ActionScript 3.0 :: Relative Urls For Security.loadPolicyFile?
Jan 6, 2012
I'm trying to research some support for this but not getting very far, so I'm hoping you all can help. Is it possible to do something like the following:
URL...I'm trying to connect to the java server which sends back the policy data.From the IDE, absolutly nothing happens.Where can I start to know what's going on? I've looked at so many forum posts and exemples but nothing seems to correspond to my problem.the policy file allows all, the ports are open, the file and directory of my local swf are added to the trusted list in the flash global security settings.I'm using Security.loadPolicy File ("xmlsocket://xx.xx.xx.xx:xx"); with the right IP and open port which my server listens to.
I have a Flex 4 application the needs to retrieve XML from a web service and the web service does not sit on the same server as the Flex 4 application.
I was getting the Sandbox security violation #2048, I eventually figured out that I needed a crossdomain.xml file on the web service server which I put in C:Inetpubwwwroot. Tried again and all was good, it worked.But, I don't want the crossdomain.xml file to reside in the root of the server because I only want the crossdomain.xml file to affect the directory the web service is in.So I put the crossdomain.xml file into the directory where the web service resides and used Security.loadPolicyFile() but it does nothing, I get the Sandbox security error again. I checked with HTTP traffic with Fiddler2 and the request is being made successfully so I know that the application is getting the file, it just doesn't seem to be using it.
Is there something I'm missing? Below is the AS code I'm using, i tell the application to use the policy file in the application complete event handler, and i load the xml in the buttons click handler.
I need to figure out a way to check if a crossdomain policy file has been loaded before initializing a certain component. The component won't work correctly if the crossdomain policy hasn't been loaded. Is there a way to do this? I can't figure out a way to get this working. This is the script I'm using:
Specifically, the developer of a web service I'm trying to call has installed a cross-domain policy file on his server at:[URL] So, in my SWF, I'm calling this:
[Code]....
Of course, it's not there, so it fails to load. (If the developer could install the file at the root, I wouldn't have this problem, so I wouldn't be using System.security.loadPolicyFile in the first place). It's not just in the IDE - when I test the app in Firefox with Firebug, I can see that the SWF is attempting to load the policy file from [URL].
I've stripped down the SWF so that it does nothing else but attempt to load the policy file from the subdirectory, and it still fails. So, I don't think this has to do with any idiosyncrasies of my specific app. Bottom line - does the System.security.loadPolicyFile work? Is there something else I need to do in conjunction with that call to get it to work? Or, is there something I'm doing wrong?
so i was trying to lop an Internet radio player, that will connect to different shoutcast servers, and play the radio, of course in development time everything was ok, now the time came for publishing just to be surprised with this messageof course i know what to do, but the end user will most likely won't know, and also i think this is a set back for developing such stuff, i also once tried to develop a twitter widget same thing happened when trying to communicate with twitter output, to work around that i could load the xml file from twitter into a local file using php, but i see a lot of flash files that uses flickr, twitter, and other sites, so how do these widgets work without triggering the security message,
I'm trying to display the profile images from both facebook and twitter. For facebook, the URLs I'm receiving are something like this (not actual urls):[URL]... Which is then redirected to the 'actual' url like this:[URL].. I'm also doing this with twitter, with the same issue (redirected url).
So, when I load the image, it loads fine. But when I close the container that the image is in, then I get the security sandbox violation. I can get this all to work if I add the URL from the 'actual' image url like this:
I am connecting to a Java game server via an XMLSocket and serving the crossdomain.xml policy file via loadPolicyFile(). The problem is, the thing either works, or it doesn't Is there any way I can get any status information back from loadPolicyFile() ?file didn't load, file is invalid, anything. Is there a way to attach an onLoad handler to this? The documentation claims that this thing will wait for a response before it attempts any connections.
I have an SWF hosted on one server (let's say, url..),trying load data from a remote server (let's say,url...),in subdirectory /scripts /public/data.txt.In that subdirectory I have a file named crossdomain.xml, with the following content:
HTML Code: <?xml version="1.0"?> <cross-domain-policy>[code].....
Now this doesn't work. The SWF doesn't get access to data on that directory. It displays "undefined" instead of the expected value.
Notes:It does find the xml file.I know because when I try to load a file that doesn't exist it throws an error that says the file was not found.When the xml file is on the root directory (and there's no need to call the loadPolicyFile function),it works perfectly (displays the expected value),which means the xml file is fine.I thought maybe I need to wait for the loadPolicyFile to complete,but according to Adobe's help documents, all loading processes wait for the loadPolicyFile process to complete before rejecting a connection .Perhaps I used the loadPolicyFile function wrongly somehow,but I find it unlikely, since I copied the syntax from Adobe's help documents.
I am new to Flash and ActionScript 3.0 environment. I don't have any knowledge in depth with Flash and ActionScript 3.0. I am using the flash(.swf file) in my Java application. Now, this .swf file is to be placed in the server system. While I am working with these, I faced an error. Here, my issue/problem(s) starts....
1.)With the help of URLRequest & URLLoader classes, I am loading a jpg file dynamically onto the stage using the following code:
I have a swf one one server that is pulling content from an Amazon S3 server. I have set up, for now, a generic cross-domain policy to allow all domains access:[code]These seem to be playing nicely (for the most part) as my swf is loading json, xml, etc. files from the S3 server just fine now. What it's not doing right is loading swfs from the S3 server, when it tries to do that it throws this exception:[code]I assume this is because remote swfs could contain malicious executable code. Do I actually need to set the allowDomain to something or is there some other 'more correct' way of allowing my swf to load up other remote swfs?
