Question

Need help with cferrors.

I’ve added cferror Request and Exception to my Application page. If the error wasn’t too bad that a mail can’t be sent to me I receive an e-mail containing Session details and information which might help me track the error.

The problem I’m having is that I’m getting errors that I can’t get myself!
The website is an online questionnaire and hasn’t got anything more than a series of form pages.

The steps I’ve taken to solve the errors are answering the same questions the same way as the client and using the same operating system and browser. Basically try and create the same environment the client’s operating under. I seem to run through the pages without any problems!

Most of the emailed errors I get back haven’t got any Session information or details attached in them except that a session is not defined. These errors are quite confusion because I would’ve defined the sessions at the beginning when the client entered the site. As a test I increased the session details to be held by the server for 5 days, this didn’t make any difference either.

Thanks in advance for any help.

    It's possible they lost their session, or their session timed out.

    It's also possible that their browser security settings are preventing your CF-server from sending/retrieving the CFID and CFTOKEN vars to and from their cookies.

    This is it, I can't think how but I'm sure it's possible that the session was lost some how?!?!
    I can't see how the session could've timed out really because I've set the time out time to run out in days rather than hours.

    I can't really comment on whether the browser security could start preventing the CF-server from sending/retrieving the CFID and CFTOKEN. Can this happen???
    I am sending the CFID and CFTOKEN through the URL and not relying on cookies so this could be a possibility! How would I solve if it was the case?
    I have noticed in some of the e-mails I've received that the URL parameters are missing the CFID and CFTOKEN but this is only in a few.
