Gyrus, I couldn't reproduce this. I used a simpler test:
<cfif not isDefined("session.verity")>
setting session.verity<br>
<cfset session.verity = 1>
</cfif>
<cfindex action="update"
collection="6A89AE47-4D03-11D3-944600104BF23043_BODY"
key="#ExpandPath('tags')#" type="PATH"
urlpath="http://localhost/downloads/"; extensions=".cfm" recurse="No">
On first run, I see the "setting..." message, but I do not see it again.

> <cfset wwwroot = application.vars.front_wwwroot>
> <cfset allowedFileTypes =
