Bruce: I see this from time to time in similar circumstances and I usually find that the value of the variable that I was attempting to catch with the CFPARAM was set to NULL. I was expecting to trap for an undefined variable, but the variable was defined--as a NULL.
For example, in your case the Session.someVar was set as a NULL and the CFPARAM default didn't fire because the var does exist but the value is NULL, which cannot be evaulated as boolean. Try dumping the vars to see what's really there. Just a thought, Chris Lofback Sr. Web Developer TRX Integration 28051 US 19 N., Ste.

We have errors that are generated on the CF server (as part of the site error handling) send an email to the webmaster. We have never seen this error before. It makes no sense. We have no clue what the problem is. The code it refers to has been working fine for months and months. Then on a Sat. after noon, out of the blue, it triggers and virtually every visitor to our site generated this error...actually it doesn't appear to be an error. It didn't impede their ability to navigate the site. Just generated emails. It's a simple CFELSEIF Session.someVar conditional that it's tripping on. Earlier that session var is set by default to FALSE if not defined, in a CFPARAM statement. We bounced the CF server this morning and after a few minutes of additional errors, they have now stopped (as if a queue emptied or something). Has anyone else had this happen or have a clue what would cause this? We are running CF Server 5 ----- Sample Message ----- > Diagnostics: InsideText Cannot convert to boolean.Please, check the ColdFusion manual for the allowed conversions between data typesThe error occurred while processing an element with a general identifier of (CFELSEIF), occupying document position (124:2) to (124:31). > > Template: /webtest/latticesemi/web/account/login.cfm > > Query String: > > Date/Time: Mon May 06 09:19:30 2002 > > Referer: http://www.latticesemi.com/account/login.cfm > > Remote Address: 193.135.247.66 > > Browser: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) > ______________________________________________________________________ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