I am getting a strange problem while I am making my release build swf.The swf is supposed to make some internal server calls and then display the data and also play it.When I make a release build swf and excute it, while making server calls it throws exceptions likeSecurityErrorHandler: [SecurityErrorEvent type="securityError" bubbles=falsecancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2170: Security sandbox violation:file:///Path to the swf/WebPlayer.swf cannot send HTTP headers to **Method Name to bring data from the server***]And after this nothing can be done as everything depends on the data from the server..I have updated my cross-domain.xml on the server to support the master-only policy file but that also didnt ..My cross-domain.xml is
I haven't fully grasped how the flash security model works, and now I've ran into a problem. I have a base SWF that loads a game loader swf, which in turn loads the actual game.What I'm trying to do is taking a current bitmap snapshot of the running game. This works fine before the loader swf has loaded the game. When the game is loaded, I get a security violation because the game has images pulled from facebook. Is this something that can be solved on my end, or restricted by security in the game swf?
the PolicyFile's url is like this :[URL]and my restful webservices address is like this : [URL]crossdomain.xml include my flash's host url.the weird thing is flash still tried to load the [URL] like this first is right and response 200. the second response 400 .finally, the flash still told me SecrityError#2048
I'm having trouble with an AS3 AMF RemoteObject request that is hosted on App Engine. I have a crossdomain.xml file in the root of the domain, and also one at the remoting endpoint.Here are the contents of the root crossdomain.xml:
Loading the swf file and testing it on my machine works just fine... I think that may have something to do with me having the debugger version of Flash Player. When I push it up to App Engine to make it public, other clients access it and get a Client.Error.MessageSend Channel.Security.Error error Error #2048 url: http:[url].......I am using Flex 4 beta, and the App Engine Python runtime. I have tried full wildcard in the crossdomain, and even accessing the data endpoint at a relative URL so as to avoid this error.
My SWF resides on domain A, is loaded by a web site on domain B and is trying to ping URL (URLLoader.load) on domain C. But I am getting "#2048: Security sandbox violation" .. why? Of course I have read the manual, I saw the security white paper but I do not understand it. Don't you know any blog or such where it is explained for dummies? With lots of examples and maybe a table showing what is allowed and what is not?
I get following error: Error #2044: Unhandled securityError:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: [URL] cannot load data from 192.168.3.5:4854. at TicTacToe_fla::MainTimeline/TicTacToe_fla::frame1() ". I tryed to solve this problem about 3 hours, but I failed I have the file crossdomain.xml in the same folder like my .swf file on the server with this content:
On one of the pages (In the site I'm designing) I have 4 buttons that need to link to 4 separate URLS. When I code one of the buttons, a link on another page is stopped.I guess what I'm asking is, what is the best way to 'layout' my button links in each page? And what is the best way to achieve 4 buttons with 4 different urls.
I am trying to put 3 buttons in a frame. I want each of themto act as a link to Web pages. If I use just the code forlink_btn_one it works great. If I include the code for the other 2it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?Here's my code:
var link:URLRequest = new URLRequest(" http://www.skybooks.com"); link_btn_one.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);
I am a designer working on a flash project that is used to navigate to html pages. The project is a map - when you roll over different states there is an animation making that state pop out and show the state name. When you click each state (Button), it should open an html webpage. Right now the project works great, but I have the url's coded in flash actionscript using "onpress" and "load url." I would like to set it up so the flash file calls the URL for each button from an xml file, so it can be easily edited. The only thing it needs to call is the URL for each button. Can anyone give me simple instructions on how to make that happen?
How would you add a target="_self" function onto the buttons in this actionscript (as3) I need the buttons to open within the same browser window and not a new (_blank) window:
skype_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler); function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("skype:mySkypeIdentifier")); } email_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseUpHandler); function mouseUpHandler(event:MouseEvent):void { navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:myEmailAddresss@myDomain.com?subject=rts Esolutions enquiry")); }
I have a slide show swf file with an invisible button on the top frame. I would like this button to go to different URLs depending on what frame the movie is on when it is clicked. Is this possible?
The following works for one url: oneBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, oneButtonFunction); function oneButtonFunction(event: MouseEvent) { var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://webpage/"); navigateToURL(request); }
The reason I am trying to do it this way is I want the script to all be on one frame because I will be using this as a template for other slide shows and want to be able to edit the urls all in one window. I already have a slide show with key frames at the places where the new url would be accessed is click, but it is a pain to edit and add new content.
I'm building a flash app that gets rss links from a list but then I need to retrieve the rss feed from the rss link to work with in flash. I did this locally using a proxy.php wich works on all types of urls.
But on the server it only works with urls ending in .rss but not when it's a redirected url like .xml or other feedreader urls. How do I retrieve the rss from redirected urls on servers? Little sidenote, I made a test using a php form to call this proxy.php file that I made and when I use the urls that don't work in the flash app it does retrieve the rss feeds.
I'm building an mp3 player expressively to make my music URLs a little less steal-able. Forgive my hacking ignorance here, but would it be better to embed my playlist XML (with the URLs) in the SWF rather than having the SWF read the XML file from my server? Seems that the latter approach would be easier to intercept...
I'm pretty sure that no one wants my mp3s badly enough to decompile the code. But with the player currently at my site, my XML playlists -- with the URLs -- started to come up in Google searches. Would rather avoid *that* level of exposure.
im trying to find info about giving sections of my flash websites different urls.[URL]How do i code it so that a url can take me to a section of a flash website?
