Re: [Mach-II] How to put hook up listener not on webroot in a shared hosting

The "/../appName" bit seems odd to me. That says "go to the web root, then
go one level up, then into an 'appName' directory." Chances are your host
doesn't let you go outside your webroot.

If / doesn't get you to your webroot and they don't allow for mappings,
unfortunately you may have to do a search and replace on the framework code.

Just echoing what Peter said for reinforcement--set session affinity
("sticky sessions") on the load balancer and that's all you need to do.

Okay, so its exactly what i thought it was.

I just need to configure the Load Balancer to force the user to remain
on the same server for the duration of the visit to the site.

Thanks for your help.

Yes, this would have to do with your server setup. Your load balancer is
not keeping your session on the same server.

As stated in the docs, redirect persist uses the application or session
scope to store a temporary copy of the data. The key in the URL is used
to retrieve it. If your load balancer is not acting correctly,

Hi there

i have spent several hours trying to figure this out, but i think it
may be down to our server setup.

We have a load balancer with 2 server, both running CF9 Standard. I
have been reading posts about setting sticky session within the
Cluster Manager on the CFAdmin. However, being on standard we cannot

Hi All I have 2 questions,

I'm currently trying to setup a machii application that's on a share
hosting who provides the following folder structure:
-/ (most bottom folder)
-web (webroot)

and I want to keep what's only necessary in the webroot so I am
planning to do this:
-/ (most bottom folder)

Thanks Peter. I added the setter and it works fine (despite what
documentation says).

public function setUserID(any id) {
if(len(id)){
variables.userID = id;
variables.userID = javacast("null","");
}

Some other discourse on this is how to a value on a bean back to NULL --

FYI, You could set a null by using the return void exploit from a
cffunction. Adobe CF is the only engine that works like this -- Railo
and Open BD work differently.

It's interesting they phrased it that way--I'd say the results are entirely
expected. Not what *should* happen in my opinion, but the results are
consistent and therefore aren't unexpected.

Thank you for helping us think through this issue. Chances are we'll come up
with a solution for 1.9, and we'll definitely want everyone's feedback as we

PK won't always be id, but I agree, exception to the normal rule is fine.

Well, no null in Adobe CF :o) From javacast documentation:

Note: Do not assign the results of JavaCast("null","") to a ColdFusion
variable. Unexpected results will occur.

Thanks a lot you guys for being so responsive. Makes the learning curve much

Well, over time your beans will be more than table definitions -- or
you'll have a pretty anemic domain model. I wouldn't worry about having
to define an occasional setter/getter/other method. No bean is going to

Yes, overriding the setter in the bean is an option. I was trying to not add
any method in the bean itself and keep only table definition, but I think
the setter for ID is needed. It will allow me to remove the check from the
constructor in base entity.

From what I have tested so far, I don't think we can reset the ID in save

Re: [Mach-II] Re: Event-Beans and the Form tag

pe...@mach-ii.com (Peter J. Farrell) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 19:48:39 UT

I think the easiest workaround is to just define a concrete setter in
your bean to override the generated setter. You would just not set a
value if the incoming argument is equal "" (basically ignoring the
setter call).
