OK I finally found the culprit! A colleague asked me to test some DEV setup on a database change he did. Therefor he told me to install an app which would edit my localhost file. I did not see this as a related cause until I saw this possible solution: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10530208/640907

Hi Alex, I tried running adl from command line but nothing happens, I get no output. Probably I'm doing it wrong. You mentioned "ads" in your e-mail but I guess this is a typo? I do not have ads in my bin folder. I did manage to run swfdump -abc DebugTest.swf and the output contains debugline

I'm not sure you "must" have an mm.cfg file. I think if you don't have one, you just won't get certain kinds of information in the flashlog.txt but the debugger would still work. Mine looks like Josh's so you can try starting with that. If you had an mm.cfg file, Flash Builder might have

Hi, I have checked [1] but something does not seem right. It states (for Mac): Flash Player first checks the user’s home directory (~). If none is found, then Flash Player looks in /Library/Application Support/Macromedia So I checked my user directory and there is an mm.cfg file with 0 bytes

Location of mm.cfg is listed here [1] If mm.cfg is ok, next step is to use the command-line debugger. For AIR apps, you have to launch bin/fdb from the SDK folder, then type 'r' and return. This should cause the debugger to wait for the next runtime to launch. Then run the ads command you see

Thanks a lot for your help. I have created a new project and the same problem arises so it has nothing to do with compiler options. I created a project DebugTest and in creationComplete I've put two traces and a breakpoint. The debugger does not connect and shows: Process terminated without

Hi Fréderic, The actual debugger is the same in Flash Builder. Flash Builder has a built-in debugger that tries to connect to a debugger Flash Player in the browser, or to the Air Debug Launcher (ADL). When you Run/Debug a Desktop app in Flash Builder, I think it should always launch ADL. I

Inside the your SDK, the adl executable is used to debug AIR apps. (adl = AIR debug launcher) If nothing in your SDK changed, then it's probably related to compiler arguments or something related to building the SWF. - Josh On Tue, Jul 11, 2017 at 8:11 AM, Fréderic Cox

Thanks for the replies. The problem is related to AIR debugging on desktop. I did not change my Apache Flex SDK so I really can't understand what caused the problem. Which debugger is used for AIR and where is it located? On Tue, Jul 11, 2017 at 3:41 PM, Harbs wrote: >

As a point of clarification, are you trying to debug a desktop AIR Application or a Browser based application? You mentioned you downloaded debug players for browsers, but that you're trying to debug an AIR Desktop application. The two things should be completely unrelated, so I'm not

If you're having trouble with AIR, the Flash Player version installed shouldn't matter. Have you double checked your compiler options? You should make sure your project isn't setting -debug=false somehow. I forgot that I had done that once! - Josh On Jul 11, 2017 4:48 AM, "Fréderic Cox"
