Newbie AMFPHP Hello World Help

[Adam Bell]

I just got AMFPHP installed on my hosts' server and so I figured I'd try doing something with the basic Hello World sample here on Flash-DB. So I downloaded the files, and uploaded them onto the server after I created a .swf and .html file as well. Followed the instructions to the letter but when I tested it, nothing worked. No Hello World.

Now, being a total newbie to this, I was wondering if I needed to change this code in the hello.fla file:

NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://localhost/Hello/gateway.php");

to

NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://www.localhost.com/Hello/gateway.php");

or the IP Address, which I don't know yet. Since all the examples I see on remoting use localhost, I wondered if maybe that's where I went wrong. Is it?

You need to change to the domain of your server. I.e if your server have a domain "myDomain.com", and your movie is in the folder "myFolder", you should do:

NetServices.setDefaultGatewayUrl("http://www.myDomain.com/myFolder/gateway.php");

Also you need to change gateway.php accordingly to your folder structure and where flashservices and services folder are.
