@Barry: tried that brother! no dice. @Mark: that's the thing: there is no surrounding code. this happens with the most basic interface:
<cfinterface> <cffunction name="hi" access="public" returntype="String"/> </cfinterface> trying to view that cfc in the browser throws the error. And, like I said, adding that mapping into cfadmin fixes the problem. but I know I shouldn't need to do that. Now, I've gotten this error on 3 different machines so far. BUT, on my home PC, which has an identical setup, filesystem-wise, I don't have the problem. strange. marc On Wed, May 7, 2008 at 11:48 PM, Barry Beattie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > and the other thing I encounted last week is the caching of compents, > especially when you're still cooking them. > > I didn't end up tracking down exactly why it was happening, just > survived the workaround of clearing the cache (in the CF admin) when I > noticed it was happening. > > just a thought > > > > > On 5/8/08, Mark Mandel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Marc - > > > > What is the surrounding code you are using to create your component? > > > > Mark > > > > On Thu, May 8, 2008 at 2:21 AM, Marc Esher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > Hey All, > > > I'm hitting a weird problem when using cfinterface. the error is: > > > > > > The WEB-INF.cftags.interface ColdFusion component or interface name, > > > used to extend or implement the blah.blah.blah component is invalid. > > > > > > what this is saying is that it can't find WEB-INF.cftags.interface > isn't valid. > > > > > > In order to get this to work, I had to add a mapping into cfadmin to > > > point /WEB-INF/cftags to c:\coldfusion8\wwwroot\WEB-INF\cftags > > > > > > What's weird is that I'd expect cfcomponents to fail, too, since the > > > component.cfc is in the same place as the interface.cfc > > > > > > Anyone ever see this before?
