I just had an issue with my host the other day that sounds similar. I was
trying to login to my CMS, and the action page for the login form blew up.
It kept telling me that "form.username" doesn't exist.

When I tried to dump the form scope it was empty...bizarre. It "fixed
itself" in a few hours, but I never did find out the cause.

Subject: File upload suddenly stops working


All:

 

A former client just contacted me asking for help.  Apparently they are no
longer able to upload files to their website via HTML forms.  The code was
written 6 (?) years ago on CF5/IIS/Win2000 using CFFILE.  It used to work
(for 5+ years) but all of a sudden does not.  They are now getting the
following error message whenever they try to upload a file:

 

The form field specified in the CFFILE tag (IMAGEFILEPATH) does not contain
an uploaded file. Please be sure that you

have specified the correct form field name.

 

Checking the last-modified date of the files in question, the code hasn't
changed in years.  The HTML form is using ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" and
the debug data shows a value of "C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\ACF4CAB.tmp" for
FORM.ImageFilePath (so it would appear something is being uploaded).  In
talking with the hosting company, they apparently moved the site about 1/2 a
year ago from a Win2000 server to a Win2003 server but didn't change
anything else.  The code still works perfectly well in my test environments.

 

Does anyone have any clues as to what could be causing this problem?

 

TIA
