RSS Widget works locally but not on website

I used the RSS widget to insert the following RSS feed:
feed://www.bpkids.org/updates.xml
I have also tried inserting with http:// instead of feed:// but no difference
When I publish the site and check it on my local folder, it works. But when I post it to my website, it shows nothing.
This is the first time I've used the RSS widget. It seems straight forward enought, however, I've read in these discussions that there was a bug with the RSS widget recently that was causing it not to work and wasn't sure if this is still a problem. Thanks

That is a crossdomain issue because you have the site
accessible via www or without.
If you use
http://www.sneeple.com/media_test/index.html
to access that page it will work.
Here's what to do to fix it:

RSS Feed works locally but not live???

I have an rss feed using a class I found online to access an
rss feed. It works fine locally. When I take it online it doesn't
work. I have the crossdomain.xml file on the root of the server.
Any ideas?

a crossdomain policy file needs to be on the server that's
being accessed, so unless it's your rss feed, it won't do any good
there.
Try publishing for 'network access'.

Image loads locally but not on Website?

I have constructed a slide show viewer for use on a website.
The swf loads jpeg images which are contained in the same
directory. This works well on my local machine but when uploaded to
a website and called up by an html file, the swf runs and shows the
correct backgrounds but fails to load any jpegs. I assume that the
problem is to do with the transfer of the variable 'Select_picture"
into the loadMovie statement?
The following loop (step variable = pic_no) works locally but
not on website:-
>>var Select_picture:String="Pic"+pic_no+".jpg";
>>var Select_mc:String="mc"+pic_no;
>>
>>this.createEmptyMovieClip([Select_mc], depthnow++);
>>loadMovie([Select_picture], [Select_mc]);
In order to prove that a picture could be loaded on the
website, I simplied the code to :
>>loadMovie("pic1.jpg",[Select_mc]);
and this worked.
So, I tried to transfer the same string directly via the
variable;-
>>var Select_picture:String="Pic1.jpg";
>>
>>loadMovie([Select_picture], [Select_mc]);
But this does not work.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Dave

Thanks , Arunkkumar2207j and ggshow for your suggestions.
1, The image size isn't a problem because the one I used for
the test is only 200k. And the single test image loads very quickly
on the website.
2. I don't think the depth of the movie clip is a problem
either because depthnow starts at a very large number and is
incremented for each clip and works well for multiple clips on my
local machine. Also when loading a single image is should not be a
problem. Also, I think I proved that was working with the single
image test?
3. The htm, swf and images are in the same directory. But for
the test, I ran the swf directly on the website (without using the
htm file to load it)
Please keep the suggestions coming....!
Many thanks
Dave

cffeed caching works locally but not on server

So I got my new Hostek account set up (woohoo!) and I've started uploading some basic files so I can do thinks like validate my code and make sure everything's working. One thing that does not work (but does locally) is my news feed caching.
Pulling in two RSS feeds was seriously slowing down my index page loading, so I stole a trick from Ray Camden on caching the feeds. It works perfectly on my dev machine at home, but doesn't work on my hosted account.
Here's the exact code being used:
<cfset feedurl = "http://velonews.competitor.com/feed">
<cfset cacheTime = #createtimespan(1,0,0,0)#>
<cfif not structKeyExists(application,"rsscache") or dateDiff("n", application.rsscache.created, now()) gt cacheTime>
    <cffeed source="#feedurl#" query="entries">
    <cfset application.rsscache = structNew()>
    <cfset application.rsscache.data = entries>
    <cfset application.rsscache.created = now()>
</cfif>
<ul>
<cfloop query="#application.rsscache.data#" startrow="1" endrow="6">
<cfoutput><li><a href="#rsslink#">#title#</a></li></cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</ul>
I tried wrapping a try/catch around the top section (above the <ul>) and still got nothing for an error message. The page just stops being rendered at that first <ul>.
I'm not sure why it works locally but not on the web server. Any ideas?

Miraculously, I got it working.
I changed this:
<cfloop query="#application.rsscache.data#" startrow="1" endrow="6">
<cfoutput><li><a href="#rsslink#">#title#</a></li></cfoutput>
</cfloop>
To this:
<cfoutput maxrows="6" query="application.rsscache.data">
<li><a href="#rsslink#">#title#</a></li>
</cfoutput>
And bingo! It worked. Perhaps it's an idiosyncrasy between CF9 and CF10.

