Passionate First Grader

Community No Comments »

My daughter has become very passionate about the charity Pennies for Peace.  So much so she has made signs and asks for pennies daily.  The latest was making me a sign for my "office".  But I don't have one, so I surprised her and posted a page here for her.  Please check it out and if you giving make a small donation (we are talking pennies).  OK, back to working.  Thanks for looking.

cfdocument, cfpdf, DDX and Coldfusion Report Builder, a lesson in hodge podge

Since the days of MX7 I have always had issues with CF's ability to properly build a dynamic PDF. FlashPaper always seemed to work better (made sense when Macromedia was in charge) but I thought for sure that PDF would "just work" when Adobe took over.

OK, we now have a web server running and a database running.  Wouldn't it be great if we could output the data on the web?  That's what I thought, so let's get Railo installed and start publishing some CFML.  This section of the series is when we get to compile our own connector between Apache and Resin.  It is also the piece that was difficult to track down what went wrong.  The actual compiling and installing isn't difficult, it is more the knowledge of the arguments needed to make it work on this set up.

Parallels and Shared Networking

Parallels , Mac , Windows , Network No Comments »

I have been working out of my new office in Scottsdale and last week when the cable guy came out to install the modem we found out that there was no feed in the building and would be at least one month before it could be installed.  So, we have all been running off of our At&T or Verizon cards.  Everything was wonderful until I needed to get into MSSQL through Parallels and Windows was telling me that I had "limited to no connectivity".
