RE: IIS Problem - HELP!
Chris, You were right! (You've got to love it when someone says that.) The client has their 'staging' server - which is actually a single site they test multiple sites on in subdirectories. Whereas their live environment, has the site sitting in it's own directory. Just as you described. Thus, making it impossible to use / root level referencing because your testing on one server that is configured differently than the live server. The client had original informed us their staging enviroment was configured the same as their live enviroment. And this being an internal server, we weren't able to confirm anything. I'm going to work with my Project Manager and the client on possible resolutions. Thanks for all of your help!

Re: CFMAIL IMAIL
Kelly, We run Imail here also and have had similar problems. This error occurred for us in two different cases. Case 1 - CFMail is not connecting the the mail server. Check your firewall settings between your Webserver and mail server and make sure the proper ports are open Case 2 - Sending of non-local mail refused by Imail - in other words, it's not bouncing mail messages that do not belong to a local account. (either the FROM or TO field in the CFmail tag). This setting can be changed to allow non-local mail to be sent - but is not recommended. In order to prevent any of these problems from occurring we enabled SMTP on our WebServer (be sure to only allow it to send local messages orginating from the webserver itself). On another note, there is tool I wrote for sysadmins to use in troubleshooting CFMail problems and dealing with undeliverable message - check it out at - http://devex.allaire.com/developer/gallery/info.cfm?ID=CED80E95-7676-11D5-83F800508B94F380method=Full Hope this helps, - Paul -- Original Message -- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2001 12:59:22 -0700 Has anyone ever experienced this error in the mail log file: Error,TID=156,12/26/01,12:46:56,Failed to send the spooled mail file, d:\cfusion\MAIL\spool\18A6.cfmail.

Undelivered Mail Viewer for CF 4.5 Beta 1A
Hi Guys, I just released the Beta version of my Undelivered Mail Viewer to the Allaire Gallery. Download it, try it out, and give me some constructive feedback. This application allows systems administrators the ability to see and manipulate mail files that CF 4.5 Server failed to send to the SMTP server. You have the ability to View, Delete, Archive, and Respool files. In addition to these options, you can search and filter messages by To:, From:, and Subject Line. It is a very useful sys admin tool. I'm working on a version for CF 5.0, but the current version only works under CF 4.5.

Re: Note passing system?
Sounds like you want a project management tool. We have an internal system here we use to parse out work. Basically the client/project manager submits an item to a form and it appears on the necessary persons desktop based on who they select. They see the item, do the work, mark their time, and reply via the form. It's a great project management tool and it keeps track of correspondence. Building a system like your describing isn't too difficult, it's just time consuming. We have looked into outside utilities to do this, but we've found them lacking. As a development shop we have found that when we need some additional functionality we build it on. The current system we have now has grown out of several developers efforts in the past two years to incompass project managment, billing, contacts, work requests, logging, and a host of other things. A third party too may save you time in the short run, but in the long run, it'll probably lacks the additional functionality you want. I recommend buiding your own system, keeping in mind you want to be able to add additionally functionality in the future. - Paul - Original Message - From: "Rey Bango" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "CF-Talk" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 16, 2001 1:07 PM Subject: Note passing system? Anyone know of a good CF-based note/messaging system? I'm not talking about an email server but more of a db driven messaging software that will allow me to post a message to a specific suer. When that user comes in, they can check for their own messages and reply accordingly. Again, its not an email system per se. Thanks, Rey Bango...

Re: White space
Recently I debugged a site search application that was crashing IE 5 when the results set returned. This search worked in Netscape but took a long time for the browser to render the page, even though the page did not exceed 150-200k. Looking at the generated source code I found that there were large blocks of white space. When I cleaned up the code to cut down on the white space using CFSILENT around CF Code, IE stopped crashing and the rendering time in netscrape noticeably improved. my two cents - Paul ~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
