Flash player cannot connect to debugger

Hi,
for a few months the flex debugger has worked fine, now the
other day, suddenly, the flash player can't connect anymore to the
debugger.
I downloaded the latest version of the debugger again,
installed it, rebooted, but still the same problem.
I've not made any changes to the -debug.html reference.
Anyone an idea ?
grtz,
B

UPDATE #2:
I figured out MY problem...
I edited the html-template file index.template.html and the
debugger needs the default code to work correctly.
I changed it to use ufo.js to insert the flash content
instead of the default AC_OETags.js file, which I guess is required
to make the debugger work.
I'm not sure about the exact differences in these two
approaches, but I'm sure it's nothing that couldn't be fixed with a
little effort and some javascript knowledge.
The one thing that is kinda bad, is that if Flex Builder
can't connect to the flex app, it just sits there and does nothing
- and you can't build the app again until it times out, or you
close FB, whichever comes first. I think that either the timeout
should be shorter, or you should be able to cancel it
somehow.

  • Flash Player not connecting to debugger

    Hello everyone,
    I'm trying to debug ex2_02, but the debugger isn't working properly. Whenever I go to debug the application, the progress stops at 57% an says it is waiting for Flash Player to connect to the debugger. Eventually it will time out and launch the application with debugging. I have Flash Player Debugger installed. Does anyone know of a solution to my problem?

    I have not had your exact problem, but I have had problems when installing the debug version of Flash player after installing Flash Builder. Did you install the debug version of Flash player when you isntalled Flash Builder or did you do it seperately? Also, which browser are you using to test?

  • "Waiting for Adobe Flash Player to connect to debugger..."

    Having an issue where after installing 10.1 debug build and then stepping back to 10.0 debug on Windows 7 and Flash Builder 4 the debugger will no longer connect:
    http://content.screencast.com/users/IvanSlepchenko/folders/Jing/media/206aa0ea-4c5c-43e6-9 7f2-2f8f58df25ea/2010-05-13_1522.png
    After 1-2 minutes it times out with Launch Failed: Failed to connect; session timed out.  Esnure that: 1. You compiled your Flash application with debugging on.  2. You are running the debugger version of Flash Player.
    Any thoughts on what may be happening here?  Nothing else has changed and after searching for quite a while for answers nothing has resolved the issue.

    I am also struggling with this issue.

    Both Flex Builder 3 and FLash Builder 4 (trial) do this to me.

  • Cannot Connect to Debugger - re-post

    Hi All,
    Now that some of the Adobe engineers are back from their annual summer vacations, I'm hoping that someone can help me with this matter.  I originally posted this 8 days ago, however only 12 people even viewed the post, with no responses at all.
    I have  recently been stung by the 'cannot connect to debugger' problem.   Everything was fine 2 days ago, as it had been for the past 8 months.  Then  yesterday I had a 'hard crash' while programming in FB 4 (standard  edition) on Win 7.  I literally was typing some code when the dev  environment 'stopped working'.  I eventually shut down the process and  such.  Upon re-opening FB, things were mostly fine - it even saved my  most recent keystrokes.  However...
    Today, when I tried to  debug (on Firefox 3.6 with Flash 10.1) it would not work.  So, I  upgrated to 10.3, both the 'regular' and then the debugger versions of the  plug-ins.  I tried to debug (a simple, 'hello world' type application)  and it will not work.  I have shut-down FB, I have re-booted, I have  checked my Hosts file... nothing.  I even just upgraded to FireFox  5...same result - 'cannot connect to debugger'.
    I  researched this for hours now.  I guess 'many' people have had the  'cannot connect to debugger' problem over the past few years.  I have  tried the 127.0.0.1 trick - still cannot connect.   I have confirmed  that the 'debugger version' is running inside Firefox because when I  right-click on the app (when not trying to debug) I *do* see the 'Show  Redraw Regions' option (which only shows up if running the debugger  version of the plug-in).
    I am trying to avoid dozens of  wasted hours, re-installing, re-booting, knocking head against wall -  things that others have done over the years.  Does anyone have a magic,  voo-doo trick I can try to get this running again?  It was all fine 2  days ago!  I am not sure if the issue is related to the 'hard crash'  that FB had 2 days ago, but the timing is right, so it probably did.  I  just don't know what else to check... For a simple, 1 file application  ("hello world" with 1 line of AS code to serve as the breakpoint), it  should just work, and there is not much to configure, right?
    Thanks in advance...
    -David

    The "solution" (if you'd call it that) called for me uninstalling FlashBuilder itself, then re-installing it.  I had previously un-installed the FlashPlayer (debugger version) on both IE and FireFox several times, both with and without the Tech Support guy in India watching me.  None of that helped.  It is hard to understand (since there is so much to know) how FlashBuilder itself could have been 'corrupted' somehow (likely some text/ini/config file somewhere) to the point of disabling the ability to connect to the debugger... but, whatever.  At least I can debug again.

