You can put anything you like in the kola.wir file. I'm not sure how the app or your operating system would cope with a zero-length file, though, but that does not seem to be your problem.

As for setting the filesystemroot variable, you should not need to make a mapping for the wireframe app. This variable is not looking for a mapped location, just a straight-out filesystem path, like c:\www-root\etc\etc. If you have put the wireframe app in a directory called "wireframe", directly under your web-server root, then your filesystemroot should be set to: "#request.app.documentRoot##request.os.delimiter#wireframe">

If you are having trouble using the movies wireframe, then it looks like the various config variables aren't set-up properly.

Check that you have: request.app.cfroot="/wireframe" and request.app.webroot="/wireframe"

Also, could you confirm that your app is in the wireframe dir immediately under your web-root?

If all of that is in order, and you feel like getting to the bottom of the problem, you can drop this code in before line 39 of act_checkdata.cfm: <CFOUTPUT>"#request.app.documentRoot##request.os.delimiter##attributes.wireframedir##request.os.delimiter##attributes.wireframename#.wir"</CFOUTPUT>

Let me know what you see.

Thanks for all of your patience, Lee.
