    Hi, We applied this update to our CF server and immediately started getting errors on Query of Query.  The only thing CF returns in the error message is "getColumnType() null".   The QoQs that it errored on so far were using UNION.  Is this a known issue?

     

    Another QoQ error we immediately got was "The aggregate function [SUM(expression)] cannot operate on an operand of type [VARCHAR] ".   However this same page worked perfectly before the update.  Is this also a known issue?   We would like to use the latest update asap, but can't use it until the errors are resolved.  Will await a reply.

    So that someone else might try to replicate the problem, can you clarify please both which CF version you are on (2021 or 2018), and also which update you had been on BEFORE applying the one released today?

     

    Also, Adobe folks, I hope you can please get the cffiddle.org site updated ASAP so that people could use that to test things like the above.

    Sorry for not posting that.  We are using CF 2018.  We were using update 11 before this update, and that update was working OK.
