I am getting coldfusion 8 ERROR using cfajaxproxy:

• "The path to the CFC must be specified as a full path, or as a relative path from the current template, without the use of mappings."
• "The specified CFC vindexer_server_ver3 could not be found. "
• at line 2, in template="C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\dei-ideas_org\wwwroot\chapter0-2\vindexer_client.cfm"

Any idea on how to fix this error?
Also, in another thread, someone mentioned turning on "extended error information".  How do I turn this on?

FACTS:

• I do NOT want to add a CFC mapping using coldfusion administrator because I am on a shared coldfusion hosting site (hostek.com).
• I can NOT change hosts at this time.
• Tested using firefox 3.6.17 and IE8
• I use jrun on my  "ColdFusion Server Standard 8,0,1,195765" test server
• In my test coldfusion server, I have "/dei-ideas_org" mapped to "C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\dei-ideas_org\wwwroot"
• In application.cfc I have the following;
      <!--- application.cfc mappings START --->
      THIS.mappings= {};
      THIS.mappings["/CFC_CustomTags"]= GetDirectoryFromPath( GetCurrentTemplatePath() ) & "inc\CFC_CustomTags";
      THIS.customTagPaths = getDirectoryFromPath(getCurrentTemplatePath()) & "inc\CFC_CustomTags" ;
      THIS.customtagpaths=ListAppend(THIS.customtagpaths, "inc\CFC_CustomTags");
      <!--- application.cfc mappings END --->
  

  
• I can access: http://192.168.1.128:8500/CFIDE/Scripts/wddx.js
• client template is located at:
  •   "C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\dei-ideas_org\wwwroot\chapter0-2\vindexer_client.cfm?cfdebug" aka
      "http://192.168.1.128:8500/dei-ideas_org/chapter0-2/vindexer_client.cfm"
• CFC (server template) is located at:
    "C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\dei-ideas_org\wwwroot\chapter0-2\vindexer_server_ver3.cfc" aka
    "http://192.168.1.128:8500/dei-ideas_org/chapter0-2/vindexer_server_ver3.cfc"
  
• if I go to url: "http://192.168.1.128:8500/dei-ideas_org/chapter0-2/vindexer_server_ver3.cfc?method=serverfn_ver3&arg...",
      I do NOT get any errors.  I also do not get any data back, should I?

SOLVED: if Coldfusion 8, and have OnRequest() in application.cfc, this will not work --it is a  known cf8 bug.  For a workaround, see
