If you remove the logic (CFTRY/CFLOCK)
. everything goes back to normal?

Subject: CFX_SPELL Question/Problem

Hi All,

We are having a problem I hope the list can help with.

In a Nutshell, We purchased Forta's CFX_Spell tag and wrote a UI for it.
Tested it with no problem. Then we moved it to our Production machine
which is running CF 4.01 on Windows NT 4. (Before you say upgrade to CF5
or MX, Let me just state that this box houses a business critical app
that runs fine under cf4.01 and we have not wanted to upgrade just yet.)

When we moved it to Production and the user's started hitting the dll,
the tag stopped working. After doing some better research I learned the
CFX tag was not multi-thread safe and it was suggested to add <cflock>
around the tag to force it to be single threaded. Did that and added
<cftry><cfcatch> logic around the cfx tag. I have included the logic
below. Anyway, The additional logic caused something strange to happen.
The Server Seemed to loose all session/Application variables and Would
not allow access to any CFM pages only .html pages. We immediately shut
off access to the dll and all code touching it. I sent numerous emails
to forta, but have not gotten a response. Has anyone else experienced
these problems? any resolutions/ suggestions on how to get this to work?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the code used:

<cftry>
   <cflock name="spellock" timeout="20" throwontimeout="Yes">
       <CFX_SPELL TEXT="#Form.CommentBox#" name="spell"
LANGUAGE="#language#">
   </cflock>
  <cfcatch type="ALL">
    <cflocation url="Update_review.cfm" addtoken="NO">
  </cfcatch>
</cftry>
