Problems accessing flash files

i have a swf file on my website when i put a link to it and click

dex.cgi ?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
i have 10 installed i dont see the problem i had this problem before and
can not remember how to fix it.

Hi, It appears the message you received has to do with Shockwave Player, not Flash Player. You may want to start a thread on the Flash forum. You could also search that forum to see if there are any threads similar to the problem you are having.

Problems Accessing Local Files

Hi,
I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I'm havign problems accessing a file on the target machine's local filesystem. I've signed all my jars and added the all-permissions tag to the jnlp file. However, my code:
ClassLoader cl = getClass().getClassLoader();
InputStream is = cl.getResourceAsStream("c:/resources/testsuite.xml");
fails to find the file "testsuite.xml".
Is this a classpath issue? I've tried to add c:/resources to the class path but with no luck.
any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

Try "file://c:/resources/testsuite.xml" instead. I
believe you are suppose to be passing in a valid URL
and what you passed in wasn't.That's wrong. Resource name should be just a path. It could be a full path started from "/" or just a relative path from given class (here better to use this.class.getResourceAsStream() method).
Better yet, since you are giving full security access
to the user's local machine you don't really need to
rely on the class loader at all. It's just a normal
file, so you could create your File object and read it
in the way you do normally. I would suggest to do not rely on File object at all because it can only be dealing with local file system and thats can't be changed in future.

Problem with Flash file in IE

Hello Everyone,
I have a strange problem and I'm not sure exactly what it is.
I have a 1.5 Joomla site with this module in it
<object height="20" width="1035">
<param name="movie" value="LEDDisplayTicker-1040.swf" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param value="high" name="quality" /> <embed height="20" width="1035" wmode="transparent" src="LEDDisplayTicker-1040.swf"></embed> </object>
The site works fine in Chrome, FireFox and Safari but when it is viewed with IE I get an error and the page closes ( you have to surf through a few pages).
I know it is the above module because if I turn it off, the site works fine in IE.
The flash file imports and displays info from an XML file and the XML file reads from google finance.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Todd

Problems accessing Music Files in Slideshow module in LR 2.6 and Windows 7 64 bit

     Just got new computer 64 bit Windows 7. Installed LR 2.6 and am having problem with slideshow and music. Never had this problem before with my XP computer. When I open up slideshow module and go to Playback window and check soundtrack and try to choose a music folder, I have a new problem. It opens up "Browse for Files & Folders" dialog box as usual, but it only lets me browse on my desktop or my User name on the C drive. My music is in my F drive where my data is stored. I've never had a problem accessing my music in my F drive in my XP computer, but this setup limits where I can browse to. Interesetingly, this works OK in LR 3 beta on this WIndows 7 PC where it opens up a dialog box "Choose a music file to play" which gives me access to all my drives. In summary, I can't access music files stored on a drive other than my C drive using LR 2.6 on a Windows 7 64 bit computer.
     I have attached a screen shot to compare the new Windows 7 Browse for Files & Folders dialog box to that in my XP computer.
     Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Matthew Kraus

Thanks for the reply. I went through the process you suggested to change Ownership & grant permission to access files. When I get to the owner tab in Advanced Security Settings....I am already the current owner of this folder.
What do I do now?
Thanks,

Problems accessing parameters, files - problems in general.

I've been posting my problems to comp.lang.java.programmer but Google Groups is exceedingly slow to update and I've been stuck on this for nearly two whole days:
I am developing what will be a series of web utilities for our company and our client's company. Unfortunately I am hampered by the fact that my Java is not that good having come from a C++ background.
My current setup is Windows XP, JDK 1.3.1.07 (which is what our client is running), Tomcat 4.1 for testing on my local box.
I've been middling around with small examples and decided to do something slightly more complex. What I am trying to do is access a file that is described in web.xml as a parameter. However when ever I run the program it is unable to find the file. All the documentation I have (web-based plus a Professional Java Server Programming J2EE Edition - way over my head) either skims across it/takes it as read it will be set up correctly/doesn't touch it at all.
I thought I was trying to access the wrong directory so I mapped the file to the root of C and still can't access it - it always comes back as null. Also between attempts I restart the Tomcat server so it always loads in the web.xml file.
This is my web.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
    PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
    "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<display-name>Welcome to Tomcat</display-name>
<description>
     Welcome to Tomcat
</description>
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>LogIn</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>website.LogIn</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>passwordFile</param-name>
      <param-value>C:\\passwords.txt</param-value>
    </init-param>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>LogIn</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/logged</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>And the Java:
package website;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
* Handles the login to the administrators section of the website
public class LogIn extends HttpServlet
    private String passwordFile;
    /** Read the password file from the location specified
     * by the passwordFile initialization parameter.
    public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException
        super.init(config);
        passwordFile = config.getInitParameter("passwordFile");
        System.out.println(passwordFile);
        if (passwordFile == null)
            System.out.println("The \"passwordFile\" property must be set to a file name");
        try
        catch (Exception e)
            System.out.println("Error: Unable to read passwordFile.");
    public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
}It was suggested on comp.lang.java.programmer to check the path that the system was thinking I was searching which I did by inserting this code fragment:
     // initialise the servlet and load password(s)
//     super.init(config);
//     passwordFile = config.getInitParameter("passwordFile");
     // added code
     passwordFile = "passwords.txt";
     File f = new File( passwordFile );
     System.out.println( f.getAbsolutePath() );
     // added code.
        ...This lead me to learn that the directory being returned was:
C:Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\passwordFile.txt
Which is strange since I would of thought that the lowest directory
that is visible to the class would of been ROOT (hence it's name).
Does this mean if I copy the passwordFile.txt to the above directory
it would work? Actually no. I still can't get the filename as a
parameter from web.xml which is frustrating. If you could give me any
pointers on what might be wrong then that would be cool.
I thought I could move forward by accessing the file directly. But no: An addition of f.exists() to check that the file exists returns false. I've now got a copy of passwords.txt in every single directory from the classes directory all the way down to C:\ and it still doesn't work.
I hope someone can help out here since this is very frustrating to be stuck on something so basic as file handling.

