Flex :: Security Error When Trying To Communicate With Twitter
Oct 9, 2010
When I try to request a token from Twitter:[code]The weird thing is that it doesn't happen when I run my App in Debug mode (from Flash Builder) it just happens when I call my application from localhot:3000 (as I'm using Rails)!
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.
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 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:
I am very new to flex, i have created a simple login page in flex and created a webproject in Eclipse having a jsp page. i have put that jsp page in tomcat webapps. Now when i run an application of login from FlashBuilder it runs fine as i have given the ip e.g [url]... and passing it as a url in HttpService and it worked fine. but when i put my login.swf file in webapps same in that folder where that jsp resides and un e.g [url]... it displays the page but when i click on the login button it gives me with this error "Security error accessing url"
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 am encountering a weird problem. I have a flex application that calls a HTTPService from another domain to retrieve some data. I have created a crossdomain.xml in my flex application with <allow-access-from domain="*"/>.
When i run my application http:[url]...., i can retrieve the data without error.But if i run my application http:[url]....., i encounter the Channel.Security.Error.
I had this error in a Flex Application that I couldn't figure out. Every time the app attempted to access the Web Service it returned the error Security Error Accessing URL.
I am building a little Flash app that will consume some web services over HTTP. When I am in Flexbuilder and run my app there, it works fine. When I goto to my FlexBuilder project on my OS and double-click on it, it works fine. When I zip up my bin-debug file, I get this error:
So I googled that and got information on about the crossdomain.xml file. Well, I can't put a crossdomain file in the service I am calling, but I can put one somewhere else. So I put the following lines in Flex app:
i need to connect to two different domains from a single flex application. the problem is the domain other than the current hosted domain is unable to login. letz say i hosted the application at LOCAL server. im able to login to the local server . From the existing application i need a login to the MAIN server too. The problem comes up here. flash security is not allowing login to MAIN server. in crossdomain we allow-access-from MAIN server. but i want access to the MAIN server from LOCAL server. is ther nything i need to put extra in [URL]?
I am trying to use a browser to debug my flash app as it needs External Interface. But whenever I try to attach the Flex Debugger to the browser running Flash app, it shows
SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.
I already checked the other question with same title as my error but changing code is not the solution here as it is an existing code and I don't get this error while using a debug version or when I am not running connected to a debugger.
I recently had this vague error happen to me with the use of LocalConnection. It happened every time I tried to connect and send data to another swf. Doing an internet search came up with little results pertaining to LocalConnection and this error and the response some people had were just ridiculous. Apparently this error pertains to image loading and fileReference also, just not in this case. My sending code works fine, even the event.level returned as status which means the other swf got the message, however a trace in the other swf callback function did not show, telling me the callback never triggered.
I tried to deploy my otherwise working flex app on a web server (tomcat 6).It threw a Channel.Security.Error.After some research, I became aware that flash movie loaded from flash_movie_domain will not be able to load resource from any other domain.Some suggested adding a crossdomain.xml.However, the crossdomain.xml route doesn't quite make sense.In this case, I am loading resources from a third party web site.My understanding is that I need this third party website to include a crossdomain.xml on their root directory in order for app to function.The third party web service is provided as is. I will not be able to change what's given. Since the third party is providing public access, it already explicitly give permission to the general public. Adding a crossdomain.xml to their root seems to be a redundant act?
I use UrlLoader.load() in my flash app. And I'm handling UncaughtErrorEvent.UNCAUGHT_ERROR to stop the app when an uncaught exception occured. UrlLoader.load() works when you are connecting the internet normally. But if the connection to the internet was lost after your browser loaded the app, SecurityError happens when UrlLoader.load() is called. I can not catch the SecurityError by using try catch and UNCAUGHT_ERROR happens and it stops my app. I don't want to stop the app when UrlLoader.load() failed because I'm just using UrlLoader.load() to log some unimportant information.
And I think timeout error also can be ocurred if it takes a long time to load. And I also don't want to stop my app due to the time out error. How can I solve those problems? And are there more other type of errors which can be ocurred and stop my app?
