Question About CFFormGateway

I'm testing an upgrade to CF11.  Everything is working except my flash form.  When I check the web.xml file, the CFFormGateway servlet mapping is commented out as well as the CFFormGateway filter-mapping.  The CFFormGateway servlet description indicates that this servlet "allows flash forms to connect to CFML and CFC templates".

I found references to a possible work-around created by Josh Koop with the HouseofFusion but can't find details about that possible solution; especially since HoF is defunct.

I've checked and verified the necessary .js, .cfm, and .swc files are in the CFIDE directory.  I've also verified there is a specified height and width indicated within the cfform tag.

Will un-commenting the CFFormGateway servlet and filter resolve this issue with the cfform format="flash"?

The pages render but a 404 error - file or directory not found - message is what is actually being displayed.

Under the current version, the cfform successfully renders.

Sorry about the late response; I have only just seen your thread.

Someone must have commented them out. In a default ColdFusion 11 installation, they are not commented out.

I suspect uncommenting the CFFormGateway settings will resolve the issue. There is only one way to find out.
