Flash 10.1.53.64 - no flashlog.txt logging

Configuration:
Windows XP SP3 x86
FlashDevelop IDE 3.2.1
Flex SDK 3.5.0.12683
Browsers: Firefox 3.6.4 (with Firebug and Flashbug) and IE8
Flash Player Debugger 10.1.53.64
Issue Overview:
Since upgrading from the debug player 10.0.45.2 to the latest 10.1.53.64, I've found that my trace statements are no long written to flashlog.txt from either Firefox or IE. No logs are written, which is a pretty big deal during development.
Consider that it does affect the players in both browsers. I do have mm.cfg configured correctly as per the KB instructions (no change was required, although I did experiment). I am indeed compiling in debug mode. It's not a Flashbug issue as flashlog.txt never gets updated.
Research:
I wasn't able to find much of anything in my searching. There was maybe one blog post with comments suggesting a similar issue with a 10.1RC, but didn't offer up any solutions (I hadn't been developing with the RCs). Also, I couldn't find a relevant entry in the Flash Player bug tracker.
Workaround?
For the time being, I am forced to revert back to 10.0.45.2 which worked immediately. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Hey guys,
Logging is working on my OS X box again, but only in Firefox, not Chrome.
Unsure if all the recent updates fixed it, or if reading this is what
helped.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=logging_04.html
Here's what I learned, but unsure if it helped.
- Flash player looks for mm.cfg in the user's home directory first (
/Users/yourusername/ ), and then /Library/Appliations Support/Macromedia/
I was previously messing with mm.cfg in
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/Macromedia
- The path to flashlog.txt is now HARD CODED, and not configurable. If you
are on OS X, you should find your flashlog.txt file
at /Users/username/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/logs.
So for any OS X-ers have this problem, here's my setup.
- /Users/ericfickes/mm.cfg
ErrorReportingEnable=1
TraceOutputFileEnable=1
- My log file appears at
/Users/ericfickes/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/Logs
Hope this helps.

Flashlog.txt not logging

I can't seem to get any logging in flashlog.txt. I've read through both articles:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/193/tn_19323.html
http://yourpalmark.com/2005/07/01/trace-from-the-browser-using-standard-trace/
My home in XP is H:\.
So currently I have the flashlog.txt file here: H:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\Logs
mm.cfg is here: H:\Documents and Settings\(username)
mm.cfg contains:
TraceOutputFileEnable=1
ErrorReportingEnable=1
MaxWarnings=0
What could the issue be?

Did you setup mm.cfg to log trace statements?

Need help in creating a 'Generic txt log' monitor

Hi
We require some help in creating a 'Generic txt log' monitor.
In a txt-log a system is writing log-entries of a job.
When the job is running successfully, the entries is like this:
First line: CRM VISMA Import - Start of job execution
Second line: CRM VISMA Import - Job execution finished
When the job is NOT running successfully, the entries are like:
First line: CRM VISMA Import - Start of job execution
Second line <this could be anything>
So, how to we create a monitor that trigger an alert if
First line = "CRM VISMA Import - Start of job execution"
and second line is NOT "CRM VISMA Import - Job execution finished"
And closing the alert if the entries are once again gets:
First line: CRM VISMA Import - Start of job execution
Second line: CRM VISMA Import - Job execution finished
Thanks in advance
/Peter

You may consider using script monitor, below is the coding of script section:
Assumption: the file is stored in c:\temp\AppLog.txx. You should modify the file path for your own situation
Dim oAPI, oBag
dim strComputer, objWMIService, PerfProcess,Perf, PerfPro
Dim PerfMems,PerfMem,Mem
Set oAPI=CreateObect("MOM.ScriptAPI")
Set oBag=oAPI.CreatePropertyBag()
Set objFileToRead = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").OpenTextFile("C:\temp\AppLog.txt",1)
Dim strLine,PreLine
Dim jobFail
JobFail=false
do while not objFileToRead.AtEndOfStream
strLine = objFileToRead.ReadLine()
if PreLine<>"" then
            if strLine<>"CRM VISMA Import - Job execution finished" then
               JobFail=true
            else
               JobFail=false
            end if
            PreLine=""
         end if
if strLine="CRM VISMA Import - Start of job execution" then
    PreLine=strLine
end if
loop
objFileToRead.Close
Set objFileToRead = Nothing
If JobFail then
Call oBag.AddValue("JobFail", "Yes")
else
Call oBag.AddValue("JobFail", "NO")
end if
Call OAPI.Reten(oBag)

