Missing Component Error Even Though Component Exists

[Marc Rohrer]

We are getting occasional missing component errors even though the component does exist.

The error is "Could not find the ColdFusion component or interface xxx.xxx.xxx." And the detail is "Ensure that the name is correct and that the component or interface exists."

Some times the error will go away with a page refresh, sometimes it won't. We have boosted memory significantly for the JVM to 10GB, which has eliminated most, but still get some.

The concern is that we will get these errors again as we continue to migrate a very large app to Mach II. Does anyone know why these errors might be occurring and how to eliminate them?

Thanks,

Marc

Are you able to reproduce the error on your local dev environment or do you only see it sometimes in production?

We're not in PROD yet. We have this on DEV. We are able to reproduce the error on our sandbox server too.

Do you have "save class files" turned on in the cf admin? What version of CF are you using?

Save class files is turned off, since it is a DEV environment. We're on CF 10 with the latest updates.

Do you have the component cache turned on in the CF admin? Do you have any mapping defined that point to the same directory?

Component cache is turned on. I did find a Mach II mapping to a different app in the CF admin. I deleted that. The other mappings are defined in the Application.cfc. After deleting the Mach II mapping, it seemed that the problem went away. But during testing, it showed back up. I've been looking at the error more and it seems to be happening when we call the init() from the gateway.cfc for the first time. Such as we have a function on the gateway.cfc and in there we might have

<cfset var non_tissue_reagent = createObject("component", "ilsr.model.biomaterial.nonTissueReagent.NonTissueReagent").init() />

or

<cfset lcm_cap = createObject("component", "ilsr.model.biomaterial.lcmCap.LcmCap").init(lcm_cap_id = cap_id) />

Going to continue looking at this possibility, but if you have an idea, please let me know.

Thanks,

Marc

I'm without any more suggestions. It's not really a Mach-II issue as it happens with apps with no frameworks as well. Do you have the option in the admin to "Cache web server paths" turned on?  This features has always been error prone.

Also, have deleted all the .class files that CF generated? Cleared both caches (template and component)? And restarted the CF service? Things have been known to get stuck in Adobe CF's caching junk.

I would try turning the component cache off as well. I have seen it get confused with mappings after several requests under ACF 9.0.x. I am pretty sure this isn't a Mach II issue but rather a CF one.

I agree -- we run everything under OpenBD and see none of this craziness.

I'm a noob of Mach II myself but a similar error has recently plagued me. There are two comments.

One: try putting your component calls in a simple test file in your web root. You'll either get no error or a more informative one. It sidesteps machii and just tests your cf.

The other is just how cryptic these can be. Mine was a cd error but it was really caused by a change in the way a dependent Java package was called from within the Java VM folder (Amazonws in this case) Switching to an older version of the vm got it working. Fwiw.

[Marc Rohrer]

I did all the things you suggested, but continued to get errors. I finally found the issue, but unsure why it is happening. It was the mappings being set in the Application.cfc. When I added the mappings through CF Admin, the errors went away. Right now, not sure why, so I will need to troubleshoot that. But here is some information in case you see something I'm doing drastically wrong. Remember, this does work with sparatic errors for missing components, which do go away we page refresh.

The application directory structure

ilsr

config

controllers

model

lib

machII

public

 views

Application.cfc

index.cfm

mach-ii.cfc

Then on the Application.cfc I have the following mappings:

<cfset this.mappings["/ilsr"] = expandPath("../ilsr")>

<cfset this.mappings["/machII"] = expandPath("../lib/machII")>

If you need additional information, let me know.

Thanks,

Marc

Thanks for the update. Definitely sounds like something is broken with
Adobe CF10 and setting mappings at the Application.cfc level. Somehow
I'm not surprised...
