I am trying to connect to a socket server from flex. I read, on adobe's documentation, the client automatically sends a "request-policy-file" xml element to the socket before allowing it to be opened, and should receive a policy file.
The client sends the xml element as expected, My server receives it (on the port I want to use, port 6104) and replies on the same port with:

I want to create flash banner with XML content, and host it on my site with crossdomain.xml, and then share banner code with other sites for banner exchange.So, everything is on my server.Will loading banner, on other sites, load XML from my server, if both banner and XML resides on the same server, but banner is loaded on the other site?
View 1 RepliesI'm creating a client-server game. My client is a flex based game, and my server is erlang server. At the beginning, when I test directly my flex client in flash player, I can establish a connection easily to my erlang server through socket connection. And both can exchange data with no problem. The problem rise when I deploy my flex app at Apache http server, and running it using a browser by calling [URL] my flex socket sends message requesting for a crossdomain policy to my erlang server. So I create an xml message that represent a crossdomain policy, and send it back to my flex app as a response for that request.
Yet still I can't establish any permanent socket connection between my flex client and my erlang server. I know this because I add listener on my flex socket that will modify its internal state to CONNECTED, if a connection between client-server has established.
I am trying to build a youtube player with flash and everytime I load a video, there is a runtime security sandbox error..I already put crossdomain.xml in my root serverbut I am still getting the errors...Do I miss something? Do I have to load it into my flex project?

I am trying to get the RequestToken with flex from
[Code]...
I have a Windows Server 2003, with a domain: "mydomain.com" and everything goes right until the Flash application tries to load de crossdomain.xml, because it tries to load it from "servername" and obviously the request fails. Currently I have read all about crossdomain.xml , what it is, where it goes although I can not find what I have to do so my flash application requests the crossdomain.xml from my domain "mydomain.com" and not from my server "servername".
- The domain is up and can be accessed from the internet
- The crossdomain is on the root folder and also can be accessed from the internet
How can I consume a webservice that hasn't explicitely created a crossdomain.xml? I understand it's for security and to prevent cross-site scripting, but it does seem like a major limitation to the Flex framework. For example, if I want to consume a webservice, which is suppose to be language agnostic, then I can't with Flex. The webservice/server has to be specifically prepared for Flex/Flash. If it's not, then it cannot be consumed.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to add a crossdomain file for my flash project...haven't done it before..and there are not too much information online.
View 2 RepliesI've got a small client/server test application where I have a Flex app that makes an HTTP request of a server app. The server app is a script running on my local machine, listening on port 8001. The client is a swf that I am running locally, and uses mx.rpc.http.HTTPService to make the page request.
The HTTPService is being set up as per below:
_HttpService = new HTTPService();
_HttpService.url = "http://localhost:8001";
_HttpService.contentType = "text/xml";
When I make a basic page request, my server app is first receiving a "GET /crossdomain.xml HTTP/1.1" request, which is failing since I don't have a crossdomain.xml file in place. The reason I don't have one in place is because this is all happening on my local machine (for now) and I shouldn't need one (I don't think).
I definitely had this code working before without a crossdomain.xml when I was using Flex 3.x. I thought I had it working with Flex 4 as well. Now I'm using Flex 4.5. Is there an issue here, possibly due to security policy changes?With all of this happening on localhost, why is the Flash player requesting a crossdomain.xml file?

How to play mp3's from socket connections in Flash AS3?
I have some simple programm which is listening to some port (TCP).
I connect to it using as3 sockets and it starts sending me mp3 data
How to play that data?
I am migrating an application from flex sdk 3.4 to flex sdk 4.5.I am using a telnet example of AS3 tutorials as base to construct a generic socket class that implement a specific protocol.The main problem is that the new application with the validated socket class does not fire any event (no error - no connected - no data - nothing). The try catch with the connect method does not throw any error. I checked if the events were successfully connected, but they are not fired never.Update: I used the suggestions to modidy the code. Actually, now I am receiving an error on the security policy.
This is the constructor:
public function GenericSocket(server:String, port:int, output:TextArea) {
// set class variables to the values passed to the constructor.

I've tried lots of different methods but my project send error message "Security error accessing url Unable to load WSDL. If currently online, please verify the URI and/or format of the WSDL [URL]"
put the file in different places

(my swf url : http://localhost/bin-debug/test.html checked http://localhost/bin-debug/crossdomain.xml its ok)
C:wampwwwcrossdomain.xml
I added the load line of the project
protected function application1_initializeHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
{
Security.loadPolicyFile("http://localhost/MYPROJECT/bin-debug/crossdomain.xml");
}
if flex server type select none everythings ok. but server type select PHP need crossdomain.xml how can i fix.
I am running a socket server using PHP. The socket server runs fine because I can connect to it using PHP.Now, I have a flash application that is trying to connect to it:
this.socket.addEventListener(Event.CONNECT, onSocketConnect);
this.socket.addEventListener(Event.CLOSE, onSocketClose);
this.socket.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError);[code]....
When I run the application locally, it works! However, when I upload it to my server I get a sandbox security error (#2048). The flash app is actually hosted on the same server as the socket server, and there is cross domain policy file in place.
I am having an issue with sockets where the data I'm sending is getting truncated on the client side (Flash/Flex). The data that is sent by my server is full and in tact, but flash does not wait the appropriate amount of time before firing an event saying to read the data. This results in the data not getting fully read and (as such) I can't parse the object out of it after that. We are exploring the possibility of stripping the object into smaller chunks, but the idea is for it to be as lightweight as possible so we would much rather get it to work the way it's supposed to than patch in a temporary solution.I'm not entirely sure if referring to it as the receive 'buffer' is correct, as some computers are able to receive all of the data and others are having it truncated (which means the buffer is adequate but flash isn't waiting the appropriate amount of time to dispatch the event for whatever the reason).

I've created a Flex app which uses Coltware's airxmail to send SMTP messages. It calls a locally-hosted SMTP server (hmailserver), which relays the email out as appropriate. When run within the Flash Builder environment, everything works as intended. I can also send email both locally and remotely from the SMTP server using telnet, so I know that it's not a problem with the server. When hosted on the email server box itself, outside of the GUI, the app fails to send email. I've created a crossdomain.xml file to allow this access, but I don't believe it's configured properly.

I have to deploy a webapp on Tomcat 6.0.24, serving some webservices that should be accessed with REST-style methods (not fully REST, since the used flex class HTTPService can just send GET and POST).
The webservices are deployed at [URL]
The problem is that the policy of flex sandbox (i think it is called so) requires that the server with the services has to offer a file crossdomain.xml on his root directory.
I created that file with the following contents:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>

I am testing it and it does not seem to work. Maybe i am not doing it right. PS: I think Apache is not configured to manage Tomcat-addressed requests, every request is dispatched by port, i think. I can not provide the exact flex error since i am not developing that part. I will try to make a minimal example in the next hours and see if i can reproduce the problem.
