The CFLOCATION tag tells the server to send a 302 - object moved response. BUT depending on how your page is written, the order of the tags matters... if for some reason, any other tag that stuffs the HTTP response fires first, the CFLOCATION won't work.
In older versions if CFLOCATION wasn't the first tag on the page, it wouldn't work. If you can sniff the session (or at worst, tail -f on your access log file), check to see what server response code is being logged. 302? Then it should be working. 200 - It's processing a standard "OK here's your page " response. As for why it works on a different box, there's a multitude of reasons it could be. 1) Server configuration, 2) CF version, 3) slightly different up-stream application.cfm, ... A code snippet would help too. Angelo Edward Chanter wrote: > Dear All, > > Has anyone had a <cflocation> tag simply stop working in certain situations > and servers? I have and it's bizarre.
