I have used the collection tags and get the same result.
There is an entry in the bluedragon.xml for the collection:
<cfcollection>
<collection name="newcollection">
<name>newCollection</name>
<storebody>false</storebody>
<relative>false</relative>
<path>C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
7.0\webapps\exchangenew\WEB-INF\bluedragon\work\cfcollection\newCollection</path>
<language>english</language>
</collection>
</cfcollection>
Shouldn't the administrator set things up properly?
