Hi Thomas, It's a real relief (in a way) to know we are not the only ones experiencing this issue - as at least if it is a recognised issue, macrodobe may fix it at some point (although based on my experiences today even attempting to send a support email to adobe, I wonder if that is a valid assumption)
First time in over six years of using CF that I've had a crash that I haven't been able to ascertain the cause... been tearing my hair out... Thanks for your suggestions with regards to SQL connections - I will look into these and see if any are relevant in our hosting environment. Have other people just been having a problem with CF 7? or has it also been an issue in CF 6.1? Also, has anyone experiencing this problem found any benefit from installing the 7.0.2 updater? - I have scheduled downtime for midngiht tonight to install the updater... not that I could see anything in the release notes that made me hopeful that this would make any difference... Cheers Dan.
