Pete, Make sure the APPLICATION NAME (this.name declared at the top along with the session stuff and timeouts etc.) is different for each domain. This can be done by using the URL itself as the application name. If the names are different then each "site" will be it's own application with it's own scope (and hence it's own application.applicationname

Over time, I have developed a CF web-based content management system (hey, who hasn't?). The software is currently running a handful of sites, all on different web hosts. It works fine in this mode. Recently, I realized that I could get a VPS for less money than the several web hosting accounts I'm using; this would have the added benefit of allowing me to update the core software in one location rather than in several. I have it set up so that IIS sees the root directory of the CMS software as each web sites' root, and then I set up a virtual directory to the site-specific content for each domain. For instance, c:\inetpub\wwwroot\app\core is set as the root directory; in it, I have an application.cfc file that sets up variables, security, etc. For site-specific stuff in the application.cfc, I am including a file that sets the app name, etc. before the onApplicationStart() runs. I then have the site-specific stuff (templates, config files, etc.) in separate directory paths, each set up mapped to /site as virtual directories for their respective web sites. The problem I am having is that application.applicationname is being set to whatever site loads first; i.e., I have SiteA and SiteB set up in IIS, restart CF, and if I load SiteB first, then SiteA has SiteB's application.applicationname value. This is a problem. Has anyone here tried to do this and succeeded? Or do I need to rethink how I have this site architected?
