pf » Using UUID's for CFTOKEN and Database client storage

Just a heads up if your using UUID's for CFTOKEN values with database client storage when upgrading to CFMX, be sure to change the size of the cfid field in the CDATA and CGLOBAL tables. The cfid field stores both the cfid and cftoken value as follows cfid:cftoken. The cfid is usually around 7 characters, and the cftoken when using a UUID is a 35 character UUID plus a 17 character prefix. Just to be safe I changed the size to 64 characters, and changed it to a varchar type.

Below is the error message generated:

Reason of failure "[Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]String or
