Hi, At my organization, we've got our first ColdFusion 8 server up and running (on a Solaris/Unix box), but we've run into a strange problem. We chose to test the new server by running one of our internal ColdFusion web applications on it, and per our normal protocol, we set up a sandbox to restrict the datasources and directories that the web application had access to.
Most of the application worked just fine (as expected), but wherever there was an instance where a CFM file called a method from a CFC file located in the same directory via <cfinvoke>, like so: <cfinvoke component="localCFC" method="doFoo"...> ....the application would throw the following error: "access denied (java.io.FilePermission /site/coldfusion/mx/CustomTags read)" The guy who set up the CF8 Server (I personally don't have access to the server) checked the Files/Dirs setting for the sandbox, and it had the following directory permission setting: /site/ColdFusion/mx/- (Read, Execute) ....which SHOULD mean that the site could access any subdirectories of the "mx" directory, such as the "CustomTags" directory. Yet, in order to resolve the error, he had to add the following directory permission setting: /site/ColdFusion/mx/CustomTags/ Once he did that, everything worked fine. So the question he wants answered before adding more sites/applications to the new server is: why didn't the "/mx/-" permission allow read access to the "CustomTags" subdirectory? Any ideas? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Server/message.cfm/messageid:6523 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Server/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.10
