I have a flex application that calls a component via remoting. "components.authorization.authorize"
"components" is a directory that is MAPPED in the coldfusion administrator to another directory... In my production world, "components" is also an IIS virtual directory I was just setting up my test environment and trying to get everything working, but I was stuck at this call to the component, it was returning a null pointer exception. After some investigation, I realized I hadn't created the IIS virtual directory for "components" However, I can't figure out *WHY* I need an IIS virtual directory. I mean, after all, Flex is only communicationg with /flex2gateway/, and "components" is mapped in the coldfusion administrator, so why is the IIS virtual drectory needed? Just curious.
