Working in Flex Builder 2...I tood the recommended upgrade from 9,0,45,0 to
current 9,0,47,0.

Attempting to debug I get:

Installed Flash Player is Not a Debugger. Flex Builder cannot locate the
required debug version of the Flash Player. You may need to install the debug
version of the Flash Player 9.0 or reinstall Flex Builder. Do you want to try
to debug with the current version?"

Now FB2 debugging is broke. Perhaps this latest doesn't include a
debugger...when I right click 'Debugger' is not listed. However, and more
disturbing....some projects that ran fine and no reaching the same conclusions
as under ,45,.

I'm finding little to no info about this elsewhere...anyone come up against
this yet?

Hi Steve,

Adobe Flash Player 9 ? Debugger Versions (aka debug players or content
debuggers) for Flex and Flash Developers
7/10/2007 Updated debugger versions of Flash Player 9 (aka debug players or
content debuggers) are available for Flex Builder 2 users and Flash CS3
Professional users. These new players are version 9.0.r47 and 9.0.r48 (Linux).

After my earlier problems with debugging in flex i reverted to r28, by running
the installer in Flex Builder 2's player folder. Debugged worked.

Upon this message I re-visited the page, reinstalled r47 and, once again,
debugging's broke in flex. (I haven't used the debugger in Flash before but
when I test a file (trace works ok), and right click the 'debugger' menu item
is greyed out.)

The file the dialog says it can't find _does exist:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\FlashNPSWF32.dll

File properties describe it as: Shockwave Flash 9.0 r47 - Other version info:
Item name - debugger : value = 0.

So what next?

many thankx

We have just ran into the same problem. The latest Flash Player 9 Plugin (
content debugger ) 9.0.r47 ( Windows ) does not work with Flex Builder 2. I
uninstalled the old plugin before installing the new version just to make sure
it was updating correctly.

Any chance we could have a fix for this ASAP because it is having an impact on
development, we have had to revert to the debugger plugin located in the "Flex
Builder 2\Player\debug\" directory which obviously isn't ideal.
