Flex tutorial - what am I doing wrong?

Hi all -

1. I create HelloWorld.mxml and HelloWorld-app.xml (directly cutting and pasting from the tutorial page)

2. I successfully compile using "amxmlc HelloWorld.mxml"

3. I try to run "adl HelloWorld-app.xml" and I get "error while loading initial content"

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Dave

oops. my apologies if I posted to the wrong list. I thought the question belonged here since I am just using the Flex SDK.
Per your suggestion, I'll post over on the other list. Thanks.

Dave

Posting to the SDK Developer list :)

You want FlexCoders, which is a list for questions about using flex. This list is for discussion about working on the SDK itself.
