I doubt that we're going to upgrade to CF9. The thought of paying $4000 to Adobe for an upgrade that may or may not fix our problem (and is sure to come with its own new problems) just turns my stomach. I hate having to upgrade for bug fixes! I'm going to be looking at Bluedragon and Railo.

We're still getting the error after updating to the latest Sun 1.4.2 JRE, Did I miss why you couldn't try a much more recent one ? He's running CF 7, I think. I don't think you can use a newer JVM with CF 7 without breaking web services. I'd recommend trying CF 9 if that's a possibility.

Mark, We encountered the error running with JIT disabled, so JIT is vindicated. The WSDL shouldn't be changing at all. I haven't tried using a static version, and I'm pretty sure it wouldn't solve the problem fully. As I noted earlier, the error sometimes happens when requesting the WSDL and

Thanks for the reply, Dave. See my notes below. First, can you try this without clustering in place? That is, do you have a single-server environment you can try? I'll have to check with a colleague about whether we've seen this in a non-clustered environment. We use clustering more for

We've been thinking this error happens when the Stub file is regenerated by JIT right? What about internally with the data that comes back from a service call ... does it include objects that need defining? In other words is the error from some additional work done by the WS and NOT from

I think JIT is used all the time, not just after X executions of a certain piece of code. Anyway, we saw the error running without JIT, so it's not the guilty party. The WS does refuse to work after the error is thrown. Some switch gets flipped and CF/Java presumably can't find a class

You can try running Process Monitor (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx) while the application is in the bad state. Once you reproduce the error, check the log for the location that the app is trying to load the class and ensure it looks correct. If you don't see
