Keep in mind that nothing has changed; but today I started getting this.... I've got all the updates and hot fixes installed... so losing hair as it wont cooperate :)

Any ideas?

Here is the error it gives me:

The system has attempted to use an undefined value, which usually indicates a programming error, either in your code or some system code.

Null Pointers are another name for undefined values.


93 : password="#trim(Arguments.ftpPassword)#"
94 : localfile="#trim(Arguments.fileToFTP)#"
95 : remotefile="#trim(Arguments.ftpRemotePath)##trim(Arguments.ftpRemoteFileName)#"
96 : timeout="5000"
97 : transfermode="binary" />

ColdFusion Version 8.01
Enterprise Edition.

Bradley Moore's Gravatar Dump the arguments scope and see that all the variables have values?

Pablo Varando's Gravatar Yes, all variables are right... any other ideas?

Bradley Moore's Gravatar Double check you have the connection argument in your tag.

Pablo Varando's Gravatar I have tried it both ways...

Single request:

<!--- Now FTP the file --->
      <cfftp action="putfile"
          server="#trim(Arguments.ftpServer)#"
          username="#trim(Arguments.ftpUsername)#"
          passive="no"
          password="#trim(Arguments.ftpPassword)#"
          localfile="#trim(Arguments.fileToFTP)#"
          remotefile="#trim(Arguments.ftpRemotePath)##trim(Arguments.ftpRemoteFileName)#"
          timeout="5000"
          transfermode="binary" />


multi-step:

<cfftp action="open"
          name="objConnect"
          server="#Arguments.ftpServer#"
          username="#Arguments.ftpUsername#"
          passive="no"
          password="#Arguments.ftpPassword#"
          timeout="5000"
          transfermode="binary" />

      

      <cfif cfftp.Succeeded eq "false">
         <cfset fileUploaded = false />
      <cfelse>
         
         <cfftp action="putfile"
             connection="objConnect"
             localfile="#Arguments.fileToFTP#"
             remotefile="#Arguments.ftpRemotePath##Arguments.ftpRemoteFileName#"
             />
         
         <cfftp action="close" connection="objConnect" />
      </cfif>



same error each time.....

Bradley Moore's Gravatar multi-step:
change name="objConnect" to connection="objConnect"

single-step:
add connection="objConnect"

Pablo Varando's Gravatar adding connection seemed to work; not sure what has changed..... hm....

larryRb's Gravatar I've recently got some doubt as far as ColdFusion. Believe me that if ColdFusion allowed us to do what we needed we would have continued using it ( as we already had the code and had servers setup with Sandboxing etc.), and would have written a blog about the value of it, but it doesn't at the moment and Railo does (visit http://rapid4me.com to get better understanding of what I say) . Adobe ColdFusion is an awesome technology and I am nothing but an Advocate having based my business on it for the last 10 years, but at the same time we have to move with the times with regards to deploying a SaaS model and I do believe Railo is the better technology stack for doing that right now, especially for the issues we are trying to solve. Am I not right?
