Flash and Flex communicate using an AMF Gateway built into ColdFusion. Most of the time it is located at "domain/flex2gateway" so in your case I'd expect it to be "localhost/flex2gateway" . If that URL loads a blank page [as opposed to a 404 error], there is a good chance that the gateway is working properly. Just that your Flex app is looking for the URL in the wrong place.
You probably need to open up the Services-Config file and possibly make changes to it. The full path location of services-config should be listed as a compiler parameter in the project properties.
