I sometimes get
Could not find the ColdFusion Component or Interface Answer.
and simply doing a refresh fixes the problem.
This is not case where the program is being refreshed from ftp while I try to browse from it: no development is being done. But every once in a while I’ll get it while trying to do a createobject.
Q: Is there a best practice for sleeping and trying again if instantiating a component fails?
Phillip, any chance this is on cf 9.0.1, and you’re using the “import” keyword?
The reason I ask is that I’ve seen behavior — and logged a bug report on it — where if I have two different object creations on the same page (or in another CFC… doesn’t matter), both from the same package, and I’m not using the fully qualified CFC name but instead am using import, then the first createObject() will succeed and the second will fail with the “could not find … ” error.
I wonder if something like that could be at work here.
