Coldfusion 9 Server Monitoring - Can't find "Last Error" log

[Sasha365i]

Hi,

Perhaps this is a stupid question, but I cannot locate where does Coldfusion write all the error details that it reports under "Last Error" in Coldfusion Server Monitor.

I am trying to get to the bottom of a pesky error message, but can't get any more information on it without looking at the actual logs. I tried application.log but errors there are very very old and not the ones that CF Monitor is reporting.

Here is the screenshot of what I mean:

Thanks for any suggestions!

Sasha.

Hi Sasha,

There are no such things as stupid questions tho there are dumb answers, hope this is not one of the latter.

There are two ways. Double click under Reports - requests with errors.

Or select Statistics tab > Errors menu > request with errors.

HTH, Carl.

Carl, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the statistics tab does not give me too much information to go on for debugging of this error. I am trying to pinpoint the exact URL that is throwing this error, but all it is giving me is the error template (in this case /ratings.cfm) and that the error ocurrs in settings.cfm line 1 - this is not really helpful at all. Would you have any suggestions how to debug this further?

Hi Sasha,

Error line 1 for something that I guess works 99% of the time does not provide much useful detail to go on - as you point out.

No doubt you have already looked in CFadmin > Debugging & Logging > Log Files > application.log or exception.log ?

Regards, Carl.

I have. Thanks for your replies though. Perhaps Coldfusion is just not logging those errors?
