In fact for the java.io.EOFException avec flex 4, you don’t need to indicate the port and the error desappear and you can connect to your server and enjoy !!

Bonne chance

re: Channel disconnected error… I too was getting this error, and couldn’t figure it out as I was letting FlashBuilder generate all of the PHP service code. I am on Windows and using WAMP.

I discovered if I left the port blank while setting up the service I would get the ‘channel disconnected’ error. I changed the following line in the generated php service
var $port = “”;
to
var $port = “3306″;

and it works fine.

Hope this helps.

Hi! Thanks for great tutorial.

I manage to connect with PHP and send data on my localhost (WAMP) server. When i move my application to remote web server, there is an error running app.

Send failed Channel.Connect.Failed error NetConnection.Call.BadVersion: : url: ‘http://www.prvaliga.net/phpTest/bin-debug/gateway.php’

Live demo on http://www.prvaliga.net/phpTest/bin-debug/phpTest.html

Where should i change web root, paths and urls? Thanks in advice

You need to change the PHP script - instead of SELECT * FROM, write SELECT lastname FROM … then refresh in FB4.

Hello!! great tutorial I love it, a lot of thanks.

I have only one question, I want to take only the field “lastname” from the object that I receive, how can I do it?

Thanks.

it also gives me Channel disconnected error. I’m on win (WAMP). I also tried to just configure new Data Services (without any changes in PHP), made new Button and added On Click function btnSearch_clickHandler(event) that assigns protected function btnSearch_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
{
getAllEmployeesResult.token = employeesService.getAllEmployees();
}

still getting the error… does anybody know why?

Hey there,
did the Channel disconnected error ever get resolved? Does anyone know why does it happen?

Thanks.

To tell you the truth, I have tried many examples online and I have always met a brick wall but this works with a small glitch. I am using the completed version of flash builder 4 so there are some changes. When you run the app, I expect that it would fetch all the employees from the database but i don’t seem to get that on start up. I suppose the creationcomplete event of the app is supposed to call getAllEmloyees method without any parameter returning all the result. So I tried to modify the code to do that.

Then in the script block

protected function initApp():void
{
getAllEmployeesResult.token = employeesService.getAllEmployees();

}

I expected this to fix it but somehow its not doing that. But if you do not entere= any data into the textinput and you hit search you get all the employee data back.I guess I’d have to look at it again. This is a great starting point though.

Thanks. Nice work.

I have the same problem as well.

java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 500

When I use Windows Apache PHP Zend MySQL everything it runs ok, but when I put the project in the production server (iis) I’ve received:

Send failed
Channel.Security.Error error Error #2048 url: ‘http://www.mydomain.com.br/ph/TestePHP-debug/gateway.php’
