Flash Movie Consuming HTTPS WebService Connects As HTTP
Sep 20, 2010
I have a Flash Movie (SWF) that is consuming a .NET WebService (located on the same domain) and in my Test environment everything works perfectly (Test env is all HTTP).
When deployed to production (All HTTPS) an issue occurs when trying to access the WebService from the Flash movie.
A new WebService object is created with the HTTPS url passed to it.
myWS = new WebService("https://mydomain/path/to/webservice")
As I watch the HTTP traffic in FireBug I can see the Flash movie making a POST request (passing along the SOAP data) as HTTP (not HTTPS as I would expect). This HTTP requests hits the firewall which forces a 302 Redirect to HTTPS. After this redirect occurs, Flash/Firefox re-sends the request to the HTTPS version of the URL, but as a GET request (thus losing all the SOAP data and making the call to the WebService invalid).
I am trying to figure out how/why a Flash WebService would call a WebService using HTTP even though I am specifically passing it a HTTPS url.

I am connecting FMS over RTMP from a firewalled network where RTMP is blocked.Connecting to my FMS server from there takes (a too long) one minute before the Flash client switches from RTMP to encapsulated RTMP into HTTP.Is there any way to by pass this delay or is it a plug-in inner behavior that cannot be short-cut ?

Does flash web services allows https:// over http ?

I am finding that if I load Flash from a HTTPS page [URL] and try to make a request within ActionScript 3 to [URL] the request does not go through. Same goes for the opposite (accessing https from a http-loaded flash script).
The request is failing, the requested data (passed from a PHP script) is not loading.
Now at first I assumed the trouble was with cross-domain policy files, but I have fixed that issue (I think).
Is there any security policy in Flash (CS5 btw) on HTTP vs HTTPS requests based on where the script is loaded from?

I have a Flash movie written in Flash 8 with AS2 that is attempting to access a webservice on a server that is https.
I can't get the webserviceconnector to even load the WSDL file.
I have a crossdomain.xml file at the root of my http/https server that allows the domain the swf is being served from to get in and it has the secure attribute for that domain set to false, but it still can't get through.
Not sure what I am missing at this point.
I have a quick update. I figured that since my webserver is serving the secure site up under a different Website in IIS that I needed a crossdomain policy file at the home directory of the site. I have placed it there and when the movie loads I am using loadPolicyFile to get the crossdomain file which still loads into flash without issue but I still get a WebServiceFault when I try to load up the WSDL.
Can anyone point out a crossdomain example where a flash movie on an http domain is accessing a webservice on an https domain?

I am building a FLEX web application that also has a payment module where the user needs to enter his credit card details.
The whole Flex application runs on HTTP. However, whenever the user lands on a page where we ask for credit card details, we want these details to be sent over HTTPS.In this page we need information from the model of the application, because it holds certain selection the user did, the state the application is in, etc.
Do I need to make this page a Module that runs on HTTPS?
Or can I just configure the specific 'credit card' services (we have a JAVA back end) so that these run on HTTPS?

My swf is being served via http protocol. I don't really see this being easily changed. There's a resource that a website has opened up via their api that I need to access but it is using https protocol. Because of this my swf can't access the resource because of security settings.
Option 1 would be to serve my swf via https. I can't do this at the moment.
Option 2 would be set secure="false" property of the cross domain policy file. I can't do this, I dont have access.

I've been trying to find the right configuration for supporting both http/s requests in a Flex app. I've read all the docs and they allude to doing something like the following:
<default-channels>
<channel ref="my-secure-amf">
<serialization>[code]..........
I'm running with Tomcat 5.5.17 and Java 5.The BlazeDS docs say this is the best practice. Is there a better way? With this config, there seems to be 2-3 retries associated with each channel defined in the default-channels element so it always takes ~20s before the my-amf channel connects via a http request. Is there a way to override the 2-3 retries to say, 1 retry for each channel?

We are planning to use flex and Java Web Services, what is the best practice to consume web service from flex is it better to directly call the web service from Action scripts or to use remoting where java client will call the web services and later flex using remoting will the java client?

Is it possible to set just one property of a remote SharedObject to clear itself? I understand that calling "clear" on an RSO will cause ALL properties to fire the "clear" event and clear out; however, what I want to do is clear out the data in a specific property so that the "clear" event/message is fired (and not the "change" one since I already have some actions in that).
I suppose I could just set the property to an empty string and put guard code inside my handling of the "change" event/message, but, I'd rather not do that.

