I'm experimenting with using iBO for .net with Coldfusion 8 (which offers .net integration). I'm on iMIS 15.1.3.

I have a basic app skeleton set up that during initialization attempts to create the iBO object, like this:

function setupApplication()
{
....
application.iBO = createObject( '.NET', 'iboAdmin.InitializeSystem()', 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\bin\Asi.iBO.dll' );

I was recently immersed into a new project that already has iMIS (ASI) running using Public Views on a ColdFusion platform. The users of this project have expressed numerous challenges with using Public Views. I am looking to see if I can still use the ASI webservice methods, such as validateLogin, from within ColdFusion. Unfortunately, the previous programmer left no information in reagrds to this program and no one here can tell me where the ASI webservice exists.

I'm a little late getting to the party, but the best parties don't start until later anyway. I'm working on some basic ibo.NET integration work and am running into a couple of gotchas that have slowed me down. I made the mistake of starting the project using the 15.0.3 release of ibo.NET (just because I had it handy and got lazy) - now that I've bumped up to 15.1 I'm getting some new errors. I'm looking for some advice and direction from those that have already made it work. Couple of quick ground-rules (if I may):

We are looking into upgrading our web server to CF 9 and would like to know if there are any known compatibility issues with the e-Series software. Our current environment is as follows:

Release Version
 e-Series - 15.0.3.2397

iMIS Info
 iMIS Release Version - 15.0.3.2384
 System Name - iMIS Membership System

I know this is ancient, but a search produced no results.  Does anyone know a reason why eSeries 10.5.28.02 will not work with Coldfusion MX 8? 

Sorry for the cross post but am hoping to get as much info back on this as possible.

As with most things I know, this was pointed out to me by another smart person, Bilal Jeewa of ASI Consulting - Europe.

There is a standard feature of Content Manager 5.1 that accomodates display of dynamic content in template sections, by Navigation Section.

What does that mean? Well the issue I was trying to resolve was to have a different image appear in the body header based on the navigation section the page was in.

We currently have iMIS 15 installed on a 64 bit Windows 2003 server with ColdFusion MX7. We have a ColdFusion application installed on this server that is attempting to use the Hash process using the ASIUtil.dll to compare the iMIS password to a login on a custom member only site we have created. It prompts an error that it cannot hash the password. We did have this app on a windows 2003 32bit server until we upgraded to iMIS 15.

Frequently, customers have a previous website where they have logins and passwords they would like to preserve in a new iMIS based website.

The following is sample Coldfusion code on how to access the new i15 MembershipWebService and user the RegisterWebUser method to load logins and passwords into iMIS in bulk.

This can also be modifled to replace the Generate Logins functionality of e-SEries by pre assigning logins and passwords based on a formula.

Attached is a document with specifics on how to use the iMIS15 MembershipWebService to login a user from a third party site.

Please comment with any errors, omissions or additions you may have.

80% of the development of this process was done with the help of Eric Means.

Thanks,

Mike
