Hi,
We have a site (in ColdFusion https://astral.mediaexpert.thewg.com/ ) in Polish language and we are using ColdBox Cache(Ver 2.6.1). But below error is coming… (Only in IE 8/9/10 But in Chrome it is running fine)–
COLDBOX.CACHE.REAP_DC249F7BB5F4BD679F60DB04E4718278: The reap method was not found. Either there are no methods with the specified method name and argument types or the reap method is overloaded with argument types that ColdFusion cannot decipher reliably. ColdFusion found 0 methods that match the provided arguments. If this is a Java object and you verified that the method exists, use the javacast function to reduce ambiguity.
Please note that above error is coming in server’s log file. And due this site is being hanged!!
To clarify, are you using the Coldbox framework, or just CacheBox standalone? Assuming 2.6.1 is a ColdBox version, that is very old and unsupported. The latest version of ColdBox is 4.1. Caching has been broken out into its own named library called CacheBox (this was done years ago in version 3.0 of Coldbox) and it has many updates to it.
I’ve really no idea what is causing your error and I’m not even familiar with how the code worked 8 years ago. I would need to see a stack trace to even guess.
BTW, I can load the site fine in IE. I can’t imagine how the browser would make any difference unless you had some special code that only ran based of the cgi user agent.
Hi Luis,
Thanks for your kind reply!!
Please note that we are using ColdBox.Cache Version 2.6.1. We know that this is very old version but can u plz suggest which version will be suitable in this scenario?
Hi Brad!!
Thanks for you kind reply!!
I missed to metion one things that ColdBox is being used to manage Cache (Version 2.6.1) in an application. In this application dailly reports are generated. But due to some problem Cache could not be clear from server and server being hanged (in this case above site astral.mediaexpert.thewg… not running). When we checked from server log then found that ColdBox.Cache.REAP() method could not be found. And everytime it search for this method and site become hanged.
So, Is it fine to use new version of ColdBox or there are any other solution?
Kapil, Luis asked what version your ColdFusion server is. Examples would be Adobe ColdFusion 9 or 10. I presume the reason he asked is because there were known bugs with older versions of coldfusion where methods inherited from super classes would disappear on a server under load. I believe we put in a workaround in our code in later versions of ColdBox.
You need to upgrade so that you are on a current and supported version of the ColdFusion server as well as a current and supported version of the ColdBox framework. This will most likely fix your errors and also comes with many other benefits such as security fixes and performance enhancements.
Thanks Brad!!
Can you please let me know that what procedur should be followed during upgradation of coldbox? If there are already old version of coldbox is available then whether it need to uninstall and then install new version or what proces should be apply??
Can you please send me all required step for upgradation ??
