Helping a nonprofit site with their recently retired CF site. Site has been moved to new host and will be accessed only for historical needs. The URL has changed from http://globalgoodspartners.org to http://globalgoodspartners-org.securec77.ezhostingserver.com/ and that could be at least part of the issue.
Getting "Error Executing Database Query. FUNCTION globalgoods.fullname does not exist " when accessing the admin. The error is preventing the admin menu from displaying.
Original CF dev is not available, and I do not know CF. I suspect that globalgoods.fullname needs to be redefined to match the new URL, but that's just a guess.
Any help appreciated.

Good day,
I had created my online store on a VPS, I opted to move the store to a web hosting package. After installing opecart using softalicioucs the default installation worked fine. I then edited the config files in both admin and public_html to change the database to the original backup of my VPS.
Once I do this, "You don't have permission to access this resource. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request".
If I go back to the installed default database its all good again. I have set the necessary permissions etc for the user to access the backup database.
Anyone knows what is going on? is there some table storing access information?
After disabling MODSECURE I realised that the new installation created tables with prefixes not as my original interfaces, hence the solution was to change the prefix in the config file.
I'm in a brain-breaking problem here. I've created a nice Magento 2.1.7 installation with two websites (two stores, two domains) and somehow after a while we are unable to login the backend of Magento.
Invalid Form Key. Please refresh the page.
Now, after trying a few options, still no success. Checked core_config_data, edit max_input_vars, nothing works. The strange thing is, on the front it's still possible to checkout and do your shopping.
Anyway, I'm stumped here. Why is this happening, and how can this be fixed. Any help is welcome.
I often get this error, clearing the cookies for that site, then opening the admin panel in a new tab will resolve this.
You can recreate this error message if you double click the login button after filling out your login information.
Here are a few other reasons you may experience this issue
The form key inputs are outside of the form, you should check the html on the admin panel to check these inputs and exists and have correct values
Make sure the link you use to get to the admin page does not already have a form key in the url
Does this issue generate anything in var/log/system.log ?
Eventually, nothing helped, but what did the trick was creating a new install, setup this new install with all necessary modules (fortunately there were only four), configure the fresh installment like the old one (long live GitHub) and compare your fresh installation to the old one in the database table core_config_data. Basically reproduce your entire setup without any products in it, but just create your stores and categories.
If you spot any differences between the new installment and the old one in the core_config_data, edit them in the old one to be the same as your new one.
Next, edit your env.php with the database credentials to the old database which you've compared and edited.
And the last step, recompile, flush/clean cache and reindex.
Oh, and word of advice, if you're going to use https for your store, setup magento on https. I think something went very wrong when we've changed the base url's from insecure to secure.
I have added 2 pages in the content tree - index & Home Page. It was working fine until yesterday. Unable to preview 'index' in the Content editor (CE) now.
The error message is -
The requested document was not found
However, when I do Tools > Browse > Preview, from Sitecore Rocks, it opens fine. Also, I am able to preview 'Home Page' in CE without issue.
Following Mike's Solution Here, I tried to add the user 'Everyone' and removing 'extranet/Anonymous'. But the changes never Save.
Why does it happen to this page alone. No changes made to web.config and I am using only master DB.
UPDATE:
Here is what I have observed.
When 'index' is placed outside the 'en' folder, it can be previewed. Someone suggested that Sitecore is confused by the folder name with its languages. But renaming it to Test-en, also did not work.
I also tried this. Created 'index' outside 'en' folder. Then created a copy of the same inside the 'en' with the name 'index1'. I can preview index1 now, but if 'index' is deleted, it's the same issue again.
I have seen this happen a few times. On a new instance, I don't believe it is permissions, especially if you are using SIM to install (if you aren't - try it!)
Follow these steps and it should fix your issue. Make sure all instances of your browser are closed. They are known to keep hidden instances running. Stop all those tasks. Restart your IIS instance. Log Into your sitecore site with the magical password. Preview the page. You should be able to preview and in fact get the Experience Editor.
I do agree that Sitecore is confused as to the state of that it is logged in as, that is why it is important to close all browser instances.
If you still get this error, clear your logs. Do the above steps and send me your logs. I will look at them for any oddities.
Happy Sitecoring!
I have set up a Data Source in the ColdFusion Admin panel. When I try and use this in the application, I get the error:
Datasource [name] could not be found.
I have verified that the Data Source Name I am using in the application is identical to that which was set up in the admin panel (multiple tries both manual typing and ctr+a + ctr+c) with no luck.
What I have tried:
Clearing the cache (component and template)
I have even tried different names in the DSN (admin panel) and none seem to work.
