Flash Remoting and Coldfusion MX 7

[jsegura]

I want to test if I have my Coldfusion MX 7 Dev Edition configured correctly for Flash Remoting?

My Coldfusion server is set up as a standalone web server (

http://localhost:8500/).

In Flash MX 2004 I have installed the need AS2 flash remoting components.

In Flash MX 2004, when I select Service Broswer and try to add a service "cfc.music"(webroot/cfc/music.cfc) under

http://localhost:8100/flashservices/gateway

I get the following error: HTTP: Failed.

What I'm I missing?

on first glance, it looks like you have specified a different port in your flash settings, than the port used by the standalone version of CF,

http://localhost:

8500

http://localhost:

8100/flashservices/gateway

Port 8100 according to Flash it the port used for Flash Remoting. It is placed by default in the server gateway. I did try port 8500.

Thanks for your reply!

Try typing one of those flashservices/gateway links into a web browser.. if you get a blank page, that means you got the right one

PS, I find that web services thing in flashmx 2004 a pain to work with.. I like this extension that I found. I can't remember where I got it, so here is a download from my server

http://63.208.2.144/CMXRemotingTester.mxp

Once you install it, it goes under the Window->Other Panels list, and it has fields for the usual flash remoting connection strings, ie, the gateway, url/crc location, and a spot to call a specific function, and then it dumps the results to the trace window.