I experience strange behavior of sockets in Python (3.2). Client connects to my application using Flash. Most of the time there is nothing unusual but sometimes python crashes in a way that should not have taken place - enter into infinite loops. Below I attach to the loop code and error message in the log. Python hang on bytesRecived = sock.recv(64) and receive b'' witch is visible in log.
code:
try:
buff = ''

I'm in the process of teaching myself the components of the CS4 Design Premium package using the Adobe Classroom in a Book series. I'm currently going through the Flash CIAB and i've started using the pen tool. The task involves creating a wave like design across the stage. Whilst this in itself is simple, the final instruction is to click on the first anchor point to close the shape. In the illustration, the closed shape seems to automatically extend around the stage, however when I click on the first anchor point, the line automatically connects between the two points in a straight line.
Am I doing something wrong? The next step is to fill this area, but with the straight line effect that I am getting, this becomes impossible. I should point out that the instruction states that the pen tool line should extend off the stage. I have done this, but even then on clicking on the first anchor point the shape is closed incorrectly.

i was wondering when I import a class, for example "import flash.text.*;", and when I import the same class in the subsequent AS file in the same package, isn't it disk space consuming? If so, is there a way to like, import it once and it will apply to all the other AS in your package?

I export a swf/html direct from flash, very simple. I upload it and it works fine in all browsers. If I change http to https in all browsers, no problems.
All browsers except IE - when I change http to https, I just get nothing - if I right click I get "Movie not loaded..." (greyed out) and the usual about flash player.
I've reinstalled my flash player, read loads of tips and tried loads of other hacks but nothing seems to work.
I am using IE 9 (for testing only)
<div id="flashContent">
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="562" height="300" id="banner" align="middle">
<param name="movie" value="banner.swf" />

Is it possible to use the flash.net.NetConnection object to connect to my Flash remoting enabled web application over HTTPS within Tomcat or any other servlet container?
I am using the SpiceFactory cinnamon project for amf remoting and have searched for examples of using HTTPS but see only the reference to a proxy type in the NetConnection object.
If someone could provide a reference or example that would be awesome. Or if it is not possible using the flash.net.NetConnection object are there any recommendations of how to configure HTTPS for the spicefactory cinnamon library.

I am using the google maps API with regular key (not premier).When connecting to my server with http, everything works fine, but when connecting with https i receive the following instead of map: initialization failed please check the API key swf location, version and network availability.Is that because it is not premier key? can I force the google maps API to use http instead of https so that I will receive the maps?

I've written a very simple one to one Video Chat application that I want to use for Live Support on my web site. The application connects to a Wowza rtmp server but I need a way to know when a user connects. We have a workstation that we will always have connected during business hours. I just want some sort of audible announcement that someone has connected to the application.
I am not a programmer so there is much I don't know how to do. I know I need to place the code to do this in the function that creates the user's connection but I have no idea beyond that how to proceed.

My webapp with flash files (fusioncharts that reads XML data)works well in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer. The problem
isn't that I can't get the XML data (the Pragma and Chach-Control header, when you get a "Error in loading data") because I can load a Excel file with html data. I get a Movie not loaded error instead, like if that IE can't load the swf file.I tested the application on another computer with https on IE and that didn't work, but it do work on regular http in IE.

SWFUpload I am using SWFUpload to upload files to a database (Windows XP) over https. Everything works as expected in IE (7 and 8), but using my Firefox 3.3.15 it fails without error message. Using the upload mechanism using http works fine!I found this thread using google. They describe that installing the CAs certificate as trusted issuer would help. Unfortunatly it did not (it was a certificate issued by a CaCert authority).
It works on the machine of my colleague who uses Firefox 3.3.15, but he cannot recall that he did anything special to make it work. I had a look at other machines using Firefox and none of them were able to upload a file to the database.I red that SWFUpload uses flash and that flash might use other certificates than Firefox itself. Does anyone know anything about it?
EDIT: This is the javascript code for the object creation:
// Create the SWFUpload Object
var swfupload_object = new SWFUpload({
upload_url: "[% cgi_path %]/mdb_bulk_import.pl",
file_post_name: 'upload_file',

I need to transfer data from a flash application running in a browser to a server running php. If I use an https connection will that be enough to ensure that the data sent from flash to the server is encrypted and sensitive data can't be sniffed, or do I need to do encryption in my flash application itself?
