Case sensitivity issue

Description

A problem occured when attempting a file upload through dmNews. It looks as though there are some references to "dmfile" and "dmflash" which should be "dmFile" and "dmFlash". I've found this in 2 locations:

farcrycms/trunk/packages/types/dmEvent.cfc
farcrycms/trunk/packages/types/dmNews.cfc

Both files were fixed locally by changing case.

Fixed for release with FarCry 7.0.

(note all mysql sensitivity issues can be addressed by running the database server in case insensitive mode)

Still a problem in 6.1.1.

Fix is an easy one - change the ftJoin from ftJoin="dmImage,dmfile,dmflash" to ftJoin="dmImage,dmFile,dmFlash" in the FarCryCMS plugin packages dmNews and dmEvent types.

As Michael mentions the workaround is to overwrite these properties in each of our projects for both these types.

Bump.

This issue is still active, editors cannot perform document management on dmfile due to the table being called dmFile. We've having to override dmNews.cfc in each project to get around it.

Fixed