I can see how this is frustrating but it should be fixable. The last example you posted won't work because you have "passwords.txt" instead of "c:/passwords.txt".
If you're still looking for a solution could you cut and paste the following code into your servlet code and then post the results?
// Check that init param is read correctly
String filename = config.getInitParameter("passwordfile");
System.out.println("config param = " + filename);
// try filenames
String[] filenames = new String[] {"c:/passwords.txt", "c:\\passwords.txt", "passwords.txt"};
for (int i=0; i < filenames.length; ++i) {
   File file = new File(filenames);
System.out.println("File " + filenames[i] + " - exists = " + file.exists());
System.out.println("Abs path = " + file.getAbsolutePath());
This is based on the file c:\passwords.txt existing - if I have the wrong filename, please adjust. Also, you may need to change <i> to [[i]i] in a couple of places.

Alignment problem in flash file while viewing in IE 7

hi,
When i try to view the Xcelsisus Dashboard flash file from the BOBJ Enterprise server, some objects in the flash objects get aligned incorrectly. But when i view the flash file from Xcelsius>Export to flash, ther is no such mis-alignment..
Is there any way to fix it ?
Or Is ther any way of making it to view in a fixed size in the BOBJ server ?
Or Is ther any way of loading html file (which have embed flash file) in the BOBJ server ?

Hi joshman,
no I didn't get error messages as the relevant lines for reading/writing where between try statements, but you were where right it was/is just a simple path problem.
I expected the refering directory without using a path to be the directory where the servlet is in, but it is not !!??
Do you know if I set this in the setclasspath.bat of tomcat ?
*** set JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS=%BASEDIR%\bin;%BASEDIR%\common\lib ***
thanks again

Problems opening flash file- Please Help!!

I have Flash CS4. I'm having problems opening a specific file. Its about 239,000 KB. Sometimes it opens partially, I can open movie clips and scrub through the time line and see my keyframes. The problem is that it wont display my movie clip keyframes in the viewing window. The flash dialog giving you options to open previous files is there instead. It doesnt go away. My friend can open the exact same file on his computer in Flash just fine (he has the same computer as me) Also, I have hardware acceleration settings turned to 'NONE'. Does anyone have any ideas what this could be?
Thanks!
Catie

hardware acceleration should be on and you might want to re-install Flash CS4 again.

Help: Problems accessing XML file in WebSphere 3.5 Fix Pack 4 on Solaris

We are having an emergent issue with WebSphere 3. 5 Fix Pack 4 on Solaris 2.6: The WAR file we deployed fails with runtime exception due to the inability
to access a local resource(XML file) in the converted WAR file's web directory.
The way we access this XML file is as follows:
ServletContext theCon = getServletContext();
URL u = theCon.getResource ("/web/test.xml");
String newPath = u.toExternalForm ();
InputStream is = new URL (newPath).openStream();
The InputStream returned from the URL object is NULL.
After checked the URL's externalForm string, we noticed that its protocol part is "classloader", e.g. the whole URL string is like "classloader:/opt/...../web/test.xml". However, if we replaced "classloader" with "file", the problem disappeared and the XML file can be read without error.
Anybody know why "classloader:" in the URL string cause this problem, and what is the solution without changing the URL string?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Can you try to replace the two last lines with:InputStream is = new FileInputStream (u.getFile());Hope this helps,
Kurt.

Problem accessing a file from URL connection

My swing application uses a file(5MB).
I tried to open an inputStrem to this file using following codes:
URL u = new URL("http://..../myfile.jat");
URLConnection uconn = u.openConnection();
InputStream iin = uconn.getInputStream();
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(iin);
System.out.println(iin.available());
But it gives me available number of bytes sometimes 6761 and sometimes
1711. But I need the available # of bytes to be equal to 5B.
can anybody tell me how I can do that?
thanks

I think this got posted in the wrong forum, but at any rate: the "available()" method tells you how much data is available to be read at this instant. As soon as you read that data, more data will become available. Write a loop that reads repeatedly until there is no more data available.

