Finding the Oracle data source (ColdFusion application)

[LouieWarren]

I inherited a ColdFusion 10 application with an Oracle 11g back end.  Recently, I began receiving java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: [Macromedia][Oracle JDBC Driver][Oracle]ORA-00942: table or view does not exist error message when attempting to access the application on my Test server.  Since it is a gov't application, I do not have direct access to CF Admin or the database.  The gov't SysAdmin has verified the CF Admin connection is valid and connected.  The DBA has verified the data source exists and the database is up and running.  Thoroughly confused as to what is going on.   I posted on the Adobe ColdFusion support forum and they suggested I post it here to get database eyes on the issue.   The thread is here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/6854985#6854985

Thank you in advance.

I upgraded the ColdFusion on my development box from 8 to 10.   I've gone into CF10 Admin and verified the connection to the 10.2 database is correct (Data & Services > Data Sources >  Connected Data Sources > Verify All Connections or Verify my specific connection) and the status says "OK".  I still receive the error data source not found, when attempting to bring up the application.   What other things should I try?   Thank you in advance.

It is possible that the name of the datasource which Coldfusion cannot find is missing from the list of datasources in CF10 Admin.

That was my first thought.   On my development box, I checked and rechecked and everything is correct.  I've been told on my Test box that everything is correct.  The error on my Development box is Datasource Not Found.  The error on my Test box is [Macromedia][Oracle JDBC Driver][Oracle]ORA-00942: table or view does not exist.   I have access to CF10 Admin on my Development box, I do not have it on Test.  When verifying in CF10 Admin, the datasource shows as OK on my Development box.  On Test, the SysAdmin sent me a screen shot that says the same thing.  Severely stumped.

It helps to handle one box at a time. Let us take the development box, as you have access to its (Coldfusion 10) administrator.

Please quote the line of code that produces the error. If it is the cfquery tag, then show us the attributes you use.

[LouieWarren]

It doesn't display the code, like the Test box.   I just get the notice

Datasource xxxxxxxx could not be found.

The xxxxxxxx is the datasource I need to access and the same one that is set up in CF10 Admin.

The stack trace gives you the line number identifying where the error occurs. If you wish, you could send me the stack trace as a private message.

[LouieWarren]

There is no stack trace

Yoy should enable debug output, even if only temporarily. It can be quite handy in the development environment.

You enable it in the administrator, as follows. Navigate to Debugging & Logging => Debug Output Settings. Check the boxes to "Enable Robust Exception Information" and "Enable Request Debugging Output". Then click on the button to "Submit Changes".

Always check and double check the code before you say it's correct  Thanx BKBK for finding the extra space in the data source.  I don't think that is the problem with Test, but will check again.  Thank you.
