client variables lost
after setting a client variable and passing it to a form page, it vanishes on the following page as if non existent.
all client.vars are declared with cfparam in the application and set after being extracted from the result set after finding the login name.
There's no sign of any data in my client storage database either.

can you show the code you are using
1) where you set them
2) where you try outputting them
cheers.

k, before I post the code: I decided to test this locally instead of on the development server.
All client Vars work locally, but cease on the remote development server.
The issue must be on that CF server.
ever seen this? perhaps the timeout is immediate.
Thanks jimmy.

check in the CF administrator on the remote server under client variables. You might find out from there whats going on.

In that area right now, having the server rebooted.
That machine also tends to "forget" the admin password. I am thinking the problem is related.
Setting a default database for client variables works because? you have to specify the name of the
database in the app.cfm/cfc, so why would it default to a database when it's known that not specifying will store in the registry?
just a thought.

Ok,
so I see where you can now specify where the default is, my bad.
Rebooting didn't help though, it's still swallowing the client vars

hmmm thats weird...do you see anything in the CF logs?

I notice that the server that's not holding the vars, certain cookie variables aren't there.
on the working machine vars:
CFADMIN_LASTPAGE=/cfide/ad
CFAUTHORIZATION_cfadmin=
CFID=
CFTOKEN=
Compaq-HMMD=
JSESSIONID
on the non working machine only the
cfid and cftoken cookie variables appear.
I'm not passing them by code on the working server, must I on the remote or is something turned off in the cfadmin
that i'm not considering?

Hee,
I try to view the logs beyond the first page and the server returns errors about a site Filter being undefined
not that I needed one, but I tried to define that and some similar error happens.

I can see the names of the variables.
I just can't use them, output them or anything