FlashPlayer 10.1.x Not Logging to flashlog.txt Solution

I seems like that beginning with FlashPlayer 10.1.x (debug version), flash is looking for mm.cfg file in the following location on windows
%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%.
You should be able get these values by executing following in a command window
echo %HOMEDRIVE% e.g. Z:
echo %HOMEPATH% e.g. \
You should have a mm.cfg file at this location and this file should contain something similar to the following:
ErrorReportingEnable = 1
TraceOutputFileEnable = 1
MaxWarnings = 100
As mentioned in Adobe's documentation, the name of the log file is now hard coded and for windows 7 it is:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\Logs\flashlog.txt

Well, I'm seeing inconsistent behavior when I go back to some of these troubling flash sites. I'm running multiple browser sessions with the same config. but using different profiles, and some sessions play the flash differently from others! I'm still investigating. But 10.1.102.64 still has a killer problem that I noticed with the earlier releases. In one browser session, flask grabs the hardware audio device while playing flash, but it does not release it when you navigate away from the page containing the flash content. This means that audio is now unavailable to any other browser session until the original browser is killed. This does not happen with the 10.0 version. (Note: my audio device cannot mutliplex multiple audio input streams, so if the device is busy, a second process cannot attach.) If anyone from the development team is reading this, please report this as a bug and investigate what change was made between versions 10.0 and 10.1. Thnaks.

Can I generate .txt / .log file from Oracle Diagnostic Logging?

Hi all,
on my application I need to limit the size of application log, I've read this [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25221_04/web.1013/b14432/logadmin.htm#CHDJHHHB|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25221_04/web.1013/b14432/logadmin.htm#CHDJHHHB] that using ODL, but generated file is .xml, but I need .log / .txt file. How can I do this??
thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kahlil

ODL generates log files in XML format only. Using ODL you can not have plain text format log files. You have to decide what is more desired - log rotation (that ODL provides) or text format (which is the default, non-ODL, format). If text format is more desired than don't enable ODL and write your own shell script to rotate application log (but that can only be done while OC4J is down).
At the same time if you are concern about readability of log file (i.e. text format is easier to read vs. xml format) than you might consider using one the log viewer tool (log viewer in EM or printlogs command line) provided by Oracle. Both of these tools help you view the logs in much more readable format than just looking at xml format log file.
(printlogs utility is under $OH/diagnostic/bin directory. Run "printlogs -help" to read about it).
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Air.trace() not working

Hi all,
Someone had a similar problem here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/750219?tstart=0 They managed to solve it, I started adding to post but thought it best to start a brand new post.
I've tried what they've suggested and made a file called mm.cfg in my %HomeDrive%%HomePath% directory (c:\users\james) the contents of which are:
     ErrorReportingEnable=1
     TraceOutputFileEnable=1

I'm running Vista and I'm using AIRSDK 2.5. I call my hello world application from the command prompt with " adl HelloWorld-app.xml " I get a window of correct dimensions with " Hello World!

