I don't think permissions or other processes would be an issue. This is on my local machine, and I haven't had problems before. Now, I'm doing a cffile delete and it's not even throwing an error if the file doesn't exist (which it should, right?).
Maybe I'll restart CF and see what happens. :) On Tue, Jan 12, 2010 at 2:55 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > > I would check permissions too.
