[flexcoders] Player Security - Local SWF accessing local and network?
Hi, Hopefully the Player Security subject hasn't scared you off but I'm stumped with an issue. When I'm creating a little demo app or any Flex app really, I'm accessing the local file system for an .xml settings file and a search will access a remote HTTP or Web Service so I'm accessing both local and remove resources. I do a Release Build, test and it works. I zip it up, send to my product owner and he gets a security error. I've tried directing him to http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htmlto tick Always allow, restart the browser, reload the flex app via the .html file but still no joy. Security error. Does anyone know why this works on my machine but not his? Is it because I'm using the Flash Debug player? Are there any rules around making a SWF be Security.LOCAL_TRUSTED ? I'm on Vista Business, my PO is on Windows 7. Cheers, Nick
Re: [flexcoders] Player Security - Local SWF accessing local and network?
The settings manager and/or flashplayertrust files make the sandbox rules LOCAL_TRUSTED instead of one of the other LOCAL_XXX sandboxes. I think you have to specify locations to trust in that dialog. AlwaysAllow option may be for internet hosted SWFs On 8/3/10 9:52 AM, Nick Middleweek n...@middleweek.co.uk wrote: Hi, Hopefully the Player Security subject hasn't scared you off but I'm stumped with an issue.
