Configuring Security Settings for Your Local Flash Player

Before you launch an Apache Flex application, that runs as a local application, for the first time, you must configure security settings for your local Flash Player. You must modify the Adobe specific security settings to enable the local application access to the file system.

To configure the security settings for your local Flash player:

  1. Open the Flex Security Settings Page by clicking Flash Player Security Manager on http://demo.borland.com/flex/SilkTest20.0/index.html.
  2. Click Always allow.
  3. In the Edit Locations menu, click Add Location.
  4. Click Browse for folder and navigate to the folder where your local application is installed.
  5. Click Confirm and then close the browser.
