It could very well be that your request response time is exceeding the default time out for Remote Objects, but I'm not sure about app not working *at all* after that. This can create the intermittent behavior you're seeing, depending on load or query response time from the app's database. In AIR this is a real problem because on windows, the request times out at 30 seconds no matter what you do. But you say you're running a Flex app so, you *should* be able to set the requestTimeout on your RemoteObject to a higher value and see a mitigation of the behavior.

Running on Windows on Apache. Everything seems to work fine but then randomly (as far as I can tell) I'll start getting those flex2gateway errors: [RPC Fault faultString="Send failed" faultCode="Client.Error.MessageSend" faultDetail="Channel.Connect.Failed error NetConnection.Call.Failed: HTTP: Failed: url: 'http://localhost/flex2gateway/'"] Everything I've read on this list and elsewhere refers to this error appearing when the gateway isn't working...but it seems to be for me. When I manually call the URL above (http://localhost/flex2gateway/) I get the whitepage that is expected (I double-checked the headers and they do give me 200 response). Once this error appears I have a VERY hard time getting rid of it and getting my application to run again. I've tried restarting Apache, ColdFusion, even rebooting, I've tried rebuilding the project, I've tried manually setting the gateway in my remote object tags. Nothing seems to work, but invariably it *will* go away for a time, everything will run correctly...and then boom, it shows up again and I'm stuck again. But I have yet to figure out the pattern for when it occurs. Any ideas?? I'm really frustrated trying to figure this out and what it causing it. -- Mary Jo Sminkey Author, CFWebstore ColdFusion Ecommerce