  • Adobe Flash Player cannot work on IE 9 after installation or updates

    Because many users creating new bugs for the same problem with Internet Explorer 9
    Here is the solution:
    https://blogs.adobe.com/cnflash/2011/09/23/adobe-flash-player-cannot-work-on-ie-9-after-in stallation-or-updates/

    From last 1 week I'm facing an issue with flash player. Each time when I enable Shockwave Flash Object 11.1.102.55 add-on in IE9 it does not allow to load the page and show a message to recover the page and even sometimes browser got crashes. When I disable the Shockwave Flash Object 11.1.102.55 page loaded without flash and works fine.
    I have installed Google Chrome and flash is working fine in Google Chrome browser but I need IE9 as most of my application IE9 supporting.
    My system configuration is as follows
    - OS : Windows Vista 32 Bit with SP2
    - Browser : IE 9
    - Antivirus: Kaspersky Internet Security
    Below are some steps which I have taken to resolve this issue but no success:
    - Uninstalled the IE 9 and found the same issue in IE 8
    - Enable the ActiveX filter but after that page works fine but flash image will not display
    Kindly let me know if you required any log files or information to solve this issue. I need help from adobe to solve my system problem. I have considered above steps also given by you but no use. I have log an issue with https://bugbase.adobe.com/ but not get proper response.
    Below is my bugbase with adobe but there is proper response.

  • Need Flash Player that connects 2 FMS2

    Hello
    I have set up a Flash Media Server 2.04. It is up and
    running.
    I need a Flash Player like the flowplayer to connect to the
    FMS2. I am going to build the player into a php file.
    I know many of you are able to write the player by themselve,
    but I need a version that is fully tested and working. I am also
    willed to pay money.
    I found the flowplayer at
    http://flowplayer.sourceforge.net/howto.html,
    it describes that it is able to handle fms2 but it is not able to
    play the movie. Why do i know? I downloaded the the test suite form
    http://blogs.adobe.com/dreaming/2006/11/fms_resource_center.html
    and tested the fms with taht and it worked out.
    Therefore I need a player that works.
    Please report me some links or send me a pm to

    Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
    If you do a search on this forum you will find hundreds of other threads on the subject.

  • Flash Player not connecting in Chrome

    I have the latest version of Google Chrome and Flash Player works fine for videos etc. But when I try to start a chat / instant message on various sites, the pop up box appears and then displays an error message saying the connection has failed. No such problems on IE. I've tried reloading both Chrome and Flash Player but no luck sorting this problem.

    Google embeds Flash Player into Chrome, if you have a problem with embedded Flash Player in Chrome, contact Google.

  • Blu Ray player cannot connect to Gateway with airport extreme

    I have a Samsung bluray player which is plugged into an airport express. The blu ray cannot find the gateway and cannot connect to the internet. The same airport express is also used as airtunes and works just fine on the network. How do I find the correct gateway information to enter?

    Temporarily, turn off the wireless on a laptop and connect the laptop to the AirPort Express using an Ethernet cable. Can the laptop get an Internet connection?
    If yes, the BluRay player should auto configure itself the same way to connect.
    If no, the Express is not delivering an Internet connection at the Ethernet port and more troubleshooting will be required before you can connect the BluRay player.

  • Flash Player allows connection to the Media Server while a browser works offline

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Run Internet Explorer or Firefox browser
    2. Go to
    http://www.salesforce.com/company/
    this page contains a flash component that shows a video from the
    Media Server
    3. Close the browser
    4. Run the browser and switch it to work offline
    5. Go to
    http://www.salesforce.com/company/
    again
    Actual Results:
    The browser loads all the media from the cache, but flash
    component establishes connection to Media Server and downloads a
    video via RTMP.
    Expected Results:
    Due to the browser works offline the flash player component
    should not connect to Media Server.
    Can somebody confirm?
    Is this a bug or the feature?

    Is there anything different being done in the second report as compared to the first one? Have you tried other browsers to access the report and see if the behaviour is different?
    Perhaps you can first ensure using a reports developer client to render the report connecting to the same database as the server.
    Other option is to set trace on on the reports server and check if any exceptions in Oracle Reports server are causing the behaviour.

  • Stage3d will always fall back to software mode when using flash player 11.6 content debugger

    I just update my flash player and air sdk to 3.6. My game is being developing using starling. And after update was complete, weired things happened. First,it would always fall back to software mode when debugging with content debugger. I just couldn't get to the gpu mode with content debugger! Second, when I run my game with IE 10 with flash player 11.6, some transparent black skins becomes transparent white skins!!!! That drives me crazy!  Surely there are lots of bugs with the release of flash player 11.6 for windows 8!

  • Nevjoy - flash player problem connecting

    Hi , I have a Dell Dimension 3000 computer with Windows XP and up until the end of 2010 I had no problems installing and running Adobe Flash player . However after 2011 I have tried to install Adobe Flash Player 10.2 but whatever I have tried through the problem helpline I still keep getting the message -The active X Control could not be registered- even although the Flash Player is installed. Since that problem I have upgraded the RAM to 2GB which has made a vast improvement to the speed but made no difference to the Flash Player .
    Hope you dan help.

    I don't know what you have tried before, so I can only recommed to try http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/494/cpsid_49419.html
