3>" +
    " </div>" +
    " <div class='col-md-10 col-sm-9'>" +
    "<h3><a href='Thread.aspx' runat='server' onserverclick='MyFuncion_Click'> " + posts[i] + " </a></h3>" +
    " <div class='row'>" +
    " <div class='col-xs-9'> " +
    posts[i + 1] +
    " </div>" +
    "<div class='col-xs-3'></div>" +
    posts[i + 2] +
    " </div>" +
    "<br><br>" +
    " </div>" +
    " </div>" +
    " <!--/stories-->" +
    " </div>" +
    " </div>" +
    " </div><!--/col-12-->" +
    " </div>" +
    "</div>";
    lit.Add(someLit);
    for(int i=0; i<lit.Count; i++)
    this.Controls.Add(lit[i]);
    I use one of the list positions as the text for a link in two different spots. For now, lets only talk about the line:
    <a href='#' runat='server' onserverclick='UserProfile_Click'>" + posts[i + 3] + " </a>
    Since I am generating these controls at pageLoad, I can't make them <asp:Linkbutton>s. And since they are anchor elements, I don't have access to an onCommand attribute or onservercommand attribute.
    All I want to do is access the content from inside the specific link tags that I generate on link click and set it as a session variable. That's what I would like my UserProfile_Click function to do. I cant commandargs it in like i can with a linkbutton's
    OnCommnad attribute, however.
    My fear is that the onserverclick attribute resolves so something else on pageLoad normally and since I am generating it the way I am similar to the way a <asp:linkButton> resolves to a generated JavaScript.
    Any help?

  • Filtering a Recordset with session variable

    Hi
    I am trying to filter a recordset based on a session
    variable. The session variable is passed from the login page via a
    username which is their email address. This has been successful.
    However when I want to filter the users table - tbl_users to
    show their first name it doesn't work.
    I followed the adobe help tutorial plus ahave tried other
    combinations and I am now at a loss on where exactly I am going
    wrong.
    The recordset is rs_UserAccess
    I have a session variable called - MM_Username
    The table has 5 records of various users
    The code that I have fiddling with is -
    <%
    Dim rs_UserAccess
    Dim rs_UserAccess_numRows
    Set rs_UserAccess = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
    rs_UserAccess.ActiveConnection = MM_conn_sidecounter_STRING
    rs_UserAccess.Source = "SELECT * FROM tbl_users WHERE
    username = MM_Username"
    rs_UserAccess.CursorType = 0
    rs_UserAccess.CursorLocation = 2
    rs_UserAccess.LockType = 1
    rs_UserAccess.Open()
    rs_UserAccess_numRows = 0
    %>
    Any help would be appreciated. I have outlined below the
    different combinations I have tested.

  • Use of session variable to retrieve user language

    Hi,
    I'm converting some ASP code to JSP and I'm having a problem concerning session variables, in ASP I had something like this
    (first.asp)
    <td align="center" width=145px><%=getLabel(1)%>
    and in second.asp
    dim Label(3,2)
    function GetLabel(ndx)
    GetLabel = Label(ndx, Session("Language"))
    end function
    clang_PT = 1 ' Portuguese
    clang_EN = 2 ' English
    Label(0,clang_PT) = "primeira"
    Label(1,clang_PT) = "Segunda"
    Label(0,clang_PT) = "first"
    Label(1,clang_PT) = "second"
    when trying to do the same thing in JSP
    (first.jsp)
    <%@page contentType="text/html"%>
    <%@page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
    <%@include file="labels.jsp"%>
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
    <%if (session.isNew()) {
    session.setAttribute("Language","1");
    }%>
    <%= getLabel(1)%>
    (labels.jsp)
    <%@ page language="java" import="java.util.*"%>
    <%@page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
    <%! String getlabel(int ndx){
    return label[ndx][session.getAttribute("Language")];
    String[][] label = new String[2][2];
    %>
    <%
    int clang_PT = 0; // Portugu�s
    int clang_EN = 1; // Ingl�s
    label[0][clang_PT] = "primeira";
    label[1][clang_PT] = "segunda";
    label[0][clang_EN] = "first";
    label[1][clang_EN] = "second";
    %>
    I get
    cannot find symbol symbol : variable session location: class org.apache.jsp.experiencia_jsp return label[ndx][session.getAttribute("Language")];
    ^
    and
    cannot find symbol : method getLabel(int)
    location: class org.apache.jsp.experiencia_jsp
    out.print( getLabel(1));
    Should I use a bean to store this kind of info?
    thanks, V

    right...
    actually, cuz doing this:
    <%!
    String getlabel(int ndx){
    int lang = Integer.parseInt((String)session.getAttribute("Language"));
    return label[ndx][lang];
    %>
    there's no session object... that creates a method in the class separate from the main JSP method. So you need to either pass the session object in, or just pass the attribute value..
    <%!
    String getlabel(int ndx, int lang){
    return label[ndx][lang];
    %>
    int lang = Integer.parseInt((String)session.getAttribute("Language"));
    String lable = getLabel(ndx, lang);

