Error when cflocation is ran within onRequestStart
Posted by David in ColdFusion on April 24, 2007
There is some code in one of the projects I am working on that checks if a user is logged in within the onRequestStart application function. If the user is not logged in, the code redirects them to the login page using a cflocation. Although there is no visual error, i kept getting error emails thru my onError function stating there was a coldfusion.runtime.AbortException error happening:
An exception occurred when invoking a event handler method from Application.cfc The method name is: onRequestStart.
Reading various posts on this error on the web, I found that the this problem is well known and found some work-arounds. Here is one of them...
Within your onError function you can filter out the AbortException errors by doing this:
<cffunction name="onError" returntype="void">
<cfargument name="exception" required="true">
<cfargument name="eventname" type="string" required="true">
<cfswitch expression="#arguments.exception.rootcause.type#">
<cfcase value="coldfusion.runtime.AbortException">
<!--- do nothing --->
<cfreturn />
</cfcase>
<cfdefaultcase>
<!--- error handling code here --->
<cfdump var="#exception#" label="Exception">
</cfdefaultcase>
</cfswitch>
</cffunction>
That did the trick!
