CFFILE:upload - accept - problem


Greetings,

My desire is to restrict downloads of files in .doc / .pdf / .xls documents.
Everything seems to work fine when I download .doc or .pdf documents.
However, when I try a download .xls, I get the error message displayed in
my code section < cfcatch > < / cfcatch > below. I understand what the error
message indicates, but do not understand why.

I tried the two application/msexcel - and - application/ms-excel and have
has received the same error. So maybe I have the wrong syntax for excel
component "".

Does anyone know the correct syntax to use for the excel component?

Is there something else I need to do about excel files?

Also does have a work around for the new microsoft extensions?

Example: docx, xlsx

Thank you for this insight.

Leonard

-My code below-

< cftry >

< cffile
action = "upload".
destination = "C:\path\to\the\folder".
FileField = "upload_doc."
nameconflict = "overwrite".
accept = "application/msword, application/pdf, application/ms-excel" >

< cfcatch type = "application" >

Type - lettering

Message - the MIME type of the file uploaded application / vnd.ms - excel is not accepted by the server.

Retail - only files of type application/msword, application/pdf, application/ms-excel can be downloaded.
Make sure that you download a file of the appropriate type.

< / cfcatch >

< / cftry >

The MIME type that is appropriate for the Excel files is indeed application / vnd.ms - excel. This is the value that you should use in the attribute accepts .

  • multiple cffile upload issues

    Hi all. I have a little problem with a multiple upload, I'm trying to achieve. I have been in charge of the search and search but could not find an answer and maybe you guys could help me. Well I do multiple downloads on a form I created and it downloads the file and the filename correctly, but it's the insertion 6 records every time I hit the button submit. Also, I noticed my database when you click submit, it's inserting the same file in a record 6 times, then it creates a new record and inserts the second file 6 times. I'll post the code here, maybe it's missing me something, not sure. Thanks for the help.

    of course it will be all 6 times since you have your entire code
    wrapped with cfloop 1 to 6... If the code execution will happen 6
    time... more your synatx for inclusion of names of files inside your query
    actually insert file even 6 times (since the code is inside a same
    CFLOOP)...

    You should separate your code and wrap the cffile part in a cfloop:



    destination = "D:\Hosting\streetzmag\dev\crush_images\".
    FileField = "" pic #i # ""
    nameconflict = "makeunique".
    result = "" uploadedpic_ #i # ""
    accept = "image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, image/gif" >



    INSERT information

    LastName,

  • CFFILE upload and the choice of variables of form b4 download

    Even with tons of research on google I can't understand this:

    I have a back-end (CF) management system that identifies the user and the company they accompany on login. These variables (and a few other identifyiers) are stored as session variables in the page of the app when connecting.

    Some users (according to the user level), set up a staff member company or a client through html forms regular of the CF with the action pages. This post to a SQL database.

    Part of what I'm trying to do is finally released an index of pdf forms that are downloaded or generated dynamically. This index contains categories and subcategories.

    So... Let's say, for example, when a company staff member is entered into the system, according to user's role the staff member must be given - I put in place of the folders and subfolders with cfdirectory (as well as other inserts to the database).

    Here my problem is:

    I need to have the user put in place a download by selecting through drop-down menus on a couple of form templates. The value of these drop-down lists the StaffID (for example) that the download is for and what category and subcatgory and other variables that are stored in the database - where the download is etc...

    I understand as a download of cffile only ' will make the upload part "customer and you will have to rename/move the file.

    What I can't understand is to know how to pass variables from the previous drop-down list forms to download form and be able to use variables for the database inserts because the cffile enctype publishes about himself. For me, this post of cgi is as a page refresh, so form variables that are passed to the upload form is lost when you actually download the file (announcement in itself).

    I am trying to integrate "double loading" I found the website of Nadel which seems to fix some security issues on downloads. (This "double upload' download the file in a temporary directory where it performs checks on the upload and deletes it if everything is wrong and goes no further in the treatment...) If all goes well this, the 'real' upload to a different directory).

    I can put up these directories two upload as 'session directories' on the application during the login page...

    But... I need to user (uploader) to put up the 'who' and 'where' fields until the file itself is uploaded. A main issue here is that if the download does not meet requirements until the download takes place - I have nothing to be inserted into the database. (The line of database created when the file is downloaded the StaffID stores, file name, category, subcategory, etc. and the index to retrieve this support will be subsequently pulled the database will indicate where reside the uploads).

    Is this enough information to understand what I'm doing? I know that I can rename and move a file once downloaded, but the upload info must be configured so that the download takes place, and not to take place (no insertion of data), if the download does not meet the criteria, etc..

    Thanks for everyone's entered on this.

