Wow, I'm not sure where to start. I guess I'll start by saying the whole "cf.mapping.to.ajax" string is NOT what you should actually be typing into your code unless you have an "ajax" folder in a "to" folder in a "mapping" folder in a "cf" folder in your webroot. (not likely)
When the AjaxCFC documentation said that, they intended for you to replace the text "cf.mapping.to.ajax" with the actual honest-go-goodness path on your specific server. The path to a CFC is simply a period delimited list of directories starting in your web root, a mapping, or a custom tag path. If the ajax.cfc file is in the same directory as the CFC's that are extending it, then you don't need the dot delimited path. If the ajax.cfc file is anywhere else, you need to create the period delimited path to the file based on WHERE IT IS ON YOUR SERVER. From your posts, I'm not sure where you have the ajax.cfc file, but if it was off the web root in a folder called geeILikeIceCream then you would do this in your webservice: <cfcomponent name="myMagicalAjaxWebService" extends="geeILikeIceCream.ajax"> As far as your permission denied error, I don't think that has anything to do with your cfm files, what your objects do, the flow of your application, or the weather outside. Like I said in my initial reply, you need to do two things: 1) Confirm the windows user your ColdFusion service is running as 2) Grant Read rights for that user to the web-inf directory that was referenced by the error message. Until you do that, it is mostly a waste of time to talk about how the app works. If you are saying that some of your ajax calls work, but others produce that permission error, then I don't know what to tell you without knowing more information. If you can't create an instance of your component and call a method with cfinvoke (which is what AjaxCFC does) without getting that permissions denied on component.cfc then you definitely need to fix permissions. I have a suspicion that there are some other errors at play, but we will need more info than knowing that your server "barked" at you to help. Have you looked into AjaxCFC's logging feature to catch what errors are happening on the server side. Also, use Fiddler or FireBug to get the actual HTTP request of your Ajax calls and run them by themselves in a new browser window. If a bunch of Javasciprt is output it is probably working, otherwise you should see the error. Good Look. ~Brad -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: ajaxCFC Access Denied From: David Torres <djt...@yahoo.com> Date: Wed, June 17, 2009 4:15 pm To: cf-talk <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> OK, something weird is happing here. I did not reply to your question earlier because things seemed to start working. I made some changes to some of my logic in one my CFC and CFC file, and now that page is giving me the same error again. To answer your questions: Are you using shared hosting? Yes A VPS? No Do you have access to the CF administrator web interface? Yes Are you still getting your "Access deniedâ¦â? Yes Do you have a folder called "components" in your web root? Yes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
