Air Application Install Segfaults [ubuntu 8.10]
Hi all,
I'm having trouble installing AIR applications, the AIR
install finished ok but as soon as I install an application the
window disappears if I'm using the GUI and running "Adobe
Application Installer" from the command line just shows that it's
segfaulting..
Anyone have any bright ideas, I'm running the stock version
of ubuntu 8.10 (32 bit)
Cheers,
Ian.
OK, I've found a workaround: I can run some AIR apps with adl
from the AIR SDK as described here --
http://www.flashinthepan.ca/computer-tips/linux-computer-tips/adobe-air-on-gentoo-linux
Some apps (notably Queued) still segfault during
initialization, and I've been told by an engineer at sitepen.com
that this is due to a missing or corrupt ELS (encrypted local
store), and they are trying to figure out a workaround for it.
Hope this helps.

Uninstall air application on linux (ubuntu)
Hi, maybe this is a stupid question, but I can't figure out
how to uninstall an air application on linux.
Can you help me?You can uninstall an installed AIR application (on all
operating system) by double-clicking the .air file used to install
it. The AIR application installer includes an option for
uninstalling an installed application.
On Linux, you can also use a package manager (such as
Synaptec Package Manager) to remove installed applications. -
AIR application installed but not executing
Hi All,
I have created one AIR application and compile and packaged
using Flex 3.
Till packaging everything goes fine but when i install the
application nothing appears on my screen.
Looking into the processes running in the Window Task Manager
it shows the application's exe running.
Please Help.
Thanks in advance.Alot of times while developing air applications, we tend to
forget that we are actually dealing desktop visibility and
usability while clicking the ticks and such in Flash and well,
flex, you just have to code it in.
If you feel that your application works fine in mac and not
in windows, its probably cos you have some code which is only mac
compatible.
My guess is that you set the NativeWindow.visible to false,
it will still appear on your dock waiting for you to reactivate..
This is unlike in Windows where it will be just running in the
background until activated or visible is set back to true. There
would be no way to see the app in Windows and in Mac, clicking on
the dock would bring it back alive
Thats my guess, keep this post updated, I would like to know
the result too.
Thanks

AIR Application Install Location
I have an application that has a tomcat backend and an AIR UI. I have a bat file that starts the tomcat server and I would also like that bat file to start the AIR UI so that a user does not have to click two icons to run the application. I want to be able to start the AIR application in the same bat file but to be able to do that I need to know where it is installed. Is it possible to get the install location from the installer? I know it is possible to get the install location when the application is started.
As a note this was posted in the Flex forum previously.If you look into the installation log (.airappinstall.log in user's home directory. You do need to create this file before installation),
you can find the line:
Destination for Installed application is: XXXXX
You should be able to get the location.

Ours is simple application with flash loaded on web identifies air application installed or not. If installed, files will be downloaded through air application.
Action script code uses http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/browserapi/air.swf to idetify air app installed or not clients desktop
Today upgraged to 11.6.602.168 flash player, _air.getApplicationVersion(appId, pubId, versionDetectCallback) version detect callback always returns null.
How this should be fixedOs windows 7, Firefox 19 and Safari 5.0 fails to work.
Chrome 24 works fine
Here is the code snippet
public function LaunchAirApplication()
var _loader:Loader = new Loader();
var loaderContext:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
loaderContext.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, onInit);

_loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete);
_loader.load(new URLRequest("http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/browserapi/air.swf"), loaderContext);
* This function identifies air after loading from standard site and gets application version
* @param - event: Event object
private function onInit(event:Event):void{
_air = event.target.content;
if (_air.getStatus() == 'installed'){
_air.getApplicationVersion(appId, pubId, versionDetectCallback);
else{
ExternalInterface.call("airAppInstalled", 0, null);
* This function detects air app is already installed or not
* @param - version: version of air app
private function versionDetectCallback(version:String):void{
if (version==null){
ExternalInterface.call("airAppInstalled", 0, version);
else{
ExternalInterface.call("airAppInstalled", 1, version);

