I've started learning about flex, and using Adobe FlashBuilder 4. But I'm not too sure how to set up the locations in the project properties. Sorry this is such a beginner question, but when it comes to flex, that's what I am!
Here's my setup, and i'm not sure what to put where - the terminology in Flash Builder 4 is a bit confusing for me about what it wants where .... I have an Apache web server. The root of the web server is at the default location: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs I have ColdFusion 9.01 set up as a J2EE server, at the default location: c:\jrun4 I have my web sites (multiple) set up on a different drive. The place where I'm wanting to set up my flex project is at E:\Sites\Mysites\FlexTutorialApp\wwwroot The URL of the project is http://dev.flexapp which points to E:\Sites\Mysites\FlexTutorialApp\wwwroot The coldfusion WAR folder is the default setting of C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war. I was hoping to put the source files outside the web site, so they didnt confuse the issue when i came to deploy an application to the production server later on. I was wanting to have the flex source files at E:\Sites\Mysites\FlexTutorialApp\Resources\FlexSource So here's my question(s): [A] Flashbuilder wants me to tell it the SERVER location when i establish the project properties. Does it mean the location of coldfusion (c:\jrun4) or the location of my web site (E:\Sites\Mysites\FlexTutorialApp\wwwroot), or maybe the root of the Apache web server ( C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs ) which has nothing in it except the apache default files? The Flashbuilder project properties dialog box wants 'web root' and 'web root url' but its surrounded by a label saying 'server location'. I guess they had in mind a server with only one web site on it at the time they designed the box. Yes? [B] When i click on 'validate configuration' it says 'Cannot access the web server. The server may not be running, or the web root folder or root URL may be invalid.' I know the server is running because the url http://dev.flexapp shows the site root at index.cfm. So I've missed something somewhere or not understood what Flash Builder's looking for - can anyone help please? -- Cheers Mike Kear Windsor, NSW, Australia Adobe Certified Advanced ColdFusion Developer AFP Webworks http://afpwebworks.com ColdFusion 9 Enterprise, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET hosting from AUD$15/month -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
