cfftp 500 Illegal PORT range rejected

Try setting the passive attribute to "yes" where your cfftp action is equal to putFile.

<cfftp action="open" server="ftp.server.com" username="username" password="password" passive="yes" connection="connectionName" >

<cfftp action="putFile" localfile="/var/www/html/#filename#" remotefile="#filename#" passive="yes" transfermode="ascii" timeout="30" connection="connectionName">

ColdFusion CFC WSDL libstdc++

I chased a problem all morning with missing libraries in Debian running ColdFusion MX. While trying to run a cfc as a web service I kept getting this error:

"coldfusion.jsp.CompilationFailedException: Errors reported by Java compiler: /opt/coldfusionmx7/runtime/bin/jikesw: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ."

I installed the latest version of libstdc++ and installed libc6-dev but it still didn't work until I tried Keebler's workaround. Props to him.

The end solution was to link the newer library to the old...

"ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2"

CFMX 7 running on Debian 4.0

Your answering service is losing you money.

Your answering service is losing you money. But how would you know?

I've been working for a call tracking company for a while now and I'm amazed at how poor call centers and answering services are. I believe most people assume that since it's the primary job of the answer center to answer the phone that no call would go unanswered. This isn't the case.

I was under the impression that call centers and answering services were buildings full of cubes and people that did nothing but answer calls. Again, not the case.

I've seen a shocking amount of calls go unanswered. Callers that were placed on hold and forgotten. Rude or unacceptable customer service.

Don't assume because you are paying someone to answer your phone that they are doing a good job. Start recording and tracking your incoming calls so you know for sure.

Dihydrogen monoxide

Dihydrogen monoxide:

  • is called "hydroxyl acid", the substance is the major component of acid rain.
  • contributes to the "greenhouse effect".
  • may cause severe burns.
  • contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape.
  • accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals.
  • may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes.
  • has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients.
Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:
  • as an industrial solvent and coolant.
  • in nuclear power plants.
  • in the production of styrofoam.
  • as a fire retardant.
  • in many forms of cruel animal research.
  • in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical.
  • as an additive in certain "junk-foods" and other food products.

COX now provides all HD channels to CableCARD customers.

I received a letter yesterday stating that starting May 1st COX Communications was going to stop screwing their CableCARD customers (i.e. me since I use a TiVo) out of a handful of HD channels. Turns out they weren't lying. Way to do the right thing COX.

Vote on the new Kansas license plate.

I wish I could see the 106 entries that didn't make the cut. Can we vote for a recount?
