Please help! I am having problems accessing the FarCry Admin login
page on a new installation. The interesting part is that I am able to
pull up the site and log in from the server itself (via RDP), but when
I try to access from another machine the login page never loads... it
just hangs until eventually the browser times out or CF crashes (I've
tried in both FireFox and IE7)... I also have to restart CF every time
I try to access the page because it becomes unresponsive (running at
100% as if it were in an infinite loop.)

I haven't been able to get any errors from CF or IIS.

Here is my setup:

Windows 2000, IIS 5
ColdFusion 7.02
MySQL 4.1
FarCry 3.02? (I used the 3.02 install and ran the 3.01 update, but
there doesn't seem to be an update for 3.02)

I have quadruple-checked my mappings... I've set up FarCry
successfully before, so I'm aware of the process.

Also, I've tried debugging this in an attempt to pinpoint exactly
where the problem is coming from... In the /farcry_core/admin/
application.cfm template, line 99: <cfset
application.factory.owebtop=createobject("component",
"#application.packagepath#.farcry.webtop").init()>
If I set a cfabort right above this line, the page will execute
without issue. If I cfabort right after... it fails.

Thanks,
-Nick

Have you done:
index.cfm?updateapp=1

I think restarting CF also helps this problem.

Thank you for the response...

Yes, I have updated the app scope and restarted both the server and CF
many times. (I am forced to restart CF everytime I try to access
farcry since it eventually locks up as in an infinite loop)

If you have debugging with tree view turned on, the code that builds
the webtop will basically nuke your server. Classic debug mode is
fine, its just the way the tree view reports debug and the recursive
nature of the code building the webtop that nails the debug service.
Hopefully they will fix this in the next version of CF.
