Question
Component location problems
I'm using a component via cfajaxproxy. It instantiates with
the call to cfajaxproxy but then when I used it to invoke some of
its functions in my javascript, I'm getting file not found errors.
Here's how things are set up:
c:\someDirs\webroot
c:\someDirs\currentDir
currentDir is mapped as a virtual directory off the webroot directory using the webserver's mapping ability. So when I address templates in currentDir via HTTP, it's done like this:
http://www.theServer/currentDir/someScript.cfm
Both the template that I'm running and the component are in currentDir.
If I move the component to webRoot, then the script containing cfajaxproxy fails saying "The device is not ready"
If I leave the component in currentDir, then the script will run, but when I attempt to execute any of the functions in the component via javascript calls to the object that is instantiated with cfajaxproxy, then those calls fail with the same type error message (i.e., "Uncaught exception: The device is not ready") which I get via FireBug.
I've tried creating a CF mapping to currentDir and then addressing the component that way (in my cfajaxproxy call) but this fails. Again, the obj instantiates but I get the device is not ready message in FireBug.
When reviewing the error in Firebug, I can see that the script is attempting to call my component off the root dir (i.e., like this: "/myComponent") rather than "/currentDir/myComponent".
Based on the site's security configuration, I do need to keep the current script in the directory it's currently in. Any suggestions?
