I used to run my site on a shared windows server running Coldfusion 8. I recently upgraded to a dedicated Linux box running CF 9. I want to use a custom 404 error page to 'fake' custom urls for members profiles, (ie. would bring up a members profile who has that display name). Used to work perfectly on the old server... I would just use the CGI.Query_String to grab the end of the url they entered and pull the correct information from the database. On the new server I've set the default 404 error page to the correct cfm file using .htaccess, and that works perfectly. But the CGI.Query_string variable is now empty, so I have no way of grabbing the address that was typed in. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
