In my CF component, I tried to filter data from user input (getSearchString) and run the code, I having problem with WHERE function. Can suggestion what is the correct way?
<cffunction name="getParks" access="remote" returntype="struct">
<cfargument name="page" required="true" />
<cfargument name="pageSize" required="true" />
<cfargument name="gridsortcolumn" required="true" />
<cfargument name="gridsortdirection" required="true" />
<cfargument name="getSearchString" default="" />
<cfif arguments.gridsortcolumn eq "">
<cfset arguments.gridsortcolumn = "parkName" />
<cfset arguments.gridsortdirection = "asc" />
</cfif>
<cfquery name="parks" datasource="cfdocexamples">
select parkName, parkType, city, state
from parks
where <cfqueryPARAM value = "#getSearchString#" CFSQLType = "CF_SQL_VARCHAR">
order by #arguments.gridsortcolumn# #arguments.gridsortdirection#
</cfquery>
<cfreturn queryconvertforgrid(parks, page, pagesize) />
It seems to be a simple sql bug. The field which you would like to compare with your searchstring is missing.
Should rather be:
<cfquery name="parks" datasource="cfdocexamples">
select parkName, parkType, city, state
from parks
where parkName = <cfqueryPARAM value = "#getSearchString#" CFSQLType = "CF_SQL_VARCHAR">
order by #arguments.gridsortcolumn# #arguments.gridsortdirection#
</cfquery>
acctually not around param but around getSearchString:
WHERE parkName LIKE ... "%#getSearchString#%" ... But beware of performance issue with LIKE, also if you have large number of entries, dataGrid doesn't do real paging. Full blown solution depends on your database type.

https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/40613/datatable-jquery-server-side-with-adobe-cold-fusion-and-sql-server

On first page load, all data sucessfully loaded into #formsTable
But it wont work when clicking sorting,searching and paging.
It just hang with 'processing..'

I am stuck here , it seems that something is missing on pageB.cfm ?
Edited:
thanks for #user12031119 pointing out that sent parameter from pageA.cfm to pageB.cfm is different now with v1.10, so basically these parameters should be change :-
sEcho : draw
iDisplayStart : start
iDisplayLength : length
iTotalRecords : recordsTotal
iTotalDisplayRecords : recordsFiltered
with that change i can now click on next/prev page (paging) but still search and sorting dont work
Yes, unfortunately the code sample you're viewing on datatables.net is for legacy datatables. Under datatables 1.10.x, you will have to use the upgraded keys which version 1.10 expects in your returned json structure. It looks like you already updated pageA.cfm with the new parameters, however you also need to update your server-side return parameters in pageB.cfm.
Here's a guide to upgrade to version 1.10 https://datatables.net/upgrade/1.10
Here's a guide for the new parameters for server-side 1.10 https://datatables.net/manual/server-side
Edit 1 thanks to James A Mohler
Edit 2 per issue noticed by myself
Apparently I was mistaken that datatables only accepts an array of arrays when returned from the server. Apparently it also accepts an array of structs, which helps simplify my answer. However, this will require aliasing the columns in the select statement to match the column definitions defined in pageA.cfm. With that said, here are the changes needed.
The first code modification to pageB.cfm will be to alias the columns in your select statemen to match their definition in pageA.cfm.
<cfquery datasource="hrms" name="qFiltered">
select id as id, emp_no as empno, emp_name as name, number_id2 as ic from employee
Once that's done, change the following in your <cfoutput> block from pageB.cfm
Change sEcho to draw
Change iTotalRecords to recordsTotal
Change iTotalDisplayRecords to recordsFiltered
Change aaData to data
Use serializeJson() with the "struct" option to return an array of structs with the key values matching up to how you defined them in pageA.cfm. If you're using ACF instead of lucee, then you might have to change your column definitions in pageA.cfm to uppercase since ACF doesn't preserve case and uppercases key names.
<!--- Output --->
<cfoutput>
{
"draw": #val(url.sEcho)#,
"recordsTotal": #qCount.total#,
"recordsFiltered": #qFiltered.recordCount#,
"data": #serializeJson(qFiltered, "struct")#
}
</cfoutput>
First, check that your JSON output is valid (jsonlint.com)
Then, wrap your JSON output into a cfsavecontent:
<cfsavecontent variable="json">
<cfoutput>
your output here
</cfoutput>
</cfsavecontent>
Then use this code to return the JSON:
<cfset lastModDate = DateFormat(Now(),'ddd, dd mmm YYYY') & ' ' & TimeFormat(DateConvert('local2Utc', Now()), 'HH:mm:ss') & ' GMT'>
<cfheader name="Expires" value="#DateAdd('m', -1, Now())#">
<cfheader name="Last-Modified" value="#lastModDate#">
<cfheader name="cache-control" value="must-revalidate">
<cfheader name="Pragma" value="no-cache">
<cfcontent type="text/x-json" />
<cfoutput>#json#</cfoutput>
OK finally it works now.

