Help with cfapplication - datasource

Report · Dec 22, 2011

I should be able to use datasource="" in the cfapplication tag.

When I do, I get the error:

Attribute validation error for tag CFAPPLICATION.
It does not allow the attribute(s) DATASOURCE. The valid attribute(s) are APPLICATIONTIMEOUT,CLIENTMANAGEMENT,CLIENTSTORAGE,LOGINSTORAGE,NAME,SCRIPTPROTECT,SECUREJSON,SECUREJSONPREFIX,SERVERSIDEFORMVALIDATION,SESSIONMANAGEMENT,SESSIONTIMEOUT,SETCLIENTCOOKIES,SETDOMAINCOOKIES.

I just want to take advantage of the Coldfusion 9 feature so I don't have to include the datasource attribute for every cfquery tag.

I get the error on both my local machine and the server. Both have Coldfusion 9.

Thanks

Do your machines also have another version of CF installed? What do you get when you CFDUMP the server scope?

If I have this for my application.cfm:

cfdump shows this:

If I change it to:

I get this for my dump:

Hmmm. Works fine for me on CF 9.0.1 (you're just on 9.0, I note...).