Accessing Serialized Files randomly.

I have a problem accessing serailized files randomly. I am using ObjectOutputStream to write objects to a file. I am using the ObjectInputStream to read the objects from the file. Both of these work fine if the order in which i Write objects is the same as the order in which I read Objects. But I need to skip few objects when reading objects from the file. I know API states that the order of writing and reading should be the same. But still is there any way where i can read serailized objects ramdomly form the file.
Please help me with this it is very impritant of the project. We are trying to store tuples in the file. We are going to build an index over these tuples and then read the tuple that we need.
Thankyou,
Nishant

You could wrap the ObjectOutputStream around a ByteArrayOutputStream to first serialize an object to a byte[] and then save that into a RandomAccessFile.
The trick is to be able to tell where in the file each serialized object starts. Possibilities include:
1) If your objects are known to serialize to a fixed size (or if there is a reasonable max size of the serialized object), you could pad each byte[] "record" you write to the file (eg, each object always uses 1K bytes). Then you can easily read back the i'th object byte[] and deserialize it.
2) Design into your RandomAccessFile a "directory" section that keeps track of each stored object and it's starting byte address in the file.
If the file needs to hold an arbitrary # of objects, the directory could support a special entry pointing to a "next" directory section later in the file.

How Can I Get A Flash Movie to Access Local Files

I have a customer that has created a Flash movie to run off a CD. The movie is basically a set of menus with links to access local files in the same directory as the movie. i.e. Main folder (to be root of CD) has the movie, a Documents folder with PDFs, a Movie folder with wmv and mov files, etc.
The problem arrises when you click on a link to a file, a web browser is launched, and the browser tries to display the target file. The movie was designed on a Windows system, and, mostly it works in a Windows environment, however, the links totally crap out on a Mac because the URLs are pc centric.
He is a rookie flash programmer so I am trying to help him set up proper links to the files, so that the files will (hopefully) launch the proper local app and not a web browers. i.e. if the link points to a PDF, the Adobe Reader is launched; if the link is to a mov file, then QuickTime is launched....
Is there a way to do this? All the tutorials I have found all seem to expect the flash movie to be running on a web server, and as such do not work when running the movie off a CD.
Any help or suggestions would be grealy appreciated.
A response ASAP would also be greatly appreciated as the customer needs to deliver 200 CDs of the project for a presentation tomorrow morning - I have to create the CDs...
TIA

Problem with corrupted images in flash file

Hey people, i've been searching around and this is the best place I could find to post th
is.
I was wondering if there was anyone out there who could help me with some corrupted files.
Apparently its a random error where when saving some images may not save properly, I originally saved the file in CS3 and am now working on it where I only have CS4 and 5 available to me.
The file can open in CS5 but not CS4 for some reason however there are certain scenes containing certain symbols which obviously haven't saved properly and so are missing and "corrupted"
I also copied the original SWFs from testing and the symbols which are corrupted just show up as red shapes in those as well.
I am unable to save the file due to these symbols causing it to crash when saving in any available formats and unable to delete the corrupted files as when I attempt to access them flash crashes as well
I was wondering if there's anyone who would be able to access the file or even anyone willing to attempt to solve the problem as I am on a deadline of a week after christmas and am worried I may not be able to complete it by then with these problems.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
(Also I have no idea how to attach the files if anyone can tell me how it would be great or I could upload them elsewhere and post a link)

Create a URLRequest object with the URL of your image. Pipe
that URLRequest into a new Loader Object. When the Loader Object
finished loading (add an Event.COMPLETE-Listener to the loader for
that), you are free to do whatever you want with that Loader. Maybe
you'll want to draw it in a BitmapData-Object and then go
on.

Denying end users access to a flash file

Hi everyone,
I'm working on a project that I'm hoping to get some help
with, I'm very new to flash. I need a way to steam a flash video to
a users browser, without the file actualy being downloaded onto the
users computer. Basicly my company wants to sell views to some of
the courses we offer implimented in flash. We need to restrict the
user to accessing the flash file once, which I can do, but the part
that i'm not sure about is if a copy of it will always end up on
the users computer.
Sorry if this is not an appropriate place for this question,
but I was hopeing somone might have some insight.
Thanks!

Hi,
did you maintain entries in SM30 BCOS_CUST
You have to have the following entry in your satellite system BCOS_CUST view.
OSS_MSG
W
<Your RFC Destination to SOLMAN>
CUST620
1.0
then you'll be able to create a support message.
Also create BPs in SOLMAN, using DSWP -->Edit --> Create Business Partners.
Select your system and date somewhere back dated all the endusers in your satellite system will be populated select the users and create BPs.
You don't have to worry about end user authorization.
This will solve your problem.
Feel free to revert back.
