Your contextroot needs to look like this: "-contextroot /[webappName]" It takes a little while to get the properties set correctly for mxmlc but once you do it works great.

We recently decided to try pre-compiling the app using mxmlc. Within the app are several references to @ContextRoot() in the url for HTTP services. When I perform a "standard" compile, meaning I use the same flex-config.xml, and use no other command line options for mxmlc, the compiler gives me an error, saying I must define contextroot. When I provide a value for the contextroot command line option, the app compiles, but the application will not run properly. My tcp trace utility shows that the URL to the HTTP service call gets "mangled" by the contextroot parameter provided, resulting in an incorrect url for the service. Has anyone encountered something similar?
