My hosting service says they've set up Flash Remoting correctly, but I can't
get it to work. Any ideas?

I've used Adobe's devCenter tutorial, but HostMySite says the code won't work
on CF 7.0 so then I downloaded and installed the realEstate tutorial which is
designed for CF 7.0 - still doesn't work (I get a 'waiting for response'
message-nothing happens).

Any ideas? Is there another, very simple way to test the flash remoting
gateway AND get error messages?

Thanks!

Hi I'm having a very similar issue. You may first want to ask them to give you
the exact URL of the flash services gateway....depending on the CF version they
may have it going though port 8300 instead of 8500 (jrun4).

The hosting company gave me the remoting flash services URL, but when I go to
use it it never seems to find the CFC service. I've tried everything, but it
seems as though the CFC should be accessible from your root...plus a "dot" for
each directory you go down. So <a target=_blank
class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge
href="http://www.myspace.com/myflash/components/test.cfc">http://www.myspace.com
/myflash/components/test.cfc</a> should be accessible from
myflash.components.test but it never works. Hope someone else joins in the
discussion on this.

I use flash remoting with hostmysite with no problems - but they do have to
have it set up correctly. If you want to make sure the gateway is actually
working correctly, use the webservices panel (CTRL+SHIFT+F10). If it can
connect and show all the component functions then you are good to go, and your
problem is within your code.
