John, Check to see that you do not have any applications on the server that share the same name - like when you copy code for reuse :) -Original Message- From: John Skrotzki [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 3:51 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Losing Application

Are you using more than one cfapplication tag in your site with a different application name? Is there any logic around your cfapplication tag which could cause it to not be executed, and therefore the page request would be outside of the application? Can you try/catch your access to that

Also, when are these variables set? If your CF service is restarted during the day, your application scope will start over empty until those values are cfset again. ~Brad -Original Message- From: John Skrotzki [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 3:51 PM To: CF-Talk

Thanks for the reply, I have 3 apps called: RAW and RAW_Reps and COW ( customer order website 8-) and define the same app variables in each one - I know I should be using server scope but I designed it yeas ago when I was still green. Changing it over now scares me as there are literlly

John, I get the same thing occasionally. Its rare, but sometimes I get User is undefined in SESSION. It will happen on a user-by-user basis, meaning, the rest of the users are fine. Just one person gets messed up. I have not been able to debug it as it happens so infrequently that I can't narrow

Brad - they are set in the application.cfm of each app - maybe that is the problem? One weird instance was that it lost the variables DURING script execution when send out an email broadcast (opt in) - so for example, script starts loops for say 100 out of 200 fine then dies. Wierd... Also,

Hi John, I am having a possibly related issue in a VPS/Linux setup, although it is using Blue Dragon rather than CF. It seems to not be able to properly recurse up the directory tree to find an Application.cfm file if there is not an Application.cfm file in the same directory as the calling

No I don't. But I am sure it is my coding somewhere as I still don't have a solid grasp on the inner workings of apps and app files. I will try the try / catch idea to see if I can narrow it down. It was more of a minor irrantant as refreshing works but when sending emails it becomes

I think I may have found the problem ( at least logically ) after examining my app code closer. I don't check to see if the appication.datasource is already defined. I just re-define it everytime. So it comes down to a race condition. If another person accesses that app at the exact same