Flash site works locally but not online (uploaded to server)

We have bought a flash portfolio template and have customized it with our pictures, video, etc.
When we test it locally on our computer (using different web browsers) it all works perfectly well. We have uploaded the finished website to our server and when you go to the address online, it doesn't work (a loader progress shows but it is stopped and nothing happens).
We have however uploaded the original template we bought and it works perfectly online.
The template consists of and index.html, various .swf, and various .xml that we have modified according to the template instructions (it also contains a java script folder we haven't touched).
What is it wrong with our modified template - it works locally without problem…!
Thanks for your help

When a Flash file works locally but not on-line, it's almost always a pathing issue (provided you did upload ALL files and do not have something missing... as suggested by Ned).
A "pathing issue" results when the main .swf cannot find one or more of the associated Flash files...like an xml file or images.
It can be something as simple as using switching file names to all lower case. Local machine is not case sensative... most servers are. So "My Photo.JPG" is not the same as "my_photo.jpg". When naming files, best to use all lower case, no spaces in any file or folder names... use_underscore_instead.
But the most common cause is that those associated files (xml, images, etc.) are not pathed relative to the Web page where the main .swf is embedded. Pathing to the .xml and image files should be as though the .swf was located in the same folder as the Web page... NOT the actual location of the .swf file.
And that includes paths to the xml file and paths to image files coded into those xml files. Everything need to be coded relative to the Web page.

[AS3] EventDispatcher works locally but not remotely

Hi,
I am very new to Action Script and have the following
problem. I hope someone can point me in the right direction.
I have a small video player app. I have added the FLVPlayback
component to the stage and set some properties via action script
(AS 3)
I then instantiate a class to go and retrieve some XML,
register an eventListener to wait for the XML to be loaded and once
the event has fired, load the FLV file (just hard coded at the
moment) into the FLVPlayback object.
This works when testing in the Flash IDE but not when I
publish the movie to my webserver. I have tried commenting out the
player.load() and just adding a textfield and again this works
locally but not when I publish to the webserver. I have included
some code snippets below.
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong?
Any pointers much appreciated.
Thanks
Martin

Hi,
I found the problem if anyone has the same issue. I was
passing some FlashVars in incorrectly using the
AC_RunActiveContent.js that comes with Flash. I have switched to
swfobject and all is well.

Swf works locally, but not on server

I have an issue with an xml-driven swf file. It plays fine when I test the site locally, but not when it's uploaded to a server. Here is a link to the page. There are many posts on this and other forums describing the same problem, though I can't find the right solution. The only thing it has convinced me of, is that it is probably a pathing problem. I purchased the file online, and instead of one swf and one xml there are about ten of each to make it work. In addition to this there are about 40 .as files. (all this to make it "easier" to customize). Since I plan to use this banner rotator on multiple pages, it will be very unconvenient to upload all these files for every page I make. I checked with support for this product, and was told I could make a flash directory, only duplicating the xml-files for each new page and linking the xml back to the swf-files. Otherwise the support answer was very short and unhelpful. I have renamed every path in the xmls so that it should be right. As I said, the file works locally, so I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.
I have posted in adobe forums before, and I have alwas found helpful and kind responses.
Thank you,
Siri

They're all uploaded to the server, it is also possible for me to dowload them from there. When i run the main swf file through flash player debugger, I get this message:
Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: file:///Users/Siri/Documents/gullstolen/hjemmeside/flash/produkter/deploy/xml/abrMain.xml

So I guess it can't locate the xml folder (since it is not there), but I don't know how to change the path. I can change it in the xml, pointing to the swf, but how do I do it the other way?
This is the main xml-file:

</abrMain>
the abrMain.xml tells the swf what files it shold use, and where to find them, but where do I tell the abrMain.swf to find the xml? Maybe this is an issue for product support instead, though they only answer short and cryptic.

Facetime works local but not long distance

i have been using facetime for 2 years. Last week (soon after upgrade 8.2) my service became intermitant. it works locally, but long distances it is ringing but no one is answering...
I am using airport extreme....so not sure if its extreme or something else causing this...

chris, thanks so much but i think it has to do with port somehow.
since i am out of the us it works fine in where i am at, but trying to get to the us in just rings off the hook and no one can pickup....so it gets a notification that the call is coming through but ends at that point.....and i am just pushing voice only not video.
other people where i am at use facetime and are able to talk to people in the US...I have been doing so until 1 week ago, when i downloaded 8.2 Thanks for your reply looking forward to understanding what else i can do......
ps already installed firmware in extreme...but didn't solve the issue.

