like i said, if that works then you are missing the directory they are trying to put the file in. Possibly because of session timeouts? or it just doesnt exist?

this cant be all that is in the form.cfm file...
<input type="file" name="uploadFile">
it seems that i have gotten that same error at one time or another. I want to say that it happened when someone tried to upload a 0 byte file? I'm not betting any body parts on that though : )
if thats not it, try letting everyone upload to the same directory and see what happens.
if it works, then your missing whatever directory they are trying to upload to

Subject: CFFILE Mystery
I am having difficulty with a CFFILE upload statement. It works for
me everytime, regardless of which of my 4 machines i use (3 Win2K, 1
WinNT), and whether I access the site from my LAN or via dialup.
Even after resettingthe application and session vars.
Yet 3 others using machines running WinXP & Win2K all cannot make it
work. 2 of those use the same cable Net access company i do. All of
us are using IE6.
The server is mine, and is colocated off my site-- everyone reaches
the server via the Internet. I have everyone log into this secure
part of the app with the same user/password.
The error returned is "String index out of range: -7" (the integer
varies but is always negative). The CF debug info tells me the error
is occurring at my CFFILE statement.
The application is uploading the file to a path not under the Web
root on my CF server. The filename it is saved as is created
according to some submitted form info, that is saved to a SQL Server
table. When I use the app, the file uploads successfully, and the
data is entered in the table. I can verify that through the remote
desktop of the server.
Here is the relevant code:
Application.cfm:
*******************************************
<cfif session.siteID EQ 1>
<cfset siteDir = "city">
<cfelseif session.siteID EQ 2>
<cfset siteDir = "cham">
<cfelseif session.siteID EQ 3>
<cfset siteDir = "comm">
<cfelse>
<cfset siteDir = "misc">
</cfif>
<cfset docdir = "F:\docs\lcf\" & #siteDir# & "\">
Form.cfm:
*******************************************
<input type="file" name="uploadFile">
Action.cfm:
*******************************************
<cfset filename1 = #q_commID.commacro# & "_" & #q_mtgtype.mtgacro# &
"_" & #filedate#>
<cfset docpath = #docdir# & #filename1#>
<cffile action="" destination="#docpath#"
nameconflict="overwrite" filefield="form.uploadFile"
accept="image/jpeg, image/jpg, image/pjpeg, image/gif,
application/pdf">
I've been struggling with this for several days, so any help would be
greatly appreciated.
