I'm trying to debug a config issue with CrystalTech as I upgrade a client from CF7 to CF9 (both of them are shared hosting, not VPS). Testing yesterday, I got an error about not having permission to read a tag from some path that was some other customer's site on the same machine. I emailed support and the end result was them saying that custom tag paths are shared amongst all people on the same machine and that my custom tag had the same name as another user's on the same machine and that was the problem. I would need to change the name of my custom tag to resolve the conflict. Why does this not show up on my client's CF7 shared hosting? Lucky I guess: because no one else on that particular machine has a conflicting tag.
I'm not sure if I should be shocked or not. I thought even in a shared hosting environment CF must give hosting providers some way to sandbox these things. Is this a CrystalTech issue or will this be the case for any shared CF hosting provider? I have no issue changing the name of the tag. It's tedious but not hard. Also: now that my client is moving up from CF7, will the new feature in CF8/9 that allows per-application mappings and tag paths resolve this? It would need to replace the global settings rather than just augment them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:333901 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
