Possible incompatibility with CF8

[atuttle]

User reports this error, when simply trying to run the "api" example on ACF8.

Element _TAFFY.SETTINGS.MIMEEXTENSIONS is undefined in APPLICATION.
The error occurred in \taffy\core\dashboard.cfm: line 41

Setup a CF8 testing environment today, and it works fine for me out of the box. Closing as not reproducable.

This error is happening for me with rc candidate 1.1 (0838b63) against an adobe 9.0.1 installation.

Works fine on localhost running against a local developers copy on windows. the dev server is a linux installation. I'm happy to provide whatever diagnostics I can.

Git bisect shows that the dashboard in the example starts failing here:

f932022 is the first bad commit

Thanks for the report! Can you elaborate on your install a little bit? Is it multi-instance on JRun, or "standard", or even a WAR running on another container like Tomcat? Apache, IIS, or other?

The issue, I believe, is that we're running under a reverse proxy (apache), so that the url (/app/path/to/taffy) is, inside our container, only really /path/to/taffy - the first portion of the URL is handled by the proxy and then dispatched.

I should be able to get you a pull request, but won't mind if you beat me to it. ;)

Interesting, thanks for the details. Since you have an environment to play & test in, I'll let you handle it unless you ask for help.

I created a pull request with a very simplistic fix that allows the demo to run on both my standalone windows JRun 9.0.1, and our JBoss linux installation with the reverse proxy and limited context root.

Thanks Will!
