Your registry can only grow to an alotted size. have the registry grow beyond this size (don't what it is off the top of my head, anyone know?) can cause corruption and thus chicken-choke NT. with that in mind, the first thing i always do is create a datasource exclusivly for client variable storage and change the setting in CF Admin ASAP.
if you don't think that it is the ie6 problem (and could very not be that), then can you possibly post you directory structure. if you want i can work with you on this problem off list. just email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Anthony Petruzzi Webmaster 954-321-4703 http://www.sheriff.org -----Original Message----- From: Darren Adams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 10:08 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: application.cfm I am sure you are correct but can you explain why it might bring my system down to it's knees ? Also, it cant be the ie6 error if there are 2 machines on ie5.5 which suffer the same problems, the machine name does not use any illegal charactors (e.g. uk1web2). It also works when you run programmes in the subdirectory display/ (e.g. display/introduction.cfm). The only errors that occur are with the csupport/ child directory of the root. -Daz -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 April 2002 15:00 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: application.cfm HOLD ON! do not use the registry to store your client variable information. use a data source and change it RIGHT NOW. you will bring the machine to its knees one day doing that. on a suddle note. client variables still use cookies to track the user. no matter what you have select as your client storage. now i could be wrong about it assigning cookies, i think it only does it if you check "assign client cookies". i think if you don't check that it tries to track the user by ip or some other way. can anyone confirm this? in any case, i think the ie6 cookie problem is what is killing him. try to access through that ip, if that works, there's your problem.

However I am not using cookies, I'm using the registry to store the client variables. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 April 2002 14:48 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: application.cfm just a shot in the dark, but this might be the same problem i had. is he using ie6? if so make sure that the domain name of the machine he is trying to connect to doesn't have an "illegal" characters in it, like an "_". see if by accessing the machine from an ip if his client variables come up: instead of http://test_svr use http://10.1.1.5 client variables need cookies to work and if it is the problem i'm thinking of, ie isn't letting the cookies be assigned.
