[thelist] <cferror> and NT/Unix differences

We have a web-app that presents a customized error page using cferror with a
type="Exception". On development and QA (which are NT boxes running CF 4.5.1
with SP2), this works fine. On production (which is an NT box running CF 4.5.1
with no CF service packs), the error page isn't being processed.

After doing some testing, it appears that, on the Unix box, when the application
 encounters an error, it's like it ignores everything that came before it (such
as the cferror
tag), so all that is displayed is the Cold Fusion error message (in the default
format).

We've tested this on an NT box running 4.5.1 with no CF service packs and it
works fine. So, I'm thinking it has to do with Unix (the only other Unix box we
have access
to is an old one which has 4.0 on it [meaning we can use a cferror
type="Exception"]).

Has anyone encountered anything similar to this?

Scott
