Here's a possible suggestion: case of the file name.

On Unix, the file names are case sensitive.  So, maybe a piece of code has
the wrong case in a link.  Or when you deploy the file to your server, you
are putting it in the wrong case, since MS doesn't care about case you may
just be putting a second file out instead of overwriting the original file.

I haven't had the specific problems you guys are reporting, but have had
file name case problems before on my Unix box.

EC, would love to but there is absolutely no consistency in
the errors.  Could be a what looks like a typing error, 
could be a line of code, could be what looks like reversion to
the prior code,  or it could be code that looks like somebody
else (highly unlikely) touched it -- causing the "Who did this" reaction.

It is never the same .cfm and has happened across programs.
It is not every day or week or month.  It is occassional and
can always be corrected although finding out what the problem
is takes time especially when the program was working the
night before.

I know this sounds like going to a car mechanic and saying
occasionally, sporadically, I hear a "boink" and asking them 
to fix it.  And, in my lifetime, only once and very recently, 
I sheepishly made this crazy kind of report to my mechanic,
expecting the usual -- if it happens again call me -- and,
to my complete and utter surprise, it turned out to be
something very specific for which they had a fix.

So, I'm hoping that is true in this case too!

More information is probably needed to make any good suggestion.
Senarios? Error messages? Examples? :)

Hi all. 

We have been experiencing code problems on our Unix server.
Pages that are working on day 1 are NOT working on day 2.
It is NOT multiple developers hitting the same code at the
same time as far as we can track.  It is NOT that changes
are not being received by the server, we can see the effects
of changed code.  

We are working on an NT platform with our data stored on
SYBASE IQ12 and ColdFusion on a UNIX platform.

Any and all possible solutions would be appreciated and
will be explored.

Thanks,
Carol
