Well I really learned how to debug stuff here, but the problem was dumb.
You cant have two flex webapps in the webapps folder. At some point in this process (hours ago) I had figured that out, and I had removed the unpacked samples folder from webapps, but I had forgotten to remove the samples.war file. This cause flex to be confused and was obviously reading the wrong flex-enterrpise-services.xml file.
Thanks for all your help Pete.
Hank.
Just as a test I changed the definiton of the my-amf endpoint in flex-enterprise-services.xml to
http://localhost:8080/uploadServer/messagebrokersilly/amf
just to see if this would effect what the flex debugger says I am looking for.
It still says it thinks the channel definition is:
<channel id="my-amf" type=" mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel"><endpoint uri="http://{server.name}:{server.port}//messagebroker/amf"/>
<properties>
<polling-enabled>false</polling-enabled>
</properties>
</channel>So the question is, where is it getting this from?

this is what my flex-enterprise-services.xml file says my channel definition is:
<channel-definition id="my-amf" class="mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel ">
<endpoint uri="http://localhost:8080/uploadServer/messagebroker/amf " class="flex.messaging.endpoints.AMFEndpoint "/><properties>
<polling-enabled>false</polling-enabled>
</properties>
</channel-definition>
And this is what the debugger thinks it is:
<channel id="my-amf" type="mx.messaging.channels.AMFChannel">
<endpoint uri="http://{ server.name}:{server.port}//messagebroker/amf"/>
<properties>
<polling-enabled>false</polling-enabled>
</properties>
</channel>
As you suggested in the last email I did test the endpoint in the browser and http://localhost:8080/uploadServer/messagebroker/amf is a valid endpoint because I dont get the 500 error, the screen just goes blank.
I also did a global search of the word "messagebroker" just to see if there might be some conflicting definition. But there isnt. The only place it is is where it should be. There is no other definition for my-amf. Could there be some wierd caching issue since I recently changed the endpoint to the hardcoded definition that it doesnt seem to be seeing.

[Pete] You could either debug with Flex Builder and it usually show trace output in the console panel, though I usually launch SWFs from a variety of places so I like to configure Flash Player trace logging manually. If you're on Windows, then you need to have a mm.cfg file in your %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH% directory, i.e. C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\mm.cfg
In here, the contents should be:
ErrorReportingEnable=1
TraceOutputFileEnable=1Then, assuming you're using the debug versions of the Flash Player, a file called flashlog.txt will be created in your user directory. (I use tail.exe from cygwin to tail this file so that it appears as an updating console log).