    PS: I'm using CF9 or not anything like Flex, Ajax, JSON, or... just JQuery directly CF

    Thank you, Alexander!

    Who did for me - was exactly what I was looking for.

    The isDefined reviews and the definition of session variable form opens my eyes to other possibilities as well.

    Thanks to you and Dan. It's absolutely great when those more knowledgeable help those of us who struggle with the code.

  • After choosing to accept problems Adobe CC 2014 'Software License Agreement' infinite Popping Up

    In my case, it happened in my machine Windows 8.1 update 1

    Here's how I solved it:


    + Go to:

    \AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE[YOU-TWEAK-NAME]C:\Users\

    + Remove the file:

    _LicenseAgreement.XML

    Starting your Adobe application that has pop up problem before, "Software License Agreement" will burst once again, but after clicking on "Accept", it will stop to reappear

    Hope it will work for you guys, at least it worked for me.

    Note:

    * The _LicenseAgreement.xml file will be automatically recreated after the first 'Software License Agreement' arise and accepted.

    * Unfortunately, you will need to accept this agreement pop for all the app installed Adobe.

    I met the same problem in Adobe Dreamweaver CM³.

    It's the solution I used:

    GoTo

    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE

    Search _LicenseAgreement.xml

    rather than delete the file, open it with notepad ++ and add the LEID Application and the version of your adobe product.

  • CFFILE uploadall accept question!

    If I have a cffileupload that points to a page with this code:

    < cffile action = "uploadAll" destination = "-#DocPath # ' nameConflict ="MakeUnique"result ="myDoc"accept =" application/msword">

    Then, I find myself with an empty array.  If I remove the tag accept then I download the file very well.  I am downloading a file valid msword.doc.  I even tried vnd.openxmlformats - officedocument.wordprocessingml.document for 2007 docx files.  Nothing seems to work and it gives no error, it just don't do.

    Any ideas on how to check the type MIME of what to download?

    WARNING: I have not used the CFFILE uploadAll version.

    Using the attribute accept to specify the allowed MIME types requires the web browser to provide his form post values of MIME type.  I've seen this failure on the two web browser and when using a Flex application.  I do not use the accept attribute and write your own validation of the file extension.

  • DW &amp; gt; cPanel upload - beginner problem

    (My apologies if this message 2 x)

    Hello everyone I am at the end of my rope, trying to figure out where a basic problem. I usually work in the press, but I have a very simple site that I need to set up a point of contact for copyright issues. The local site works perfectly in the browser preview of DW MX 2004 and has a file LowdownInk2008 containing:

    index.html
    folder of images with 3 images
    popups with 2 windows pop up folder

    OK everything is good so I downloaded it in CPanel using 'file manager' so now the Public_html folder contains:
    index.html
    Root folder named LowdownInk2008 that contains 1 file images (with 3 images) and 1 case of pop-ups (with 2 pop ups) called root LowdownInk2008 folder is set up exactly as it is on my Local site. Letter case etc. are accurate.

    Only problem is when I go to www.lowdownink.com none of the pictures appear and popups don't work. Frustrating is that I just deleted my previous web a page that worked. Here's images etc. presented themselves.

    Can you see what I did wrong? There has got to be something basic. I was just at State records in the same way? Obviously the index file is separate, but it's the only DIF. Is this something I need to do in DW before I download?

    So far I spent hours trying to understand that nothing is done. If anyone can help I would be very grateful.

    Sincerely, Lauren

    Thank you for that. Yes, I know what you're saying, but normally, I work in Illustrator and need something quick without spending mega money. I could take your advice but and send it to someone just make the code and keep the track.

  • CFFILE with IE page not found problems

    I am having some weird with cffile problems when I have a client to delete a file. I never met this problem with the use of Firefox and I ran into that with IE 5 on up.

  • Problems with the images displayed in the document... but not errors

    Hello
    I created a download page for CFFile simple within the administration of a content management system, that I built. I am able to download image files in a directory image designated without error.

    < cffile action = "upload" accept = ' image/jpg, image/jpeg, image/gif, image/png' nameconflict = "makeunique" filefield = destination 'imagefile' = "" / > "

    In a separate area of the CMS I use to display and select the images in the directory < directory cf >.

    < cfdirectory action = "list" directory = "" name = "rsImages" type = "name" filter = "*.jpg" / > "

    Everything seems great and I get no errors. The images are actually transferred to the web server, but they do not appear in the document. No errors, if. I'm completely stumped. I have tried several things without success. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Download cffile - how do you pass form.file with a function?

    I'm having a real headache trying to implement a function that will take a file of form and then download (or really copy it into a destination directory) using cffile.

