For those of you that have had tons of trouble getting ColdFusion remoting to work with the latest Flex 2 Beta 2. I think I have found the answer for you. Despite numerous complete uninstalls of both products and even a registry cleaning of many keys containing 'Flex', I still was unable to get Remoting to work on my home machine. However, installing on my clean work machine worked flawlessly. Well, I have reverse engineered the problem down to the web.xml file located in the WEB-INF folder of ColdFusion. For whatever reason (I suspect an old Flex Enterprise Services install) the new software will not add a few critical lines to the web.xml file. Anyways, here is a copy of my web.xml file, the missing lines were in a 'servlet' and 'servlet mapping' that both deal with the MessageBrokerServlet and the flex2gateway.

What was the behavior or error that would occur if you are affected by this issue?

I didnt write down the error, but in flex an error would pop up that mentioned an http connection error. Watching the CF output window I could see that CF was throwing an error trying to find 'flex2gateway'.

Not sure if it's same problem but Ben Forta covered this a couple of days ago on his blog

It appears to be somewhat different, I was following that thread as well. His involves the other xml file.

Before using your web.xml file I was getting the following error:

Error: faultCode:Client.Error.MessageSend faultString:'Send failed' faultDetail:'Channel.Connect.Failed error NetConnection.Call.Failed: HTTP: Status 404'

Now it works! Thanks!

Another flex2gateway issue.

A restart of Apache after a 7.02 update of CFMX is required in order for the /flex2gateway/ to be found.

Flex projects running on the server were failing. The issue was that /flex2gateway/ was not found on the server. A simple restart of Apache fixed the issue.

When I put this in my browsers http://dev.lightology.com/flex2gateway I am getting a page cannot be displayed. This was working before.

Can someone point me in the right direction on how to fix this issue?

My Flex 2 apps weren't even compiling until I used your web.xml, but now they are. However, my flex2gateway still isn't working. But thanks for getting me further.

I also get the 500 Internal no page found error.
