In case anybody is interested, I finally thought of a workaround. The problem is limited to missing cfm files; only then is the application scope not available to the page. (as a matter of fact, *any* type of error within the missing template handler will throw the "file not found" error... a bug on it's own). Right now, I'm simply reading the cf_template_path and I append part of the value to a cflocation statement. The cflocation basically loads the "page-not-found" page again, but the second time around, it is not invoked as the result of a missing file, thus the application scope is available to the page again and all my includes that rely on app vars work again and I can gracefully process the (404) error. Phew! Thanks again for all your help! /m
BTW, no word from Adobe yet. > We'll look forward to hearing what Adobe has to say on this curious issue (or whether we've simply not thought of a solution). /charlie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mischa Uppelschoten ext 10 Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2006 2:02 PM To: discussion@acfug.org Subject: re[8]: [ACFUG Discuss] Missing template handler does not have access to application scope? Sorry for my late response! (And thanks for checking in Charlie!) Here is the code I added to my page-not-found page: <cfscript> AppObj = createobject("Component", "Application"); AppStartResult = AppObj.OnApplicationStart(); </cfscript> <cfdump var="#AppStartResult#"> The dump returns "true", but a call to any application variable after that throws a "web site you are accessing has experienced an unexpected error". I don't have an onRequestStart method in my application.cfc at all. This is submitted to Adobe as a bug (the free support that comes w/ CF is basically just "up and running" support if I understand correctly, so they coouldn't help me), but no response yet. I think what I will do is just duplicate the variables I need and "manually" set them in the page-not-found page. Thanks again for your help!