Javascript working locally but not on sever

Hello,
Since this is a javascript question I'm ont sure this is the right forum, but since I've always had great help here I thought I'd give it ago, and for all i know , it is DW related...?
So i have a website that's been online for years, which using a javascript scroller that i found online, a long while ago.
Yesterday i made some site edits, that didn't (so far as I'm aware) involve messing with any of the javascript or links to external CSS or script files, but suddenly the scroller isn't working any more.
Oddly though, it works locally in Live Design view, and in all browsers previewed locally too (usinag MAMP server)... but just not online.
Why did it suddenly stop working?
Here is al link to a stripped down version of teh problem, and i'd be grateful of any help anyone can offer:

Works locally but not remotely

Hi,
I'm loading jpegs randomly into my .fla. It works fine
locally, and it worked fine when I tested it on my personal
website. But on my company's site, the jpegs don't load. I'm
thinking maybe it's a path issue, but not sure what the fix
is...any help would be welcome.
This is the code I'm using:
randomNum = Math.round(Math.random()*15);
loadMovie(randomNum+".jpg", this.blank");
I've tried adding a path like
/graphics/flash/2007jazzfest/this.blank but it doesn't like the /.
I've tried quotes around everything, but it doesn't work...
You can see it work at:
http://www.willyurman.com/Test/jazzfest2007.html
1. click skip intro to get past the opening
2. click either small red 'jazz fest' button in the upper
right or left. It should take you to the credit page where a
different jazz quote appears at random at the bottom.
On my work site, everything works except that the quotes just
don't load.
I go live with this Friday night(the 8th) so any help would
be appreciated :)
thanks
will

comment out that code. hardcode one jpeg to load and test.
does that work?
if yes, copy and paste the code that works and copy and paste
the code that fails.
if not, your path may be wrong or your jpegs may be
corrupted. to check which, enter the path/file name of one of the
jpegs in your browser window. if it loads, the path in your swf is
wrong. if it doesn't load you may have the wrong path in your
browser and in flash, or your jpg is corrupt.

Spry Horizontal menu works locally but not online.

Hi people I built a site in Dreamwever CS5.5 and used a spry widget menu. It works great in firefox when I run it locally, but when I try to access a page from the online server it's rubbish. I've uploaded all of the JS files a couple of times and even copied some to multiple locations but still no joy. Any advice would be appreciated, the website is to promote a very noble cause. website is www.stopthetoad.com.au

Hi Gramps,
Thanks for your help, from the look of the previous posts on this forum
you may need to change your name to Altruistic Guru.
This is actually a site that my 14 years old daughter (Jessica) has put
together and I'm very proud of her for the effort that she is giving in
her own time without possibility of reward (other than having our native
species survive another generation).
Any further advice you can offer will go a long way towards getting
those feral toads out of our country.
We've upload all files via cuteftp, Dreamweaver and even manually 1 file
at a time!
But it still wont work. When we try to load a page we get a series of
messages such as
SpryMenu.js requires SpryWidget.js
SpryMenuBarKeyNavigationPlugin.js requires SpryMenu.js!
All of the files that the messages refer to have been uploaded several
times but we still get the messages.
The spry Ui-1.7 folder with all relevanr folders/files is in my
public_html folder on the server. Should I move all of the Spry folders
contents into the public_html folder or somewhere else?
I expected Dreamweaver to do all of this for her perfectly, we must have
gone wrong somewhere.
This is a screenshot of the cuteftp screen showing all of the files in
the public_html folder. You'll notice that I've copied some spry files
into this folder also (will this cause problems)
Kind regards,

Azure SQL database working locally but not when published to Azure

I have an
AngularJS solution that is connecting to a SQL Azure database. When
I run the solution locally, it’s configured to connect up to the SQL Azure database, the solution works fine. However,
when I publish the solution to Azure the connection to the SQL Azure database does not work.
When debugging with Chrome I get the error Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server
Error)
I'm not using EF. but dapper.
My connectionstring is as follows
<add name="PortalConnection" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" connectionString="Server=tcp:xxx.database.windows.net,1433;Database=xxx;User ID="xxx";Password="xxx";Trusted_Connection=False;Encrypt=True;Connection
Timeout=30;"/>
When I run the web solution locally from Visual Studio, my sql queries runs like it should, it's only the published version having problems.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Thanks for answer.
I had followed that step by step guide for deploying to Windows Azure. So that was not the problem.
But I was able to get a better error message by turning off custom error in web.config.
I got the error message: "Windows login are not supported in this version of SQL Server"
I solved this by using the SqlConnectionStringBuilder instead of getting the connection string from
web.config.
So everything works great now, just think it's strange it worked locally before..

