if you must use a URL then use <CFHTTP...>. The content of the file will be
in cfhttp.filecontent after the call.

Subject: Urgent: Need help with a CFFILE error
Hello,
I am uploading an application which was built by the previous team and now I
have to resolve some issues...
Here is the page:
http://webapps1.hud.gov/pih/pha/plans/approved/approved_plans.cfm
When there, select a state from the drop down menu and then it takes you to:
http://webapps1.hud.gov/pih/pha/plans/approved/view_approved_plans.cfm
Here is the segment of code from view_approved_plans.cfm:
<cfset CURRENTDIRECTORY = #GETDIRECTORYFROMPATH(GETTEMPLATEPATH())#>
<cfoutput>
<!--
FILE="http://www2.hud.gov/pih/pha/plans/approved/#fiscalyear#/#statecode#_#f
iscalyear#.txt" -->
<cfif #statecode# NEQ "0">
<cffile action="Read"
file="http://www.hud.gov/offices/pih/pha/approved/#fiscalyear#/#statecode#_#
fiscalyear#.txt"
variable="phacodeoff">
<cfset codeofflist=ListToArray(phacodeoff,";")>
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
And here is the error I am getting:
Error Diagnostic Information
Error processing CFFILE
Error attempting to read
'http://www.hud.gov/offices/pih/pha/approved/02/al_02.txt.' No such file or
directory (error 2)
The error occurred while processing an element with a general identifier of
(CFFILE), occupying document position (449:11) to (451:25).
Date/Time: Thu Sep 19 17:41:05 2002
Browser: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 95; YComp 5.0.0.0)
Remote Address: 10.200.36.101
HTTP Referrer:
http://webapps1.hud.gov/pih/pha/plans/approved/approved_plans.cfm
Now, I have no clue why is there a dot in the end of the file name which is
being read:
'http://www.hud.gov/offices/pih/pha/approved/02/al_02.txt.'
If you go to http://www.hud.gov/offices/pih/pha/approved/02/al_02.txt you
will see that the file is there.
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Mitko
PS. I think the app server is ColdFusion 5 on Netscape Enterprise Server.
