Cold Fusion Application Server

Hello all,

I'm having the weirdest issue with our CF server. They do not run. However when I start Cold Fusion Application Server, I cannot login to any of my backend admins. I suspect that it is because it tries to set an application variable. Then I check for to see if there the app var is set, if not it redirects to the login page.

I am guessing that the app var is not being set. If I stop Cold Fusion Application Server, everything works fine.

I don't want to have reinstall CF 5 (on Windows 2000 srv). Any ideas???

thanks

    Ah - that could be it. That's why I switched - which method are you using to store variables?

    Sorry - I got sucked off into some nasty stuff today,,,

    I should have been more clear before. This assumes that you are using SQL, and that you have set this up in CF Administrator (to use SQL tables to store your client variables).

    Is this the case? If so, look for these tables in your default database (probably).

    Let me know - I'm in the office for several more hours.

    Actually I am not storing the app vars in the database. I just use it to maintain a login session.

    Thanks!!

    DettCom,

    I had a similar problem to this, but I don't know if you have the same configuration (it was on CF 6.1). I don't know a whole lot on CF 5.

    I was storing client variables in the cdata/cglobal tables, and one variable's string ended up longer than I had planned for (although it was, in fact, correct). I had to increase the size of the "data" field in CDATA.

    Also, anything in the logs? (I know you probably would have mentioned if there were).

    Thanks for response.

    I have not seen anything in the logs. Where would I change the cdata lengths??

    Thanks!!
