A swf www.abc.com cannot dl data from localhost without a policyFile
on localhost.
If you place a policyFile on the server hosting mysql and allow the
server where your swf resides you 'should' be alright.

Hello,
Such as, mysql server I am using is "localhost:3066" in my server.
And my server has address "www.abc.com". The swf file runs as
www.abc.com/abc/abc.swf. Does it count in same domain?

I'm not quite sure what it is you're doing, but it sounds like
you're talking directly to mysql over a socket connection. I'd be
very careful in doing so in that all of your mysql authentication
info is included in the swf file. The swf can be easily decompiled
and your database compromised.
I'd look into using server-side technology to handle the mysql
interaction.... CF/PHP/etc.
Aside from that, you're swf once uploaded is running in whatever
domain you uploaded it to. If you want to disregard the above, and
just get it working, make sure mysql and the swf are running on the
EXACT same domain.

Hello all,
I am using flash.net.Socket class to connect mysql database. And I
always meet sandbox violation error. I have some questions
regarding this problem.
1) When I develop the flex application and mysql database
(localhost:3066 is used) in same machine, there is no sandbox
violation box error, since they are considered as in the same
domain. Am I correct?
2) After I upload the flex application the server which is
equipped with mysql, I access the flex application from client
machine. Firstly the flex application will be downloaded to the
client machine's cache, then start to execute. Now flex
application and mysql database are considered as in different
domain, and the sandbox violation may happen?
3) In order to solve it, I need to enable mysql remote access? Set
mysql server address to digital format (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) to
instead of "localhost"?
4) Or alternative way to solve it is to set "crossdomain.xml" file?
Thank you.

Joe