Flash player version 11.7 doesn't breaks FLV playback

Hello,
Since the last 11.7 update, with chrome and ff on win 7, the FLV vidéo in a AS2 player don't work. I tested on many computers.
http://asp-gb.secure-zone.net/v2/index.jsp?id=1879/2428/6978&lng=en&startPage=7
Click on the picture with the play button. Video will show up playing but with no sound, and after 7.2 sec it stops alone, play pause won't make it start, only the seek can un-break it.
So 2 PB :
-no sound
-stop after few seconds
I'm a flash dev. I looked for error, nothing in the flashlog.txt. When i trace the time property on an enterframe, it shows the progress until the time freezes.
When installing flash player 11.6 or an older version, everything works so it's definitly this version's fault.
We have tons of hosted videos online and our customers begin harrasing us with this problem, please provide a solution (new release maybe I can dream)
Please at least run some test and acknoledge the problem so we can communicate to our client.
best regards

Hi,
No news since I created the bug, it is still unverified. I worked all monday to try some workaround without success.
We decided that we can't do anything for the moment so we completely rely on Adobe for the continuity of our service.
The worse is that the same video player class, executed in another context in the same webapp manage to keep the netstream going. It seems that some conditions trigger the playback problems.

Trace(); Flash 11; and mm.cfg

I've tried a few things now, but I can't seem to get any trace output to a log file from either the Flash Player in my browser, or the separate Projector player.
Here's my details:
Flash browser plugin version: 11.1 (debugger version)
Flash Projector: 11.1 (debugger version)
OS: MacOS 10.6.8
mm.cfg:
ErrorReportingEnable=1
TraceOutputFileEnable=1
MaxWarnings=500
Places where mm.cfg was saved and tested:
/Users/jens/mm.cfg
/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mm.cfg
/Users/jens/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mm.cfg
With these settings as they are, I expect text to appear in the default flashlog.txt file here:
/Users/jens/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/Logs/flashlog.txt
This file does exist. It's empty, by default, and it remains empty even after I run a little test program which works fine otherwise...
package
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.TextField;
[SWF(width="640", height="480", backgroundColor="#cccccc")]
public class HelloWorld extends Sprite
    public function HelloWorld()
      var textField:TextField = new TextField();
      textField.text = "Hello World";
      addChild(textField);
      trace("Hello World");
If I delete the flashlog.txt file, and run it again, a new flashlog.txt file is created, but is still empty. If I specify a different log file by adding the following line to my mm.cfg, the custom log file isn't even created. If I create a blank log file, and run my swf file again, it remains empty.
TraceOutputFileName=/Users/jens/tmp/flashlog.txt
The above file name is valid and tested and has liberal read/write permissions.
Any suggestions left? Any reply at all will be appreciated!
Jens.

With the mm.cfg file in my home directory, it works, it took a few tries, but it works. Thanks

Backward compatibility of MS Flash object in Windows 8

I have a case opened with Microsoft from Pfizer, Inc and need a case open with Adobe so that the MS engineers can communicate with Adobe within non-disclosure constraints.
What MS needs from Adobe are debugging information the don't have in order to resolve the issue in their Win8 Flash object (15x). MS will need to share with Adobe details and data that belong to Pfizer hence need to open that channel for those purposes and for MS to request technical information from Adobe.
My MS case number is 114111712050982 so that you have that information and can share email addresses and phone numbers privately with Flash technical support.
I have picked the best fit I could find for a community

As a general rule, we'd highly recommend that everyone move from fscommand to ExternalInterface. It's a superior replacement and eliminates some of the weird quirks that fscommand has. In your situation, changes to IE11 caused backwards compatibility problems with fscommand, but ExternalInterface is unaffected. We have some work in the pipeline to address the issue on IE11, but it has the potential to break existing content on configs that currently work, so we're trying to be really methodical about providing public pre-releases and soliciting feedback. In 2014, the only high-traffic content that really uses fscommand are old enterprise applications, so it's hard for us to collect feedback or gauge the impact directly by looking at popular sites.
We just handed a build off with the proposed fscommand changes to Microsoft for inclusion in the next Windows 10 technical preview. We were soliciting feedback on any related fallout for Windows 7 users on our beta channel (http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta); however, there's not a good way to provide a beta build for Windows 8 since Flash Player is a built-in component of IE. We're working with Microsoft to establish a beta program for Flash Player in IE on Win8+. If you have access to the Win10 Technical Preview builds, we'd encourage you to test any of your legacy systems that require Flash and give us feedback once the next update is available.
The fact that introducing a proxy solves the problem intermittently is interesting. I guess it could be some internal timing, or it might be that the proxy is masking a cross-domain policy issue or an SSL negotiation problem. Have you guys tried with a Debugger version of Flash Player? You might get some useful feedback, particularly if it's a policy file thing.
Adobe Flash Player - Downloads
Configure the debugger version of Flash Player
You can turn on policy file logging by adding these to your mm.cfg. They'll get logged to flashlog.txt:
PolicyFileLog=1 # Enables policy file logging
PolicyFileLogAppend=1 # Optional; do not clear log at startup

