CS3 All Buttons give error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null

Using CS3 actionscript all buttons give the following code. I
have tried it myself and used the examples with CS3 and on
livedocs.
Here is the button code:*************************
import fl.controls.Button;
var myButton:Button = new Button();
myButton.toggle = true;
myButton.move(10, 10);
myButton.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeHandler);
addChild(myButton);
function changeHandler(event:Event):void {
trace("Button toggled (selected:" +
event.currentTarget.selected + ")");
**************Error ***************************
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/addChildAt()
at
fl.controls::BaseButton/fl.controls:BaseButton::drawBackground()
at fl.controls::LabelButton/fl.controls:LabelButton::draw()
at fl.controls::Button/fl.controls:Button::draw()
at fl.core::UIComponent/::callLaterDispatcher()
Button toggled (selected:true)
Can anyone help me with correcting this problem. I can't find
it by googling, searching livedocs, help, etc.

Thanks that worked. I didn't add other components directly to
the library, just called them in the actionscript. Do you know why
the button would be different?

UIComponent+Button=TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.

I have created a super-simple Flash Component, -just a Button and TextArea together. These are both placed in 'assets' layer frame 2, with avatar in Frame 1, etc, and tied this to an ActionScript3 class, TestComponent.
When I use this component, in say, Tester.fla, I get the following error,
TestComponent1 Constructor called
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.
    at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/addChildAt()
    at fl.controls::BaseButton/drawBackground()
    at fl.controls::LabelButton/draw()
    at fl.controls::Button/draw()
    at fl.core::UIComponent/callLaterDispatcher()
If I include the 'Button' in Tester.fla library, the error goes away. But I don't have to do this for the TestArea.
It appears that 'Button' need special treatment in Flash. I have seen this question asked several times before in different ways, and never answered.
I would appreciate some explanation for this strange behavior, or if I designed my TestComponent incorrectly, then please advise on the correct design.
Thanks

click file/publish settings/flash and tick "permit debugging".   retest. if you're lucky the line number of the problematic line of code will be in your error message.

TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.

Hello,
I am new to actionscript 3.0, I have Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 installed and I am creating a ActionScript project (File -> New -> ActionScript Project) named as Test. As you know flash builder does not include fl.controls package by default. I have added this package to my project as source path or swc file so that I can use the default components (e.g. Buttons, RadioButtons, Checkboxes) and now I am writing the following code.
package
          import flash.display.Sprite;
          import fl.controls.Button;
          [SWF(width = "640", height = "480", frameRate = "60", backgroundColor = "#FFFFFF")]
          public class Test extends Sprite
                         private var btn:Button;
       public function Test()
                              btn = new Button();
                              btn.label = "CLICK ME!";
                              btn.x = 100;
                              btn.y = 100;
               addChild(btn);
I am creating a fl.controls.Button instance in Test class and trying to add it on stage. When I run the project, it always gives me the following error for the bold red line.
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.

I know you are talking about Flash Builder but the same has to be true of Flash Builder as far as having the objects that go with the classes, especially if they are the objects that Flash Pro utilizes.
I do not use Flash Builder so I can't answer from experience how you go about getting the components into the library. What I normally do to find answers to desgn issues is to start looking thru Google.
If I search Google using the terms "Flash Builder use AS3 components" I get several results that might provide a solution. Here's one...
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5602962/getting-flash-ui-components-into-builder
See if the answer for that one works for you, and if not, try some of the others in that search's results.

This error means that you are trying to set the text field but there is no data in the variable. As a first step, try to identify where this is happening, eg Is it the first call, or once you have submitted your data or only if you try to submit data second time?
Trace out the data that is returned for both completeHandlers to see if there is a missing var. Try this for "load_numbers" and "store_choice". Do it twice for "store_choice". Do you get back what you expected?
You could also try altering the php to return some fixed dummy variables, eg choice1Count=11&choice2Count=22&choice3Count=33, etc. If this works then you know that the error is in the PHP.
It looks to me like the issue is when you submit the data a second time and just get back the return_msg - the handler then tries to assign the choice1Count etc but doesn't have any count data back from the poll.php.
Test that there is data before assigning it, eg
 if(event.target.data.choice1Count){
 count1_txt.text = event.target.data.choice1Count;
 count2_txt.text = event.target.data.choice2Count;
 count3_txt.text = event.target.data.choice3Count;

The code I say to add is to troubleshoot the problem, it will not solve it, but it could help lead to solving it if the file is able to compile. Does the trace show up in your output panel? If so, what does it indicate?
You should also go into your Flash section of the Publish Settings and select the option to Permit Debugging... that can help by adding a line number to the error message.
What is the 'door' object that is associated with the 'back' object? Does it exist in a frame that is not present when you try to run the file? If so, check to make sure that it has its instance name assigned in every keyframe it occupies.

TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null

I am new to AS period, but I am following some training videos for AS 3.0 to create a portfolio site where the images and text are loaded by xml.
I have followed the instructions to the letter; however I am getting the #2007 Parameter text must be not-null error.
I have pasted my code below:
var titleArray:Array = new Array();
var descriptionArray:Array = new Array();
var largeImageArray:Array = new Array();
var thumbnailImageArray:Array = new Array();
var imageNum:Number=0;
var totalImages:Number;
//XML

var XMLURLLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
XMLURLLoader.load(new URLRequest("assets/portfolio/portfolio.xml"));
XMLURLLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);
function processXML(event:Event):void {
var theXMLData:XML=new XML(XMLURLLoader.data);
totalImages=theXMLData.title.length();
for (var i:Number = 0; i < totalImages; i++) {
titleArray.push(theXMLData.title[i]);
descriptionArray.push(theXMLData.description[i]);
largeImageArray.push(theXMLData.largeImage[i]);
thumbnailImageArray.push(theXMLData.thumbImage[i]);
loadThumbnail();
myScrollPane.source=allThumbnails;
//LOAD THE THUMBNAILS
function loadThumbnail():void {
trace(imageNum);
var thumbLoader:Loader = new Loader();
thumbLoader.load(new URLRequest(thumbnailImageArray[imageNum]));
thumbLoader.x = 90*imageNum;
//stores the appropriate info for thumbnail
var thisLargeImage:String = largeImageArray[imageNum];
var thisTitle:String = titleArray[imageNum];
var thisDescription:String = descriptionArray[imageNum];
thumbLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, thumbLoaded);
function thumbLoaded(event:Event):void {
//add the thumbnails to the allThumbnails instance
allThumbnails.addChild(thumbLoader);
allThumbnails.buttonMode = true;
myScrollPane.update();
thumbLoader.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadMainImage1);
function loadMainImage1(event:MouseEvent):void {
largeUILoader.source=thisLargeImage;
selectedTitle.text=thisTitle;
selectedDesc.text=thisDescription;
//add to imageNum (1);
imageNum++;
if (imageNum<totalImages) {
loadThumbnail();
I know my error has something to do with this part of the code:
//stores the appropriate info for thumbnail
var thisLargeImage:String = largeImageArray[imageNum];
var thisTitle:String = titleArray[imageNum];
var thisDescription:String = descriptionArray[imageNum];
but I can't figure out what's wrong. When I test my movie, everything functions correctly except when I click on a different thumbnail, the proper description does not load. My xml file is set up correctly. Here is a bit of that code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

</portfolio>
The only thing different with my xml code is that in the tutorial I am following, the <description></description> tags are on the outside of the CDATA tags (which I have seen examples of both)... but when I put the code that way, it causes breaks in my code at the first special character I use.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Jen

click file/publish settings/flash and tick "permit debugging". retest. the line number with the non-existant object will be in the error message.

trace(event.currentTarget.name); //shows the right name
event.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, ("f_"+title+"Go") as Function);
event.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, ("f_"+title+"Display")as Function );
the second trace() in this code shows exactly what I wanted but a 2007 error occurs at the line of the code.
Can someone help me figure this out?

I mean get that function out of the loop altogether... there can only be one function, where the variables used remain as variables, so when you start using it, the value of "i" at that time will be 5 (where the loop ended). It does not remember a specific value of i for each object you ran thru the loop.
for (var i=0; i<=4; i++)
 sensors[i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,s_thClick);
function s_thClick(event:MouseEvent):void
 var sensor = event.currentTarget; // might need to be... = MovieClip(event.currentTarget)
 var titleLength:int = sensor.name.indexOf("S");
 var title:String = sensor.name.slice(0,titleLength);
sensor.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, ("f_"+title+"Go") as Function);
sensor.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, ("f_"+title+"Display")as Function );

I have comment box project. As3+php based project.And have #2007 Error.Try to fix but can't do anything.If can help it would be very helpful.Error part like this:

 mysql_free_result($sql);
 mysql_close();

?>

use the trace function to debug:
function completeHandler(event:Event):void{
 processing_mc.visible = false;
 name_txt.text = "";
 msg_txt.text = "";
 status_txt.text = event.target.data.return_msg;
 gbOutput_txt.condenseWhite = true;
trace("::"+event.target.data.returnBody+"::");
 gbOutput_txt.htmlText=""+event.target.data.returnBody;
// and then initialize $body outside those if-statements or ensure you're sending an appropriate comType variable and value.
// right now it doesn't look like you're even sending comType with varSend.
// ie, you must assign the urlrequest data property AFTER urlvariable variables/values are assigned.

AIR for IOS, ApplicationDomain problem: Error #2007: Parameter Possible symbol clash in multiple swf

I am exporting a game for IOS in Flash CS6.
I have isolated classes, except a framework for static utilities that do not clash, but I still get this message when exporting for IOS.
AIR for desktop, even with ApplicationDomain.currentDomain works and does not give any error. Same on android.
When I export the same exact project for IOS, it triggers that error randomly in different parts.
All related with a call to a method on superclass, the instantiation of an internal class, or of a Vector typed to a custom internal class.
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter Possible symbol clash in multiple swfs, abcenv must be non-null.
The line that triggers the error:
return new RouletteChoserItemDev(num, data);
Any help is appreciated.
UPDATE
I have changed the code into:
var item:RouletteChoserItemDev;
var MyClass:Class = RouletteChoserItemDev;
item = new MyClass(num, data);
Now I get this funny error:
Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert device.plugins.rouletteLobby::RouletteChoserItemDev@6284bc9 to .
Yes, cannot convert to ".", a dot!

