  • Dynamically Enabling / Disabling Session Management In Lucee CFML 5.3.8.201

    Posted on Jun 4, 2025 at 10:46 PM

    I know this isn't the best place for it, but just as a follow up in case anyone comes here from a web search with a similar issue. What I encountered appears to be a regression of some sort related to a previous bug that CF had regarding ORM stuff. It's not directly related to session manag... read more »

I believe in love. I believe in compassion. I believe in human rights. I believe that we can afford to give more of these gifts to the world around us because it costs us nothing to be decent and kind and understanding. And, I want you to know that when you land on this site, you are accepted for who you are, no matter how you identify, what truths you live, or whatever kind of goofy shit makes you feel alive! Rock on with your bad self!
