Hi All,

I've solved this problem for my server - however it may or may not be
the same problem that others have been suffering.  This has not been
an intermittent problem as some people described it - but was due to a
configuration error.

The resulting error message was the particularly cryptic:
<snip>
java.io.IOException: Corrupt form data: no leading boundary:
(some binary garbage)
                                               at com.oreilly.servlet.multipart
.MultipartParser.<init>(MultipartParser.java:171)
</snip>

Turns out this was because the file could not be read - because it
didn't get saved on the server because the temporary directory where
CF was trying to store the files didn't exist.

You can check what temporary directory CF is using by using
<cfoutput>#GetTempDirectory()#</cfoutput>

It will typically be something like this (on a linux box) :
[coldfusionmx root]/runtime/servers/default/SERVER-INF/temp/wwwroot-tmp/

Creating this directory and ensuring that the permissions are set
correctly for it sorted this out nicely for me.   No wonder you
haven't been able to replicate it Geoff - you've a team of people
ensuring everything is configured correctly ;-)

Hope this helps some people - cheers,
Mark
