Scott, this usually means simply that what you're trying to do in the CFERROR page itself generating an error, so it's passing it "up the chain". If you have a server-wide handler, then that gets called. Otherwise (or if that, too, had an error) then you get the default error message. Of course, either of those could also do a CFRETHROW after handling the error which could still lead to what appears to be a "normal" CFERROR, again if nothing above it "in the chain" handles it. My recommendation in such an instance is that you try calling the error page directly. Does it work as expected? If it fails because of references to CFERROR or ERROR scope variables, try commenting them out (though those lines could indeed be where the error is). Let us know how it goes. /Charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/
_____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scott Caillier Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 2:29 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] cferror question Hi, I've been using error handling in my applications for several years with great results. However, I'm trying to use the <cferror> tag on a new Coldfusion 7 server and I'm not able to override the server's default error message. My admins are telling me that the settings are the same in dev (where cferror works) and prod. Dev is 7.02 and prod is 7.01, but I don't think that's our problem. Is there something they need to enable on the server to get cferror working? Here's an example of the canned message that I'm getting: The web site you are accessing has experienced an unexpected error. Please contact the website administrator. The following information is meant for the website developer for debugging purposes. Error Occurred While Processing Request error description error details Resources: * Enable Robust Exception Information to provide greater detail about the source of errors. In the Administrator, click Debugging & Logging > Debugging Settings, and select the Robust Exception Information option. * Check the ColdFusion documentation <http://www.macromedia.com/go/proddoc_getdoc> to verify that you are using the correct syntax. * Search the Knowledge Base <http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/> to find a solution to your problem.