I am trying to learn about OOP in ColdFusion by recreating a proven Bean-DAO-Manager setup. In the example, I only use Create but the issue also exists for Read, Update and Delete.
I think I make some mistakes when passing the arguments.
From index.cfc, I create an object from testBeanDaoManager.cfc, which holds the API. Here, the bean is created that should hold the properties. From there the manager is called which calls the db-query in the file testDAO.cfc.
The error states that the bean's method getName() was not found (more details at the end of the post).
Any help is greatly appreciated.

(too long for a comment)
You are calling
var bean = gettestBean(arguments.ID);
which points to gettestBean of /api/testBeanDaoManager.cfc. This one does
var nameManager = createObject('component', 'logic.manager.testManager');
var nameBean = nameManager.getName(arguments.ID);
return nameBean;
but logic.manager.testManager doesn't have any getName function. Even if it had one, you would have to return an instance (the bean), which is kinda misleading for a method called getName.
Edit - There are some customer accounts that are reporting a $0 balance due on their online accounts but there is an actual balance due. It is with these accounts only that the PDFs will not open. Data import issue at this point?
I have a set of CF functions in which new PDFs are generated from database records and available on user accounts for download or viewing. The code has worked great up until a couple weeks ago, but now the new or old (previous monthly bills) PDFs will not open (corrupt) on the user account pages. The record data has not been changed or modified. Could this be CF update issue or what could have caused files to now generate corrupt? Any help is appreciated.
PDF Analysis of the corrupt PDF files gives:

I have one cfc file (info.cfc) with multiple functions as shown below.
<cfcomponent output="true" extends="DateFunctions">

<cffunction name="viewDate" access="remote" returntype="any" output="true" returnformat="plain">
<cfquery name="records">
SELECT
dbo.tickets.Incident,
dbo.tickets.Start_Date,
dbo.tickets.Days_Due
FROM
dbo.tickets
</cfquery>
</cffunction>
</component>
And the other cfc file (DateFunctions.cfc) containing the a function with two arguments and returning a date.
The DateFunctions.cfc file is as follows:
<cfcomponent output="true" name="DateFunctions"">
<cffunction name="addBusinessDays" access="remote" returntype="any" output="true" returnformat="plain">
<cfargument name="daysToAdd"
required="yes"
type="numeric"
hint="The number of whole business days to add or subtract from the given date">
<cfargument name="date"
required="No"
type="date"
hint="The date object to start counting from.."
default="#NowDateTime#">
...
... <!--- Perform some tasks --->
<cfreturn Date>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
Question: How can I invoke "addBusinessDays" from within the query in (info.cfc) also producing another column of results.
I thought I might have been able to do something like:
<cffunction name="viewDate" access="remote" returntype="any" output="true" returnformat="plain">
<cfquery name="records">
SELECT
dbo.tickets.Incident,
dbo.tickets.Start_Date,
dbo.tickets.Days_Due,
(
<cfinvoke component="DateFunctions" method="addBusinessDays" returnVariable="Date">
<cfinvokeargument name="daysToAdd" value="#dbo.tickets.Days_Due#">
<cfinvokeargument name="date" value="#dbo.tickets.Start_Date#">
</cfinvoke>
) AS Due_DATE
FROM
dbo.tickets
</cfquery>
</cffunction>
You could do the following with the caveat of there would be additional processing for the loop.
Edit: Per discussion below, updated cfoutput to cfloop
<cffunction name="viewDate" access="remote" returntype="any" output="true" returnformat="plain">
<cfquery name="records">
SELECT
dbo.tickets.Incident,
dbo.tickets.Start_Date,
dbo.tickets.Days_Due,
'' as Due_DATE
FROM
dbo.tickets
</cfquery>
<cfset df = createobject("component","DateFunctions")>
<cfloop query="records">
<cfset records.Due_DATE = df.addBusinessDays(Days_Due, Start_Date)>
</cfloop>
<cfreturn records>
</cffunction>
Rather than creating the df object, it should be tied to the this scope. That way the object is created only once. This should make the viewDate function run faster as there is no overhead in creating df.
Also, new is just a cleaner syntax
<cfcomponent>
<cfset this.df = new DateFunctions()>
<cffunction name="viewDate" access="remote" returntype="any" output="false" returnformat="plain">
<cfquery name="Local.records">
SELECT
dbo.tickets.Incident,
dbo.tickets.Start_Date,
dbo.tickets.Days_Due,

FROM
dbo.tickets
</cfquery>
<cfloop query="Local.records">
<cfset Local.records.Due_DATE = this.df.addBusinessDays( Local.records.Days_Due, Local.records.Start_Date)>
</cfloop>
<cfreturn Local.records>
</cffunction>

This generates the 1st pull down list

The first list would have an option list Hotel Training and the second query should show both Maids and Cooks. Right now it only shows Maids. I tried to create a list or another array but have not be able to get it to display the results. Below is my Coldfusion call for the display. It is fine to display with commas between the results like Maids,Cooks
<tr id="union">
<td></td>
<td>Union Attached:
<cfinput name="uni_name"
bind="cfc:servicetype.getUnion({service_type})"
bindonload="false"
/></td></tr>
Any advice would be greatly appreicated.
