Well, I figured this one out, too... Apparently it's not possible to install 32-bit *anything* on 64-bit IIS, unless you put IIS into 32-bit mode by running the following script: C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts\cscript.exe adsutil.vbs set W3SVC/AppPools/enable32BitAppOnWin64 true And it's that script that kills CertSrv on 64-bit IIS. This flag must be set to false in order for CertSrv to work on IIS. So to solve the problem, I talked my boss into buying 64-bit ColdFusion 9 Standard Edition Upgrade. Hell of a solution, eh? LOL Anyway -- thanks to the guy from Adobe who e-mailed me off-list (and especially thanks to the group-member here who forwarded my e-mail to him!!)

I can go all the way through the install process on the 32-bit version of CF8. But on the 64-bit version, it chokes when I enter the key. The very same key that WORKS in the 32-bit version. So all I need is a key that will work with the 64-bit version of CF8. I've been on the phone and on the live-chat with Adobe tech-support for HOURS!!! And they just don't get it!!

You are definitely a candidate for the Marshall Plan since you are trying to avoid recompiling modules. However, it sounds like in your current setup you would need to recompile.

I'm going to continue to stay out of the fray, but just to be clear, that conversation is about Flex Builder, not the SDK. We will always support developers on Linux, it's a question of what we tools beyond the SDK we provide. We'll be looking to share more information on our plans in a few weeks.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: New Adobe forums coming!
I know there are plenty of people who still use NNTP (I certainly hadn't realized how popular it remained among our community since it didn't seem to work so well for me). But yes, we won't be able to support NNTP right now. That said, most email clients today support threading of messages which means that you can have pretty much the same experience as what you were getting before. To me, not having to launch another client to track the forums is a pretty significant win (since my email client doesn't support NNTP). I realize I won't be able to convince the diehards of the benefits of the overall change, but I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that this change is going to benefit the majority of the Flex community.

[flexcoders] New Adobe forums coming!
Hi all, If you've been using the Adobe forums via the web interface recently you probably saw notices that we're introducing a huge upgrade to the forum system. We're combining the user-to-user forums (adobeforums.com) and the adobe.com forums into a single forum system. We're going to have some great features in there like email participation, RSS feeds, moderation supported by community members (on specific forums, if appropriate), better text entry support (including some levels of code formatting), and user ratings. This has me pretty excited as I think it will be a huge improvement over what we have. The forums are going to be down starting on Friday at 3pm PDT so we can migrate the last 36 months of content over to the new system. We expect the new system to come up by Monday. Once they're up I hope folks will check things out and become active participants. I'll be curious to see what you think, I'm hoping we might even look into combining some of our separated forums under the system if it can meet folks' usability needs. So stay tuned! Matt

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Builder Compiler Performance Benchmarking
Also, if everything is an individual MXML application file but then you're editing code that they depend on, you're compiling all of those individual MXML files each time. That's going to take a significant amount of time because each one has to be linked. What happens if you don't have lots of applications in your project but instead only have one or two applications? Matt On 3/26/09 1:03 AM, edlueze edlu...@onegen.com wrote: Some more information about my slow compiler: I'm running on a dual-core HP workstation with 4GB of RAM. I try to limit what else I'm running (usually just Excel and Firefox) and I've been watching Task Manager without noticing anything remarkable. More recently I've been forced to work offsite on a laptop (dual-core 1GB) and the performance is a little slower. The desktop and laptop were setup completely differently with different versions of Windows. However, I was too lazy to reinstall Eclipse so I just copied over C:\eclipse (including the workspace) from my desktop to my laptop. Clue #1 - it's probably more to do with my Eclipse than my computer. Small applications compile quickly. The problem grew slowly worse over time - after a month I was forced to abandon the Build Automatically option. I haven't integrated my application, so right now it is a series of individual MXML files running by themselves in the browser (all within the same Project). Most files import other classes, and a couple include other files in a pretty ugly way. But I would have thought keeping them separate like this would reduce the compilation time. I'm not including any graphics in my application yet. But I do Embed a couple of XML files at compile-time. One of them is reasonably large (8,000 lines) and I dread changing it because the application will only see it after a full recompile. Next to those individual MXML files, the only thing that has consistently been growing is this Embedded XML file. Clue #2 - maybe the compiler doesn't like Embedding files? I'll work on doing that other stuff you recommended - compiling with ANT/MXMLC, and generating the line count. I might also try upgrading Flex Builder.

