Thanks for posting this easy to follow tutorial. Now if only I can get it to work…

I’m using

Flash MX 2004
Visual Studio 2005
FluorineFX from fluorinefx.com (the fluorine.thesilentgroup.com address in your tutorial forwards here).
I installed both the MX 2004 for ActionScript 1 and for ActionScript 2 modules.

I tried the tutorial a couple of ways.

The first time in VS2005 I created the c# web app (which I named "FluorineTest1")
using Fluorine’s "FluorineFx ASP.NET Web Site" template
(their site calls it the wizard) which creates the web.config, Gateway.aspx, etc, for you.

The "httpModules" section in web.config is different from the tutorial however, the module is:

<add name="FluorineGateway" type="FluorineFx.FluorineGateway, FluorineFx"/>

not

<add name="FluorineGateway" type="com.TheSilentGroup.Fluorine.FluorineGateway,com.TheSilentGroup.Fluorine" />

Since the app isn’t at TheSilentGroup.com anymore, I figured the wizard version is newer/correct.
Anyway if I use the version from the tutorial I get an error:
Error opening URL "http://localhost/FluorineTest2/Gateway.aspx"

The second time I tried just creating a regular ASP.NET Web Site (named "FluorineTest2")
and manually adding the web.config section and Gateway.aspx, like in the tutorial.

I got past a couple of errors on my own which I will describe, but have hit a third error that I can’t seem to figure out.

ERROR #1:
When I tried running the Flash movie in MX2004 I got an error
"Unrecognized attribute ‘requirePermission’".
It turned out the "FluorineTest1" web site was set to .net 1.1 in IIS
(I didn’t see this error when I created a regular site w/o the template – a problem with their template?)
so I changed it to 2.0 and the error went away.
To do this:

open IIS
open the properties for the virtual directory
goto the ASP.NET tab
change ASP.NET version dropdown to 2.0

ERROR #2:
However now Flash was displaying an error:
"It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition=’MachineToApplication’".
It turned out the "FluorineTest1" was not set up as an application in IIS.
I changed it to an application and the error went away.
To do this:

open IIS
Right click on the virtual directory & click Properties
goto the Directory tab
under Application Settings, next to "Application name", click the [Create] button
(if it says [Remove] then the virual directory is already an application)

ERROR #3:
But now when I ran the Flash movie, I saw the message "There has been an error".
To get some more info I changed handleError to print the message:

function handleError(fe:FaultEvent)
{
trace(‘ERROR: ‘ + fe.fault.faultstring);
}

which returns

ERROR: Failed to locate the requested type FluorineTest.HelloWorld

Can anyone see what I might be doing wrong?

Much appreciated!
