More typos…
Pg. 12-13 when talking about adding XFA tag and variable, you state to make changes to the dsp_hello.cfm twice but it should be referencing dsp_welcome.cfm each time. No changes are made to the dsp_hello.cfm for this tutorial to work.

Let me clarify the previous post…after the refresh I then see what I’m supposed to see in the window but I STILL get the exception errors as before. It’s just that first time that I get a timeout on CFLOOP tag.

Will also point out typo on pg. 9 Summary item #1 the file should be dsp_welcome.cfm, not dsp_hello.cfm.

Great tutorial by the way! Thanks John!!

Why do I get exceptions the first time I run a lesson in my Firefox web browser in CFMX 6.1? Here they are:

Exceptions

17:23:34.034 – Application Exception – in /webdev/latticesemi/web/bruce/fb4/LearnFB/lesson2/fusebox4.loader.cfmx.cfm : line 97

The application root directory has changed.

17:23:37.037 – MissingInclude Exception – in /webdev/latticesemi/web/bruce/fb4/LearnFB/lesson2/fusebox4.runtime.cfmx.cfm : line 170

The request has exceeded the allowable time limit Tag: CFLOOP

I refresh the same page and poof!… it works fine. Is this due to the first time runtime compile CFMX does into Java?

What happened to the accompanying PDFs and zip files?

yeah, if your in development mode you might run into a problem (try a 4 way frameset each calling a fuseaction – it usually causes an error) but in production mode application.fusebox is only ever created on the first request (or when the application is reloaded/refreshed). I’ve not run into a problem using this method myself – especially as nothing ever programmaically changes the value of fuseactionvariable at run time.

This may have been mentioned later (I’m just starting reading lesson 3), but you’re using #application.fusebox.fuseactionVariable# for the fuseaction label, but it’s in the application scope. Surely this needs to be locked.

You’ve not done this in any of the pages I’ve seen. is there a reason for this – apologies if you say why later.

Cheers,

At the bottom of page 12 you say…

Now that we’ve set the value of our XFA we need to use the XFA, so return
back to dsp_hello.cfm and change it to look like;

This should be dsp_welcome, not dsp_hello
