Brian,

 

Are you saying that this an Adobe Flash problem affecting the Flash
Player in 64 client computers?

 

I had one user who has a MAC computer and they had the same issue, but
after uninstalling and reinstalling Flash, all worked well. I am not
sure how they came to this conclusion but they said that the original
Flash install had partly failed, and that after reinstalling and it had
completed successfully, all was OK.

 

Do you have access to a computer on which OpenMeetings is guaranteed to
fail due to the computer being 64 bit?  If so, I have a OpenMeetings 32
bit server, and I am wondering if a 32 bit server may not cause the
issue to happen on the 64 bit client computer? Is it worth the test?

 

 

Thanks,

 

George Kirkham

Subject: fyi .. adobe flash player BUG affects x64 Mac, Linux and some
Win7 users

 

Thanks to George Kirkham's Red5 script, last night my AWS OpenMeetings
v2.0 now works.

However, I ran into a problem with Adobe Flash Player that I've since
learned affects many/most x64 Linux, Mac and some Win7 users.

The bug prevents users from clicking on & selecting options on the Flash
Player User Settings menu.

*       This obviously makes OpenMeetings unusable on these x64 bit
systems that are affected because after joining a Meeting room
*       the first thing asked after verifying webcam/microphone window
is the presentation of the Adobe Flash Player User Settings menuthat
asks If you will permit the server to utilize your Webcam & Microphone.

For Ubuntu (similar bugs have been filed in RedHat and other x64 Linux
distros) the bug description can be found here:

For MAC users this bug:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=510846

NOTE:  it affects all browsers.  there are a couple work-arounds but
they only work for some users.

If you go to Adobe's Bug tracker system and search for "flash player
mouse click" you will find dozens of bugs filed by people using many
different operating systems and browsers.

So my choice seems to be
