Hey Magnus,
Unless there is a bug in the engine I imagine you just need to make sure
that the cfcaptcha resource file is ignored by whatever URL rewriting you
are using. Are you using an URL rewriting or any other "thing" that manages
your resource files? As Alan mentioned cfcaptcha needs to caught by the
engine so if there's anything trying to take control of the captcha
resource file it won't work. (Hope this is making sense)
It's similar to the other tags like cfjavascript that create files. Here is
the rule I use in Tuckey to ignore resources that the engine needs:
<rule enabled="true">
<name>Generic Pretty URLs Pass-through</name>
<condition type="request-uri"
operator="notequal">^/(index\.cfm|error\.cfm|robots.txt|osd.xml|flex2gateway|cfide|cfformgateway|assets|favicon|bluedragon|debugger|media|load\.cfres)</condition>
<from>^/(.*)$</from>
<to type="passthrough">/index.cfm/$1</to>
</rule>
The easiest way to check if cfcaptcha is working is with a completely blank
application with no MVC framework or URL rewriting. Maybe use JettyDesktop
to remove your server configuration from the cause too.
Thanks,
Aaron J. White
