Gmaps and Xcelsius SDK

Question

Hello Xcelsius Gurus
i've created my GMaps Component using Flex builder and it was amazing using it into my dashboard
while i'm designing the dashboard its working fine and also when i preview the dashboard its working great.
and also when i export to powerpoint its working fine as well.
but when i export my dashboard to the Enterprise to give it to the users to use, the map doesnt show
it shows this message
Initialization failed: please check the API key,swf location, version and network availability.
i checked my network and internet connection also, all are working great, at the same time i open the PPT and its working
but in infoview, its not.
any idea?
thanks
Amr

Working with Runali. The SWF file stored in a folder on the XI server and opened in a browser (where the address is the file share) works. The same SWF file exported to InfoView on same server doesn't work. We found the URL formed to connect to Google is different depending on whether the SWF is invoked by filed path versus HTTP.
Truncated URL for successful call where SWF is invoked from file share:
http://maps.googleapis.com/mapsapi/publicapi?file=flashapi&url=file%3A%2F%2F*&key=
Truncated URL for successful call where SWF is invoked from InfoView:

The component is forming the URL based on how the SWF is invoked.