Found a fix for lightbox working locally but not on site!

This was reply origionally but I felt I should post it. It seems to be a common problem and I was unable to find a resolution so here it is....
I found a fix for something similar that occurred on my machine. I too was seeing no problems locally but when I posted it to my site, it just had the placeholder and no images....
Apparently, dreamweaver is smarter than the browser... (maybe incorrect statement) however..... the file extensions are case sensitive!
I had this-------- <A href="Img/CGM_1.JPG" border="0" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]" title="CGM Pic Set"><img src="Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG" /></a>
<a href="Img/CGM_2.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
                  <a href="Img/CGM_3.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
                  <a href="Img/CGM_4.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
Well, I didnt think anything was so bad, all of the colors were right I wasn't getting any warnings.... wtf?
As it turns out, and this is only because I just started a new image set after testing an individual - - baby steps - - if you use the properties bar at the bottom of DW, it applies a different case for specific parts...... i.e. this is what it produced
<A HREF="Img/CGM_1.jpg" border="0" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]" title="CGM Pic Set"><img src="Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg" /></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_2.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_3.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_4.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
Notice the HREF's are now UPPER case and the jpg's are now lower case. !!!! really?!?!?
Also, another thing to look out for is the folder/ in front of your thumbnail; make sure it is there. In my case I use my sam "Img" folder, not the "images" folder that lightbox creates.
Hope this helps, I beat my head against the wall for a total of 10 hours over 2 days trying to figure this out. I couldn't find anything on the internet. I'm going to post this so others having this issue get it resolved. I found those, just no resolution.

Thanks for your quick response
I tried what you said and I still had no avail...
There is a style.css file in the root directory but for some reason you cant access it...
I checked the file permissions of style.css and they are: 644
Its really wierd - I dont understand why it isnt reading...
Also regarding {www.care.cc} all of my clients websites are under the same web hosting service, so he set the default "404 page not found" redirects to {www.care.cc} which is their "Main Site" as such - I understand that this is bad practice but unfortunatley I have no control over these matters as I have limited access too my clients web hosting.
Thanks again for the Help

Shared Object working locally but not online

My game records your high score using the sharedobject and while testing it locally it works fine, but when the swf is published and played online, it is not recording the hi score. Is there some sort of new security issue with saving shared objects on people's hard drives now?

In Frame 1 I have this code. The first is for game progress, the second is for the high score which is then passed to the text object
var Progress:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("progress", "/");
var OwlHiScore:SharedObject = SharedObject.getLocal("owlhiscore", "/");
hisc.mainScore.text = (OwlHiScore.data.HiScore).toString();
Then on the last frame where the game is over I have this code:
if (score > OwlHiScore.data.HiScore) {
          hiScoreWon = true;
OwlHiScore.data.HiScore = score;
OwlHiScore.flush();
          hiScoreHolder.hiScoreEffect.mainScore.text = (OwlHiScore.data.HiScore).toString();
} else {
          hiScoreWon = false;

Webservice works locally but not public

I have read a lot about this on the net about crossdomain.xml
and how to make it work with webservices. But still have have some
problem with it.
I have a domainname i'm using and my router is forwarding the
traffic from that domain name to my local server 192.168.1.3 which
is my local server ip.
From my local computer the WS works great, but if i try from
a remote location it does'nt.. at first i got the security access
remote url error msg. but i guess the crossdomain.xml fixed it.
So right now it does'nt return anything when trying from a
remote location.
If i use firefox, the statusbar states it's connected to
192.168.1.3. that's it. i wounder why it does not say it's
connected to the domainname i defined in the mx:webservice.
btw i added this in my crossdomain file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "
http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="*" />
</cross-domain-policy>
I use fault="Alert.show(event.fault.faultString) in
mx:operation but that does not return anything.
so i need a hint to what to do, how to trace the
error.

1: ntsiii yes i can see the wsdl. and it works from my laptop
when i run it from flexbuilder.
2: because the result is output in a datagrid. And it works
when i run the WS from flexbuilder on a local computer.
but can you confirm that it should not be a problem that the
ip defined in the wsdl file is not a problem since it's
192.168.1.3?
