[cfaussie] CF8 file not found strangeness

2009-06-22 Thread Ryan
Hi all, I've had a shared CF8 site set up at WebCentral for a relatively simple site. It's exhibiting a really strange error. If I FTP upload a file, say testfile.cfm (doesn't matter what is in it) it will work fine. If I then re-upload exactly the same file, it's returning a File not Found

What happens with *.htm / *.html files loaded to the same path? It you got the same error you could get them to stop focussing on ColdFusion. Cheers Peter On Jun 22, 7:43 pm, Ryan rya...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I've had a shared CF8 site set up at WebCentral for a relatively simple

Do you have Show friendly HTTP error messages turned on in your browser settings? If so this could be masking an actual CF error message and the file you are loading up could not be getting updated because of the template caching on the cf server? _ From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com

Nope, it's a ColdFusion error, not the IE error page. Besides I use FireFox for dev so unlikely I'd see the IE error page :) Here is the problem. This file was uploaded by me, overwriting a previous version: http://svc009.wic020v.server-web.com/coldfusion.cfm This file was uploaded by a

Ryan, here are a couple of stabs in the dark: First, if you flush the template cache (in the CF Admin, on the caching page, clicking the button at the bottom for clear template cache now). Does that at least solve the problem? It would only be temporary, but it would prove that the problem is

My initial thought was that your mapping were wrong for coldfusion and it didn't know where the root of your web server was. However the coldfusion1.cfm and dircontents.cfm files disprove that. The next thing to examine would be the privileges for reading the file. It could be possible that when

Thanks Charlie, This is the most frustrating thing about this issue. It's on a shared server at WebCentral so I have no access to the CF Administrator. I tried poking around the file system using CF but they have security turned on so I can't see the config files. Normally yeah I'd be playing

Ah right, shared hosting. :-( Forgot. (And yes, those really are tragic replies you're getting from them.) Here's one more simple possible explanation and fix. It could be that while you were uploading the file, someone requested it right while it was being uploaded, which would have involved

Hi We've recently upgraded from CF7 to CF8 and our web service (published web service) no longer works. I've done some really basic tests such as create a new CFC with 1 remote method but I still get a blank screen. The HTML shows about 18--20 empty lines. Totally weird. Can someone please

Matthew, in your example you're just expecting to get the WSDL back, right? When you do a view source, what do you see? It should be a lot of SOAP XML. If it's anything else, it could give you clues as to an error in the code (Even as simpler as the CFC is, and it did work for me.) But do note

Fair point, Kai. And in case one can't use the servicefactory approach described there (which is technically unsupported and often disabled by the Admin's on a shared host), here are a couple other solutions. The first is how one can do it with the Admin API (as of 7), but it does require

SOLUTION: If anyone is interested I discovered that the onRequest method in App.cfc was guilty. If you're familiar with this method you'll know that if you choose to use it you need to include a cfargument called targetPage and then you need to have a cfinclude template=#Arguments.targetPage# /.