*FOUND A SOLUTION*
The way ApplicationDomain.sameDomain works on Android and Desktop, and on IOS, IS DIFFERENT!!!
I probably have to file this under AIR bugs.
Anyway:
- In loaded SWFs, classes which are not already stored in parent SWF CANNOT be instantiated.
I.E.
var c:MyClass = new MyClass(); // Will not work
var c = new MyClass(); // Will not work
var c:MyClass = getDefinitionByName("fullpackage.MyClass"); // Will not work
var c = getDefinitionByName("fullpackage.MyClass"); // WORKS!!!!!
var c:DisplayItem = getDefinitionByName("fullpackage.MyClass"); // WORKS!!!!!
So, it seems that classes stored in local loaded SWF will not be accessible directly. Even though tracing it trace(MyClass) works well, the class cannot be used in code in any place. Variables cannot be typed, and class can only be instantiated with getDefinitionByName();
All this, is true ONLY on IOS, same exact project and settings, will not trigger any error in AIR for Desktop or for Android.
But since obviously we use the same codebase for all devices, this IOS *feature* has to guide the way we code, even though we break a few important OOP best practices.
Hope I spared someone else the 3 days including an entire weekend I had to invest to find this out.

ITunes new version doesn't open at all. Gives error message

I downloaded 7.4.3 version of iTunes and it doesn't open at all. Gives error message. "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close."
I have previous version of iTunes in my spare HD, in the same computer, and it works perfectly fine.
I have unistalled and re-installed again and again many times including with the help of Apple Support help in the phone and came up with no clues of what's going on.
How can I get a previous version of iTunes to download to my PC? I have looking for a place on Apple's website where I could probably have my issue resolved, but I found nothing.
Thank you.

Thanks to Jim Zack, the problem is solved.

SHOW ALL / HIDE ALL BUTTONS produce error in chm but not in "View Selected Item"

My SHOW ALL and HIDE ALL buttons work in the View Selected
Item mode. However, the compiled version generates an error tag:
Line: 72
Char: 1
Error: Object expected
Code: 0
URL:
mk:@MSITSTORE:C\Documents%20and%20Settings\glenn_michaels\RoboHelp%206.0\TCA\!SSL!
In short, the the compiled chm is located in the SSL. I tried
adding showhide.js and ehlpDhtm.js to the SSL folder, but that
didn't make a difference. What is missing? How do I fix this?
Many thanks in advance...
glennito

Mr. Grainge,
I've tried to follow your instructions to the letter, but I'm
not having any luck.
1) I copied the showhide.js to
a) RoboHelp 6.0 > Project Folder
b) RoboHelp 6.0 > Project Folder > SSL
c) RoboHelp 6.0 > Project Folder > SSL >
MicroSoft_HTML_Help
2) I pasted btnhideall.gif, btnshowall.gif, printerblue.gif
into
a) RoboHelp 6.0 > Project Folder > SSL
b) they are also listed in RoboHelp 6.0 > Project Folder
3)The Project Manager > Baggage File originally displayed
a
a) Project (Name) folder
b) ehelp.xml
c) RoboHHre.Ing
I opened the Baggage File > Project (Name) folder,
selected New Baggage File, and added, respectively:
i. btnhideall.gif
ii. btnshowall.gif
iii. ehlpDhtm.js
iv. printerblue.gif
v. printerred.gif
vi. showhide.js
vii. TCA.fpj
vii. root.fpj
4) I also opened rhbag.apj in Notepad. It shows
a) ehelp.xml and RoboHHRE.Ing accompanied by
<usercreated>false</usercreated> tags
b) the remaining baggage files are accomanied by
<usercreated>true</usercreated> tags
5) Finally, I used Notepad to display two topic files in
which the error message identified a Line: XX. In one case the line
# is 42, in another, 19. In both cases, when I counted lines,
starting with <body>, I ended up on:
onClick="JavaScript:hideEm()"
However, I am none the wiser for my effort and don't know
what (5) might be telling me.
6) The only thing I can think of is that the compiled chm
file is two levels away from the Project Name directory that holds
all the files. The files live in Robohelp 6.0 > Project Name
while the compiled help is found in Robohelp 6.0 > Project Name
> SSL! > MicroSoft_HTML_Help > Project Name.chm.
Should I be adjusting the Relative Path within the topics?
Many thanks for your attention and assistance.

AP Invoice Approval- Approve button gives error

Hi all,
    I work on oracle applications 11.5.10 and we have modified the AP Invoice approval workflow APINV to send mail notifications to approver.
    The mail is sent to a approver mail address in Microsoft outlook web app as intended. But when the approver clicks on APPROVE or REJECT button, we get an error as below.
     I could see all the listener agents are up and running. Could anyone please shed some light on this issue.
Error:
Your request couldn't be completed.
This may have occurred for security reasons or because your session timed out.
Thanks,
