Comments on: Uploading files in Flex using the FileReference class http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/09/21/uploading-files-in-flex-using-the-filereference-class/ A bunch of examples for Adobe Flex and ActionScript Tue, 06 Jan 2009 02:05:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.1 By: Sclark http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/09/21/uploading-files-in-flex-using-the-filereference-class/#comment-17424 Sclark Sun, 21 Dec 2008 05:07:10 +0000 http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/09/21/uploading-files-in-flex-using-the-filereference-class/#comment-17424 Hey there, I have been trying to get a demo working of our fileuploadservlet. The servlet doesn't do much at this point, and it's running with standalone oc4j locally on my windows xp system. I'm using the flex code as documented. I use a filefilter to get only csv files and I have a small test file. The problem is the second I hit upload, I get the io error: Error #2044: Unhandled uploadIoError:. text=Error #2038: File I/O I put some alert messages in and it appears this is happening before the upload has a chance to start. I event tried a different unix test server with an upload.php file (which I've pinged via browser and it responds) and still the same error. My company uses a proxy so I've removed that (working from home, no firewall). No change. I have strong listeners (not weak). I've added some variables to the URLVariables, but that's it. It's pretty plain vanilla, but it's not playing nice. This is on Windows XP. So the first scenario was all local - localhost, etc. The second scenrio was on another server I pay for...on unix that supports php and still the same immediate io error. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Spencer Hey there,

So, here my prob: I'm using the aspx and I'll say it's working. I set all the events I need but in that special case the httpStatusEvent says nothing, only the openEvent stucks on [Event type="open" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2] progress bar says it's ready but there is no file in the directory (and yeah I set allready all the rights to that spec. dir.) Somebody an idea? thanks a lot. jimmi greets,

You may want to try asking on the <a href="http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/" rel="nofollow"><u>FlexCoders mailing list</u></a> and see if anybody there has any suggestions. Sorry, Peter Ronny,

Is there a way for flex to do this on the client side so I don't have to uploade 20mb and then resize it. Help or an example is preciated.

Once the user is happy with a video the app uploads the flv to a Windows server. It works fine for short videos (small files), but when the file size is larger (I don't know the threshold) it does not work anymore. Do you know how to allow the app. or the asp.net script to work with large files? Thanks. I am working on an AIR app. that records videos, using RED5.

I tried a lot of hacks (crossdomain.xml, Security.allowDomain, eg) but this error, everytime appears. But the funny thing is, that the upload is complete, but i didn't get any data from the server, that gives succes. Locally with localhost everything works finest.
