Re: Chat app (using CF websockets) has stopped working after upgrading to CF11
Bryon, My custom channel listener does extend 'CFIDE.websocket.ChannelListener', but if CFIDE's Channel Listener is inaccessible, I get the error that my custom ChannelListener is not a valid ChannelListener handler. So locking down of CFIDE is ruled out. Thanks On Wed, Jan 7, 2015 at 8:45 AM, Parul Bali parul.sarasw...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Bryon, I use my own custom channel listener CFC.

Re: Chat app (using CF websockets) has stopped working after upgrading to CF11
Thanks Russ, we do follow these practices on Production, but right now am testing locally. So was just ruling that out as the issue that might be breaking my Websockets' application which suddenly stopped working after upgrading to CF11. So was wondering if anyone's faced such Websocket issues after upgrading to CF11. Any pointers or troubleshooting tips would be appreciated.

Re: Chat app (using CF websockets) has stopped working after upgrading to CF11
No worries Russ. Yes, I'm able to access 'CFIDE.websocket.ChannelListener' directly using the cfc browser. Also, it seems that the cfwebsocket tag isn't creating the javascript websocket object at all, because when i try calling the startup functions directly thru the console, i get the error that the websocket object is not defined. This was never an issue before upgrading to CF11.