    Here is my code:

    < cffunction name = "Upload" access = "remote" output = "false" returntype = "any" >

    < name cfargument = "file" required = "true" >

    "< cffile action ="upload"fileField ="arguments.file"destination =" #ExpandPath('.') # "nameConflict ="makeunique">

    < cfreturn cffile >
    < / cffunction >

    < cfif NOT isDefined ("form.submitted") >

    < do action = "index.cfm" method = "post" enctype = "multipart/form-data" > "

    < input type = "hidden" name = "subject" id = "subject" / >
    < input type = 'file' name = 'file' id = "file" / >
    < input type = "submit" name = "submit" value = "Submit" / >

    < / make >

    < cfelse >

    < isDefined ("form.file") cfif >

    < cfdump var = "# form #" >

    < cfscript >
    answer = Upload (Form.file);
    < / cfscript >

    < cfdump var = "#response #" >

    < cfoutput > success < / cfoutput >

    < cfelse >

    < cfoutput > no file < / cfoutput >

    < / cfif >

    < / cfif >

    I get the error message is:

    The arguments.file of form field contains no file.

    What I don't understand, why the fact work when I move the form.file to the cffile upload fileField and not when I simply go through a function? Is there some sort of hidden here security or something?

    I tried all kinds of variations with this without success. If someone could tell me where I'm wrong I would be very happy!

    Thank you

    Ah, I just noticed that you're passing IN this function.  CFFILE takes the NAME of the field in the form that the file is located, not the

    the contents of the form field.  If you should be qualifying:

    Upload (file = "file");

    It would be wise if you read the docs:

    CFFILE action = "upload".

  • Download multiple Images

    Hello
    The answer to this question is probably sitting right in front of me, but I can't understand this. It is a page of loading image that downloads multiple images to my SQL db. (I'm using CF 7.0) I have a form called "pick.cfm" that the user enters the number of images to download. This page also sets the #cookie.micro # in the code referenced below. #cookie.micro # is the number of images to download.

    The problem is, if I upload two images, for example, named "abc.jpg" and "def.jpg" the file names are inserted into the database as "abc.jpg" (correct) and 'abc1.jpg (not good).

    It is of the form:

    < action = "testingform_action.cfm cfform" enctype = "multipart/form-data" method = "post" > "


    < cfset numberoffields = #cookie.micro # >



    < cfloop index "i" = to = "#variables.numberoffields # '1' = ' step '1' = >"
    < cfset filename2 = "form.file" >
    < cfinput type = "File" name = "micro" value = "#variables.filename2 #" / > < br / >


    < / cfloop >


    < cfinput type = "Submit" name = "upload" value = "upload" >

    < / cfform >



    It's the action page:


    < cfloop index "i" = to = "#cookie.micro # '1' = ' step '1' = >"

    < cffile destination = "d:\Inetpub\wwwroot\pulse\pathology\pia\images\".
    action = "upload".
    accept = "" image / * ""
    nameconflict = "makeunique".

    < cfquery datasource = "pathimage" name = "insertimage" >
    Insert into images (filename) VALUES ('#file.) ServerFile #')
    < / cfquery >



    < / cfloop >


    What is the cause? I'm sure that it's simple, but I can't understand. ANY advice you could give would be so appreciated!

    Alison

    I guess that its because all file fields all have the same name. Try to name them dynamically: micro1, micro2, Inc.3, etc..

    A few minor comments on the code

    -As far as I know, if the VALUE has no effect to the input fields when type = "file".
    -FILE is obsolete. Use CFFILE. ServerFile instead
    -You don't need signs # here

  • CFFILEUPLOAD - files are downloaded, but progress bar indicates the error.

    I'm trying to to cffileupload all rise on CF10. When I download a file, I can confirm the file going to where I specified, but the individual progress bar shows red and says "Error" (without code). The overall progress bar is green, but if there is more than one file, then it will not continue on the 2nd.

  • restriction of cffileupload mime type?

    Hello

    I'm trying to implement the cffileupload widget and restrict to only be able to download image files

    you don't need an extension filter that can be defined on *.jpg, *.png etc... but the user can still select other types of files using the *. * command in the context menu of Explorer

    so I thought about restricting on the real cffile 'upload' tag in the backend, but all the files have the mime type "application/octet-stream" and not image/jpg...

    no idea how really limiting this tag?

    Maybe it is related to this issue

    You should check the cffile. Variable ServerFileExt that contains the extension of file for you ensure that it matches your set of allowed extensions. Make sure you download in a folder outside the root Web (for example getTempDirectory()) first to avoid potential security problems.

    You can also use IsImageFile() in addition to the test of file extension, but don't count on isImageFile (always check file extensions).

    If you have CF10 you can use as well.

    In short - don't count on the mime type for what, whether it can be spoofed by an attacker to upload malicious files, always check the file extension (merit to be repeated).
