Webmaster Forum / Flash / Flash Remoting / December 2003

I am new to the flash remoting arena and have some questions:

I have some a few .cfc files with the flash interfaces in my root folder.
Of course the page pulls up but can't connect to the data.

I keep getting the error in the flash debugger as follows:
Status (object #2)
.....code: "NetConnection.Call.Failed"
.....description: "HTTP: Failed"
.....details: "http://127.0.0.1:8500/flashservices/gateway"
.....level: "error"

Why can't I get through?
How do I determine the port if any?
With or without it doesn't connect.

Can I use coldfusion 4.5 with flashremoting mx?

Please help...
