macromedia flash flash remoting: hey guys, I'm new to dynamic data in flash. so I downloaded this guys files to
try out.
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/coldfusion/articles/beginner_ws.html

I have everything installed and in the correct places. The coldfusion stuff
works on its own, but when I try the flash interface no data appears. I've
also done a version of my own stuff using the same rules that also works as
just cfm but not with flash, can anyone help me please.?

I noticed the article doesn't refer to the fact (on my quick read) that you
need to enable webservices on versions of Coldfusion service pack 3 6.0 or
later (you probably have 6.1, the current CF version)

Webservices work in a browser connected to localhost, as you found, but fail
in Flash. This is a common symptom.

To enable webservices etc to Flash:

1. edit web.xml in C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF (or wherever you put it)
2. Look for :
<param-name>DISABLE_CFWS_ADAPTERS</param-name>
3. In the line below it, change true to false.
4. Restart your machine / restart Coldfusion.
