Re: [Reactor for CF] HELP--not of type reactor.reactorFactory

[Brad Haas]

Kevin, I can definitely tell you that it works without a mapping.  I've got plenty of sites on shared servers and none of them have mappings.  My problem has to do with one site at one host.  As soon as their tech support resolves the issue, I'll let everyone know what was going on. --Brad On Jul 26, 2006, at 6:10 PM, Kevin Roche wrote: I would like to see a definitive answer to this since I want to use reactor on a couple of sites on a shared server myself. The instll documentation definitely says "add a mappling in CF to /reactor", but is that required or just for safety? I will try removing mine and see if it all breaks.

It's possible that your webroot and CF's webroot will differ, especially if you are on a shared host. If you do an ExpandPath("/"), that directory should be the one that Reactor is in.

It's always hard contacting a web host's tech support with a programming issue.  What do you tell them?  My site works on two other servers.  All other CF functionality works except for initializing reactor. --Brad On Jul 26, 2006, at 2:33 PM, Dan Vega wrote: See, I am still curious where you are form their "webroot". We have a shared server that customers host on here and from the webroot it is as follows f:\webroot\      -client1      -client2 If that is the case reactor.reactorFactory will not work unless they have put your path in their extensions path. That may be an option as well, see if they can add your path in the extension manager On 7/26/06, Brad Haas < [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: I don't plan to map at all (too dangerous).   I just want to keep the reactor directory in the web root.  My question was more of what if someone else on the server created a mapping called reactor and I was hitting their reactor instead of mine, but as Dan pointed out this shouldn't happen.
