Hi peoples,
I have a Samba Server that has had the same config for over 10 months now
(read: never had a problem).
Just today, I thought, let's Play with Flash MX, so download I did.
Start playing around, and went to test my first movie and it came up blank.
Not a flash GURU that I am, I was stumped. Anyway. Saved the flash file
to my local C:\ (Oh did I mention the WS is Win2k ;) .. and then
tested the Flash Movie, and no problems.
Tech Details:
In Flash, when you 'Test a Movie'
it creates the .swf export in the same folder.
The Share I am working from is
[htdocs]
path = /var/www/html
writable = yes
create mode = 664
directory mode = 775
force group = www
valid users = @www
delete readonly = yes
Samba version is
Version 2.2.1a
As I said, nothing has changed and I have only seen this behaviour now with
exported Flash MOvies.
What else do I know:
Testing a Movie in Flash is the same as Exporting the final product, (it
creates the same files)
So:
I Export to Movie on the samba server
and
I Export to Movie on my Local Workstation
(and tried a Networked Win2k Prof box also)
The Export to the Samba server creates a bad .swf.
It's 41k and the good working one (on the Win2k boxes is 12k)
erm.. Where to from here.
.swf files are generally served from a Browser... so
I copied a Working version (and a non-working version courtesy of Samba)
to the Local IIS Server. Expected result. The working one, worked,
the non-working .. you get the idea.
So I copied the two files to the Apache Server via Samba
and browsed to them there... same result.
A Flash movie created by saving to Samba, makes a BAD swf file.
A Flash movie created by saving to Win32 box makes a normal good movie.
So .. where do I look (and the logs below show nothing amazing).
.. (and I hear you say, what about the logs )
Weird, sugesstions (before I upgrade Samba)
This is the Whole Session of Flash MX, exporting (deleting an old flash movie
and creating a
new one, and then opening it and the closing it)
