We get this message repeatedly in our Coldfusion application log, and are wondering if it is something we should look into more or ignore. I've googled but I can't seem to find anyone reporting this same blank-ish error.

'' The specific sequence of files included or processed is: ''''

That's it! No file name, no error listed. It happened 60 times in the last 2 weeks, and has been going on for as long as we can remember. We've looked at the times / dates and there doesn't seem to be any clear pattern. No rhyme or reason to when this error occurs.

Does anyone have any idea what this message could mean? Is it a concern or just something to ignore in the logs?

Edited to add requested info

Version is Coldfusion 10 Windows Server 2008 Not sure of JVM but I'll ask our IT people

Below are a couple of times it happened with the surrounding errors... (file paths edited out)

    What version of ColdFusion are you running? What operating system are you running it on? What JVM version are you running? These may all be pertinent bits of information. Can you please include an actual excerpt of your application.log as well. Not the whole file but at least a few lines. That message is typically preceeded or followed with more information. – Miguel-F Jul 08 '14 at 14:18
  • Look at your http log and see what pages were running at about that time. – Dan Bracuk Jul 08 '14 at 15:37
  • I'm not seeing anything unusual in the http log at the same time these messages occur, just things like HTTP request completed around the same time but never the exact same time and never the exact same message so no pattern that I can see there. – vivasuzi Jul 08 '14 at 16:00
  • Anything in the exception.log? – Leigh Jul 08 '14 at 16:14
  • Ok there are errors in the log that match the times. I'm not sure if you would need to see the whole thing. The ones I see are all identical except for the number at the front, they start out like this: Error,"ajp-bio-8012-exec-3225","07/07/14","07:59:20",,"'' The specific sequence of files included or processed is: '''' " java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException at java.lang.System.arraycopy(Native Method) at org.apache.coyote.ajp.AjpProcessor.getRealPathFromServer(AjpProcessor.java:390) at org.apache.coyote.ajp.AbstractAjpProcessor.getRealPath(AbstractAjpProcessor.java:1112) – vivasuzi Jul 08 '14 at 16:26

    *not sure if you would need to see the whole thing* Maybe. Anything in the rest of the trace that gives an indication of the code or script that caused the exception? If yes, update your question to include the full trace. – Leigh Jul 09 '14 at 12:04
  • It doesn't look like there is anything specific in the error traces, just a lot of stuff like above that makes not much sense to us :) I think we are going to let this one go since no one seems to be complaining about issues related to this error. Maybe it's not even an error - but a message - who knows! We are going to focus on cleaning up the errors we can figure out first. Thanks for trying to help! – vivasuzi Jul 15 '14 at 12:10
