Specify temp directory and file name for file uploads?
I'm interested in understanding how MX processes file uploads.
1) By default, uploaded files seem to be placed in the
[drive]:\CfusionMX\runtime\servers\default\server-inf\temp\wwwroot-tmp
directory. Can you specify a different upload directory?
2) MX seems to generate a random temporary file name, like "neotmp3122.tmp"
for uploaded files. Is it possible to specify the name of the temp file
used? I know that you can rename the file after it is uploaded, using
CFFILE, but is it possible to specify the temporary file name that is used
during the upload?

You can't change any of these things, unless there's some hidden method of
digging into the system's config files.
Want to see something wild? Create the following file and name it
testupload.html. Note the extension.
Upload a nice big file. Something big enough that you can watch where it goes
on the server while its uploading. Despite the fact that the file is pure html
and has a .html extension, the file no longer goes to the Windows temp folder.
Its still being handled in the CF temp directory, where on completion of upload
its promptly deleted as you'd expect.

Really? You can't change the temp dir? I'm building a site that will manage
semi-professional video. It's possible some users will upload multiple GB video
files, and if three people were to upload very large files at the same time
there exists the very real possibility that the drive will run out of space and
they'll receive an error. Other than putting the app server on a 120GB drive,
what else can I do to avoid this?
