When loading webpage with CFTREE tag it does not work.  I am getting ClassNotFoundException - coldfusion.applets.CFTreeApplet.class.

    I fixed the issue doing the following.

    I made of copy of the CFIDE virtual directory in the root of the web site and that did not help.  Then, I manually recreated the CFIDE virtual directory back to the default settings and rebooted the server and the CFTREE started working.

    Is CFIDE as virtual directory added to your website?

    Rather than doing this - it's a substantial security risk which has been exploited a few times recently - yuo're better off to just put the /CFIDE/scripts dir somewhere within your website and use <cfajaximport> to tell CF's JS code to look there instead of /CFIDE/scripts.

    If you insist on exposing your /CFIDE directory, make sure you're fully patched, and follow the CF lockdown guide (except for the bits about securing /CFIDE, obviously ;-)
