Many thanks to Simeon Bateman and Sean Corfield for helping me solve this :)
The problem was that I was requesting the other page from within a <cftransaction> tag, and the isolation level was such that the page it was requesting was blocked from hitting the table it needed until the backend's transaction was complete, which wouldn't happen until cfhttp was done. I had cf commit the transaction before making the http request, and all is well now. /kam -----Original Message----- From: Figy, Kam Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 2:55 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: cfhttp weirdness I've got two cf apps, which need to exchange messages over a loosely coupled connection. I've been using a cfc on the receiving end that I've been sending plain old http GET requests using cfhttp. Today I added a new message that can get sent, and started getting HTTP 408 request timeouts when I sent the cfhttp request off. All the other methods get called fine, just this one doesn't. Web browsers can request the exact same URL with no issue, but cfhttp (with timeout 10s), opening it as a web service, and a java.net.URLConnection all just time out or hang indefinitely. I've managed to track it down to one thing: This method is the only one that invokes a cfquery. Commenting out the query causes the timeout error to disappear. Can anyone think of why running a query would cause such issues with cfhttp? The page seems to run despite the request timeout, because a file that gets written after the query gets written even when I get the error back. I'm using apache2 + CF7.0.1 + CHF1.
