File not found - WEB-INF\exception\coldfusion\filter\FormValidationException.cfm

I'm seeing this message in my application log after submitting a form with blank "required" fields. This is happening on a new install of CF11 with lockdown guide measures taken. Can someone tell me how to fix it? 

 

"Error","ajp-bio-8014-exec-2","09/26/19","22:12:03",,"Exception thrown by error-handling template:"
"Error","ajp-bio-8014-exec-2","09/26/19","22:12:03",,"File not found: drive:\C11\cfusion\wwwroot\WEB-INF\exception\coldfusion\filter\FormValidationException.cfm The specific sequence of files included or processed is: drive:\C11\cfusion\wwwroot\WEB-INF\exception\coldfusion\filter\FormValidationException.cfm'' 

 

Thanks,

S

    Thanks Charlie. It turned out to be a file permission issue. My CFIDE and WEB-INF folder permissions were read/execute for the CF service account. Once I changed permissions to full control the error message went away.

     

    Thanks again.

    The fact that it refers to the path to the file (which it can't find) as "drive:\C11\" suggests that something in your CF configuration has been mistakenly changed from what it should be, like "C:\C11" to this "drive:\C11". Maybe someone was changing something by hand in some config and typed the word "drive". Maybe they meant to change "c" to "d". I don't know where this specific path is set (the error handler in question is the default one, for doing form validation).

    If I were in your shoes, I would use a tool to search the entire CF11 folder for any reference to the word "drive:" (or if that doesn't work, try "drive" alone).
