I've installed developer version of Flash Media Server 4.5 and trying to get remote object, but no matter how I call my object all i get is this error .I've rad configuration guide and it told me that I should set StorageDir for shared objects, enable RPC (<RPC enabled="true">) and allow shared object (<Allow>users</Allow> in <RPC> - <SharedObject> tags)
View 1 Replieswhat is SharedObject.getRemote() and its usage?if it work just like a SharedObject.getLocal() , saved data will be in the path called 'C:Documents and SettingsusernameApplication DataMacromediaFlash Player#SharedObjects'if i using 'SharedObject.getRemote() ' means, where the data will stored? can any one explain or tell me the stored path.

I am searching for the syntax to call an OnSync event on the server-side. I tried this one but there is neither a compiling error nor anything that is traced.

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'm somewhat new to FMS. We're creating a chat application and using s remote SharedObject to keep everyone in sync about who is in the room. But despite the fact that I use the following:
_sharedObject.setProperty("groupList", groupList);_sharedObject.setDirty("groupList"); to force the shared object to update the list of who's in the room, for some reason it does not always update correctly when someone enters the room and adds themselves to the shared object. The problem seems to be that the SyncEvent.SYNC event does not always get sent all the time.
More troubling it that if the user closes the browser window or navigates to another page, NetStatusEvent NetGroup.Neighbor.Disconnect and NetGroup.MulticastStream.UnpublishNotify are not reliable to use to remove user's from the list. My assumption is that remote shared objects are just not that reliable in some cases. Should I use server side scripts to keep track of users and what groups they are in?
Need to know how to calculate bandwidth for fms shared object used in a text chat application..
View 1 RepliesHow to flush SharedObject in a separate thread? FMS is blocking the program during write, and to save more than 2,000SharedObject takes about 15 seconds.
View 2 RepliesI can't seem to get setProperty to affect any change detectable by getProperty, or any other means.
* Can you please help me find and fix the problems in my code? Also, it would be great if you could provide a snippet of code to both read/write to the SO from the Flash swf client, and changes required in the FMS server-side code to receive events onSync from another FMS server (also sending to another FMS server.. I know it should be very similar in theory).

I'm attempting to view Shared Object data in my FMS Administration Console, but I consistently get the error:Object encoding error; terminating connection.I'm using Flex 3 with FMS 3.5, I'm positive that everything is using AMF3. The Shared Objects do seem to work. I can connect to the shared object through another instance of the app and pull saved data but they are not inspectable in the administration console. Also,very often when a new instance connects to the server I get a RangeError and all of my Flash Player instances crash.

I've been designing a SharedObject-based Cookie system for a while, everything works fine in my Flash authoring tool and my localhost (I used a dummy domain) But after I committed the swf file to server, the SharedObject stopped to working. Here is the code: The only difference is that, on the server, the SWF stored on another domain. I'm not sure whether this caused the issue.

On this website [URL] you will find a big flash applet at the top of the page. It has a sharedobject built in. Every time the applet goes to a new slide/scene (which it automatically does after x seconds), it updates the SharedObject so that once you refresh the page you end up at the same slide/scene again. Now the thing is that it does this only correctly in Internet Explorer.
Code:
var so=SharedObject.getLocal("pagehit");
if(so.data.pagehit != undefined){
/* Er bestaat al een cookie */
if(so.data.pagehit == "Scene 1"){
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 1);
};
[Code] .....
This is the code of Scene 1. Where you get forwarded to another scene if the cookie exist.
Code:
so.clear();
var so=SharedObject.getLocal("pagehit");
so.data.pagehit="Scene 2";
so.flush();
This is the code of the other scenes, ofcourse with a different scene number for each. It doesn't depend on the browser but on flash alone.
I'm making a game. The game will have a save file. There are no compiler errors but when I run it, it throws the title error. I've isoalted the error to be from this line:

When I export the SWF from Flash CS5, all I get is dots and this error message. Why can't I create a SharedObject on my own computer? I've tried on two different machines and ran it on Flash Pro, Flash Player and IE9. Nothing works.
I cant flush the shared object in my project. What can I do for that problem?

I have a slideshow that everytime you press a button show a new slide. Every slide is an external swf's that is being loaded in to the main swf. Inside every external swf there is a button that redirects you to another web page.What i would like to do is use SharedObject (or something like it) to remember wich external swf that was last shown when the user pressed the button redirecting them to an other page.How do i set the SharedObject in the external swf and then read it from the main swf?

I am working on a project that uses SharedObject and I have a question. I've made a button that downloads a flash screensaver and at the same time also creates a SharedObject which stores a specific id for each screensaver being downloaded. When later the screensaver is installed and run, it should get the SharedObject and read the id from it. When tested locally it works perfect since both the buttons´ and the screensavers´Sharedobject are stored in the same localPath. But when the button is online and the screensaver is local the SharedObject paths don't match.
Is there a way to solve this and make the local screensaver swf read the SharedObject from the same path as the online download button has stored it's SharedObject in?
This is the relevant code in both my swfs:
var _mySo:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("name", "/");
If this won't work, does anybody have another solution to my remote to local screensaver thingy??

got my code working, and all information i enter in to my sharedObjects is working correctly as it should but isn't saving so when I close and then re-open the flash file the data isn't there? Admittedly I'm new to sharedObjects I'm using the [.data.] when entering info and then [.flush()] at the end of the function - is there anything I've missed?
View 5 Repliesthis is just a simple question. Is it possible to set a sharedObject in a swf (say from www.A.com) , and then read that sharedObject from www.B.com , or even through the desktop (if the swf is playing directly on the desktop) ?
