Going to take a wild stab in the dark, and say someone is trying to hack into your site seeing what they can see.

 

Obviously they would be guessing variables, hence the cfparam failures.

 

No idea if that helps your or not.

Subject: [cfaussie] cferror

 

Hi all,

 

I'm using cferror to catch any errors on my pages.

 

Some strange things are happening:

 

1. Some errors are coming thru with the cferror.message var set as "-1". No other detail is coming up. It is on a page that works fine for 99.9% of users.

 

2. <cfparam> is throwing some users for not having a form variable passed. Sure enough a <cfdump var=#form#> that is emailed to me from the page confirms that there are no form variables. Only the cgi.HTTPReferer says that it came from a page which should have passed a form variable across. There no links on the refering page, the only way to get to the page with the error is to submit a form.

 

Any ideas how this could be happening?

 

3. I'm also getting some <cfparam> errors where the cgi.HTTPReferer is blank. Is this just users/ robots typing in the link, or could it be something else?

 

Maybe i should mention that the site is pretty busy... about 110 to 120,000 page views yesterday!

 

Thanks in advance for any advise!


Gav
