I love using Expand Path. Especially with shared hosting. I used to
introduce errors into code on purpose the get the path until I
discovered this nice tag.

You could use something like #expandpath('..')#/tempUploads to do that.
expandpath() can be *very* useful sometimes. :-)

ExpandPath("../tempUploads") is what you're looking for.

I have used UNC paths. Have you tried a trailing "\" in your path? I
remember that is/was required but not sure if in CFFILE paths.

If you're still running CFMX under the System account (assuming CFMX on
Win), then it won't have access to foreign folders at all.
\D:\ or \D$\?
You need to test this against \\localhost\{drive}$\folder or change the

OK, I created a folder (\\swintranet1\D:\IntranetData) with full privs
for SYSTEM, Users, etc.
If I upload Word,
String index out of range: -5

What about adding it as a mapped network drive to the server and
accessing it via e:\ or something similar?

OK, one last followup...
I just tested it using UNC to hit a file located on the same machine I've
got CF Dev edition running on... and it worked. This is MX 7. So we at least
know that MX 7 can do it if it has the right privs.
So I'm guessing what you're experiencing is privs... what you could
I can UNC directly from the Run... command to the text file in question, but
CFFILE can't find it. The only thing I can think of to test this is using a
privileged account (like a Domain Admin) that might give you higher privs to
access remote files... but that's Really Not a Good Idea.
Sorry d
Daniel,
I don't think CFFILE supports UNC paths... permissions notwithstanding. I
think it expects a drive/directory on Windows.
I'll test a lil more, but I'm thinking it's not going to work.

did you give the destination folder "write" privileges?

You would need to know the "physical" location of the virtual web server
your site is located at. They would need to advise you of this.
Consider also that many CF hosts disable the use CFFILE in the administrator
