Flex-built SWF's no longer work, error 2048, 2046, 2032

Question

I'm really confused about this problem, and I'm pretty new to Flex. Basically, anything I try to build with mxmlc fails to run now, giving me the above three errors depending on what I do. It was working 30 minutes ago, I've been spending that time trying to figure out what has changed. I redownloaded the Flex SDK, cleared my assetcache, have cleared Firefox's cache. (I'm using Linux.) Even if I compile with -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=false, since it seems like #2048 is a RSL problem, it still refuses to run.

Another strange thing, if I keep

<policy-file-url>http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/swz/crossdomain.xml&lt;/policy-file-url&gt;
<rsl-url>textLayout_1.0.0.595.swz</rsl-url>

in my flex-config file, then firebug tells me that my swf file is trying to access a copy of that in the app's folder, giving error 2032. And if I stick the one I have in frameworks/rsls/ then it gives me error 2046. I don't know how it could not be properly signed, unless Adobe magically changed a signature and didn't update their flex SDK.

Any help will be appreciated.

Okay, more weirdness. Simply restarting Firefox seems to have allowed the applications to work again. Facepalm

Answer 2

On Linux I sometimes get these errors. It seems that the Flash Player cache sometimes get corrupt. When I delete the asset cache I then have to reboot in order for things to work again. Not fun. I filed a bug a while back but without having a consistent way to recreate the corruption I can't help them reproduce the issue. Please file a bug if you have a consistent way to reproduce the issue.

Today I experienced that problem in one browser but not in other. I have Ubuntu 10.04 and in google chrome 6 I received error #2046. In FireFox and Opera everything worked well. The problem has been solved when I reloaded my chrome browser.