I will report the bug in bugbase.adobe.com. A quick help is appreciated as our customers are affected because of this. -
How do I share resources between two Android Air Applications
I have two air applications installed on Android 2.2. What I want to do is load App2.swf into a movieclip in App1.swf.
Is this possible?
If I include App2.swf in the APK all works fine. But what I want to do is either load it from a second application folder or from /sdcard/dropbox/App2.swf
My load command var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("file://sdcard/dropbox/App2.swf"); // But it doesn't work !!!Try loading a text file instead of a swf and see if that works? That will tell you if you have the correct path or not.
The swf may not work because of security issues. Attach some error event handlers and see what they say - do you get a security error or a file-not-found error?
I've never tried loading off the SD card, but some useful paths to use are here:

AIR applications will not install on Super OS (Ubuntu 9.04) 32-bit
I was able to install Adobe Air on my system fine, but no
AIR apps will install. Anything I try to install, it just pops up a window for a millisecond and refuses to install. If I download an AIR app, the AIR app installer pops up and gives the option to open or save and I can't install apps either way.
Thanks for any help,
Rob SteelHey Rob
Thanks for reporting the issue. In order for us to find out the cause of the behaviour you see on you system we would like you to provide some more information.
1. Execute the following from terminal: touch ~/.airappinstall.log
2. Try to install the air app and provide us the contents of this file.
In case the contents of the log file is empty, try installing the app from command line:
Adobe\ AIR\ Application\ Installer /path/to/AIR/file.air
If there is a crash, can you provide us the crash log generated.
Thanks for your time

Blue screen of death while installing any Adobe Air application
Whenever I try to install an Air application I get a Blue Screen and then my system restarts.
I cannot even take a screenshot of it.
This happens with every air application I try to install.
I also searched for the same on Adobe forums and found the same problem being faced by someone else.
His problem was resolved by uninstalling a software named "Folder Lock".
I searched my hard disk for this software and found one, so I deleted that software (shift+delete) and removed all it's traces from registry too but that still doesn't solved the problem.
I also tried disabling the antivirus software and then install the air application but this also didn't helped.
I was able to install air applications earlier, but now I can't.
Anybody having same sort of problem. One colleague of mine is also having the same problem.
Please help me out.
My system's config is as follows:
Windows XP Home sp3
Flash Builder 4, with SDK 4.1, 3.5 installed in it.
Adobe Air v 2.5
1.5 GB RAM
1.66 MHz processor
ThanksHello chris,
Thank you for taking out your time to solve my problem.
I did all the steps mentioned in that link i.e. installed folder lock and uninstalled it from it's options only.
But it didn't solve my problem.
Here is the screenshot of the Blue Screen Of Death that I was presented while the application was being installed.
The BSOD appeared while the application install progress is shown to the end user.
I hope this will help you get more insight of the issue.

Afterwards, I try to install the warcraftlogs.air application, and when I execute the program I get the following error:
Se ha producido algún error al intentar instalar esta aplicación. Instale la versión más reciente de Adobe AIR desde http://www.adobe.com/go/getair_es y vuelva a intentarlo.
Translated it should be something like this (this is not the official English message):
Some error has occurred while trying to install this application. Install the latest Adobe AIR version from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair_es and try again.
I've tried to search anything related, because I can't find that exact error message in any Adobe troubleshooting page, but everything I can find is a really old version issue, or something I've tried without success (trying to install everything running as administrator, also via cmd.exe ran as administrator, installing an older version, uninstalling and installing 100 times Adobe AIR, etc.).
I've also searched (but not asked) in Warcraft Logs forums for any solution, but I couldn't find anything related either.
Any help would be appreciated.

Error installing AIR application jledwardianadventcalendar.air
Hi,
I'm trying to install an AIR application but keep receiving the error message:
"Sorry, an error has occured."
"The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author."
I've uninstalled and reinstalled AIR.
The installation log file follows:

