Hi. I m a new flex developer.new to flash and designing too.I have good knowledge of java technologies.
Here in my flex application i m trying to use mx:HttpRequest object to communicate to server TestApplication.mxml <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="100%" height="100%"> <mx:HTTPService id="feedRequest" url="/processingServlet" contentType="application/xml" useProxy="false" fault="callFailure(event)" result="callSuccess(event)" method="GET"> </mx:HTTPService> in the call success and callFailure functions i m just trying to see whther my httprequest is working or not. <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent; import mx.rpc.events.FaultEvent; import mx.controls.Alert; private function callFailure(event:FaultEvent):void { Alert.show(String(event.message)); } private function callSuccess(event:ResultEvent):void { Alert.show(String(event.result)); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Button label="Click" click="feedRequest.send()" /> </mx:Application> I could compile this. I pasted the resulting swf file into my application root directory in tomcat 5.0 i.e i pasted in webapps/testapp/TestApplication.swf i pasted the servlet class file into webapps/testapp/WEB-INF/classes i also created a web.xml file in which i could correctly define my servlet url. I could call the swf file http://localhost:8080/testapp/TestApplication.swf but when i click the button my servlet do not recieve the HttpRequest I recieve error my callfailure gets called showing Error #2032 Stream error Http Request Error error caused by IOErrorEvent i m sure My servlet url works perfect with normal browser It does not work even requesting a plain jsp or xml which are in same folder as .swf i did like url="catalog.jsp" url="catalog.xml" Is it not the way to host a simple webapplication.. I did not use any wrappers Do i need to follow any other folder structure when deploying?? I also tried using crossdomain.xml Does it have anything to do with my windows or flash player version? Does any one have folder structure for deploying flex applications in tomcat? I could see my webserver does not receive request at all. In what way flash players httpservice is different from normal web browsers request? Where did i go wrong. Please help. I m completely stuck not able to move from here.. Appreciate any kind of help. Thank you Roopa.
