And if that doesn't seem to work, here's another. It's a stretch, but it just does not make sense that a CFMAIL would do nothing at all (not generate a file in the spool). When you say you did other snippets, did you do them in this very same template? I mean the exact one, in the same place, on the same server. If you did, then it's a stumper, unless Mischa's suggestion helps. But if you did them in another page, I would recommend you confirm for sure that the changes you make in this template are really taking.
For instance, if you add some output to the page, or do a CFLOG on it, does that happen? If not, then I'd argue that your changes are not being picked up at all. How could that happen? Well, you could have "trusted cache" enabled, in which no source changes are picked up. You could also be doing this by way of a CFC instance that's loaded in memory, so changes to the source file aren't picked up then, either. Finally, there's an even more unusual (but occasionally possible) situation where source file changes aren't picked up because the class file (underlying the CF page) is newer than the source file date. This happens more often when you push code from one machine to another, and the source file has been retrieved from a source control system and has an older date. I blogged on that happening back in the CF 6 days (http://cfmxplus.blogspot.com/2002/11/alert-when-cf-will-fail-to-auto.html), but have been meaning to test if it was resolved so as to no longer happen. Let us know if you confirm that changes to the source are indeed picking up, and if any of M's suggestions help. /charlie From: ad...@acfug.org [mailto:ad...@acfug.org] On Behalf Of Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10 Sent: Tuesday, March 03, 2009 2:52 PM To: Web Site Subject: re: [ACFUG Discuss] cfmail issue At the risk of stating the obvious, here is what I would do: 1. Dump the values for your vars and hardcode them in a CFMAIL statement with a very basic subject and body 2. If that looks good but still fails to send, another troubleshooting step is to use telnet from your CF server and send an email. http://www.wikihow.com/Send-Email-Using-Telnet This should reveal quick enough whether the mail server is the piece that is tripping you up... /m : Hello all, : : I am having an issue with the <cfmail> tag.