  • Alternate method to writing filter for recordset using session variable

    I'm not sure if this can be done.  I have a user page which I'd like to return database info based upon a userid entered on another page. So far, the session variable (userid) is captured on the user page however it is supposed to return the user's name rather than displaying the session variable.
    My problem is this. Within dreamweaver, I am able to create recordsets however I cannot create a filter. The connection works. At this point, I am searching for a workaround where I can tie in the session variable to recordsets. I should make mention that whenever I update the sql statement using the recordset widget, my recordset disappears. ?  At any rate, heres a sample of the code sans connection strings, etc.
    <%
    Dim Recordset1
    Dim Recordset1_cmd
    Dim Recordset1_numRows
    Set Recordset1_cmd = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Command")
    Recordset1_cmd.ActiveConnection = MM_newuniversity1_STRING
    Recordset1_cmd.CommandText = "SELECT name FROM table WHERE userid =  '" & Session("userid_my") & "'"
    Recordset1_cmd.Prepared = true
    Set Recordset1 = Recordset1_cmd.Execute
    Recordset1_numRows = 0
    %>
    On the user page, I have a 'Welcome' and the following code
    {Request.userid_my}
    Any suggestions? I'm afraid I'm a newbie to asp within dreamweaver cs3.

    >When I insert  request.userid_my code it returns the session variable
    AFAIK, session variables are not part of the request object - so I do not understand why you are referencing them this way. I would use the standard reference method : Welcome <%Response.Write(Session("username"))%>
    >when I insert the recordset associated with 'name' I get an Adobe End of file error. ?
    Sounds like a possible problem with your installation. You may need to try reinstalling DW. How are you "inserting" this recordset and when does the error occur?
    Regarding your next post...
    >select name from table_name where userid = '" & namemy & "'"
    >The statement consistently returns a 'quoted string not properly terminated' error.....
    The select statement you quoted is obviously not complete. If you are refering to the select in your OP:
    Recordset1_cmd.CommandText = "SELECT name FROM table WHERE userid =  '" & Session("userid_my") & "'"
    I see nothing wrong with that syntax and the string appears to be terminated correctly. If there is a different statement causing the error, please post the entire line and include a line above and below.

  • Can i use session variable VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER) in write back report?

    Hi All,
    I have created a write back report and successfully inserted records into a table.
    Now i want to capture the user who has inserted in to the table.
    Till now i have given edit option to the users on USERNAME column.
    But now i want to capture the user automatically.
    when i user VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER), i can capture the Logged in user in USERNAME col and the moment i execute the report it is throwing an error.
    What i observed is....
    In the advanced tab USERNAME col is changed to VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER).
    is there any workaround for this?
    Thanks

    >>I have a session variable assigned to the ID#(auto
    number in access db) of messages posted.
    I not sure if I follow your in the description. I would
    assign the Record ID to the session variable.
    Place the Record id in the repeat region.
    Then you could assign that record id to a session variable
    when the button is click, capture the button click event. Then
    redirect to the EMPLOYEEMessageDELETE1.asp page, which will read in
    the session variable (record id) to be deleted.

  • Creating a session variable with PHP

    Can anyone offer me a PHP script that creates a session
    variable? The Dreamweaver CS3 Help documentation offers coding
    samples for ColdFusion and ASP but not for PHP. I tried this
    without success:
    "$_SESSION['usermail']= $_POST['sub_email'];" in which I am
    trying to capture an email address from a form and save it to use
    in a confirmation email to a new subscriber. Any help would be
    sincerely appreciated.
    [email protected]

    I use this -
    <?php
    if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
    session_start();
    ?>
    at the top of the page, and then this within the code block
    where you are
    processing the form's data -
    $_SESSION['usermail']= $_POST['sub_email'];

  • Setting & Retrieving Session Variables

    Hi,
    I’m new at session variables and having trouble

    I have a form with two dropdowns. I want to store the
    selections from both in session variables. Then pass those to
    another page where I want to display the selected values in my
    headline such as “You searched for [value1] and [value2]." I
    can’t get this to work right. I’ve gone through DW Help
    and tutorials and still can’t figure it out.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Session("varOne") = Request.Form("dropdown1")
    Session("varTwo") = Request.Form("dropdown2")
    %>
    To write the sessions to the page, put this:
    You searched for <%=varOne%> and <%=varTwo%>.
