RemoteObject and Flash Remoting
Hi
Alessio,
Can
you check whether there are any stacktraces or other errors in the ColdFusion
flash.log file?
Also, can you find the flashgateway.jar file under
/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib? If it is there, can you please open it and tell me the
contents of the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file? Specifically I'm looking for the
Implementation Version.
What we might need to do is update the Flash Remoting
version.
Is
there any reason why you can not upgrade to ColdFusion MX 6.1 (Redsky
release)?
Pete
Peter,
I suppose that CFC files are found by the gateway
because, if I try to write a bad file name, I get a different error message:
"Service threw an exception during method invocation: No service named
compo2.intefaccia is known to Flash Remoting MX."
If I change the RemoteObject
source attribute with the right component path, I get the following
message: "Service threw an exception during
method invocation: null".
The source code of the declaration tag
is:
...
<mx:RemoteObject id="remoteObj"
showBusyCursor="true" source="compo.interfaccia">
...
or
...
...
We get the same result with or without the
endpoint attribute.
For a better understanding I show you my web
site directories structure:
/root web site/
--> compo/....CFC files....
--> images/....
--> WEB-INF/.....(Flex classes)
.... MXML files....
We use JRun 4 (updater 4) with ColdFusion 6 MX
for J2EE deployed. Both (the Flex application and ColdFusion) are deployed on
the same default JRun server.
I have removed the JRun Flash Remoting
application so there are only the ColdFusion FR gateway.
I hope this is a more clear scenario to
understand my configuration.
Thanks
Alessio

Alessio,
Can you describe more about where your CFC is on
disk or the layout of your application on the production server? Note that
in order for ColdFusion's Flash Remoting gateway to be able to invoke aCFC,
the CFC file must physically reside under a web root (i.e. you can not place
it under /WEB-INF/whatever and then rely on CF Virtual
Mappings).
P.S. RemoteObject is a Flex feature that happens to
work very similarly to Flash Remoting, but the primary use case for it isn't
to contact a legacy CF 6.0 Flash Remoting gateway. While it is possibleto
do so because RemoteObject makes asynchronous AMF requests over a
NetConnection and that you can change the endpoint attribute, Flex doesnot
guarantee that all RemoteObject features translate to legacy systems (for
example, service types, new data type mappings, new custom authentication
APIs etc).

Hi Tarik,
I have developed the application in a local web
server (without domain but with virtual directories on a same domain) and it
works perfectly.
Now I try to create the production server
(which have more than one domain) and I don't know how to configure both:
Flex application and Flash Remoting.
Using WebService tag the method call works, but
I should rewrite all the application logic because I call RemoteObject with
dynamic arguments.
It's strange that Macromedia havo no
documentation about it!!!

Sorry I missed the start of this thread. But could it be
that you CFC is bombing? I usually create test cfm's to try out the CFC
passing the same data that the Flex app would to make sure that everything
is cool on the CF side of things.

RE: [flexcoders] problem with RemoteObject and Flash Remoting
When I try start this application, I
get Flash Remoting error message: "Service threw an exception during
method invocation: null".
[Pete] The fact that you received thaterror
means that you did hit a FR gateway servlet, but a null pointer
exception happened. What version of ColdFusion for
J2EE are you using?
What can I do now?
1) I
should try to use the amfgateway (if so, I don't know how to use it
with the RemoteObject tag)
[Pete] You
can't use the amfgateway from Flex to contact CFCs.
ColdFusion is loaded in its own bootstrap
classloader.
