When you run on your local machine, there is no enforcement of security rules (mainly because there is no server serving the swf and thus no domain to verify against), but also as a convenience for development.
When you deploy to a server, that server becomes the domain for your SWF. Any access to a different domain in a url (even the ip equivalent of the domain) is considered cross-domain and the server being accessed must grant permission via crossdomain.xml. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dominique Bessette - Halsema Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 11:09 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] crossdomain not working with HTTP Request Error I'm trying to finish this project and i'm running out of time if anyone has any ideas PLEASE let me know. I have a flex application that calls my web service through the wsdl which is located in an ear file http://{svr8}:port/weemc-service/weemc?wsdl <http://%7bsvr8%7d:port/weemc-service/weemc?wsdl> on my local machine the flex app works when i try to get the data from the database, but on my production server (which is svr8) i get a "security access error". when i change the url so that i am viewing the file throught the web server (ie. svr8) and not the ip address I get a [WSDLError faultString="Element "" not resolvable" faultCode="WSDL.BadElement" faultDetail="null"] error. After i select dismiss all and refresh the flex app then it's get's the data from the database. if i try to post/update data in the database on either my local machine I get this error [RPC Fault faultString="HTTP request error" faultCode="Server.Error.Request" faultDetail="Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: but then it still updates the data if i try to post/update data on production server nothing happens i put the crossdomain.xml file in the ear file i am trying to call http://{svr8}:port/weemc-service/crossdomain.xml <http://%7bsvr8%7d:port/weemc-service/crossdomain.xml> the database the ear file is accessing is on http://{svr7}:port/isqlplus <http://%7bsvr7%7d:port/isqlplus> More info: svr8 is a weblogic server that is running in a cluster with an Admin server and a managed server flex running as a war file on svr8 the secure attribute in the crossdomain file is set to true
