ColdBox and ColdFusion 8 Interesting bug.


ColdBox and ColdFusion 8 Interesting bug.

I have found an interesting bug on ColdFusion 8 and the multi-threaded capabilities of ColdBox. This is only to specific coldbox installation setups:

1) Virtual Folder in IIS

2) Apache Alias

If you use an alias or a virtual folder for installing coldbox, you will run into errors that the spawned threads will not be able to actually find the instantiation paths. Example:

coldbox.system.beans.requestContext

It seems that the coldfusion 8 spawned thread cannot find or use the virtual aliases or apache aliases.

So if I cannot find a solution, which seems like I won't be able to. Then I will remove the installation type of aliases and virtual directories for colfusion 8 and bluedragon 7.

It seems that the installation procedures will have to remain as physical folders or coldfusion mappings only.

Please test this and let me know your results.

UPDATE:

I have made this work by using a combination of a coldfusion mapping and the virtual folder.

Is this related to the error I am receiving on BlueDragon 7:

Expression Error Detail Problem occurred while parsing: coldbox.plugins.MTlogger.logErrorWithBean-F58B9C85-C8A9-1565-95ABA9CA1CC64A6E Extended Info Encountered "ABA9CA1CC64A6E".
