RE: [flexcoders] Please, help: the release player displays a blank page in all browsers.

2008-06-05 Thread Alex Harui
In FlexBuilder3, you use Export Release Build...  You can turn off your
debug flags too, but I'd just use the builtin feature that does that for
you.

 

The release player doesn't have trace log output so there's no way to
leave a trail of what is happening.  The debug player has trace output
and allocates and garbage collects memory differently since it has
defenders on every allocation.  The only way to leave a trail in the
release player is to use a loading SWF that has some UI that can show
that trail.

Thank you for your answers. 

Alex: I could try to write an application that loads my swf, but
actually I think the swf should work fine since I can run it from debug
players. What do you mean with "deploying a release swf"? I just omitted
the "-compiler.debug" directive and put "false" as the value of the
"debug" tag in flex-config.xml. Is it right?

Tracy: I don't think an error occurs, since I don't see anything while
running my app in a debug player.

Subject: [flexcoders] Please, help: the release player displays a blank

I'm experiencing a strange issue: I'm not able to run my Flex app using
the release player (I tried Firefox2/player 9.0.124, IE5.5/player 9.0.47
and IE7/player 9.0.124). The page contains a blank swf (when I right
click I can see the Flash player menu). The same application works in
all browsers using a debug player. The swf doesn't work even if I try to
access it directly, while I'm able to run other Flex applications both
standalone and using the HTML wrapper. 
I'm using the Flex 2 SDK hotfix 2 command line compiler.
I actually don't know what has caused this behaviour since I use a debug
player 99% of time... a colleague discovered this while testing the
application. A possibile hint: this morning, using the debug player,  I
saw a popup window prompting me for the location of "the debugger or the
profiler": this happens occasionally and, until now, I didn't pay much
attention to it (don't know exactly why it appears, I'm compiling using
the same options since many months). When I switched to the "runtime"
player the swf seemed to freeze at the same point, though in this case I
didn't see the popup window. Maybe this window and the blank page issue
are related?
Obviously I cannot force my customers to install a debug player ;-)

Any help appreciated.

Bye,

Does your app do a data service call on start-up?  Perhaps you have a
security problem that is causing an error on the non-development system,
and the release player is not displaying the error.

 

Try to run the app on a non-dev system, but use the debug player.

RE: [flexcoders] Please, help: the release player displays a blank page in all browsers.

2008-06-04 Thread Alex Harui
If you deploy a release SWF, it won't ask for the debugger.  If you
deploy a debug swf and run it on a release player, it should work just
fine and not wait to hook to a debugger.  So, that shouldn't be the
problem.

 

One thing to try would be to write another release SWF that loads your
SWF and build some UI in the loading SWF so you can inspect the loaded
SWF.
