Hello All, I'm getting desperate for a solution here. I will give the first person who helps me solve this problem two tickets to the movies.
I recently moved all my code from a ColdFusion 4.5 enterprise environment to a ColdFusion 5.0 enterprise environment. Nothing about the code has changed. When I run any CFMAIL tags, the following problem occurs intermittently: unknown exception condition TagCFMail::sendMessage Once the problem occurs once, a zero byte CFMAIL file is created in the CFUSION/SPOOL directory, and from then on no more message can be sent and this error continues forever until I shut down the server, delete all the zero byte files, and restart it. I've tried all of the following suggestions which I've found through my many hours of google research. 1) Make sure that the CF Server has full permissions to access to all the CFUSION/MAIL directories and that they all exist. - DONE 2) Install the SMTP patch and restart server. (Macromedia Article: http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn17552.htm) - DONE 3) Set registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\ CurrentVersion\Mail to a higher value - DONE - tried all the way up to 3000. Does not solve the problem. 4) Make sure you have installed all of the Hotfixes for ColdFusion 5.0 - DONE 5) Make sure there is enough disk space - 10 GB free - DONE 6) Make sure that you have a valid mail server in the administrator settings and that you have permission to access it. - DONE 7) Try specifying an SMTP server in the CFMAIL code. - DONE No change. Again, I know this subject has been discussed many times before, but I've dug pretty deep through MANY different archives and so far I can't find a solution. Please help. ---mark ----------------------------------------------- Mark Warrick Phone: (714) 771-5782 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.warrick.net ======================== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:184482 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
