Hi Andrew, Detection of old flash player version is fine.
What I am experiencing is this. I already have 8.0.22 player installed. When the flex-config.xml file is detecting 7.0.14, the application is fine. When i change it to 8.0.22 and redeploy, the application doesn't work anymore. (The loading bar reaches the end, and stops). I change the flex-config.xml back to the original and everything works again! The only change is the flex-config.xml file. Nothing else! Anybody with ideas on why this is happening?