Profiler stopped once intstalling flash player debug 10.1

Hey
Any idea on anybody why profiler stopped working after i added the flashplayer 10.1 ?
I can debug the flash builder project but when i try to use profiler builder says Unable to connect to the application to fetch profile data.
how can i fix this?

Below are the details of what i'm being experiencing:
Issue:
1. no flashlog.txt generated when running application in flash player 10.1* debugger in both IE and FF/Chrome.
2. I can see that when I heat profile, mm.cfg gets edited with apropriate line that is path to profile agent.
3. Also if there are exception, they are thrown in all the browsers, so I definitely have debugger version.
4. Finally, when trying to profile the error "Unable to connect to application to fetch profile data...".
Configurations:
1. my profiler agent folder path is in trusted location in "Global Security Settings panel".
2. I've tried also to cancel this configuration, still get the same profiler error.
3. my computer is in the domain but no special configurations, i.e.: mm.cfg is in local users folder "C:\Documents and Settings\[my user name]". My desktop is set to default location: "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop" in registry.
4. My system has only one network adapter that is configured by DHCP, i.e.: default configuration.
5. My system was upgraded to SP3 just to check if it solves the problem, but with no results as you can understand
System: Win XP SP3
Player Version: WIN 10,1,53,64
Debug: YES
Rolling back to Flashplayer 10.45.2 soves the problem!!!

Strange Flash version error

I installed the player debugger and I am getting this error:
Warning: An ActionScript 1.0/2.0 SWF file has loaded an ActionScript 3.0 SWF; code in the ActionScript 3.0 SWF will not run.
in the flashlog.txt file
I have validated that I am exporting with ActionScript 3.0 as the publish settings
Why would I be still getting this message?

you have an as1/as2 swf that's loading an as3 swf.
if you think that's not true, upload your swfs to a server and post a link to the html that embeds your main swf.

Can't Install Flash for Firefox

I was prompted today by Firefox to install the latest version of Flash. Unfortunately, the installer says I have insufficient permissions for the file C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32.dll. As I understand it, that would mean I don't have administrative permissions, but I do. I am on the only account on this computer, an administrator account.
I downloaded the uninstaller to try to start fresh. It uninstalled successfully, but when I tried to install, I get the same error. Now I have no flash at all for Firefox.
I tried to use IE instead, and that worked perfectly. I can view flash content in IE now fine. Unfortunately, I guess I have to install it for Firefox separately, because I still can't view flash content in Firefox.
I am using the latest version of Firefox on Windows 7 64 bit. Does anyone have any idea what to do?

alliaphagist wrote:
NPSWF32.dll has a modified date of 7/17/2009.
That sounds quite old! Can I assume that all other files in that folder are newer?
Can you try the following:
open a Command Prompt (Start | Run | type cmd )
in the Command Prompt window type this sequence of commands
cd \
cd Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
regsvr32 /u NPSWF32.dll
exit
(You can copy and paste, or type everything in just lowercase characters.)
Next open Windows Explorer, go to C:Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash and delete NPSWF32.dll (also install.txt, as it is probably also old).
If you cannot delete that file, what error message do you get?
P.S. there should be no web browsers running when you do all the above.
P.P.S. see next post...