Any help in 'decoding' this installation error message and guidance for a resolution is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
MarkI don't have an answer, just wanted to share your frustration. I'm running Windows Vista on a Toshiba Satellite with 40+GB free hard disk space and 2GB RAM so space is not the problem. All updates have been made.
My AIR log shows the identical error info. I have requested help from the application's author, which first suggested it was Firefox causing the problem, but downloading from Chrome and IE made no difference. Nor did reinstalling AIR. A friend was able to download this app with no problem. And I was able to download the other (somewhat smaller) JL app with no problem, which really seems strange.
Hoping someone here with more tech knowledge might be able to offer a suggestion. If I get a helpful reply from the app author, I'll be sure to share it. -
Adobe AIR Application won't install
Also, tried reinistalling latest version of Adobe AIR but a message appears saying that the latest version of Adobe AIR is already installed, even though I thought I had unistalled it with the help of Microsoft Fix it (i.e. it no longer appeared in the least of programs installed on the computer).
I am using a Samsung laptop with Windows 7.
Following my latest attempt to install the application, I located the Adobe AIR log:

This immediately caused a prompting of an update to Adobe AIR, which I ran. It seems that the Adobe AIR application installation package contained an older version of Adobe AIR than was already installed within the 'Common Files' folder, and this apparently led to the error (sorry, I cannot explain it any more technical terms than that!).

AIR runtime and AIR applications built using Captive Runtime still need Admin Privilege to Install
I am working on a small project to install AIR application(native .exe & .dmg) with AIR runtime without needing the Administrator privilege so I used Captive runtime but the installation is still asking for admin privilege
I bundled AIR application with AIR runtime using Captive runtime from flash builder 4.6, then I packaged this into a .MSI using Advanced Installer. Now when I install it for a user without admin privilege it prompts me for Admin credentials.
Can you please tell me if
1. I need AIR distribution license to install AIR runtime without Admin privilege
2. Do I need a different installer
3. Am I missing any step here
Thank youIf you're installing to a location where Windows requires elevated privileges, like Program Files, you'll need to have admin privileges to continue. Are you using an AIR based native installer or have you taken the application with the captive runtime and rolled this up in your own installer?
Here's a section from the Installation and deployment options in Adobe AIR 3 article that might help:
Installation privileges
When designing an installer, one has the option to choose from approaches that may or may not require administrative privilege. For example, a drag-and-drop install on Mac OS X requires no special privilege; users can always copy the application into their own application folders, for which they have the necessary permissions. On the other hand, if registry keys must be written to the machine-specific portion of the registry on Windows, installation of that application will require administrative privilege to do so.
The two installer formats directly supported by AIR, AIR files and native installers, have always required administrative privilege. This was a design decision made in part to simplify the implementation of the AIR installers: If administrative privilege is assumed to be available, implementation is possible if the registry can be written to, and so on. It was also selected because, in many enterprises, this is the desired behavior: administrators can use the privilege requirement to gate software installation.
All the same, there are scenarios where supporting installation without requiring administrative privileges is desirable, or even necessary. This can now be achieved using custom installers; you simply need to author an installer that operates correctly with only standard user privilege. In practice this can be easy to achieve; a simple install-by-copy to a writable location (that is, in the user's own folder) will suffice. Should you author a more complex installer, you should keep in mind that the addition of certain operations during the install process will in turn reintroduce the requirement for administrative privileges. -
How do i update Installed AIR Applications? // General Questions
Hi,
first of all, i'm completly new to AIR. However, i made my way through your product documentation and i'm now able to deploy AIR and a AIR Application (SFDC Chatter) and register it.
Works fine so far, but some questions:
- How can i update installed AIR applications? If i just try to re-install it, the installer will fail with exit code "9"
-> How can i update them directly? If this is not possible
-> How can i uninstall AIR applications in a large enterprise environment?
- Where is the ARH Tool that is described in your product documentation?
- When installing AIR as SYSTEM User (I'm using SCCM) where is the logfile?
- Do you recommend updating AIR on a regular base? Are "older" applications compatible with newer AIR Versions?
Thanks for your replies!
BenHi Ben,
I'd recommend taking a good look at our captive runtime option that is available in AIR 3.0 and higher. While you have to roll your own installer (and updater) this could be as simple as a zip/batch file combination. It also allows you to use the runtime that you prefer and not be dependent on what the user installs or uninstalls. You do have to be mindful of security implications, but it's definitely the way I'd go.

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WSfffb011ac560372f709e16db131e43659b9-8000.html
As for updating, it should be as simple as increasing your app descriptors version number and installing again. This article explains how you can also use our update framework: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air_update_framework.html
The ARH tool can be found here:
