Author newbie having problems

Hi,

I'm very new to FlashComm and am having a slight problem. I have the
server installed locally for development/testing and have worked through
the first exercise in the O'reilly Flash Communication Server book
[Brian Lesser et al]. This initially works well and I can get 4
instances of myself video conferncing on my desktop, I can also
disconnect and reconnect without problem for an initial amount of time.
After a while though, I can't reconnect and get the connection error
"undefined Connection closed." Is this just a timeout feature of Flash
Comm server or am I missing something?

TIA

Mart

It looks like you might be going over your flashcom license's limit
(bandwidth or connections). Let me guess, it starts working again after 5
minutes of inactivity?

This is the case and it is the demo version, could this be the reason?

Yup. Nothing wrong with your app then (except maybe turn the video off if
you want it to use less bw...)

you will find that the components do no properly release the
connections that they open. You can actually fix them by modifying the
component actionscript.

It is not very difficult, but you could screw something up - make a
backup first and then give it a try:

--

in avpresence.asc

at the end of startPublish() add this line:
av_so.close();

at the end of stopPublish() add this line:
av_so.close();


in videoconference.asc

in FCVideoConference():
comment out the line that creates the SharedObject

at the start of connect() add this line:
var users_so = SharedObject.get(this.prefix + "users", false);

in the connect function all references to users_so are thus changed to
the local var

at the end of connect() add this line:
users_so.close(); // dkc

at the start of close() add this line:
var users_so = SharedObject.get(this.prefix + "users", false);

in the close function all references to users_so are thus changed to
the local var

at the end of close() add this line:
users_so.close(); // dkc

--

to my knowledge other components have similar problems, and can be
similarly fixed: people.asc whiteboard.asc ... maybe more

Is this the punishment for going over the limit? It shuts you down for
5 minutes? Thats not very nice.

Yes.. no new connections until 5 minutes has elapsed whereby during that
time the bandwidth is maintained BELOW 250kb/s.. even though the license
limits bandwidth by design, I recall being able to have a couple
connections and still exceed that 250kb/s limit.. but no new connections
until 5 minutes elapsed with the BW avg. below the limit.
