As the potential audience for FlexFM ranges from FileMaker developers who have never used Eclipse or Flex before to Flex developers who have never used FileMaker Server before, we have created a series of step-by-step tutorials. We have oriented them in two sections geared for developers coming from one technology or the other. The first two sections converge with the step-by-step creation of a FlexFM application.
Note: These tutorials are geared toward setting up a development environment. Additional steps and considerations are required for production environments. These suggestions are provided as quick-start guidelines only.
Caution: As with any software installation, it is possible to run into unforeseen problems. Make sure you backup before you begin. FlexFM and the accompanying instructions and example files are provided “as is” with no support or warranty implied.

hello,
i’m french
my server fmp is not on localhost
i try this :
but i have an error
1120: Accès à la propriété non définie find.
text=’{find.Request.query}’
An idea ?
Thx
Sorry I missed your comment when you posted it.
1120 is not a FileMaker error, and in my poor grasp of French, it looks like you are getting a Compiler error because you are trying to access an undefined property. Assuming your FMRequest id=”find”, try this instead {find.lastResult.records}
I’m linking to the forum, where I just pasted this thread. Please use the forum for this kind of support issue. Thanks!

I am unable to get any of the sample Flex applications to connect to my Filemaker Server and return data, my Web Publishing Engine is not on localhost but a networked machine. I was able to return data running the FMServer_Sample data application on my machince but none of the Snippit files are working. I’ve changed all of the server addresses that I can see. Is there something else preventing me from returning Filemaker data when the Flex application is inside my webserver?
You might be seeing the security sandbox restriction. Google for crossdomain.xml to see how to create a policy file that will allow the Flash Player to fetch data from a foreign server.
Looks like all your How To’s talk about Flex 2 and FMS 9. Does FlexFM support Flex 3 and FMS 10? Also, I noticed that there is a Flex 3 Pro. It seems like Pro is required to do any fancy charts, graphs and dashboards. Is that true?
Judging from the dates on all the other blogs on this site I must be talking to a vacuum. I guess I can also assume that FlexFM is but a glimmer in the eye of some long ago retired and forgotten .com web developer. If, perchance, some other lost soul in search of Flex-Flash-FileMaker data exchange happens this way, it would be greatly appreciated if you might offer alternative suggestions on how I might find my way to enlightenment.