Any guidance?
EDIT
There are 3 running instances. None of which have an admin panel that loads(ERR_CONNECTION_RESET). Verbatim error message:
The web site you are accessing has experienced an unexpected error.
Please contact the website administrator.
The following information is meant for the website developer for
debugging purposes. Error Occurred While Processing Request Datasource
test could not be found."
Related code that is throwing the error:
<cfset Application.datasource = "test">
<cfinclude template="templates/header.cfm">
<cfinclude template="templates/horizontal_navigation.cfm">
<cfquery name="getUsers" datasource="#application.datasource#">
select *
from role_lookup rl
I was under the impression that ColdFusion instances were isolated. Which seems true between apps, however the parent that spawned the instances "seems" to be allowing data source inheritance.
The issue was caused by having an identically named data source in the parent instance. The parent instance will override data sources of the same name, so when the parent data source of the same name was not pointed at a valid database it threw those errors.
I have not been able to find anything about this through research, so it might have been a coincidence and something else I changed around the same time could have been the actual issue.
attributes.datasource can work to when passing variables
I have had WFFM running on a Sitecore instance for a while, but it has recently stopped working. When I go to "Form Designer" on an existing form, I get the standard Sitecore "The requested document was not found" page.
Requested URL: /applications/modules/web
User Name: sitecore\admin
Site Name: shell
If the page you are trying to display exists, please check that an
appropriate prefix has been added to the IgnoreUrlPrefixes setting in
the web.config.
Note that the requested URL is stated as /applications/modules/web instead of /applications/modules/web forms for marketers.
A lot of development has occurred on this site recently, so I'm not sure when exactly this started happening.
Additional: info:
Folder and file permissions are correct.
I've tried reinstalling the WFFM package, and made sure that all the files are in place.
Several processors have been added to the HttpBeginRequest pipeline, but I removed them all to test if they were the cause - they weren't.
I haven't upgraded Sitecore since WFFM was working and the version is correct.
No errors are logged
EDIT
This also seems to be affecting the Sitecore Security Editor:
Requested URL: /appl
User Name: sitecore\admin
Site Name: shell
If the page you are trying to display exists, please check that an
appropriate prefix has been added to the IgnoreUrlPrefixes setting in
the web.config.
EDIT 2
Further investigation with this is making me think it is related to the Requested URL. I originally thought the the "Not found" page was displaying the requested url incorrectly. However, if I attempt to goto mysite.com/sitecore/shell/applications/fake folder with spaces/fake page with spaces I get this error message:
Requested URL: /applications/fake folder with spaces/fake page with
spaces
User Name: sitecore\admin
Site Name: shell
If the page you are trying to display exists, please check that an
appropriate prefix has been added to the IgnoreUrlPrefixes setting in
the web.config.
As you can see the Requested Url is correct in the error message. So in relation to my problem, I think maybe Sitecore is requesting the wrong URL in the first place.
Additionally if I go to the go the following url by typing directly into the browser, then the Security Editor opens as expected:
mysite.com/sitecore/shell/Applications/Security/User-Editor
This is quite old now but I thought I'd provide an update for anyone else who encounters the problem.
Unfortunately, Sitecore support weren't able to help beyond pointing out that setting the addAspxExtension attribute to 'true' in the link provider seemed to solve the problem. This may have been acceptable except that extensionless URLs were important to the customer.
In the end I had to amend my link provider so that addAspxExtension is set to 'true' in the web config, and then I set it to false inside the GetItemUrl method for specified sites only.
So now whenever the context site is 'Shell' or 'Admin' etc, the extensions are added by default, but switched off in my main website.
Of course, this is a work around. I still don't know how to actually fix the problem
So the first thing that I am going to tell you is that I suspect that there is something wrong with your site declaration for Sitecore Modules. In your web.config, there's a site declaration for "modules_shell" and "modules_website". Those are where the code files that run the modules are usually located... a shell folder to run the parts that run in the Sitecore shell and a web folder to run the part that is accessed by the externally facing site. Please check your site declarations (and the form.config file) to make sure that you're not in live mode or something like that. I would definitely say that this is where you should start looking.
The next thing is to say that your comments about Sitecore not serving a url in the /sitecore/shell directory is really not surprising. Sitecore processes all requests unless you specifically tell it to ignore requests (like setting it in the IgnoreUrlPrefixes in web.config), it's going to try processing it. Like going to /sitecore/shell/applications gives me a layout error because it doesn't have anything set to handle that request. Now your error suggests that there is something wrong with Site declarations.. however, even if they were all right, it still wouldn't work.
