Dave, have you solved this yet? I'm having the exact same problem and error message. My thread is: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/message/100770
One thing to ensure is that the module you are loading is compiled with a root tag of mx:Module and not mx:Application or something else. I found that you get the "SWF is not loadable module" "theoretically" when the loaded SWF does not expose one of the IFlexModule interfaces, I think it's IFlexFactoryBlah... or something like that. However, I know my module is a true mx:Module rooted SWF and it still won't load when BOTH of the SWFs are local. And like me, you're probably doing it correctly and are in fact trying to load a true "module" swf. And, like you, I can verify that the module.swf is in fact being downloaded by the Flash player. However, when Flex tries to load the module, it fails. I've seen some posts spread around the net about the ModuleLoader being GC'd *before* the call to access the IFlexFactoryModule(?) interface on your module and thus even though the module was downloaded, the moduleLoader is gone by the time you try to actually communicate with the module. Why this is, I'm not clear yet. And, I'm not entirely sure this is the cause of our problem. But, I've been banging my head on the wall for a few days trying every possible solution too to get it to load my module (WITH BOTH SWFS BEING LOCAL Alex): tweaking the applicationDomain property before it's loaded, etc etc. The thing is, we're both initially attempting (and fully expect) to be able to load BOTH the host and the module SWF from the LOCAL machine. This would be logical since that's where we fcking develop our code. So, it's very odd to me that you can't build your project and load both the host and the module from the local filesystem. If there's an extra deployment step in there that we need to be following in order to build and debug our apps, I certainly have not found it in the Flex docs yet.... Anyway, please let me know if you come up with the solution. I'll definitely do the same...
