Guys,    Unfortunately the Weatherunderground has placed a tightly controlled crossdomain.xml on thier server which prevents the connection of a flex app that is not in the list. I have been considering a proxy work around but I am afraid this widget will have to be retired. They must have recently made this change, as the widget was working a few days ago.  It was driving me crazy trying to get it to run - usually with no issues.  Robert, if you can get it to work with a proxy, I would certainly use it, I think it is a great resource to have from the interactive map perspective.  Not a GIS tool, but certainly a nice feature. Thanks to both of you for the replies. Chris ... View more

Did you ever find a solution for this error.  My situation is similiar, using python script from a model, and trying to run the Collect Event geoprocess.  Just upgraded to ARCGIS 10.0 SP 4. Thanks. ... View more

I have not found a solution for this...yet.  If I find anything, I will be sure to update this post. Thanks, Chris ... View more

That was it.  I didn't copy over the custom splash mxml and did not add it to my flex modules.  The config file was looking for the module and the error was associated to that. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Robert! ... View more

Robert, Thanks, I will give that a try.  I'll follow up once I get a solution or stuck again... Chris,    Error 2036 means a file failed to load. so to diagnose this you can download a HTTP util like fidler and see which one is the culprit or just comment out widgets one at a time in the main config.xml and see which one is the one causing the issue. ...

I was able to make this work using the link forum link I posted in the thread above - I was just missing one line of code.  The only downside, is that ALL layers are expanded or none are expaned - there is no control over which layers are expanded. Hope it helps someone else looking for this solution. ... View more

Well, the site is finally working on line.  Thanks for all that helped us get there, especially Robert.  Patience is a virtue. Anyway, I promised to sum my findings; hopefully others won't have to go through the various trial and error scenarios I did. The following are what I think are the key components: 1.  ESRI TECHNICAL ARTICLE 35948 Follow the ESRI technical article 35948 to set up ArcGIS server: http://resources.arcgis.com/content/kbase?fa=articleShow&d=35948   -this will provide the guidance to configure the ArcGIS server and Apache 2.  HTTPD.CONF file A.  Use the internal server IP in the httpd.conf file B.  Add both to the httpd.conf (these are from the ESI tech article):       -ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse       -ProxyPassMatch and ProxyPassReverse C.  Add this line in the httpd.conf, not referenced in the ESRI tech article:       -ProxyPass / http://internal server IP/ 3.  CROSSDOMAIN: Place the crossdomain.xml in the wwroot folder of the internal server (the ArcGGIS Server) and in the external server (reverse proxy) program files -> Apache folder -> htdocs folder. 4.  FLEX XML FILESThe config.xml file (and any other xml file referencing rest end points) must use the qualified domain name, plus port to access the rest end points.  For example:  http://qualified domain name:80/ArcGIS/rest/services/etc..... 5.  IT SUPPORT Help your IT support fully understand the flex architecture.  For example, the flex data will not be visible inside the firewall, because the rest points are being routed by the reverse proxy IP - back to the internal server.  This can only be tested from a browser outside the firewall.  Alos, ensure Apache is installed correctly, this was one of our first road blocks.  Test using ESRI's tech article example. I hope this helps anyone trying to deploy a flex site on the internet.  Any questions, don't hesitate to email me.  I am not an expert, but I may know the proper steps to problem solve. ...

OK, I am going off of the httpd.conf subject for a moment... Back to the config.xml - although this may have been answered already - please forgive me if it has, but I need to verify. Does the rest end point need to have the proxy server in is http path? http://proxy server IP/ArcGIS/rest/services/GISBaseMap_web_city/MapServer If yes, should it be the INTERNAL or EXTERNAL IP address of the proxy server? ...

Robert, Below are the complete rules for the httpd.conf file.  I was trying to exaplain that my rule to open and run the flex application is not working.  By adding the rule (the one I posted in the last thread) to the httpd.conf file, I am no longer able to access my rest-end points.  My goal here is to identify what I need to do to acess my flex application - it opens, but data is not displayed.
