tracker issue : CF-4158130

Duplicate ID:	CF-4155785

Problem Description:

GetApplicationMetaData() is supposed to return a struct containing metadata properties of the current application, but sometimes it returns data from a different application. When this happens, the properties such as name and sessionManagement, etc. are incorrect.


Steps to Reproduce:

Run this code multiple times and look for odd behavior. The behavior is not consistent and I have not been able to determine exactly what condition(s) cause it to return data from the wrong application, but it seems to happen more frequently right after I update the .cfm file or when I first access the page (so maybe it has something to do with when CF compiles the code into Java bytecode or initializes the application, etc.)

<cfapplication name="sessiontest" sessionmanagement="true" />

<cfscript>
	public Boolean function isPersistentDataEnabled() {
		if (ListFirst(server.coldfusion.productversion,",") GTE 10) {
			return getApplicationMetaData().sessionManagement; // CF10 compatible
		} else {
			return application.getApplicationSettings().sessionManagement;
		}
	}

</cfscript>

<cfoutput>
	<cfset Session.test = "Session exists">

	<cfdump var="#Application#">
	#isPersistentDataEnabled()#
	<cfdump var="#getApplicationMetaData()#">
	<cfdump var="#Session#">
</cfoutput>


Actual Result:

getApplicationMetaData().name = "PortlandOnline"
getApplicationMetaData().sessionManagement = "NO"

(See attached screenshot)


Expected Result:

getApplicationMetaData().name = "sessiontest"
getApplicationMetaData().sessionManagement = "YES"

(See attached screenshot)


Any Workarounds:

Unknown.

The sessiontest.cfm file I used for this test is located in our IISRoot\PortlandOregon directory, which also contains an application.cfm that defines a "PortlandOregon" application. The "PortlandOnline" application is defined in IISRoot\PortlandOnline\application.cfm. The ColdFusion administrator has a mapping that maps "/" to "IISRoot/PortlandOnline". So for whatever reason, GetApplicationMetaData() in sessiontest.cfm sometimes doesn't return data for the sessiontest application, or even the PortlandOregon application, but is instead returning data for the PortlandOnline application.
