Coldfusion error?

August 19, 2005 1:56 PM

On my home computer I'm getting a coldfusion error when trying to access metafilter, on both firefox and IE (win98se, by the way). I've deleted cookies and cache and still no go. Please hope me!

If this is the error, search for a file named 'HOSTS' in the Windows folder and remove the metafilter entries.

What Gyan said. I had the same problem a few days ago, and that fixed it.

thanks gyan, that's probably it. I'll take a look when I get home.

Home now, and indeed, that was the problem. My thanks again, gyan.

Awesome! I've been having this problem at work, but ignoring it because it actually meant that I would get work done. Now it's back to procrastination city!
