Once you purchase and download the CF_FileManager Package, unzip the contents to a web accessible section of your web server.

There are no other components required or need to be installed.

CF_FileManager is build using the DCCOM Architecture For Custom Tags and therefore can not be installed in the custom tags folder of your ColdFusion Installation.

ColdFusion Tags Required

You will need the following tags to use CF_FileManager:

• CFFILE
• CFDIRECTORY

If your installation of ColdFusion is running in sandbox mode or on a shared server environment, you made need to ask your Administrator to enable the tags above.

Mapped Network Drives

CF_FileManager can be used with mapped network drives aswell as local drives on the server hosting the application. The application must use mapped network drives e.g: g:\ For security and compatability reasons, UNC Paths must be converted to drive letters.

The target drive must be accessible by ColdFusion. You can make a drive available to ColdFusion by logging the ColdFusion Application Server Service in as a user with access rights to the target drive.

The user used for logging ColdFusion in must have the same credentials as the user residing on the target drives machine.

Running CF_FileManager

Once the above steps have been completed, you can call CF_FileManager in your own application using the following code:

<cf_dccom component="dcFIleManagerV3" folder="c:\my files\"></cf_dccom>

If you have problems, please run the example.cfm file included in the CF_FileManager Package.
