I am looking to use the UrlRewriteFilter based on a recommendation. It was working fine, until I tried to pass the parameters from the "From" to the "to". I ended up getting "&" as the character between the URL and the parameters instead of the "?". In researching this, it has been fixed since 2015, but the release 4.0.5 has never been made public in the maven repository. 4.0.4 is the latest and it is from 2012. It looks like a great project, but does not appear to be maintained anymore. Does anyone have an alternate project that they can recommend that is comparable?
If you are using Tomcat 8.0 or later, you can use RewriteValve to rewrite URLs.

I'm trying to learn my way around Postman and I see in Tests, for example pm.globals.set("id","12345") is used instead of postman.setGlobalVariable("id","12345") which is what I have working on mine. The former does not. I want to be able to use pm.globals.set
The new pm.* API was introduced in version 5.2.0 - https://www.getpostman.com/apps#changelog
Looking at the release notes for that version, the native OS clients have been updated but the Chrome App doesn't show this change. I believe the development for the Chrome App has now stopped.
The older syntax will still continue to work in the new versions but it will be dropped eventually in favour of the new pm.* functions.
The postman has replaced Postman.* to pm.* which has more cleaner and robust scripting. It includes a lot of global functions. This link explains the same : https://learning.getpostman.com/docs/postman/scripts/postman_sandbox_api_reference/
This should help you understand the additional features in it.
I'm admittedly new to Netsuite, so this may be obvious, although I've been unable to find anything specific one way or the other. In fact, I don't even attend any training until next week, but I'm trying to get part of my development environment setup with one of the editors/IDEs I prefer. I know that Netsuite offers an Eclipse plugin, but I'm not an Eclipse fan. I'd prefer to use either WebStorm or TextMate. (I'm on MacOS Sierra)
I tried installing the WebStorm plugin, but it's throwing an exception and is not functional. I submitted a bug on GitHub, but what I'd really like to know is if it's possible for me to write my own script to upload/download files to the cabinet, so I could just roll my own feature in TextMate. Is this possible, and if so, how? (Just a link to the docs is perfectly fine)
In other words, is it possible via their API, to submit changes to a script I've been working on in another editor/IDE? Or interact with our cabinet? (Not sure if I'm using the proper NS verbiage, but hopefully you get my intent) I'm thinking about writing a Python script, that accepts a local script path as a parameter, that will then get submitted to our cabinet. Thanks for the help in advance.
I wrote a plugin for JetBrains IDEs (I use WebStorm specifically though) that mimics NetSuite's Eclipse plugin. Feel free to take a look. It is open source and has ~1500 downloads at the current moment.

If you are the same person that opened this issue (https://github.com/Topher84/NetSuite-Tools-For-WebStorm/issues/7), it has been closed and was due to using an older version of WebStorm.
I don't like eclipse personally, so I just make my scripts in whatever and use Netsuite's script backend to upload the scripts as 'new' when I'm done. If I want to change them, simply use their backend again to 'edit' the script. You'll see a simple editor, where you can change things, or you just copy and paste what you have in there. It's a little more work than something integrated, but it does work..
There are two main schools of thought for doing A/B (Split) Testing:
Javascript-based solutions such as Optimizely, Google Analytics Content Experiments.
Server-side solutions such as Django-AB, Splango, and django-lean. (Also, writing your own.)
My understanding is that Javascript-based solutions are spectacular for "which color button converts better," but not so great for switching out entire page layouts, and completely unworkable for trying out large functional changes such as the sequence of pages in a funnel.
That leads me towards a server-side solution. I'm not crazy about coding my own, and will do so only if there is no other option. I'm trying to add value by improving the core functionality of my site, not by creating a better split-testing framework.
The Django apps I've found for split testing are various mixtures of unmaintained, undocumented, documented incorrectly, and incompatible with Django 1.5. This surprises me, because the Django and Python communities seem to have a strong focus on good documentation. I'm also very surprised that none of the testing frameworks I've tried has been compatible with Django 1.5 -- is testing not as core a part of the philosophy in the Django/Python world as it is in Rails?
Here's what I've found:
Splango https://github.com/shimon/Splango -- Not compatible with Django 1.5 (although most compatibility bugs I found were trivial to fix). Largely un-touched since October 2010, except for a fix August 2012 which claims to make sure templates get included in the install. Since templates don't get included in the install when Splango is installed via PyPI, either the fix didn't work or didn't get submitted to PyPI. Documentation is largely accurate, but doesn't completely cover how to set up tests and get reports. It tells you how to configure the template to gather the data, but there appears to be additional steps required in the admin interface which are completely undocumented, and I'm not sure I've done them properly.
Django-lean. Original at https://bitbucket.org/akoha/django-lean has not been updated since July 2010. There is an apparently "blessed" fork at https://github.com/anandhenry2002/django-lean which has not been changed since May 2012, when it was copied over from the original. The original's documentation is incorrect in ways that make following the examples impossible. (Though you can probably muddle your way through, as I did.) The new version's documentation has formatting problems that make it difficult to read on github. (This appears to be because it's the unchanged documentation from the old project, and BitBucket syntax doesn't work on Github.) The django-lean Google Group has not had a message since July 2012.
django-mini-lean https://github.com/DanAncona/django-mini-lean -- Updated as recently as February 2013, but undocumented.
Leaner - https://bitbucket.org/brianjinwright/leaner -- Last updated July 2012, and no docs.
Django-AB -- Last updated May 2009. Is not a package, and can't be installed via PIP or PyPI. After placing the checkout in my django app folder (and renaming the folder to ab) and following the installation instructions, I get an error loading the template loader that I have not tracked down further.
So far Splango appears to be the winner, as I've actually been able to get it more-or-less working (by manually installing the templates, and then editing them to fix Django 1.5 incompatibilities).
Can anyone point me to anything I've missed?
You have missed this app : https://github.com/mixcloud/django-experiments + https://github.com/disqus/gargoyle/
And then there's waffle: http://waffle.readthedocs.org/
It's simple, updated, maintained, but not very feature rich, it doesn't have any analytics/reporting stuff integrated. But then again, google analytics or mixpanel type of service is better for this.
I first looked at Django-AB and that is almost what I wanted, but I couldn't get it to work either. After looking at django-experiments and deciding I didn't want to mess around with redis yet, I decided to roll my own. I've tried to package it up nicely and make it easy to use for the beginner. It's super basic.

