Session scope error while accessing Administrator after installing ColdFusion 2018 Update 9

Has anyone experienced "The requested scope session has not been enabled" error after installing Update 9 and trying to access CF Administrator? The only fix so far was to revert to Update 8.

 

Also, I have enabled Secure Cookie under Memory Variables. As a result, I no longer could login to CF Administrator through non-secure HTTP default port 8500.

I had to enable HTTPS/TLS protocol in Coldfusion's Tomcat server.xml file, add HTTPS port 8443 in order to login securely to CF Adminitsrator. Is this a bug? Coldfusion 2016 works fine via HTTP with the same settings enabled.

    If you are able to reproduce then I would recommend adding a bug report:

    After applying Update 9 somehow Default Timeout for Application variables was set to 0 for all - Days, Hours, Minutes, and Seconds. I set Default Timeout to 1 Hour and everything started working without any issues. And having HTTPS enabled for CF Administrator is not a bad thing anyway.

    GiedriusV,  I've never heard that happen with any CF update, let alone this latest one. And given what this latest update does, I can't myself see how that would be an effect. Have you done anything to prove that it happened for sure, or more than once?

     

    Also, what do you mean about "having HTTPS enabled for CF Administrator"? That also is not a feature of this or any CF update, nor related to application timeouts, nor it it enabled by default?

     

    I don't ask these questions to scold. Rather it's just to get clarification for you and anyone else who may read this.
