We had session bumped up to infinity! <grin>
No, we went through all the regular channels, checking our Application.cfm,
making sure everything was just the way it was supposed to be, had the host
up the timeout in Administrator, the whole nine yards.
What I found out though, was if CF restarted for any reason while a session
was going, it lost session state. And I think here-in lies our culprit.
We aren't storing anything more complex than a user's name and reference
number, and in the admin section, a security level. That's it. Nothing more.
So, from reading and listening to some advice over on CF-Talk, I've been
persuaded to try client vars. The deed is done now. All I have to do is sit
back and wait for any more errors to pour in.
I would really love to pull together a DEFINITIVE, FINAL wording on when to
use which and exactly how to use which in exactly which situation. Does this
exist anywhere?

Couldn't you just bump up the timeout setting for session vars? What is the
session vars are holding query sets?
