[thelist] Evolt Site .. Down ?

[Raymond Camden]

2 side notes about this -

1) Never turn on the show directory and path option for errors. As you can
see, the error message tells us the path to the webroot:
/home/evolt/main_html/evolt/Application.cfm. This could be a slight security
risk. Well, when I say never I mean never do it on production servers.

2) If your using Application variables, as evolt is to store a query, be
sure you CFLOCK every access to the variable. In this case, even the CFQUERY
tags should be wrapped in a CFLOCK since you will be writing to the
variable.
