Publish service in ArcGIS Server 10...do I need Flex 2.0?

I have just published a map service using ArcGIS Server 10.0. I am not able to see this service when I build a flex project with references to this map service (I am using ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer). Do I need to install the Flex 2.0 api in order to see this newly published service?

ArcGIS Server's REST API is backwards compatible, so you can user version 1.x of the ArcGIS API for Flex with ArcGIS Server 10.

Michael,

No you don't need the 2.0 API to view a ArcGIS Server 10 Map Service. Check you REST Services directory and see if you can export the map and get an image, see if you can open the map using ArcGIS.com or javascript link. You can also use fiddler or charles to see if the requests for the map are being successfully made (as Dasa normally suggests).
