I am not sure what you're asking here. Are you asking how to perform some validation on the client side (javascript), how to save the information to a database, or something else?

Well ...look at your code. That is exactly what you're telling CF to do ... always redirect to login failed.

Did you actually test this code? Because it doesn't look right ...

That is not a good idea. If the form field contains comma's the script will error out. Better to keep the fields separate by dynamically naming them txtValue1, txtValue2, etc...

The physical path for those files is typically c:\coldfusion8\wwwroot\cfide\administrator. But since I cannot see what files actually are there ... yes, an uninstall followed by a reinstall of CF8...

I only glanced at the article, but I think it is talking about something different. But, since you say you get a list of files when you go to:

That is default location, but make sure they are no typos in your url.

1. Without seeing the code, it suggest the links are using absolute urls, rather than relative urls. The links have to be updated to point to your site, rather than the external one.

Take a look at the documentation for cfquery and cfoutput. The examples are very easy to understand:

Care to share? ;-)

Yes, that would be fine for a single file. But probably not an option if they need to work with many/dynamic files.

Well .. jExcel, POI, etc... are the better options (IMO). BUT they are definitely more complicated. Of course if you are not allowed to use createObject, you'll have to forget about those...

Look at how datasources are created here. That is exactly what your host did to create your datasource.

You would have to test it out, but it seems like you need to track 3 things:

1) the number of consecutive bad logins
2) the date and time of the last bad login
3) a boolean flag indicating...

It sounds like you are just using the wrong datasource name. Ask your host.
1) Did they create a datasource for you. If not, ask them to create one
2) If they have created one already, what is...

There are hacks, but it is a bit of a pain.

So what happened when you tried the suggestions on the other thread?

For anyone else reading this thread, there may some good suggestions in one of the OP's other threads:

As mentioned on your other threads, you need to provide more information ;-) Like a code and image sample, an error message, etc..

I have not done it in a while, but the other server has to be accessible to the account CF is running under. For example, if the other server is set up as a mapped drive, the ColdFusion user account...

That depends on whether the number of "values" is fixed or not. Maybe this is too simple, but the way I see it, the "value" position is linked to the group order.

Group1

My first thought was to modify the query to return the needed results. Then it would be easy to construct the xml using cfoutput's "group". But I do not know how simple it would be to modify your...

What do you mean not in the table? In other words, if they are not in your table what determines that one value should be in first "value" position, versus the second, third or fourth?

So did you figure it out?

The basics of what you need to do are not difficult The only tricky part is extracting the data from excel. But let's take a single file as an example. (I will assume you are using at least MX7)

There are some variables here like do you mean an real .xls file or something compatible like a .csv (comma separated) or .txt (tab delimited) file?

Unfortunately, I am out of ideas because I am not using Access 2007. Just a thought, but does Access have an option to convert a database to an earlier version? If so, you might try that. ...

Well, like I said at am not familiar with storing CC's. So I am really not the one to be giving you advice on how to properly secure them. What I will say is that assumedly, Adobe engineers are...

It is not just encryption. Some credit card companies require merchants to meet certain requirements and also pass a certification process if they intend to store credit card info.
...

Now I know you are joking around .. because that still uses Encrypt - with the default CFMX_COMPAT. Hardly good enough security for credit card information.

Adobe's own documentation states that Encrypt uses the CFMX_COMPAT method by default and "This algorithm is the least secure option (default). " Not very secure in comparison to other, better,...

You need to use the correct syntax. "cfsqltype="(Varchar)"> is not a valid cfsqltype. If you use an invalid type ColdFusion defaults to the type for "char" which may cause unexpected results. All...

So you tried both:
1. downloading the fix and creating an ODBC datasource AND

Access 2007 is not supported

Encryption was not the problem. It was the lack of cfqueryparam, as I already mentioned.

Though, I agree with Salem about security. If you are storing credit card information security and...

Try using cfqueryparam on all of the insert values. It works for me with MySQL.

Are you using cfqueryparam when you insert the value into the database table?

Is that a double quote or two single quotes? What syntax are you using to insert the encrypted string into the database?

Good. I am glad you were able to solve the problem.

It is rare that there is not a better error message. The only thing that comes close, in my experience is a plain "500" error. But again, that is unusual.
