variable problem that cropped up today.
I have an app that has been working fine for months on
ColdFusion 5.0 and Windows 2000.
Today it started throwing an error that a session
variable does not exist. After initial investigation,
it seems to behave as if the timeout for session
variables was a few seconds or something like that. I
have checked the timeout setting in the ColdFusion
administrator and the timeout in my APPLICATION.cfm
files, and both confirm much longer timeout
settings--20 minutes. But my variables seem to last
for just a few seconds (or there's something else
going wrong to destroy them prematurely)
I can click from page to page, and the variable will
continue to be defined. I can reload the same page a
few times, but often the third or forth time the error
is thrown--session variable not defined. It was
defined, but now its not--and there is nothing on the
pages that updates that variable, there is only output
code on these pages.
I have tried from another machine, and the same thing
happens. There is a relatively large amount of data
being held in the session variable (its a list of
numbers), but again, this has never been an issue
before. The machine has 200 megs of free memory, and
a couple gigs of free disk space.
I should mention that the server has done a few other
strange things lately including throwing error 26's
where none have occured before. The only major change
on the server that I am aware of is that the
administrative password was changed recently, but
Coldfusion seems to be working fine generally
speaking, and it runs as system account on this
server.
Thanks for any ideas.
