Hi there

I am in the process of creating a new project in Flash Builder 4.

I have given the following information

Project Name – SBMS

Application – Web – runs in Adobe Flash Player

Use default SDK (Flex 4)

Server Technology

Application server type: ColdFusion

Use remote object access

Then selecting – ColdFusion Flash Remoting

Note: The computer I am creating this project on is running Apache and ColdFusion 9 (Standard)

Apache is running in the following location:

c:\Program Files\Apache\

c:\Program Files\Apache\htdocs\CFIDE

Server location – should I select Standalone or Deploy to J2EE Server

Use default location for local ColdFusion Server is currently checked (but option below is greyed out

Use built in CF web server is not checked but the web root is currently showing as:

Web Root: c:\ColdFusion9\wwwroot\WEB-INF
Root URL: http://127.0.0.1

Compiled flex application location

Output folder

c:\ColdFusion9\wwwroot\WEB-INF\sbms-debug

Its the first time I’m trying to do this so any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Got a question – when sending an outgoing message from the gateway, how do i ensure that the message goes only to a specific client? In my situation, my flex app needs to receive messages of server actions completed, so its not two-way.

The error message you are getting from “it” is that you are missing a destination or the destination is incorrectly configured. Destinations are configured manually in the messaging-config.xml file.

Be aware :

x.headers['DSSubtopic'] = “simpleChat”;

DSSubtopic is case sensitive. You have to call it in this fashion or ColdFusion/Flex will upper case the header value and make it inaccessible.

The error is gone. Im not 100% sure what I changed, but I was playing around in WEB_INF\flex\messaging_config.xml and I uncommented the property localhost. I did a few other things that I dont think were signficant. One was I defined my channel set in code instead of taking it from a config, meaning the app didnt need a services_config.xml reference in compiler settings. I also made a copy of the default destination and called it MyGateway, so I could customize settings. I still have some issues left. I cant get subtopics to work (I had commented out subtopics to start with), and my recieveChat event on the flex side is getting called twice for every chat msg, not sure why. But at least I am getting a round trip message and no error. I got mine to work. The error is gone.

I added a sendGatewayMessage to the cfc and now the output count started incrementing on the cfgateway. However, still nothing coming back to flex. I tried taking out the subtopic stuff but that didnt help. I am going to add a CFLOG and see what I get.
