macromedia flash flash remoting: I have had success using flash remoting with both beans and servlets on Tomcat 5.0 running on Linux. However, I have not been able to interact with a servlet when the web app is at the root context of a virtual host:

<Host name="www.myhost.com" ...>
<Context path="" docBase="www" ...>

I'm assuming the ActionScript for this should be...

NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://www.myhost.com/gateway");
serviceConnection = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();
testService = serviceConnection.getService( "", this );

....but I may be wrong and haven't been able to find specific documentation. When I set things up as above I get a peculiar stack trace that starts with "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/ejb/EJBHome at flashgateway.adapter.java.EJBAdapter". It makes no sense because under the same service, engine, and host, with only the addition of a subdirectory context...

<Context path="/mycontext" docBase="www" ...>

and

NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://www.myhost.com/mycontext/gateway");
serviceConnection = NetServices.createGatewayConnection();
testService = serviceConnection.getService( "mycontext", this );

....it works fine! I have been testing this for hours with all sorts of permutations, and it just won't work at the root level. And yes, I have confirmed that everything is fine with my Tomcat configuration. Is this a bug in the flashgateway, or is there some other syntax for the getService() function when the context is root?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Are you using Macromedia's Flash Gateway or the OpenAMF gateway?
