This is kind of a long shot, but here it goes. We have had some odd flash troubles, but none of them originated from the server-configuration, but from the request configuration. How is your Apache setup, do you use https through Apache, and when you test through the Tomcats directly you use plain http? If the flash-resource has an Expires setting (in http-headers) of 0 we thought that the files was forced to be fetched each time from the server. IE doesn't work that way when using flash, as it looks like the flash plugin tries to fetch the swf file from the browser cache, where it has already expired. This happens only over https. When we set the Expires header to 8 seconds or so, it worked. Maybe this setting is changed during your "upgrade" to SP2? Also, when you try to show your flash files, are they embedded in html? Do your flash perform any kind of callbacks to the servers, for loading additional resources? If they try to access the tomcats directly, this might work if the tomcats are accessible, maybe the new setup has made the tomcats inaccessible for direct requests? Another flash problem we encountered in IE was that if the html to embed the flash pointed to the plugin-page at macromedia using a http url in a https setting, IE would complain about insecure elements, or not show the flash. All these may be reasons for flash not showing, but not directly caused by SP2. One guess could be that a firewall issue is preventing clients from accessing tomcats directly, and the upgrade turned this firewall on, and that flash tries to do callbacks to the tomcats? Well, enough guesses for now, hope this helps in some way.
