Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 2 Beta - Wrong Flash Player Version?

2006-03-17 Thread Jordan Snyder



Ahhh but one question.  I did not, to my knowledge, install a different player.  I work with Flash and Flex all day, every day, and it's very odd that something slipped under the radar.  I've heard a bit about an autoupdate feature in the Flash player...is it possible that my player just got the most recent "release" version of the player, which effectively downgraded me?  

 
Any ideas on how this actually happened, and how I might prevent it in the future?

I had read the prior description but wasn't sure what the question was and so passed onto other matters. Your post above doesn't help me turn the description into an answerable question either. 
Maybe it's something like "What could happen if I install this week's 8.0x Player above my 8.5 beta Player?" or "If I blew away my 8.5 with a new 8.0x then how can I get the beta back?" One answer along these 
general lines is that the uninstaller is now required to remove the new version-locked Player. I'm not sure whether this is the core question though.Have you checked the technotes listed in my original blog entry on the

[flexcoders] Flex Builder 2 Beta - Wrong Flash Player Version?

2006-03-15 Thread Jordan Snyder
I searched the list and didn't come up with anything helpful.

I'm using Flex Builder 2 Beta, full-on install with the Flex
framework, and I installed player 8.5 along with it.

I've been using it for a while now, but last night I went to build a
project, and suddenly I got an error telling me that I had player
version 8,0,24,... and I obviously need 8,5.  I have since uninstalled
and reinstalled the Flex Builder (and Player 8.5 with it, again). 
I've also downloaded and run the standalone installers(ActiveX and
API) for Player 8.5, to no avail.  I still get the same error when
trying to build my project, and the compiled SWF won't display in my
browser.

Has anyone had this or a similar problem?  Tis very weird.


Cheers
