Tip#34

I got the following error from Flex 2 when debugging.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9d.ocx

Flex Builder cannot locate the required debug version of the Flash Player. You may need to install the debug version of Flash Player 9.0 or reinstall Flex Builder. Do you want to try to debug with the current version?

I’m not sure why the problem occured but I had recently installed flash 8 as well as both Firefox and IE7 so it was possibly any of the above. To resolve it uninstall flash and then run ‘Install Flash Player 9 AX.exe’ which you will find in the player folder of your flex installation. For example mine is located at the following address.

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 2\Player\debug

Running this should re-install a debugging version of the flash player and hopefully resolve the problem.

If anything is unclear or just plain wrong let us know and should ammend it pretty sharpish. If you visited the page with a particular question leave it and if it's flash related I'll try to answer it.
