Figured it out! Fortunately, a programming error - I'd mistakenly defined an argument in a REST-enabled CFC with an HTTPMethod of "GET" as an array instead of a string. As such, even if it wasn't being called, it still caused the REST response of an unrelated CFC to fail (or, at least, return null).
I'm glad it's working, but this is easily the worst error situation I've come across, and it seems like it's an issue with remote-access CFCs in general. I've had strange errors before with a remote-invoked JSON-returning CFC (through CFAJAXPROXY) that had an error, but the server, instead of passing along an exception, said it was unable to find the CFC. It's more than a little annoying that there wasn't a single understandable error message or even a meaningful stack trace in any of the error logs at the very least. Ok, rant over, Thanks for your help/sanity check, Ray - it helped me narrow things down quite a bit. I'm going to go for a walk now :) - Jim On Tue, Jan 15, 2013 at 10:51 PM, Dan Baughman <[email protected]>wrote: > > I'm an old school coder and always serialize stuff manually without > using the built-in garbage and it works great that way.
