Thanks everyone for the lively discussion! To try and test this issue I pulled all the code out of the includes into the parent and was still getting the same crap.
I finally got a reply from HostMySite.com: "This has to do with the MySQL server closing connections and CF not knowing about it. I have unchecked "Maintain connections across client requests" for your DSN as this will force CF to reconnect each time. While it does add a little overhead, its the only way to correct the problem you're having. Basically, because CF is caching its connection to the MySQL server, it thinks that there is an open connection, when in fact the MySQL server probably closed the connection. We need to keep our timeouts low on MySQL servers to prevent reaching max connection limits due to poor coding on some of our customers sites." This sounds like a crock of shit. This should be blowing all sorts of gaskets, not just missing variables. This is the strangest thing I've seen ColdFusion do in a long time and doesn't really explain it, but it did seem to solve the problem. Congrats on the move Scott! Missed you at WebDU this year, I didn't have anyone to watch Fin drink me under the table. PS: I'm looking for CF/Flex developers in Canberra again, so if anyone has some recommendations, please let me know. The projects will be many and varied and hopefully very interesting.
