Some additional info regarding using the debugger (not content debugger), If I type netstat -an while Flash Builder is trying to connect to the running application, I can see port 7935 status is LISTEN. When I stop Flash Builder by clicking the red square icon to stop the debugger, this port goes away.
Also, another experiment for debugger (not content debugger), if I uncheck "Generate HTML wrapper file" in the the Properties > Flex Compiler tab, then clean and compile, the application runs. But then checking it, cleaning and compiling, leads to the original 57% problem. Maybe that's another clue what's going on(?). ----- Original Message ----- From: modjkl...@comcast.net To: users@flex.apache.org Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2014 10:13:37 AM Subject: Re: new Mac machine, running Flex application sticks at 57% OK, I see the system doesn't respond to fdb, I need to type ./fdb instead... When I type r then load the swf file, the fdb response is: Waiting for Player to connect Player connected; session starting. Set breakpoints and then type 'continue' to resume the session. (fdb) q The program is running. Exit anyway? (y or n) y After I type y in the last line above, Flash Player Debugger opens a window with the application in it, where it appears the application has run (it's just a checkbox, centered in the window). I'm hoping that's a useful clue somehow. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Harui" <aha...@adobe.com> To: users@flex.apache.org Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2014 9:56:07 AM Subject: Re: new Mac machine, running Flex application sticks at 57% Hmm. In my bin folder there is an fdb and other things like amxmlc, mxmlc, compc, etc. What is in your bin folder?