A few things to check/do: 0. Create a basic application. Does compiling even the simplest of apps take a similar amount of time? 1. Get a line counter. There's dozens out there, just grab one you're happy with (no, I don't have any particular recommendations). At least just get a file and line counter so you've got some basic metrics to base information on. 2. What is the system CPU doing? Is it burning away at 100% while compiling the whole time? Similarly, are you running out of memory? Eclipse can get pretty memory hungry, and if you're only on a 1GB system with Eclipse trying to chew 700MB, it could be paging like crazy. 3. Fire up perfmon and add some counters while you do a compile. Find out what's going on - any heavy disk thrashing, cpu/memory loading. Basically try to identify is it just doing any timed waits or blocking calls? 4. Write an ANT target to compile the source from a CLI, if you haven't done so already.

[Hello. New to the list. Found you from a google search for a bug I've encountered. Looks like I've found the right people!] I have encountered this same bug and wonder if there was ever a resolution? As a work around, I have removed every bit of security enabled code (no javascript to actionscript calls) from my home-rolled rsl libraries. Is there a way to build the SWC/SWFs or link to them or some crossdomain.xml trickery which can properly solve this problem? --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com , Jamie S jsjphoto@ wrote: Does Framework Caching affect the security settings? I was banging my head against a wall because my app was throwing security violations all over the place when an outside swf ( or JavaScript ) tried to access the main app. I was using Security.allowDomain(*) but it was being ignored completely. I turned framework caching off and everything worked again. What is the connection? How can I use framework caching and still keep my security settings intact? Jamie

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Roadmap Question
If it's marked as fixed and the history shows it as not having been the same day as you looking at the bug, then it's likely in the nightly build. This is for the SDK obviously.

We're working with the AIR team on this, FB-16153 Matt On 3/6/09 9:17 AM, Beau Scott beau.sc...@gmail.com wrote: I just updated our code base to use Flex SDK 3.3 AIR 1.5.1 (thanks to some weird dependency issue that occured when updating the system's AIR runtime to 1.5.1 and not the debugger... real nice), and am now having horrible issues debugging on all platforms. We primarily develop on Linux, and are used to the frequent/random debugger disconnects that have always plagued it, but are now experiencing random lockups of the application being debugged. Thinking this was a Linux oversight, we booted up to Windows -- and disappointingly found that there are as many issues in debugging in windows now. For no apparent reason, when launch an application for debugging, about 20% of the time the application never starts. You can see the decompression message in the debug output, but that's it. ADL is still running, not really consuming more memory, and the debugger stays connected, but nothing happens. Debugging on Windows also has the same random/frequent lockups that Linux did after the SDK update. I've updated all the runtimes, etc., following the instructions here: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flex/flexbuilder_linux/releasenotes.html#air and adapting them to fit all platforms (with regard to executables).

We didn't know if a component-level Boolean flag to control editability was necessary (it was the source for a notorious set of hairy issues in Halo List and we were wary of tackling that in Spark) b.) It was relatively straightforward to extend the component to include the concept of an editable state and author an edit-aware skin. So we're not necessarily providing that subclass of the component out of the box, but it should be easy for you :-) Matt On 2/11/09 9:05 AM, Matt Chotin mcho...@adobe.com wrote: I'm checking with some folks, but we're not changing the way Halo works so I think you'd consider to be a Spark adjustment.

Re: [flexcoders] Adobe Presentation Tool
It's an internal use only project but I'm not sure it's even being worked on right now. I'll be honest, not exactly ready for prime time last I saw it...

Problem is I can't find any mention of it anywhere except on Andrew Shorten's blog (here's a screenshot: http://www.ashorten.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/air-presentation.jpg). Is this for internal Adobe use only or...? I WANT IT!
Re: [flexcoders] Thanks to Adobe...
Yes, the next meetings will be more organized. I think we probably anticipated most of the questions but frankly I wanted to see how the conversation would flow and I also didn't expect quite so significant a turnout (a pleasant surprise!). The iteration meetings will have more of an agenda for sure. Thanks for coming! Matt On 1/28/09 11:57 PM, Gregor Kiddie gkid...@inpses.co.uk wrote: ...for hosting the open SDK meeting last night. It was good to see so many names I recognised ;) If I can make one little suggestion though? Next time, ask for the questions in advance, as the majority of questions answered were from who could shout loudest in the chat window. For those who didn't go, probably the biggest note of the meeting was the introduction of open iteration meetings, which I hope get a good turnout as well. Gk.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 3.3
Yes, it will be a separate download. We're also going to make this strategy better in Flex 4.

In the past, the only way to get them was to install Builder and rip them out by hand. Are they now, finally, going to be available as a separate download ?
