Might it be that your page-not-found.cfm is located at a directory level other than where your code live? In which case it may not benefit from the application.cfm you'd have there, which is doing the CFAPPLICATION tag that enables the application scope?
If that's the case, either move the page-not-found.cfm into the same directory as code you expect to have those variables or put a CFAPPLICATION with the same NAME into the page-not-found.cfm or an application.cfm in its directory or parent. Hope that helps. /charlie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10 Sent: Friday, May 05, 2006 2:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] Missing template handler does not have access to application scope? Trying to get "page-not-found.cfm" as a missing template handler to work in CFMX7. When I request a non existing cfm page foo.cfm this code in page-not-found.cfm is executed fine: <cfset request.txt="Page not found"> <cfoutput> #request.txt# </cfoutput> This does not work fine: <cfset request.txt="Page not found"> <cfoutput> #request.txt# </cfoutput> <cfdump var="#application#"> CF will display the text "Page not found" in the browser, but will then generate the default "Error Occurred While Processing Request", complaining that the foo.cfm file could not be found. I rely on my application variables for displaying my standard site layout, so at this moment I'm unable to properly format a page not found error. Any suggestions? Thanks!
