Hi,

Had a very strange occurrence on Friday that mystifies me: while doing some
testing, two of my client's analysts experienced the same error, as follows:

"Element user is undefined in a Java object of type class
coldfusion.runtime.MemorySessionScope"

The element "user" is a struct within the Session structure. It is created
at login, along with a number of other session variables. It is only used
within a couple of specific areas of an application suite, which are still
undergoing testing. It is not used in the bulk of the suite, which is much
older.

At least one of these users had accessed one of these new areas somewhat
earlier, so the element was not lost then. At the same time these analysts
were testing, I logged in and went to these newer areas without incident, so
the structure existed for me.

At least one of the analysts logged out, closed his browser, and logged back
in multiple times, with the same error resulting. I do not know if he
cleared his browser of cookies, however. But logging back in would have
created a new Session cookie (I believe). He later changed his password,
logged out and logged back in with the new password, and the error
disappeared.

During this whole time, I was able to work in these areas with no
difficulty.

During this whole time, both analysts were able to work in other
applications areas -- ones which did not look for the Session.User struct --
so other session variables were evidently unaffected.

It's almost as if the structure was lost from memory -- but for two
different users.

Does anyone have any insight into this?