You can swap out entirely different page layouts with Google Analytics Experiments (their default experiment setup will redirect users to a different URL for each variation you have), although in general its much easier to interpret why something is more successful if you test smaller things against each other.
You are right that testing different funnels and user flows against each other using Google Analytics would require a lot of manual setup; although theoretically you could do it by swapping out different links and tracking your users with UTM campaigns.
For smaller A/B tests within the same page, I ended up using Google Analytics Experiments and writing a custom Django CMS plugin for adding a few variant options to a template, which queries the Google Analytics API and displays the correct variant using Javascript.
I'm working on upgrading an app from MX7 to 9 and testing it on my Mac's Dev server. I have a page with a large cfswitch--20 or so different cases, but none more than about 10-12 lines long. In CF9 only, whenever one of these cases does a cfinclude (which is almost all of them), I get an error along the lines of:
org.apache.bcel.generic.ClassGenException: Invalid branch target position offset for jsr[168](3):-1: -1: astore[58](2) 27 at
cfindex2ecfm581352809._factor4(/Users/dlaughland/Workspace/abcapp/surveymanager /surveys/survey/index.cfm:34) at
cfindex2ecfm581352809._factor28(/Users/dlaughland/Workspace/abcapp/surveymanager/surveys/survey/index.cfm:33) at

cfApplication2ecfc1705547767$funcONREQUEST.runFunction(/Users/dlaughland/Worksp ace/abcapp/Application.cfc:215)
I have googled extensively, and the best explanation I can find is a JDK error that was supposedly fixed in MX7! What is causing this? How do I fix it? This isn't the only page with a large cfswitch so I really don't want to re-write everything into cfif structures.
You can file a bug, but here are some steps that might help you work around the issue.
Try updating your JRE version, you can get the latest and greatest here. You can then ask CF to use that JRE via your CF Admin > Server Settings > Java and JVM. Further instructions here.
Try using a servlet container, for example use Tomcat instead of the bundled JRun. Here are some instructions.
Can I ask if you are going to use this in production on a Mac? If not, try running your code on a OS that will mirror your live site. The bug (if it is a bug) may not be in that version of CF.
Hope something there helps.
If you upgraded from CF7 to CF9 with the code already on the server, try deleting all of the classes from WEB-INF/cfclasses and restarting CF.
The senior developer (and the only person experienced with Django in our company) has moved away and left us. Shortly after this (following his instructions) we pushed a site live onto a shared server (we have full control over the server) and updated the version of Django to the latest release for the new site to work.
Since then we have had issues with the other Django project on there which was built using an older version.
The main issue that I have is that we have a crontab that sends an email to the client outlining their orders. I have taken a screen grab of the error that I am getting but if I am honest I am struggling to make any sense of it. The names have been changed to protect the innocent (client).

I have uploaded a screen grab again i-am-a-fish.co.uk/help2.png
All suggestions are very welcomed!
Deprecation warning is not the reason, you can ignore it (unless you want to fix and use hashlib). The reason is multipart_subtype which your custom EmailAlternativesMessage class is not defining. Try to find declaration of EmailAlternativesMessage and add
class EmailAlternativesMessage(EmailMessage):
multipart_subtype = 'alternative'
...
Now that your immediate problem is fixed, the real solution here is to use virtualenv to isolate each project's dependencies (including Django itself) from the others, so deploying a project based on recent Django doesn't require an immediate upgrade of every other site on the server.
