Session Variables not staying set between pages

I found the problem to be that the CF server did not have "Use J2EE session variables" set.
That is a different matter. Coldfusion session management and J2EE session management are the two available options. You might just have chosen to use the J2EE option.


setclientcookies="no"

I think that setting tells Coldfusion not to set Coldfusion session cookies on the browser. Change it to "yes".

Do you have cookies disabled in your browser. It's an often overlooked
fact that if a browser does not accept cookies session state can not be
maintained without taken extra steps to pass the required keys in the
URLs of all requests of an application.

Check your application.cfc/cfm file to see if you have enabled session variables.
