Morning everyone,
We've got a strange error which keeps appearing in our logs every day (usually
2-3 but they're increasing) which looks like this:
13-Mar-2008 12:13 Error 0
Element ROOT is undefined in APPLICATION. The specific sequence of files
included or processed is: C:\..\display\disp_nopage.cfm, line: 23
This is coming from our global error-handling page. Note that the "Application
Name" column is blank so it doesn't look like it's being assigned to one. If i
try and access this page myself or force an error it appears fine and the
debugger is showing that the page is assign to the main application.
As you can see from the address the file sits in a directory called "display".
There is no application.cfm file in this directory so I would expect it to drop
to the next level and get the application details from there. This would be the
root which is where the main application.cfm is sitting.
I'm suspecting that this might be a Web Crawler (Yahoo Slurp! appears a lot in
the IIS logs) which is testing the error pages but what puzzles me is why there
isn't an application being assigned to it. Does anybody have any ideas? Would
something as simple as a....
<cfif not isDefined('application.applicationName')>
<cfapplication name="myMainApplication">
</cfif>
..... fix the problem?
Your help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
James
