failing to download flash player stand alone.

[jonathan]

Hello,
My name is Jonathan, and I would like to say that this is a great
project, I was pretty floored when i saw the demo, this is just what I
needed! And I hope to contribute soon!

First of all, I have macbook, 10.4.9, used MacPorts to install ruby,
ruby gems, very smooth.

Ok, i created a project, then ran rake, and received this:

Fetching http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/9/sa_flashplayer_9_all_debug_ub.dmg
into /Users/mute/Library/AsProject/downloads/flash_player-8/
sa_flashplayer_9_all_debug_ub.dmg now!
..#<Net::HTTPNotFound:0x14424c8>
rake aborted!
404 "Not Found"

so I checked the URL, its broke. So, the next thing I look for
another UB from adobe. This is what i found:

http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/9/sa_flashplayer_9_debug.app.zip

So, after a bit, I found the flash_player.rb file, in /opt/local/lib/
ruby/gems/1.8/gems/asproject-0.1.92/lib/tasks
and commented out the bad url, and replaced it with the one I found.
So I tried again, and it went through, downloaded the zip file. and
continued, but i got this:

Warning, was unable to update the FlashPlayerTrust file
sh: line 1: /Users/mute/Library/AsProject/downloads/flash_player-8/
Flash Player.app/Contents/MacOS/standalone: No such file or directory

Oh btw, when i run 'asclass --help' i get this:

/opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/asproject-0.1.92/bin/asclass:
14:Warning: require_gem is obsolete. Use gem instead.

any ideas?

Wow,

This is pretty thorough. I wonder if Adobe moved the urls on me!

I'll take a look as soon as I can and try to get a fix pushed out.


Thanks for the info Jonathan!

Hey Folks,

As it turns out, the URLs did change with a new revision of the Flash 9 Player.

I have been in contact directly with the player team at Adobe and they were extremely helpful!

I expect to get a release out in the next few days that will address the issue.


Thanks,