I have an application that connects to a binary socket server running on port 2234. I use the python policy file server, which I downloaded from [URL], which runs on port 843. If the client app is trying to connect to a socket I can see that the server is receivng the request for a policy file and that it sends it to the client. However, in the client, I get a security sandbox error. How is this possible? And is it possible to check whether the client really received the policy file? BTW, here is my policy file:
<?xml version="1.0"?><!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd"><cross-domain-policy><allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="*" /></cross-domain-policy>
I have created a crosdomain policy file, I have added code to my flex app, and I still get security sandbox violation...have I done something wrong? Here are my errors and file snippets:
Error #2044: Unhandled securityError:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: http://mysite.com/folder1/folder2/media/swf_demo.swf cannot load data from http://mysite.com/folder1/folder2/media/locXML.xml.
swf_demo.swf is my flex application
The following lines have been added to my flex application:
I have this code that is supposed to pull a thumbnail image from a remote server and return it to be displayed in Flex. my code is throwing "No active security context" errors.fter searching I saw a trick with setTimeout that is supposed to fix this, but it isn't working for me.Here is the Code in Flex 4.0 (Note: File is a custom class)
public function getThumbnail(file:File, callBack:Function):void { // only for image files if (file.mimeType.indexOf("image") > -1) {
[code]....
And I modified the code in my action script file to
public function getThumbnail(file:File, callBack:Function):void { // only for image files if (file.mimeType.indexOf("image") > -1) {
[code]...
I still get the "No active security context" error in Firefox with the debug version of Flash Player.
I am trying to post a "tweet" to my twitter using Flex (using the Flex 3.5 SDK and Flex Builder 4 if that makes any difference). On an mxml file I've created a button simply to make it easy to call an AS3 function, and in the function, I'm making a URL request. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, because my tweet ain't posting. I got these variables in the curl request provided by Twitter themselves, which actually worked. My guess is that I'm formatting something incorrectly, but I don't know what that is. Here is the code I'm using:
I want to use Twitter OAuth in my flex 4 web application and post tweets, on click of a button. some tutorials or steps to be followed for the same. Also I need to know where should I place the twitter cross domain xml file
I just want to know how to add a twitter login in a flex 4 appliation. Bascially on click of a button it should ask for login, and twitter post button which will post the tweets.
I am using loadVars to load an url from a txt file and then passing that to another loadVars.When I test the movie it gives me a security sandbox error,but if I type in the url by hand it works just fine.
PHP Code:
var url:String=""; var myData:LoadVars = new LoadVars(); myData.onLoad=function(){
[code]....
This gives a security sandBox error but if I remove url and type the url in directly it works fine.
I'm trying to integrate a Flex app with Google Checkout and code that runs fine on my local machine is throwing a Security Error when I test on my site.[code]...
I am trying to access instagrams API with FLash, I keep getting a "Security sandbox violation: cannot load data from https:[url]....? client_id=...etc" but it works in the IDE. It is loading the cross domain policy file from https:[url]....and I have security allow [url]........ in the swf.
[code]Now, the above code works fine for some people using our software while others are experiencing the following error ( in faultHandler() ):[code Again, the error happens to some people and not for others.Have I missed something? Would it be a machine / browser specific problem? As a sanity check the above code works with the same .swf file in chrome, ie, firefox and safari.I have read about the crossdomain.xml and don't think that is the issue as YouTube have that defined.Finally, all users (intranet app) are using IE and the same version of flash.I have been pulling my hair out the past 2 days and asking the question over and over again "Why is it only happening for some users and not for other users?"
I have a Flash-file, which I downloaded at a page. Now I am changing some things and this error is occuring: SecurityError #2000. The Flash-file loads an XML-file and in this XML-file, there are some paths to some picture files. All paths are valid and the pictures exists. When I changed the picture (and path), I get this SecurityError. My next idea was to replace the picture, but the path should be the original. When I did this, I got the old picture, not the new. I downloaded this Flash-file: [URL]
