I'm not the expert on network sniffers but apparently there are such things so you can tell what is being accessed. If your crossdomain.xml is in http://[host]:[port]/crossdomain/crossdomain.xml, then you will need to use loadPolicyFile, but if you have a wsdl in your app, it might get fetched before your call to loadPolicyFile so you have to make sure you get the timing right.
Server OS shouldn't matter. Prove you can hit the crossdomain.xml by typing its url in a browser. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dominique Bessette - Halsema Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2008 11:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [flexcoders] crossdomain not working with HTTP Request Error i tried creating a war file with the context-root = / it's located at http://[host]:[port]/crossdomain <http://%5bhost%5d:%5bport%5d/crossdomain> and i tried using the loadPolicyFile command where i tried loading it from http://[host]:[port]/crossdomain <http://%5bhost%5d:%5bport%5d/crossdomain> and http://[host]:[port]/fcs-service/crossdomain.xml <http://%5bhost%5d:%5bport%5d/fcs-service/crossdomain.xml> and it's still not working. i'm still getting http errors and Error while loading imported schema from parent location: http://[host]:[port]/fcs-service/fcs?xsd=1Security <http://%5bhost%5d:%5bport%5d/fcs-service/fcs?xsd=1Security> error accessing url" faultCode=" XML.SchemaError.Import" what if my server is running on a linux server does that make a difference? should i put it in the /root directory? how can i tell if the crossdomain file is loading?

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]> [mailto: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> ] On Behalf Of Dominique Bessette - Halsema Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 11:09 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[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.
