Personally I have 4 variables defined in my application.cfm
Two are for HTTP addreses and two are for path to files:
<CFSET application.webRootDir =
getDirectoryFromPath(getCurrentTemplatePath())>
<CFSET len = len(getBaseTemplatePath()) - len(application.webRootDir)>
<CFSET application.webRootUrl = left(cgi.script_name,
len(cgi.script_name) - len)>
<CFSET application.HTTPRootURL = cgi.server_name & application.webRootURL>
<CFSET application.serverRootDir = listDeleteAt(application.webRootDir,
listLen(application.webRootDir, "\"), "\") & "\">
For instance, on my developing site, I get:
application.webRootUrl /MyCustomer/
application.webRootDir C:\inetsrv\wwwroot\MyCustomer\
application.serverRootDir C:\inetsrv\wwwroot\
application.HTTPRootURL localhost/MyCustomer/
On the production server it gives:
application.webRootUrl /
application.webRootDir D:\INETSRV\WEB\MyCustomer\
application.serverRootDir D:\INETSRV\WEB\
application.HTTPRootURL www.MyCustomer.com/
Using these variable whenever I need for whatever situation solves all
the problems.
I also have a tool on the admin site that lists all these varables when
I'm not sure which one I should use.
