Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Builder 2 & RDS Connection problems

[Nick Collins]

I had similar problems, and what it turned out to be is that in the preferences window, under RDS configuration, the port number was set by default to the port for the standalone CF server, not one connected to another web server. I simply changed the port to port 80 and it worked.

            I had trouble with FlexBuilder 2 and RDS, when Dreamweaver MX04 and
FlexBuilder 1.5 RDS worked fine. I am using IIS6 and all my websites
use host headers. With that being the case, there was no way to
resolve the external IP, because all of the IIS websites were looking
for domain names. 

When I setup a test website in IIS without a host header, I used my
external IP to connect to RDS in FlexBuilder 2 and it connected fine.
Therefore, FlexBuilder 2 definitely wants an ip address only.

I hope this helps...I struggled with this for days.
