Has anyone else experienced an oddity with Lucee and JQuery? Closed up shop yesterday with everything working. Woke up this morning and "$ is not a function" type of JQuery errors all over the place. No idea where this came from, affected all servers running one system, but none of the servers running other Lucee installations.

That sounds like a problem with the jQuery include, e.g. the browser didn't load jquery (which is where $ is defined as a function) - not a problem with Lucee

That very well could be, but why would it appear out of the blue? We're using a downloaded copy of JQuery. I don't know of any windows server updates that happened overnight, either. This is quite alien.

Sounds like you're using a CDN and the jQuery file is giving a 404.

@dswitzer you were right, but the solution was a little sideways. The src was pointing to a file provided to us by an external company in order to run their product. We recently terminated their services, but missed removing this one line. Apparently last night/this morning they closed the account which caused our reference to fail, but the error messages we received did not point to this line of code, this product/reference, or anything really remotely giving any clue other than JQuery was failing and that "$" was not a function. Truly bizarre, and not a very friendly way for a company to handle their exit, IMHO.

I'm very keen to understand how your expectation was that after you "terminated their services" you would continue to be able to use their services?
